Edmonton hopes to spark its offense and make solid changes to get back to their winning ways, as well as keep up with the ever-changing Western Conference standings. Here’s everything you need to know prior to puck drop.
Eberle Promoted
Head coach Todd McLellan has put Jordan Eberle back on the top line alongside Connor McDavid and Milan Lucic to spark that top trio. The 26-year-old winger has struggled when its come to offense this season, scoring only eight goals this season. Many of his shots have also been off-the-mark, which has led to trouble producing.
Not to mention, Eberle has appeared sluggish and also has trouble on the backcheck, where he can’t cover his man or keep up with the opposition.
