LAS VEGAS, NV – Forward Zach Hyman will remain out of the lineup on Tuesday night when the Edmonton Oilers duel the Vegas Golden Knights in an important Pacific Division battle at T-Mobile Arena.
The Oilers winger participated in Monday's full-team practice before taking to the ice for Tuesday's optional morning skate in Vegas, but Head Coach Kris Knoblauch confirmed following the skate that Hyman won't suit up tonight for a fifth straight game.
Edmonton's lineup will have no changes for the fourth straight game on Tuesday, including wingers Kasperi Kapanen and Connor Brown holding down top-six roles next to Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl on the first and second lines, respectively.
Goaltender Stuart Skinner will start again between the pipes for the Oilers after making 27 saves in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche.
