On January 3rd, the Edmonton Oilers faced the Seattle Kraken, and in the end, the score was 2-5 in favor of their opponents. The Oilers were led by Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, who finished with one point. He was on the ice for 17 minutes and 6 seconds and attempted two shots on the opposition’s goal. One of those found its way to the back of the net. Stuart Skinner gave his best and ended the match saving 16 out of the total 20 shots he came across, but despite that, his side was unable to prevail. The Edmonton Oilers are 4-4-2 when it comes to their latest 10 games and have lost two in a row. They are 9-11-1 when playing at their own arena this campaign. The calendar shows that Edmonton will next be against the Colorado Avalanche on January 7 at their own arena.
