The Edmonton Oilers visit the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday to close a three-game California road trip, aiming to extend their four-game winning streak and remain unbeaten in regulation. Edmonton is coming off a 3-1 win over San Jose, with Connor McDavid and Vasily Podkolzin each carrying five-game point streaks; the Kings, meanwhile, are still looking for their first win after an overtime loss to Vegas. The matchup is the first of four between the Pacific Division rivals this season, and Edmonton has recently emphasized disciplined defensive play while continuing to find ways to win.

Islanders forward Emil Heineman was ejected early in Saturday’s 4-0 loss to Edmonton after a knee-on-knee hit on Oilers rookie Isaac Howard drew a five-minute major and game misconduct. Howard left unable to put weight on his leg, though Edmonton’s coach said the injury appeared less serious than it first looked; further discipline for Heineman remained uncertain.
