Ryan Nugent-Hopkins Ready To Return Against Kings
1 day agoEdmonton Oilers forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (illness) will rejoin the lineup for Monday's tilt against the Los Angeles Kings. The versatile veteran has missed three games due to an illness. Nugent-Hopkins will return to action at a time when Connor McDavid (rest) will join Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed) on the sidelines, meaning he is expected to operate as Edmonton's top centerman. Vasily Podkolzin and Viktor Arvidsson are projected to be Nugent-Hopkins' partners on the first line. The 32-year-old needs one more point to reach 50 points for the year, having tallied 20 goals and 29 assists in 76 appearances.
