Oilers lineup tonight: Edmonton’s projected lineup for game against the New York Rangers| Mar. 16, 2025

Tonight, the Edmonton Oilers will look to make it back-to-back wins when they collide with the New York Rangers on the road. After a tough four-game skid following the end of the 4 Nations Face-Off hiatus, Edmonton has seemingly started to find their rhythm as they set their sights on another deep postseason run this year.

While the Oilers are coming off an OT win over the New York Islanders, the Rangers are fresh off a 3-2 win over the Minnesota Wild this week, which snapped a four-game skid for the team.

Although Edmonton, Vegas and Los Angeles are all competing for the top three slots in the Pacific Division, all three are many games ahead of fourth-place. As a result, assuming no severe losing streaks, Edmonton appears to be on track to make the playoffs.
