PRE-GAME REPORT

EDMONTON, AB - The Oilers look to keep rolling with a Monday night matchup against the San Jose Sharks. Edmonton has won five of their last six contests coming into the contest and are within striking distance of the Division leading Vegas Golden Knights, who are six points ahead with a pair of head-to-head matchups yet to be played.
The Oilers opponents have been prey more often than predator this season, sitting last in the Western Conference with a 19-37-14 record and a minus-69 goal differential through 70 games. The Sharks still have many reasons to make a team worry and are not going to be overlooked by the Oilers locker room.
"Listen, we're in a cap world. Every team is good," Zach Hyman said about tonight's opponent. "They have got, arguably, the Norris Trophy winner on their team. They're no slouch and they're a good team. So, it'll be a good test."
The potential Norris Trophy winner Zach mentioned is the 2012 recipient of the award, Erik Karlsson. The defender has been a man rejuvenated this year and is one of three rearguards to lead their team in scoring, with Nashville's Roman Josi and Seattle's Vince Dunn being the other two.
Karlsson is currently 11th in league scoring with 85 points in 70 games and is looking to be the first defenceman to eclipse the 100-point mark since Brian Leetch did it for the Rangers in 1991-92.
"It's the National Hockey League, any team can beat any team on any given night. Most rosters are littered with real highly skilled players that if you don't pay attention to details in your game, they can make you pay," Head Coach Jay Woodcroft said after morning skate. "This team tonight is no different. They have some real high-end players that we're going to need to make sure our attention and focus is where it needs to be for us."
San Jose's attack is not only Erik Karlsson. Long-time Sharks forward Logan Couture is in the middle of his 10th 20-goal campaign of his career and leads the team with 59 points (24G, 35A) in 70 games. Thomas Hertl continues to be a reliable contributor for Head Coach David Quinn's squad with the two-time 30 goal man sitting with 55 points (19G, 34A) in 67 contests.
For the Oilers, the focus will be on trying to impose their style of game on the Sharks much like they did on Jan. 13 when they picked up a 7-1 victory in San Jose.
"I just keep going back to making sure that our mindset is in the right spot, that we got to take care of our business today," Woodcroft sad. "What I see before us is a team that works really hard. That's a credit to their coaching staff. This team works, and if we're not on our game, they can make you pay because they have some real high-end players."
"Down the stretch, you got to win games. I think that's the key, especially with how tight the standings are, so it doesn't matter who you're playing against," Hyman added. "I think we won, what is it, three in a row? So, it's important to keep a good thing going. I think there's a lot to clean up in that Seattle game, even though we won, so it's a good opportunity for us."

18 GOING ON 30

Zach Hyman became the latest member of the Oilers 30-goal club when he picked the top corner on Seattle's Martin Jones on Saturday.
The milestone marker gave the 30-year-old his first 30-goal campaign in what has been a career season for the relentless winger. His emergence into the upper echelon of NHL forwards - Hyman is currently 23rd in the league in scoring - has provided the Oilers with another game breaker outside of the usual suspects.
"I think offense is hard to come by in this league. It's hard to score goals and I think what's exciting about our team is we're able to do that and we're able to score with anyone," Hyman said about the Oilers goalscoring depth. "The key for us is keeping it out of our net, and if we're able to do that, we have a real good shot to do some damage. I don't know what the stats say about how many goal scorers we have and obviously Evander, if he was healthy, would be right up there as well, so it's fun to be a part of this group."
This year's Edmonton Oilers squad is the first iteration of the team to have four 30-goal scorers in the same year since the 1989-90 season when Mark Messier (45), Glenn Anderson (34), Jarri Kurri (33), and Esa Tikkanen (30) all reached that threshold.
Alongside the quartet of 30-goal men in Zach Hyman, Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins -- the Oilers also have six other forwards with at least 10 goals this season and another two within two tallies of reaching double-digits.
"It's a credit to them for capitalizing on their opportunities," Woodcroft said about his bevy of goal scorers. "We think that's part of what makes us a dangerous team. I think part of it comes down to skill level, but also part of it comes down to paying a price to find offensive success. When you look at some of the teams, I think historically, I think the last time I saw some of the names involved and the last time the Oilers had four 30-goal scorers, that's a long time ago. Anytime you can do that in the modern-day NHL, I think that's a positive and like I said, I think it makes us a dangerous team."

JACK IN THE NET

Jack Campbell occupied the starters crease during the morning skate and looks likely to lead the Oilers out of the tunnel for the first time since Mar. 4 in Winnipeg.
The 31-year-old's inaugural season in the Blue & Orange has been a bit of a rollercoaster, with an eight-game winning streak bookended by some hockey the Port Huron, Michigan native would admit is not up to his standards. Campbell comes into tonight's contest ready to show off the work he's been putting in over the last few weeks while Stuart Skinner took the starters reigns.
"I'm excited. I just want to go out and have some fun and just try to do my part and help the team get another two points," Campbell said.
The goaltender has been trying to maintain a positive mindset while he grinds towards extracting his All-star form from last season.
"I've just been really having fun and not overthinking the game. And technically we've been working on some stuff with (goaltending coach Dustin) Schwartz and my games feeling good and I'm just ready to go out and have some fun," he said.
Hyman has been a teammate of Campbell's for parts of three seasons and knows the type of person the Oilers goaltender is and has seen him at his peak. Campbell was the goalie who seized the Maple Leafs crease in Hyman's last season in Toronto, recording a .922 regular season save percentage followed by an even more impressive .934 mark in the playoffs.
"I would say first and foremost, Jack's the ultimate team guy. He always puts the team first," Hyman said. "I know for him, he's an extremely competitive guy as well and expects a lot out of himself, and he's oftentimes too hard on himself when speaking out. But, I think he's a goalie who works extremely hard at his craft and I'm excited to see him in the net tonight."

PREVIEW

OILERS vs. SHARKS
WATCH: 7:30 p.m. MT; televised on Sportsnet One
Oilers Team Scope
The Edmonton Oilers earned two important points in a 6-4 victory over the Seattle Kraken at Climate Pledge Arena on Saturday afternoon, moving two points further ahead of the Kraken for third place in the Pacific Division with a 39-23-8 record.
The win was Edmonton's third straight and their NHL-leading 16th game this season scoring six-plus goals. The Oilers are 18-5-5 since Jan. 11 and have won seven of their last nine games, outscoring opponents 42-31 during that span.
Evander Kane recorded his sixth regular-season hat trick and fifth in his last 49 regular season and playoff appearances, while Zach Hyman became the fourth Oiler with 30 goals this campaign when he made it 4-2 in the second period of Saturday's win. Kane's third of the night and 13th on the year was a snipe top corner that went down as the game-winner with 9:40 remaining in regulation.
"It's nice to help contribute to an important win," he said. "Big points with the division so tight. I've been in and out of the lineup with injuries all year, so just trying to get into some rhythm heading into the playoffs, and tonight definitely helps that."
With points in 13 of their last 14 home games at Rogers Place (9-1-4) and the League's best 3.91 goals per game this season, the Oilers look to roll their momentum into Monday's meeting with the Sharks, who've lost five straight to Edmonton and own the third-worst goals against per game in the NHL (3.76).

Sharks Team Scope
The San Jose Sharks have now lost six straight and 14 of their last 16 games (2-11-3) after falling 4-1 to the New York Islanders on Saturday night at SAP Center.
Kevin Labanc had San Jose ahead 1-0 at 7:31 of the first period, but it'd end up being their only offensive support for netminder Kaapo Kahkonen, who allowed four goals on 33 shots -- including the back-breaker to Zach Parise 5:19 into the final frame.
"I thought the fourth goal really demoralized us," Sharks Head Coach David Quinn said. "I thought, if we're able to get that next one, all of a sudden it's a 3-2 hockey game and then the third period may take on a different meaning to it but, unfortunately, we weren't able to get that."
Saturday's defeat for the Sharks was their 39th game of the season allowing four-plus goals, the second-most in the NHL, and now they'll have to defend against an Oilers team that's registered more four-goal games than any other team in the League (40).
"I'm just trying to help the team win," Labanc said. "We're all trying to do our part and trying to play as hard as we can. Some guys are playing for contracts and some guys are playing for pride."

By The Numbers
