After a decisive 3-1 loss in Game 3, head coach Kris Knoblauch is set to make crucial adjustments to the lineup for Game 4 to keep the team's championship aspirations alive.
What was once considered the end of Corey Perry's tenure with the Oilers, being a healthy scratch, is now a turning point.
Looks like Philip Broberg, Ryan McLeod and Corey Perry will be in the lineup tonight. Vincent Desharnais, Warren Foegele and Sam Carrick appear to be healthy scratches.
Perry, along with Ryan McLeod and Philip Broberg, will step in for Sam Carrick, Vincent Desharnais, and Warren Foegele.
According to DailyFaceOff.com, Perry is set to play on the third line as left-wing, with Adam Henrique at center and Connor Brown on the right wing.
In the last five games, Perry has managed only three shots on goal and an average time on ice (TOI) of 4:64. This game could be pivotal for Perry's career in Edmonton.
If he doesn't perform, his future with the team might be uncertain, especially with the potential departure of GM Ken Holland.
The Oilers are hoping these changes will inject new energy into the team and lead to a much-needed victory in Game 4. Fans are eager to see if the revamped lineup can turn the tide in this critical playoff series.
