Edmonton Oilers head coach Pat Quinn intimated there will be a roster reduction following Sunday's final pre-season contest against the Vancouver Canucks.

If that's the case, the Oilers will carry 31 players through the weekend.

Quinn did have J. F. Jacques skating with Shawn Horcoff and Ales Hemsky again, while Patrick O'Sullivan and Mike Comrie practised with Dustin Penner.

Andrew Cogliano, Sam Gagner and Zack Stortini were another of the trios out on Friday, as were Robert Nilsson, Gilbert Brule and Ryan Stone. That left Kip Brennan, Liam Reddox and Jordan Eberle along with Rob Schremp and Steve MacIntyre.

Checking Edmonton Oilers Web Site - Eberle is skating in Saturday's practice, does this mean that he will be playing to-morrow?
