OILERS vs BRUINS
Score 0-0
At TD Garden in Boston:
Thursday, December 18, 2025, and the Edmonton Oilers (16-12-6) visit the Boston Bruins (20-14-0) at TD Garden in a compelling inter-conference clash. The Bruins, riding a strong 7-3-0 record in their last 10 games and boasting a solid 12-5-0 home mark, will look to capitalize on their recent form led by standout performances from players like Morgan Geekie, who has been red-hot offensively.
Edmonton, meanwhile, has turned things around with a 6-3-1 stretch in their past 10, fueled by their high-powered attack averaging over 4 goals per game lately and stars like Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl driving the offense on the road (8-9-3 away).
With Boston reporting no major injuries and the Oilers potentially missing forward Kasperi Kapanen (lower body, expected back around Christmas), expect a fast-paced battle where Edmonton's explosive scoring tests the Bruins' resilient defense in front of a raucous Boston crowd. Puck drop is at 7:00 PM ET. Goaltenders:
