The Oilers are in Ottawa looking to quickly forget about their Saturday event in Calgary. Mike Smith is set to make his season debut in goal tonight. Can the Oilers score in bunches?

THREE THINGS TO LOOK FOR

  • Mike Smith is set to make his debut tonight. We haven’t seen him since August when he was unceremoniously pulled in the first game of the play-in series versus Chicago. The Oilers are looking for a solid effort tonight, can Smith put it together?
  • On the other side, Matt Murray has played two solid events after a rocky start to his season. Will Murray be able to keep the Oilers at bay after getting yanked in Edmonton his last time out?
  • Jesse Puljujärvi has scored three points in his last two games. Can he keep the red light on?

Let’s. Go. Oilers.
