In an effort to reverse course, Oilers' Head Coach Jay Woodcroft shuffled things up today and replaced fan favorite Zach Kassian with Derek Ryan on the team's fourth line. This comes after a tough loss two nights ago at the hands of hated rival, the Calgary Flames.

This is the lineup Edmonton is set to employ tonight versus the Arizona Coyotes. Jesse Puljujärvi was also moved up to the first line alongside Connor McDavid & Evander Kane. Having lost 3 of their last 4 games, the Oilers are still in a playoff spot, but their position is anything but safe. Vancouver, Dallas, & Winnipeg are each biting at Edmonton's heels. A turnaround is paramount for McDavid & the Oil.
