Saturday’s night NHL schedule will close its activities with 3 games to be disputed at 08:00 pm Central Time, where clearly one of the most interesting will count with one of the last season finalists, Edmonton Oilers. This Canadian team will receive Chicago Blackhawks in a must-win game as they struggled during their respective debuts in the 2024/25 season.
When looking at both teams’ performance, Edmonton Oilers is the only team from the Western Conference that hasn’t been able to score at least 1 goal in the beginning of the season. That bad streak isn’t weird enough when taking into consideration that the Oilers lost Connor McDavid, who was their best offensive player during the last season’s playoffs.
Meanwhile, Chicago Blackhawks is still one of the worst teams in the Western Conference after losing their last 2 matches in a row. Nonetheless, they at least rescued 1 point after their overtime defeat against Winnipeg Jets (2-1), being necessary to note that this will be their third away match in a row, fact that clearly is also impacting on their performance as they still don’t have any World Class forward.
