Status report
Luke Hughes, a defenseman, will not play after he was injured during a 2-1 overtime win at the Calgary Flames on Monday. He’ll be replaced by Kovacevic. … The Oilers will use 11 forwards and seven defensemen; Kapanen, a forward, is day to day after leaving in the first period of a 5-0 win against the St. Louis Blues on Sunday … Draisaitl, a forward, remains on a leave of absence and will miss his third consecutive game, but coach Kris Knoblauch said he is expected to return later this week.
