The Edmonton Oilers will start goaltender Connor Ingram for their home game against the Nashville Predators on March 15, 2026, as confirmed by head coach Kris Knoblauch. Ingram, acquired earlier this season, gets the nod over Stuart Skinner.

Forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is considered a game-time decision due to an undisclosed injury. His potential absence would be a significant blow to the Oilers' top-six forward group and power-play units.

The Oilers are looking to rebound after a recent loss, while the Predators enter the contest fighting for a playoff position in the Western Conference. The matchup is a key test for Edmonton's depth as they navigate the final stretch of the regular season.
