Edmonton Oilers set to make lineup changes for Game 4 of Western Conference final

May 29, 2024 | 9:43 AM

EDMONTON — The Edmonton Oilers are shaking things up.

Down 2-1 in the NHL’s Western Conference final to the Dallas Stars, head coach Kris Knoblauch confirmed there would be lineup changes for tonight’s Game 4.

While he wouldn’t elaborate, it appears defenceman Philip Broberg will see his first action of the playoffs.

Veteran forward Corey Perry and centre Ryan McLeod also look set to draw in.

Edmonton defenceman David Desharnais and forwards Warren Foegele and Sam Carrick stayed out late after the Oilers’ morning skate, which suggests all three will be scratched.
