Pittsburgh Penguins Notes:

Tristan Jarry has been struggling this season, and Coach Mike Sullivan said Jarry was sent back to Pittsburgh to work with Director of Goaltending Jon Elkin. Pittsburgh was a tough-luck loser in their last game, a 4-3 Shootout loss to Calgary. Pittsburgh carried the play for much of the night, outshooting the Flames 38-18 after giving the Flames an early 7-0 advantage in shots.

Edmonton Oilers Notes:

There has been a lot of focus on goaltending in Edmonton, but the offense might be the main problem for the Oilers. The Oilers offense ranks dead last in Shooting Percentage (6.7%) and 28th in Power Play Percentage (10.5%) to go along with a Penalty Kill that’s last in the league as well (54.5%), the Oilers have some special teams issues to get right before they can turn their early season disappointments around.

Players To Watch:

Pittsburgh Penguins – Rickard Rakell and Lars Eller are tied for the team lead in goals for the Penguins with 4 each. Pittsburgh’s team defense has been lacking so far this season with the Penguins allowing a league-worst 35 goals in only 8 games.

Edmonton Oilers – Connor McDavid had 2 goals in a 3-2 Shootout loss to Carolina. The Oilers are still struggling to find wins this season but McDavid’s multi-goal outburst is a sign that things could be turning in a positive direction for Edmonton.
