Edmonton Oilers forward Zack Kassian and defenseman Slater Koekkoek will be in the lineup for Game 1 against the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday, head coach Dave Tippett confirmed.

These were the team's lines during Tuesday's practice:

Kassian missed the final three weeks of the season with a lower-body injury and hasn't played since April 21. He has two goals and three assists in 27 games this campaign.

Koekkoek suffered a broken collarbone in February but managed to return for Edmonton's regular-season finale against the Vancouver Canucks last week. The blue-liner finished with one goal in 18 games.
