The Edmonton Oilers were a favourite to come out of the Western Conference this season, which definitely dissapointed fans when they saw their team blow not one, but two, two goal leads to the LA Kings in game one, just to watch the Kings win in overtime, to take a 1-0 series lead.
Unfortunately for the Oilers, the game might not be the only thing they lost, as one of the Oilers forwards was injured in the game and is expected the miss the remainder of the series.
In game one, Matthias Janmark was seen with a limp in the Oilers locker room after blocking a shot:
Janmark not on ice for full practice. I saw him limping after game one. He blocked this shot last game off inside of his right foot. Won't be surprised it is related to that and he won't play tonight. I'd expect EDM to go 11-7.
Jason Gregor later reported that Janmark is expected to miss the remainder of the series:
