The Edmonton Oilers have changed up their forward lines in the middle of a winning streak.
EDMONTON -- The Edmonton Oilers will pursue their 15th win in a row tonight against the Chicago Blackhawks at Rogers Place. This will be their third and final game against their Central Division opponent.
The Oilers made adjustments to their forward lines in the third period of the Columbus Blue Jackets game - and it looks like those changes will stick around for the start of the next game.
Leon Draisaitl will stick with Connor McDavid and Zach Hyman. Evander Kane, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Warren Foegele will construct the second line. It will be interesting to see how these new lines perform to start the game.
Leon Draisaitl.The Oilers played what was probably their worst 40 minutes of this entire streak last game. They are lucky to have won that game. Now the focus turns to the Blackhawks - who will not face their former teammate, Corey Perry.
Calvin Pickard is the projected starter for tonight's game.
