Denied in their bid to move into a tie with Vegas atop the Pacific, the Edmonton Oilers resume their bid for a division title when they continue a four-game homestand against the Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday night.

The Colorado Avalanche have encountered a swarm of injury bugs this season and may have absorbed their biggest bite yet in the form of Nathan MacKinnon.

The St. Louis Blues have cooled off with losses in two of three after enjoying an eight-game winning streak and look to start moving forward again when they visit the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday night.

The Los Angeles Kings sit in last place in the Western Conference standings but will put their league-best six-game win streak on the line Wednesday against the visiting Ottawa Senators.
