Everyone knows the Oilers lost Pronger last year and it has showed on the blue line as Calgary snapped off 60 shots in two games. The Oilers are still 1-1 to start the season but they run into a hot Sharks team in San Jose tonight. Joe Thornton, Jonathan Cheechoo, Steve Bernier and Patrick Marleau have been the offensive power house for the Sharks so far in 2006-07. Evgeni Nabokovs will get the start tonight. In his only other start this year, Nabokov looked solid while turning away all 26 shots he faced in a 2-0 shutout win over the Islanders. Look for the Sharks to continue the hot start and go to 4-0.
