Ryan Nugent-Hopkins Doubtful Wednesday
2 days agoEdmonton Oilers forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (illness) is doubtful to play on Wednesday against the St. Louis Blues. The Oilers are missing several regulars from the lineup, and it appears that Nugent-Hopkins will join them on the sidelines. As a result, Adam Henrique is projected to center the top line against St. Louis, while Kasperi Kapanen looks set to work as the second-line center. Edmonton's top two centers, Connor McDavid (lower body) and Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed), participated in Wednesday's pre-game skate, but they are "day-to-day" to "maybe a week away" from rejoining the lineup.
