The fourth line of the Edmonton Oilers finds its pace

After struggling to gain traction early in the season, the Edmonton Oilers' fourth line begins to make an impact.

Jujhar Khaira, Kyle Brodziak and Zack Kbadian are beginning to develop in chemistry. After playing their best match as a unit in a 2-1 win against the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday, they had another great exit against the Wild.

"Chemistry is very important, it runs all the way," Khaira said. "Whenever you can create chemistry with your teammates and teammates, I think it's important. You understand better how everyone plays and what is your main goal, your main job is ice cream. Of course, we are building chemistry and we need to continue. "

The fourth line of the Oilers begins to gain the confidence of the coaching staff. Still, with eight digital powers competing on Tuesday, they struggled to get in pace.

"The fewer whistles there are in a match," Khaira said. "There were a lot of whistles (Tuesday) and I think when you're there, you always have to find a way to be effective. Whether there are whistles or not, you have to find this stream, even if it is more difficult than some games than others. You must try to be as effective as you can. "

The fourth line is effective for creating turnovers in the offensive zone and for being responsible for the defense. Khaira finished with a plus-1 ranking against the Wild, while Brodziak and Kbadian were tied.

"I think we just have to play live, pbad our failure before. I think this is the strongest part of the game in our line, "said Khaira. "If we leave early, I think everything will be fine."
