After morning skate concluded, Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch made himself available for his usual interviews, revealing that defenceman Mattias Ekholm is dealing with a minor injury.
While the nature of the injury is still unclear, the Swedish blue-liner is obviously dealing with something sustained during the Oilers playoff style game against the LA Kings.
The last time these two teams met, the Edmonton Oilers ran the Wild right out the building, spanking them by a whopping score of 7-1.
The Oilers will look to up their record to 28-13-3 -- puck drop is set for 6:30 MT.
