The Edmonton Oilers squared off against the Kraken at Rogers Place on Tuesday for the second of four meetings on the season. The Oilers won the opener at Climate Pledge Arena by a 4-2 final back on January 4th, and the boys must have loved that score so much that they decided to replicate it last night for a ninth consecutive win over the Kraken.

Not exactly a masterpiece at Rogers Place on Monday night, but the Edmonton Oilers ’ mastery of the Seattle Kraken continued with an eighth consecutive victory for the blue and orange.
