KEY GAME INFORMATION
BOSTON: LAST SEASON: 41-27-14, 96 points. Fifth in Atlantic Division. Missed playoffs for first time since 2007.
COACH: Claude Julien (ninth season, 13th NHL season).
ADDED: F Jimmy Hayes, D Matt Irwin, F Matt Beleskey
LOST: D Dougie Hamilton, F Milan Lucic, F Daniel Paille, F Carl Soderberg, GM Peter Chiarelli.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Zdeno Chara. The 38-year-old defenseman is coming off his worst season since 2002-03 with eight goals and 12 assists - an average of less than one point every three games. The 2009 Norris Trophy winner sustained a knee injury early last season and wasn't his dominating self after that. He picked up an undisclosed upper body injury this preseason and is day-to-day heading into the opener. The Bruins will need him to recover, with No. 2 defenseman Dennis Seidenberg also out for the start of the season.
OUTLOOK: Chiarelli was fired after deals that put the team in salary cap purgatory and forced him to deal talent to make more space. His former assistant and Harvard teammate Don Sweeney took over and kept Julien on board. Sweeney dealt Lucic and Hamilton to clear space. But with Chara, G Tuukka Rask and F Patrice Bergeron remaining as the spine of the team that went to the Stanley Cup Finals in 2013 and won the Presidents' Trophy the following season, the Bruins shouldn't miss the playoffs again.
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.
PREVIEW
Bruins-Oilers Preview
By JEFF MEZYDLO STATS Senior Writer

Though far from complacent, the Boston Bruins are having a good time amid their longest winning stretch of the season.

The visiting Bruins will try for a sixth consecutive victory Wednesday night against the lowly Edmonton Oilers.

Things didn't look very bright while Boston (13-8-1) lost five of the first seven in November, but its collective attitude improved while winning the final five of the month. The Bruins last won six in a row during a 12-game run in March 2014.

"Winning's just fun," forward Matt Beleskey told the Bruins' official website. "Keeping that up is almost easy. You come to the rink, you're having fun - you've just got to stay focused.

"I think everyone likes that feeling in here, and being on a winning streak's great. So it's something we're going to have to keep working on."

Boston's surge has been keyed by a defense that's yielded 10 goals in the last five games after giving up 23 in the previous seven. The Bruins have killed 15 of 16 penalties during the five-game run after opponents converted 10 of 29 chances through the first seven of November.

"We've got to keep going, keep playing our game, and I think we see (in the dressing room) when we do it, good things happen," Beleskey said.

Boston hasn't played since showing its mettle by erasing a pair of one-goal deficits to score the final two of Friday's 4-3 win over the New York Rangers.

"We have to know that we can win games when we're down by a goal or two or three and we keep that resiliency going," winger Brad Marchand said.

David Krejci scored the winner late against the Rangers for his ninth of the season. He has two goals with seven assists in the last 10 contests.

Boston begins this three-game western Canadian trip at Edmonton, where it's 13-game series winning streak ended with a 4-3, 12-round shootout loss Feb. 18.

A winner of three in a row, Boston's Tuukka Rask is 4-0-1 with a 1.97 goals-against average against Edmonton.

The Oilers (8-15-2) concluded a 1-3-1 trip against Eastern Conference teams with a 3-0 loss to Toronto on Monday.

''I didn't think we were a very hard team,'' said Edmonton coach Todd McLellan, whose team recorded eight shots in each period. ''I didn't think we stood over a lot of pucks. I didn't think we won a lot of battles along the boards. I didn't think we were competitive enough in a lot of areas to come up with the victory.''

Edmonton totaled six non-shootout goals and was shut out twice on the trek.

"It's frustrating," said forward Taylor Hall, who recorded one of his team-leading 25 points on the trip. "We're going to have to manage to get some wins on the board. ... We've been right there (on the trip), but it seems like we've been right there the whole season."

Hall has five goals and 10 assists in 10 home games, but one point in four overall against Boston.
