Stastny, Lewis and Forbort
Roslovic is out without a contract, and Ehlers was out yesterday for Covid protocol, and may be out today

The way I see it is the first play in game last July was like a season opener and they won that. We got this.

Gosh darn it, sounds like we're just gonna need that fabled 10 game winning streak to set us back on track then.

Can you imagine Oilers fans if Lucic scored a hat trick tonight.
They lose thier opener, Lucic scores a hat trick and Tkachuk has a 3 point game.
That would be awesome.

Per Hailey Salvian of the Athletic:
According to GSVA (Game Score Value Added), Joakim Nordstrom is the worst forward the Flames have.
By virtue of having him on the fourth line, the Flames have the 24th ranked 4th line and two replacement level wingers next to Sam Bennett.
If they place Ryan next to Bennett, the Flames' expected win percentage goes from 51.6% (28 wins) to 52.8% (29 wins). So, putting Ryan in instead of Nordstrom means the Flames win another whole game. That's actually a pretty big impact relative to such a simple change.
They can still play Nordstrom for all the Sens games and put Ryan on the taxi squad for all the days off to maximize the salary cap gains.
I hope they play Ryan next to Bennett instead of Nordstrom.
