Sam Gagner Set For First-Line Duty Monday
1 year agoEdmonton Oilers forward Sam Gagner will be on the first line as the Kris Knoblauch era begins on Monday with a home game against the Islanders. The new Oilers head coach has thrown together a rather interesting top line for his debut, as Gagner will be paired with Connor McDavid and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. Gagner is getting a chance on the top line with the NHL's best player just weeks after grinding it out in the AHL. He's made only five NHL appearances this season, posting two goals and one assist.
