After a rollercoaster four-game road trip, the Edmonton Oilers are back at Rogers Place to kick off a four-game homestand against the Utah Hockey Club. The road trip started on a rough note with losses to Buffalo and New Jersey, but the Oilers managed to salvage it with back-to-back wins against the Islanders and Rangers. Now, they look to build on that momentum in front of their home crowd.

Calvin Pickard will get the start between the pipes tonight after an outstanding performance against the Islanders, where he stopped 24 of 25 shots in a crucial overtime win. Another big storyline heading into this matchup is the promotion of Jeff Skinner to the Oilers' top line alongside Connor McDavid, a move that could provide a fresh offensive spark. Additionally, Zach Hyman returns to the lineup after missing Sunday’s game against the Rangers, bringing back his much-needed scoring presence.

We’ll go through our lineup report, game notes, and Sherwood Ford Giant Question, plus break down what this game means for the Oilers as they try to climb the standings.

Then, we’ll be joined by former Oilers goaltender Devan Dubnyk, who will share his thoughts on Edmonton’s improved goaltending and defensive play, as well as Calvin Pickard’s clutch OT performance against the Islanders.

We’ll also wrap things up with our Bet365 Gameday Betting Challenge, where Tyler and Liam give their best bets for tonight’s matchup. Don’t miss it!
