The Edmonton Oilers get back on the ice tonight versus the Anaheim Ducks. Their 16 game win streak game to an end on Tuesday night versus the Vegas Golden Knights, one win away from tying the league record set by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the early nineties. Tonight, they get the chance to restart the streak against another divisional opponent.
The Oilers have handled the Ducks with ease so far this season. First was an 8-2 victory at Rogers Place in late November led by a five point game from Connor McDavid. The second game came on New Year’s Eve when the Oilers beat Anaheim 7-2 and on that night Warren Foegele finished with five points. Could we see that trend continue tonight?
To get your ready for the action, Tyler Yaremchuk and Liam Horrobin go live at noon on the Oilersnation YouTube channel for Oilersnation Everday. Since it’s a game day, today’s show is a Sherwood Ford GIANT Pre Game show which also means Jay Downton joins Tyler and Liam. If you have something you’d like to contribute to the show, head to the Charm Diamond Centres live chat on YouTube to leave your questions, comments and concerns.
Later in the show, former NHLer and now host of the Spittin Chichlets podcast, Ryan Whitney joins the program. With Whitney, the guys will discuss the Oilers win streak, areas of need for the trade deadline and what his expectations are for the remainder of the regular season.
You can expect all of that and more on today’s episode of Oilersnation Everyday.
