The Edmonton Oilers practice at the Rogers Place was cancelled ad held elsewhere because of a Snoop Dogg concert.

The renowned rapper and hockey fan Snoop Dogg ofen supported NHL teams in his career.
He often wears jerseys of the cities in which he gives concerts. He was even invited as a guest speaker on EA Sports' NHL20 and performed during a few NHL events over the years.
Snoop Dogg is set to give a concert tonight in Edmonton, forcing the Oilers to practice somewhere else as the ice is being changed into a stage:
"Oilers not practicing at Rogers Place... due to Snoop Dogg concert tonight."

Instead, the players practiced at the Downtown Community Arena earlier today:
"This is why the #Oilers had to practice in the Downtown Community Arena today "

Edmonton Oilers' practice: no changes are expected from game 5

According to multiple reports, the Oilers should send the same players on the ice that we saw earlier this week in Florida for game five. This would mean that Evander Kane wouldn't be ready to return yet, according to Jason Gregor:
"Watching entire practice it does not look like Kane will play. Skated on 5th line and never rotated in on 4th line.

Expect same lineup for Oilers in Game 6."
Oilers fanssurely hope that players won't go at the Snoop Dogg's concert tonight so they can oerform at 100% tomorrow, when they face elimination for the third straight game.
