Nugent-Hopkins scored just his second five-on-five point of the season away from Connor McDavid. It’s been an unusu

Edmonton Oilers veteran forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is beginning to show significant signs of struggle, and the team may be reaching the point where he needs to be demoted out of the top six.

But who’s manning his wings on any given shift can change wildly. Zach Hyman might be next to him, or all the way down on the third line trying to ignite things in order for Edmonton’s top-six into nine cylinders of offence. Yup, the reigning 54-goal scorer from a season ago spending significant time on the third line.

In 1979-80, the Oilers outscored the league average by 20 goals but surrendered 41 more goals than average. When the team won Stanley in 1984, Edmonton outscored the average by a stunning 130 goals, while also giving up two fewer goals than average.

After a thrilling come-from-behind victory on Tuesday, the Avalanche host the Edmonton Oilers in the second of a five-game homestand. This is the second of three meetings between the teams this season, as the Oilers won 4-1 in Denver on November 30, and they’ll play again in Edmonton on February 7.

In a wild track meet of a game, with Colorado scoring the first three goals, then Edmonton the next four, the Oilers won 4-3 in Denver on Thursday night. In total, the Grade A shots were 17 for the Oilers,

If Vancouver has eyes on a victory, they need a big game from J.T. Miller. The Canucks center has two goals in his last 18 games and has seen his ice time drop below 15 minutes a night. If Miller can channel his 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs form, he should have a positive impact on the game.
