3 years agoEdmonton Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse will miss Thursday's Game 6 against Los Angeles due to a suspension. He was handed a one-game suspension for head-butting Kings center Phillip Danault in Game 5. This is Nurse's second career suspension and his first since a three-game punishment in 2016. His absence will obviously be a major blow for the Oilers, who find themselves trailing 3-2 in the series after being 2-1 up. Nurse averages the most minutes per game for the team and has tallied two points in the series with 13 blocks and 10 hits.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
