|
| | | EDMONTON: LAST SEASON: 24-44-14, 62 points. Missed playoffs.
COACH: Todd McLellan (seven NHL seasons, 311-163-66).
ADDED: D Eric Gryba, LW Lauri Korpikoski, C Mark Letestu, C
Connor McDavid, G Anders Nilsson, D Griffin Reinhart, D Andrej
Sekera, G Cam Talbot.
LOST: G Viktor Fasth, RW Matt Fraser, C Boyd Gordon, D Martin
Marincin, RW Steve Pinizzotto.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Connor McDavid. Yes, the Oilers have brought in
seven other players, but all eyes are going to be on the No. 1
overall draft pick as the team tries to reach the playoffs for
the first time since 2005-06. The 18-year old recorded 120
points (44 goals, 76 assists) in 47 games with the Erie Otters -
and he missed time last season due to a broken hand and his
international duties playing for Team Canada at the World Junior
Hockey Championships.
OUTLOOK: Edmonton now has experienced personnel in CEO Bob
Nicholson, GM Peter Chiarelli and coach Todd McLean. The
selection of McDavid was a no-brainer, and the additions of
goaltender Cam Talbot and defensemen Andrej Sekera, Eric Gryba
and Griffin Reinhart are upgrades. The Oilers may not be a
playoff team this season, but they won't be a contender for the
first overall pick in next June's draft either. | | CAROLINA: LAST SEASON: 30-41-11, 71 points. Last place in Metropolitan
Division. No playoffs.
COACH: Bill Peters, second season, 30-41-11.
ADDED: G Eddie Lack, RW Kris Versteeg, D James Wisniewski.
LOST: RW Alexander Semin, G Anton Khudobin.
PLAYER TO WATCH: C Eric Staal. The 30-year-old captain and
current face of the franchise is entering the final season of a
seven-year contract he signed in 2008. He has led the team in
scoring in seven of his 10 seasons - including last year, when
he had 23 goals and 54 points - but carries the weight of the
team's lengthy postseason drought on his 6-foot-4 frame.
OUTLOOK: No team in the Eastern Conference has gone longer since
its last playoff appearance than Carolina, which last made the
postseason in 2009. The returning players have a stronger grasp
of Peters' detail-oriented system and the addition of Lack
should strengthen the team's situation in goal. But an infusion
of young players likely means a few more growing pains for a
franchise celebrating the 10th anniversary of its lone Stanley
Cup title this season. |
| | Oilers-Hurricanes Preview By ALAN FERGUSON STATS Writer
Sitting in seventh place in the Metropolitan Division, the Carolina Hurricanes are playing competitively but have often come up short. They'll host an Edmonton Oilers team on Wednesday night that's experienced similar results and is in seventh in the Pacific. Carolina (7-10-4) has lost six of seven with four of those defeats coming in overtime or a shootout. Victor Rask and Brett Pesce scored in the third period Monday to force OT in Philadelphia but the Hurricanes lost 3-2 on a power-play goal just 24 seconds into the extra period. "It shows a lot about our character. We didn't give up until the very end," Pesce told the team's official website after scoring the tying goal with 3:45 left in regulation. "We came out fired up and got rewarded with a point." The result moved Carolina two points ahead of last-place Columbus in the Eastern Conference. One of the Hurricanes' two victories this month was a 4-3 win over Los Angeles on Sunday that snapped a four-game home losing streak and a five-game overall skid. "We have three points in our last two games, which is obviously good for our confidence and momentum," Pesce said. "We played the best in the third period (against Philadelphia), and we can carry that into the next game." Edmonton, last in the West, is 1-3-1 in its last five and its past three losses have been decided by one goal. The Oilers (7-13-1) outshot Washington 33-30 on Monday in a 1-0 loss, their third straight on the road. On a relatively promising note, they have yielded one goal in each of their past two games after allowing a combined 19 in their previous five. "I definitely think it's getting better," forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins said. "I think once we can do it consistently then I think we'll be a lot more successful. We show it for a lot of periods and a lot of games but it's just about doing it consistently right from the get-go. That's when we'll start finding wins." Neither team shined defensively in the most recent matchup March 8, and Carolina's 7-4 home win ended a three-game slide in the series. Elias Lindholm provided his only career hat trick and had two assists. Nugent-Hopkins had his second hat trick and one assist, giving him six goals and two assists in five career games against Carolina. Jordan Eberle had three goals and three assists in last season's two matchups. He had two goals and an assist in a 6-3 home win Oct. 24, 2014. Carolina's Jeff Skinner totaled three goals in the two games, giving him six goals and three assists in six lifetime meetings. The Hurricanes won't have Nathan Gerbe available for the next four to six weeks because of a lower-body injury suffered in the win against the Kings. Edmonton's Justin Schultz is close to returning from an ailing back but coach Todd McLellan indicated the defenseman would likely sit out Wednesday. Schultz, who hasn't played since Oct. 25, could get back on the ice sometime during the Oilers' season-high five-game trip. |
