Rangers vs Oilers recent scores and head-to-head results

The Oilers have outscored their last three opponents 12-1, while the Rangers have been outscored 17-8 over their last three games.

The Nov. 1 meeting was lopsided on the scoreboard and closer in shots. The Rangers outshot the Oilers 28-24, including by more than two to one in the second period, but they trailed 3-0 before Pavel Dorofeyev scored. Both lineups differed from full strength: Matt Tomkins started in goal for the Oilers, and Sean Durzi missed the game for the Rangers.

Where do Rangers and Oilers stand this season?

The Oilers are 11-2-2 for 24 points through 15 games and lead the Western Conference. The Rangers are 7-7-1 for 15 points through 15 games, 13th in the Eastern Conference.

The Oilers' road record is better than their home record. They are 7-0-0 away, which leaves a 4-2-2 mark at home across the other eight games. The Rangers are 6-2-0 at home and 1-5-1 on the road, so a trip to Edmonton puts them in their weaker setting.

Scoring explains much of the gap. The Oilers averaged 4.21 goals per game through Oct. 31, the most in the NHL, while the Rangers have scored 45 goals and allowed 46.

Rangers vs Oilers team news, injuries and projected lineups

Neither team has announced a starting goalie for Nov. 9, and both have injuries in net.

Rangers

Igor Shesterkin is out for the season after an injury on Oct. 9. Dylan Garand has covered the net since and is 1-5-1 since Oct. 15.

Joonas Korpisalo, on injured reserve with a lower-body injury, has resumed practicing and is nearing a return, so the Rangers' goalie pairing could change. Garand is the likeliest starter on his recent workload, but that is a projection.

Durzi missed Nov. 1 with an undisclosed injury, the first game he has missed this season. Braden Schneider moved up to the second pair beside Marcus Pettersson while Scott Morrow made his season debut, and the status of all three for Nov. 9 has not been announced.

Oilers

Tristan Jarry posted back-to-back shutouts against the Flames and Islanders, then rested while Tomkins won his Oilers debut on Nov. 1. Frederik Andersen and Devon Levi are both injured.

Zach Hyman is on injured reserve with a neck injury. Isaac Howard missed Nov. 1 with a knee injury that coach Mike Babcock said looked less serious than first feared, and his status for Nov. 9 is not known. The top line of Vasily Podkolzin, Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl was the projected unit for Nov. 1, and lines for Nov. 9 have not been announced.

What could decide Rangers vs Oilers?

The first meeting showed where the rematch could turn: the opening minutes, the Oilers' crease and the Rangers' blue line.

Can the Rangers stop falling behind early?

The Rangers have allowed the first goal in each of their four straight losses and trailed by multiple goals in the first period in the last three. McDavid scored 50 seconds into the Nov. 1 game and Colton Dach made it 2-0 at 6:19.

Once the Rangers settled, they controlled the second period, which suggests they can match the Oilers when the score is close. If the Oilers score first again, the Rangers face the same chase. A level first period would give their shot volume a better chance to turn into goals.

Do the Oilers' goalies hold up behind the top line?

The Oilers have allowed one goal in their last three games, but the crease is where their depth is thinnest. With Andersen and Levi injured, a Nov. 9 start would likely go to Jarry or Tomkins, who has made seven career NHL starts.

McDavid has a point in all 15 of the Oilers' games and leads the NHL with 39 points. That production gives any goalie an early cushion, as Nov. 1 showed, and it makes the first Rangers goal the moment that tests the Oilers' goalie.

Can the Rangers' defense handle McDavid's line in Edmonton?

McDavid beat Vladislav Gavrikov on his opening goal, and Evan Bouchard had a goal and two assists. The Rangers had to rework their pairs without Durzi for the first time this season. As the home team, the Oilers get the last line change, which makes it easier to choose which Rangers pair faces McDavid's line.

The Oilers' route is another quick start from the top line and Bouchard, who has 26 points through 15 games. The Rangers' route is a level first period and saves that keep Garand or Korpisalo in the game long enough for their second-period pressure to count.
