THE MATCH UP

The RiverKings and Oilers play the sixth game of their nine-game season series. The RiverKings have won each of the previous five games, with the first four all being decided in overtime or a shootout. The RiverKings make a return trip to the Tulsa Convention Center on Tuesday of next week. The Oilers have won four in a row and five of their last six games. The RiverKings are looking to get back on track after starting this long nine game road trip 1-3-0. The RiverKings' Northeast Division lead over Bossier-Shreveport is back to four points after the Mudbugs' win at Youngstown last night. Tulsa is currently in 4th place in the division, but are tied with Wichita for the sixth and final playoff spot in the Northern Conference.
