  • 110-94-26 3rd Place
    • Takes loss despite light workload
      Saros permitted two goals on 12 shots in the 2-1 loss to the Canucks on Friday in Game 3.

      Advice: Nashville put up 30 shots to dominate possession in the attacking zone, but Saros ended up with the loss after the Canucks converted on two of three power-play opportunities. Saros didn't carry over any momentum from his 17-save performance in Nashville's 4-1 victory over Vancouver in Game 2 on Tuesday. Now faced with a 2-1 series deficit, Saros will look to shake off the most recent loss in time for a pivotal Game 4 matchup on Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 5:01 am
       
    • Strikes twice Friday
      Hyman scored two goals on four shots and added five hits in Friday's 6-1 win over the Kings in Game 3.

      Advice: Hyman opened the scoring at 6:42 of the first period and added a power-play marker in the third. The winger has six goals, one assist, 15 shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-2 rating over three playoff contests. Hyman continues to be a perfect fit on the top line and first power-play unit as he racks up big scoring numbers for the Oilers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:25 pm
       
    • Three-point effort in Game 3 win
      Draisaitl scored twice on four shots, added an assist, went plus-2, blocked two shots and logged two PIM in Friday's 6-1 win over the Kings in Game 3.

      Advice: Draisaitl's first goal was at even strength, while his other two points were on the power play. The 28-year-old has been in peak form with three goals, four helpers, 15 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through three playoff contests. With the Oilers leading the series 2-1, Draisaitl is likely to remain on the second line rather than moving up to play alongside Connor McDavid. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:22 pm
       
    • Steady in Game 3 win
      Skinner stopped 27 of 28 shots in Friday's 6-1 win over the Kings in Game 3.

      Advice: Skinner turned in the first good goaltending performance on either side in this series, though he also had plenty of support from his offense. He's allowed 10 goals on 91 shots through three games, but the Oilers have scored 17 times to establish a 2-1 series lead. Skinner continues to hold the starting job, and he'll look to strengthen Edmonton's position in Sunday's Game 4. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:20 pm
       
    • Tending twine Friday
      Skinner will get the starting nod for Game 3 in Los Angeles on Friday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

      Advice: Skinner has struggled so far this postseason, coughing up nine goals on 63 shots in two games. Including his final start of the regular season, he's gone 1-2-0 with an unsightly .829 save percentage over his last three outings. Skinner went 13-10-2 with an .894 save percentage and a 2.80 GAA in 27 road appearances during the regular season, so it'll be interesting to see how he'll perform in a hostile environment Friday.

    • Slated to start Friday
      Saros is on track to patrol the home crease versus Vancouver in Game 3 on Friday, Alex Daugherty of The Tennessean reports.

      Advice: Saros has gone 1-1 while allowing four goals on 38 shots through the first two games of the series. Saros had some ups and downs this season, winning 35 games while logging sub-par peripheral stats with a 2.86 GAA and a .906 save percentage. He'll continue to operate as a workhorse in goal for Nashville throughout its playoff run. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:18 am
       
    • Two more points in loss
      Draisaitl logged two assists (one on the power play), eight shots on net and two hits in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings in Game 2.

      Advice: Draisaitl set up goals by Brett Kulak and Zach Hyman in the contest. Three of Draisaitl's four points over two playoff games have come on the power play. He's added 11 shots on net, three blocked shots and a minus-1 rating. Draisaitl continues to center the second line, but the 28-year-old could eventually move to play alongside Connor McDavid if the Kings continue to have success, as the Oilers often put their best players together when playing from behind.

    • Scores on power play in loss
      Hyman scored a power-play goal on two shots and added three hits in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings in Game 2.

      Advice: Hyman has racked up four goals, one assist, eight hits and 11 shots on net through two playoff contests. His tally in the second period Wednesday tied the game at 3-3. After a 54-goal regular season, it's clear Hyman is dialed in as the finisher on the Oilers' top line while also serving as a strong net-front presence on the power play.

    • Yields five goals in loss
      Skinner allowed five goals on 26 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings in Game 2.

      Advice: Skinner is now 1-1 in the postseason, having allowed nine goals on 63 shots. He's given up at least four goals in three straight games, something he didn't do in the seven outings prior to his recent struggles. The Oilers will likely continue to roll with Skinner in goal, though it could be up to the offense to cover up his mistakes in a first-round series that has not been kind to the goalies so far. The next game is Friday in Los Angeles. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 11:13 pm
