The Edmonton Oilers are aiming for their first appearance in the Western Conference finals since 2022.
However, for the first game of the second round, they will be without Adam Henrique, a recent acquisition at the trade deadline, according to head coach Kris Knoblauch.
Elliotte Friedman has just reported that Henrique will be replaced by Connor Brown to face the Canucks tonight in Vancouver at 10:30 PM.
With home-ice advantage, the Canucks will struggle to contain Connor McDavid and his teammates, especially with Arturs Silvos, the third goaltender, in net.
