Round 2 is officially here, and the Edmonton Oilers are set for a heavyweight clash with the Vegas Golden Knights. On today’s edition of Oilersnation Everyday, we’ll get you prepped for everything you need to know before Game 1 gets underway on Tuesday night. After rallying from a 2-0 series deficit to beat the LA Kings in six games, the Oilers are full of confidence heading into a rematch of 2023's second-round matchup against Vegas. Will this year be different?

We’ll go through the projected lineups for both sides, highlighting key strengths, weaknesses, and potential areas of exploitation. Vegas enters this series with plenty of playoff experience and a deep defensive unit, but the Oilers have shown that when their depth is rolling, they’re one of the most dangerous teams in the league. We’ll also cover the latest injury news and lineup tweaks as both teams prepare for what should be a tight, physical series.

The biggest question heading into Game 1 lies in the crease. Adin Hill is expected to start for the Golden Knights, but for the Oilers, the decision isn’t quite as clear. Calvin Pickard was outstanding in the first round, winning three straight games and posting strong numbers. Will Knoblauch stick with the hot hand, or will Stuart Skinner get another chance to prove himself?

We’ll dive into all of that and more, including our Sherwood Ford Giant Question, and take a trip around the league in our Playoff Report, which features two epic Game 7s that went down over the weekend.

Today’s show is also loaded with guests. Louie DeBrusk joins us for his weekly hit to share his thoughts on how the Oilers match up against Vegas and gives his prediction for the series. Later on, we’ll be joined by former Oilers goaltender Devan Dubnyk, who provides his insight on the Oilers' goaltending situation, the pressure of Round 2, and what it takes to push through a long playoff run.

Round 2 starts now, and we’ve got you covered from every angle on Oilersnation Everyday!
