The Story in 60 Seconds

The Edmonton Oilers bring a five-game winning streak into Thursday's home clash against the Utah Mammoth. Edmonton remains the NHL's only team unbeaten in regulation this season following a 4-1 road victory against the Los Angeles Kings. Captain Connor McDavid leads the league with 17 points, helping fuel Edmonton's strong run alongside solid defensive play that has seen the club concede only five goals in their past four contests.

Edmonton is managing multiple injuries but forward Zach Hyman is likely to return from an undisclosed injury for the matchup. The Mammoth enter the game with a 5-2-0 record after edging the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-4 on Tuesday. Utah head coach Andre Tourigny emphasized the importance of managing early-season success after his team surrendered two third-period goals while holding on for the win against Toronto.
