Connor McDavid is back and the blender is out. Ahead of Monday’s game against the Seattle Kraken, Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch made a few changes to his team’s forward lines.

Defenceman John Klingberg will make his long-awaited Blue & Orange debut on Thursday night when the Edmonton Oilers host the Detroit Red Wings at Rogers Place, Head Coach Kris Knoblauch confirmed following the morning skate.

The Edmonton Oilers have Connor McDavid back after a three-game suspension and, with that, came some pretty major line changes.

The Oilers' lineup remains in flux as they prepare for tonight's matchup with the Seattle Kraken. Stuart Skinner, Darnell Nurse, and John Klingberg were all missing from Oilers practice this morning, throwing a few wrenches into Kris Knoblauch's plans for tonight.

Garland, of all people, jabbed at Calvin Pickard when the Oilers goalie had the puck covered midway through the second period, which ignited a scrum behind the net. Perry quickly got involved. He was about to grab Canucks centre Elias Pettersson until he saw defenceman Quinn Hughes, who’d come in off his point, without a dance partner.

Zach Hyman had two goals and an assist, Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists and the Edmonton Oilers beat the Vancouver Canucks 6-2.

The Edmonton Oilers too to the ice for practice today with coach Knoblauch mixing up the lines for a different look and without Mattias Ekholm or Kasperi Kapanen present.

Draisaitl leads the league with 35 goals, while his 75 points on the year have him closing in on the only player with more, Nathan Mackinnon of the Colorado Avalanche (77). The fact he’s not even considered the Oilers’ best player is icing on Edmonton’s cake.

Zach Hyman had two goals and an assist and Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists as the Edmonton Oilers defeated the Vancouver Canucks 6-2 on Thursday. “Happy with all the players,” Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch said after the game.

But the Red Wings rallied, with two goals inside of three minutes. The Oilers missed some glorious chances to re-take that lead after that, including in Overtime.
