Sounds like, per Gregor, Jones in for koekkoek while... brace yourselves, PRuss in for Neal (who isn’t on this road trip).

While you never like to see someone get injured, I am excited to see Jones step in and get an opportunity here. I don't think that he should have sat for as many games as he did. Let's be honest, the bottom of the Oilers defence is not some sort of impenetrable force, I would have liked to see Tippett rotate him back in sooner.

Oilers Goal Differential
17/18: 234 GF / 263 GA (-29)
18/19: 232 GF / 274 GA (-42)
19/20 (82 game pace): 257 GF / 254 GA (+3) in 64 games
2021 (82 game pace):269 GF / 235 GA (+34) after 38 games
