Oilers’ Crunch Time Schedule Breakdown | NHL News
Description
The Edmonton Oilers kick off their expanded 84-game season early against the Canucks, hoping a new coach and a revamped schedule can fix last year’s slow start. With division glory last won in ’87, every game counts — especially at home, where they’ve got key homestands in October, November, and January, including a crucial six-game stretch in January with no back-to-backs. February’s eight-game homestand is pivotal, with just two road games the entire month. On the road, they face tough stretches — including a brutal 11-game back-to-back stretch — and a holiday road trip during the World Juniors. With McDavid and Draisaitl needing to dominate at Rogers Place, the Oilers’ season hinges on home ice and avoiding the pitfalls of last year.
