Edmonton Oilers Lineups Revealed: Controversial Decision Regarding Klim Kostin
The Edmonton Oilers look to stay (somewhat) hot after breaking their four-game losing streak against the Philadelphia Flyers this past Tuesday, it was a milestone night as Connor McDavid reached his 800th NHL point, and Leon Draisaitl hit 700 career points.
The Oilers continue their Pennsylvania road trip as they face off against the Pittsburgh Penguins tonight at 7PM Eastern/5PM EDM time zone, and what makes an Oilers game without a little bit of questionable decisions?
#LetsGoOilers vs #LetsGoPens
Draisaitl-McDavid-Ryan
Hyman-RNH-Yamamoto
Foegele-McLeod-Puljujarvi
Kostin-Shore-Janmark
Nurse-Ceci
Kulak-Barrie
Broberg-Bouchard
Desharnais
Skinner
Campbell
Scratched: Kane (injury)
With Evander Kane injured it opens up a roster spot, which Devin Shore is now taking as seen in the lineup posted above, but a forward will have to be healthy scratched/sent down before tonight's game as the Oilers currently have 12 forwards (the standard) but are over the roster size with 7 defensemen.
Klim Kostin gets demoted to the 4th line, which is also questionable.
