The Edmonton Oilers entered Climate Pledge Arena to faceoff against the Seattle Kraken Wednesday night with an illness riddled lineup. This showed itself unfortunately as the Oilers lost by a score of 4-2.

The game got away from the Oilers quickly in the first period as the Kraken scored three unanswered goals to put them up, 3-0. Just before the end of the first, defenceman Darnell Nurse scored from the point on the powerplay to cut the lead down to two, with a score of 3-1 to end the opening frame.
