Currently, they are carrying eight defensemen and two players in question will be newly called up Vincent Desharnais and Markus Niemelanien. Desharnais had a particularly strong debut and certainly made the case for his services to remain but the parent club.
He has one assist, is a plus one, and has averaged roughly 15 minutes of ice time.
The Oilers won their game quite convincingly against the San Jose Sharks with a score of 7-1. They put 41 shots against the sharks, and McDavid, Draisaitl, and RNH I'll have three points each.
