Edmonton Oilers complete move with goaltender and Corey Perry game 6
The Edmonton Oilers scratch veteran players in big move before elimination game
The Oilers are at home in Edmonton tonight for game 6 at 8PM as they fight to force a game 7 scenario against the Vancouver Canucks in what has been a hectic series, to say the least.
With their season off the line, the Oilers announced two huge lineup moves, according to NHL's DailyFaceoff Frank Seravalli:
Stuart Skinner has not showed any promise in goal all season long as the team turned to AHL goaltender Calvin Pickard for their last two games.
Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch has also completed a lineup move with veteran Corey Perry who has been buried on the fourth line, showing no promise to his game, this is the end for Perry if his team does not pull through tonight- it's quite frankly season-ending news for the veteran.

With these two moves it'll be interesting to see if they're 'game-changing' and can save the Oilers season.
