Oilersnation Pre Game Pod – Game 6 at Toronto

Jan 22, 2021, 15:15 ESTUpdated: Jan 22, 2021, 15:19 EST
The Oilers will be looking to win back-to-back games for the first time this season tonight as they play their second straight game in Toronto. The first game was a low-scoring affair, which surprised almost everyone, but I’m sure Oilers Coach Dave Tippett would love to see his team put forth another good defensive performance. Some fans didn’t like the way that the Oilers won on Wednesday night but no matter how you win, it still gets you two points in the standings. Hard to complain about that. Now, the Oilers will be looking to get back to .500 on the year with another big win in Toronto.
Edmonton could get James Neal back in the lineup tonight as he is finally healthy and ready to go. On the other side of things, the Toronto Maple Leafs will be without star forward Auston Matthews and veteran Joe Thornton. I go over all the lineup changes today on the Pre Game Podcast (brought to you by YEG Burger & Nation Beer)!
