The Oilers have improved since they started playing Hitch hockey. Varly has to be on his game tonight.

If there's ever a time to give Grubauer a good, extended look, it's when Varlamov is struggling like he has the past few games. But I'm guessing he has to get injured for that to happen. And I'll go farther than Jesse and say I don't necessarily agree with that.
