The Edmonton Oilers took to practice today before Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final, and appear to be running the same lineup as the beginning of last game.

Most importantly, the Oilers are once again expected to begin the game with McDavid and Draisaitl separated - something that didn't last in Game 1.

Edmonton Oilers reveal lines at practice, reporter notes unusual sight

According to reporters at practice, the Oilers skated with their lineup from the beginning of Game 1.
The Oilers top six forward group looks a little uglier without Zach Hyman, but the contributions they're getting from the ageless worm Corey Perry is enough for a legit first line promotion.
Kasperi Kapanen and Evander Kane stepped up to bring their most energetic performances in Game 1 and fared well, despite some mistakes. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins has been unbelievable in the playoffs.
The Oilers third and fourth lines are stacked with talent too, and they may have one of the best healthy scratches ever with Jeff Skinner in the press box. Even without Hyman, the Oilers forward group is incredibly deep.

Oilers literally can't wait to get on ice at practice this morning

NHL insider Chris Johnston shared a picture of a relatively unusual sight at Oilers practice today - the team was lined up waiting for the Zamboni to get practice started earlier than scheduled.
This far into the playoffs and deep into a physical battle for glory, the commitment of the Oilers to get out for practice early shows their level of dedication.
It's the purest visual representation of a team that cannot wait until the puck drops tonight.
Chomping at the bit to get on the ice for practice, the Oilers have their entire locker room fully bought in to bring their best, and win the Stanley Cup. What an incredible sight from a laser focused team.
