Sigh...no Jeff Skinner again. I don't get it. We're struggling to score, yet we're benching our most consistent goal scorer (outside of Drai)?
Is it a plan to annoy him to the point where he agrees to waive that NMC? That's the only reason I can think of.
edit: Huh, now Skinner is in per Fat Bob and the Oilers FB post with the line up seems to have been deleted

Not sure where you're seeing Skinner is out. Oilers website has Skinner in and on a line with Draisaitl (Savoie out).
Nurse also out with undisclosed injury.
Nugent-Hopkins - McDavid - Hyman
Skinner - Draisaitl - Arvidsson
Janmark - Henrique - Brown
Podkolzin - Kapanen - Perry
Ekholm - Bouchard
Stecher - Emberson
Kulak - Klingberg
Skinner
Pickard
Edit: never mind, just saw your correction.

IMHO the Oil have lost some team speed since last season.. I rank these as the slower of the pokes..
J Skinner
Arvidsson
Henrique
Kapanen
RNH
Perry
Bouchard
Emberson
Stecher
Could use speed upgrades in a lot of places

Kapanen is the opposite of slow. Not McD fast, but is very fast when he decides to skate.
Puck management at time is terrible though.
