What do Oilers fans expect from Game 3?

After a double-overtime loss to the Florida Panthers on Friday night, fans were down, but certainly not out. Sarah Reid caught up with some Oilers faithful outside Rogers Place to share their predictions on Game 3.

The Oilers could be down a star forward for Game 3, after Ryan Nugent-Hopkins missed Sunday's practice with an undisclosed injury. That could sting the team, which is already playing without winger Zach Hyman, who was injured in the Western Conference finals against the Dallas Stars. 

Veteran winger Jeff Skinner looks set to return if Nugent-Hopkins, who has five goals and 13 assists in 18 games in these playoffs, is unable to go.

For the Panthers, winger A.J. Greer will return from injury in place of Jesper Boqvist after missing the first two games of the final.
