After a difficult start to the season, the Oilers are back on the right track. Kris Knoblauch’s men are third in the Pacific Division with a record of 24-12-3 after 39 games. They had as many points as the Los Angeles Kings, but played one more game than their California rivals.
To explain the team’s good performance, we have to look to the big guns. Forward Leon Draisaitl is having an exceptional season with 29 goals, an NHL high. He also leads the Oilers with 59 points, five more than Connor McDavid.
The Bruins will have to keep an eye on them, especially since the team is not having a good start to the season defensively. The -20 differential is the worst among all teams currently in a playoff spot.
It starts with goaltender Jeremy Swayman, who has only stopped 89.1% of pucks aimed at him since the start of the campaign. Remember that he signed a long-term agreement with the team on the first day of the season.
- After this duel, TVA Sports will present the match between the surprising Calgary Flames and the Anaheim Ducks. The meeting will begin at 10 p.m.
