The last time the Edmonton Oilers squared off against the Anaheim Ducks was at the beginning of January. Luckily for the Oilers, they beat the Ducks in a shootout at Rogers Place. Their game tonight will be at the Honda Center in Anaheim.
The Oilers sported a mediocre road record of 11-12-2 and based on how they performed against the LA Kings on Wednesday night; they need a win to keep their playoff hopes alive. The Ducks are also a few wins away from gaining ground on a wild-card playoff spot, so this game is critical for both teams.
