Injured scratches are Dan Ringwald, Curtis Hamilton, Andrew Lord, Alex Plante, Hunter Tremblay (he is with the team will probably play sometime this weekend).
Healthy scratches are Kirill Tulupov, Ryan Martindale, Tyler Pitlick.
Coach Nelson said listening to Omark/Lander/Paajarvi talk to each other today in practice sounded like machine gun fire they were blabbing so fast all at once. 
Yann Danis with the start in net.
Anton Lander takes a holding penalty just a couple minutes into the game.
Peoria opens the scoring on the Lander penalty to take a 1-0 lead.
Tanner House busts in with a good shot on net that the goalie had to squeeze under his arm.
Peoria scores again on a tic-tac-toe scoring play on an even strength marker to make it 2-0 for the Rivermen.
Former Oiler Danny Syvret was in on both Peoria goals.
Paajarvi turns on the jets and through a seam on the right side of the ice for a good scoring chance. Magnus was chopped down on the play and the Barons are headed to their first power play of the game.
Coach Nelson goes with 5 forwards on the power play with Lander, Hartikainen, Green, Omark and Paajarvi making up the top PP unit. Peoria with a good short handed scoring chance seconds in. The Rivermen kill off the penalty and I do not think the OKC power play even got a shot on net.
Barons back on the PK. Colten Teubert with a big hit on the penalty kill and it results in the puck coming loose and cleared. A Peoria player had Yann Danis down and out, an empty net to shoot at but fumbled the puck and blew the opportunity.
I think OKC is honestly missing both Hunter Tremblay and Ryan O'Marra out there. They were the two rocks on the on PK and settled things down at even strength too. At least Tremblay will be back soon.
Lander and Paajarvi each had a shot on net in the first, no shots yet for Omark. But overall a quiet period for that explosive line, still getting used to their new linemates I am sure.

Tristan Grant gets in a scrap with Peoria enforcer Anthony Peluso. Sounded like a fairly even one with both guys tying up each others arms and blocking punches. Think Grant started that one to try and get his club fired up a little bit.
Tanner House with a slapper in on net that the goalie deflects out of play. Off of that face off though OKC scores to cut the Peoria lead in half to 2-1.
Goal scored by Ryan Keller with assists to Tanner House & Antti Tyrvainen.
Paajarvi sets up Harski in the slot but the goalie tips the puck away from Teemu at the last second. Magnus now out with Vandevelde and Hartikainen.
Antti Tyrvainen busts in for a good hard slapper on net.
The Lander/Omark line gets pinned in their own zone for most of an entire shift.
Starting to get some end to end play going both ways now but tipped a little in the Rivermen's favour.
Lander sets up Bryan Helmer for shot from the point that goalie holds on to. Off the face off Teubert to Ryan Keller who had a dangerous scoring chance in close.
Barons headed to the penalty kill yet again. Peoria with good pressure early on their power play. Antti Tyrvainen (who has started killing penalties recently) with some good work as he steals the puck away from a player, rushes up the ice and blasts a good shot on net and in the process draws a penalty and takes away the Peoria man advantage.
Paajarvi with a good defensive play in the dying seconds that would have sprung a Peoria player in on net.

Danny Syvret strikes again seconds into the period setting up another goal increasing the Rivermen lead to 3-1.
Only seconds later the Barons score to slice the lead back down to one with 3-2 score now.
Goal scored by Mark Acrobello with the lone assist to Ryan Keller.
Omark sets up Teubert for a shot on net, but the puck is tipped on the way in and goes just over the net.
Some back and forth play for a while with neither team doing much of note.
Peoria rips a drive past the glove hand of Danis and apparently some puck watching going on for the Barons. Rivermen now lead 4-2.
Tanner House tries to hit a streaking Tyrvainen but turns over the puck in the middle of the ice for a nice scoring chance on Danis.
My feed cut out for a few minutes...when it came back House is in the penalty box and OKC back on the PK yet again.
Ryan Keller with a good scoring chance on goal and Bryan Rodney follows up his rebound with a another shot and the Riverman goalie had to be sharp.
Not as much jump as I thought the team would have after that rest lately.
OKC pulls their goalie.
Some pretty good pressure from the Barons with extra attacker and Dylan Yeo rips a dangerous shot just wide of the net. Paajarvi with a shot in the dying seconds.
The Barons lose 4-2.
Some notable shots on goal totals on the night:
Keller 4
Harski 3
House 3
Cornet 2
Paajarvi 2
Lander 1
Omark 0
