The Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch announced a major lineup change for game two of the Stanley Cup Finals: Cody Ceci will be out tonight.

Since the playoffs started, the Oilers have dealt with their fair share of struggles at the blue line. While Evan Bouchard impresses a lot of people, others have received a lot of negative feedback, like Darnell Nurse or Cody Ceci.
Ahead of game two, set to go down tonight, coach Knoblauch announced that Ceci won't be in the lineup and that he'll be replaced by Vincent Desharnais.
"Vincent Desharnais will be back tonight. Cody Ceci looks like the odd man out."
"Nurse with Desharnais at practice for Game 2.

Ceci could be scratched for the first time as an Oiler.

Lines are as follows:

RNH-McDavid-Hyman
Henrique-Draisaitl-Holloway
Foegele-McLeod-Perry
Janmark-Carrick-Brown

Kane's status for Game 2 unknown at this point."
Desharnais, a defensive defenseman, will be a great asset as the Oilers will try to stop the Florida Panthers from getting a 2-0 lead in the series.
Do you think Kris Knoblauch made the right decision with Cody Ceci?
