Oilers may literally score 12 goals next game with massive advantage
It's not easy for Jay goaltender to face the Edmonton Oilers. Even against elite goalies, the Oilers prolific offence led by McDavid and Draisaitl can tear good teams apart. Tomorrow night, the Oilers will face a struggling Arizona Coyotes squad who will be forced to play rookie goaltender Matt Villalta.
The Coyotes are playing their first game of a back to back tonight against the Avalanche, and are playing Vejmelka. It may be possible if the Oilers fill the net tomorrow night, that he may have to play two nights in a row.
Villalta is a 24 year old goaltender drafted by the LA Kings in the third round of 2017. Through his career so far, he's toiled through the AHL with the Kings and Coyotes affiliates, and has recorded a positive .913 save percentage this year through 34 games.
Facing a rookie goalie with their generational talents, it may be possible that the Edmonton Oilers break some offensive records tomorrow night.
