Jeff Skinner & Troy Stecher will come back in while Stuart Skinner will get the start on Thursday for Edmonton's second half of back-to-back games at Ball Arena against Colorado
Dallas needs Klingberg more than the Oilers. Their other three right-shot D — Matt Dumba, Ilya Lyubushkin and Nils Lundkvist — haven’t scored a goal all season long. He wants to play on a Cup contender and wherever he signs, he’s in audition mode for next season.
Edmonton Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch revealed that Jeff Skinner will remain a healthy scratch, and the team will use 11 forwards and 7 defence for today's game against the Los Angeles Kings.
Tonight is another key Pacific Division matchup with the Edmonton Oilers taking on the LA Kings. The Oilers sit 2 points up on the Kings for 2nd in the division but LA has two games in hand. A regulation win tonight for the Oilers helps to widen the gap between two teams that once again seem destined for a first round matchup.
