What's RIGHT with the Oilers? Plenty, but let's start with four cornerstone players These are heady days for the Edmonton Oilers and their growing band of followers around the hockey world. The Oil are laying waste to the 21...
Stuart Skinner - Guarding cage Tuesday Skinner will be between the pipes for Tuesday's road game versus the Kings, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Impact Skinner's last start was a shutout win over the Kings last Thursday. He made 43 saves in that contest, so he'll likely need his defense to be a little tighter to produce a similar result on the road.

Ryan McLeod - Won't suit up Tuesday McLeod (upper body) won't play Tuesday versus the Kings.
Impact McLeod will miss his 10th straight game, though head coach Jay Woodcroft didn't address the forward's status beyond Tuesday. The Oilers play again Wednesday in Anaheim.

Stuart Skinner - Sharp again in win Skinner stopped 20 of 21 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
Impact In a likely first-round playoff matchup preview, Skinner has shown he has the Kings' number. He's stropped 63 of 64 shots against them in his last two starts, winning both outings. The 24-year-old is up to 26-14-5 with a 2.84 GAA and a .911 save percentage through 47 games this season. Jack Campbell is likely to start Wednesday against the Ducks, but Skinner should draw a favorable matchup against the Sharks on Saturday.

Leon Draisaitl - Powers offense in win Draisaitl scored a power-play goal on two shots, logged two assists and added three hits.
Impact Draisaitl's first assist also came on the power play, and his second helper was on Darnell Nurse's empty-netter to seal the win. The 27-year-old Draisaitl is hitting his stride at the right time, collecting 11 goals and 16 assists during his active 13-game point streak. The German superstar has 51 tallies, 123 points, 240 shots, 64 hits and a plus-6 rating through 76 contests overall in another stellar campaign.

Darnell Nurse - Puts away empty-netter Nurse scored an empty-net goal and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
Impact Nurse helped secure the win for the Oilers with his fourth goal in the last five games. The 28-year-old blueliner has benefited from the Oilers' league-leading offense in a career year with 12 goals and 43 points through 78 outings. He's added 192 shots on net, 155 blocked shots, 137 hits, 64 PIM and a plus-21 rating.
APRIL 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins - One of each on power play Nugent-Hopkins scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
Impact Nugent-Hopkins opened the scoring midway through the second period and also helped out on Leon Draisaitl's go-ahead marker in the third. The two-point game was Nugent-Hopkins' seventh multi-point outing over his last 12 contests. He's up to 36 tallies, 63 helpers, 52 power-play points, 191 shots on net and a plus-8 rating through 78 games this season.
APRIL 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Connor McDavid - Point streak at 12 games McDavid notched a power-play assist, three shots on goal and five hits in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
Impact During his 12-game point streak, McDavid has eight goals and 15 helpers, including 11 power-play points. The 26-year-old is up to 62 goals, 85 assists, 330 shots on net, 89 hits, a plus-18 rating and 36 PIM through 78 contests overall. He'd need three points over the last four games of the campaign to reach 150 for the season, a mark that seems nearly inevitable for the league's top scorer.
APRIL 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Evan Bouchard - Reaches 30-assist mark Bouchard notched a power-play assist in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
Impact Bouchard has collected three goals and 12 assists over his last 15 contests. He helped out on a Ryan Nugent-Hopkins tally in the second period of Tuesday's win. Bouchard is up to six goals, 30 helpers, 151 shots on net, 93 hits, 68 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 78 appearances.
