Vancouver has a handful of guys out injured -- 2021 leading scorer Brock Boeser is on injured reserve and in theory could be activated ... but I doubt it. Oilers winger Ryan Nugent-Hopkins was in doubt Monday with an illness but cleared Tuesday and practiced. In 10 games last year vs. Vancouver, Edmonton's Connor McDavid, the reigning Hart Trophy winner, had 22 points and Leon Draisaitl 19. The Oilers likely can't wait to play a game that counts after their shocking first-round playoff sweep vs. Winnipeg.
