Oilers Looking to Tie NHL Record for Win Streak
The Oilers have vaulted up the NHL standings with their 16-game winning streak and essentially erased what was an incredibly disappointing start. They’re third in the Pacific Division and just five points back of the Golden Knights with five games in hand. They’re among the NHL picks to win the Stanley Cup, especially considering the improved defensive zone play and the play of Skinner, who hasn’t allowed more than two goals in a game since December 22 against the New York Rangers.
Edmonton fourth in NHL stats for goals (3.51) and eighth in goals allowed (2.76). They’re second in shots on goal per game (33.8) and third in shots allowed (28.0). Connor McDavid leads the team in NHL player stats with 67 points (20 goals, 47 assists) and Leon Draisaitl is second with 57 points (23 goals, 34 assists). Zach Hyman leads the team with 30 goals.
Hill Has Stabilized the Golden Knights’ Goaltending
Vegas had major issues between the pipes in late December and January as both Hill and backup Logan Thompson dealt with injuries. However, Hill’s return from injury has certainly made the Vegas Golden Knights schedule look better – he is 2-0 since returning and has stopped 76 of 80 shots faced.
Vegas is 6-3-1 in its last 10 games and 18-5-2 at home this season. Mark Stone leads the team in scoring with 49 points (15 goals, 34 assists) and Jack Eichel is second with 44 points (19 goals, 25 assists), but is on the NHL injury report with a knee injury. Vegas is also without Shea Theodore, William Carrier, and Ben Hutton.
