The Edmonton Oilers have another preseason game tonight. This time taking on the Seattle Kraken for the first time in franchise history.
The Seattle Kraken faced the Vancouver Canucks to start their preseason a few days ago, they won 5 to 3 at home. You can bet the Edmonton Oilers are going to be a bit tougher to play against tonight.
The Kraken are going to be playing their first away game ever, so this is the first time the franchise will be entering an opponents stadium for a game in the preseason. To get a little scouting report on the enemy check out our friends over at Kraken Chronicle.
The Edmonton Oilers are going to be playing a lot of stars in tonight’s game:
On the Seattle side of things you can read about their lineup and everything to know about the opponent from Kraken Chronicle. The biggest test for the Oilers tonight will most likely be the goaltending from Seattle. Philipp Grubauer and Chris Driedger are two very skilled goaltenders, and even though Edmonton is a very good offensive team, goaltending has been able to stop them in the past.
Getting shots on net and getting redirections is going to be important tonight. The Oilers are able to score highlight reel goals, but what matters more right now against a good goaltender in Grubauer is going to be trying to create traffic and score some goals that skilled goaltenders won’t be able to stop.
I also am excited to watch the power play tonight. Edmonton scored a power play goal in game one after getting a ton of chances, but that was not with the main power play players. Tonight with McDavid, Draisaitl, and Nugent-Hopkins pretty much every component of the Oilers high danger power play is available and might as well start scoring some goals now.
