After getting booed off the ice at TD Garden, Bruins players had few answers for their play after a 4-0 loss to the Oilers.

Naturally, given this mix, Brown got the least ice time among Oilers blueliners at 11:49. His most notable moment came in the first period when he levelled Trent Frederic with a hip check along the boards by the Oilers bench. Brown was used on the penalty kill in the third when Ekholm was in the box.

In today’s NHL rumors rundown, the Edmonton Oilers revealed that Evander Kane had a separate surgery that will delay his rehab by 4-8 weeks. Kane also confirmed the injury news and spoke with Edmonton media about how this will affect his comeback timeline.

Skinner did and Draisaitl didn’t. Despite being knocked out of the game for the last 5:25 of the first period after being run over by Boston’s Nikita Zadorov, Skinner was outstanding — stopping all 26 shots for the goose egg.

The Oilers arrive winners of three straight, seven of 10, and 14 of 18, with top NHL scorer Leon Draisaitl on a 14-game point streak.

Here are the report cards for the first half Oilers in 2024-25.

Montreal Canadiens David Savard would be one option on their list. This season the Oilers defensive pairings have shown some flexibility and Brett Kulak for example has played both sides, so a left-handed defenseman that can move the puck could also be an option.
