Following a 6-5 loss in Game 1 of their playoff series against the Los Angeles Kings, the Edmonton Oilers will likely be looking at making a few tweaks to the lineup heading into Game 2 tonight.
On Thursday, the Edmonton Oilers announced that they have recalled defenceman Cam Dineen from the Bakersfield Condors on an emergency basis. Goaltender Olivier Rodrigue meanwhile was returned to the AHL affiliate as his own emergency recall concluded.
NHL head coaches have to hire good assistants. They have to set an overarching philosophy, juggle lineup configurations, and do the kind of “man management” that is impossible to track statistically.

The Utah Hockey Club’s general manager Bill Armstrong has roughly $40 million in cap space at his disposal this offseason. However, much of it will have to be spent on bringing back these six defensemen, if they want to re-sign in Utah: Sean Durzi, J.J.

I expect the Edmonton Oilers to make three additions before next Friday’s trade deadline, and I believe those will be two forwards and a defencemen for their playoff push.
