The Oilers look to get back into the win column after a disappointing loss to the Arizona Coyotes. The Sharks are in town, and they’ve had all sorts of trouble so far this year. Can the Oilers seal the deal?

THREE THINGS TO LOOK FOR

  • Tyler Benson gets his first game in Edmonton. The local product will tag along with Gaetan Haas and Alex Chiasson tonight, can he keep his head above water?
  • RIGHT BACK AT IT: Mikko Koskinen is back for the Oilers after a 3-0 loss to Arizona on Tuesday. Can he pick up a W tonight?
  • The Archibald-McDavid-Gagner combo is something I didn’t expect to see. Zack Kassian is on the third line with Jujhar Khaira and Riley Sheahan. Which ones of these lines can get it going?
