Top Oilers News

  • Oilers' Trent Frederic: Suffers injury during practice

    Frederic exited Wednesday's practice after suffering an undisclosed injury, Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

    Brar believes Frederic was struck in the face with the puck. The 27-year-old Frederic has two goals, three points, 25 PIM and 71 hits in 30 appearances this season. If he can't play Thursday versus Detroit, then Edmonton might need to call a forward up from the minors.

  • Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Deposits goal in comeback effort

    Podkolzin scored a goal on three shots, added three hits and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sabres.

    Podkolzin continues to be a strong supplementary player to the Oilers' stars. He's earned three goals and two assists over his last seven outings to make the most of his turn on the second line. For the season, the 24-year-old winger is at six goals, 13 points, 47 shots on net, 89 hits, 19 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating across 30 appearances. Podkolzin should be on the fantasy radar in most formats, especially those that reward the rough stuff.

  • Oilers' Connor McDavid: Helps salvage overtime loss

    McDavid scored twice on six shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sabres.

    McDavid struck 10 seconds into the third period to get the Oilers on the board, and he tied the contest with two seconds left in regulation time. He's racked up five goals and three assists over his last three outings, though he wasn't able to guide the Oilers to a third straight win. For the season, the superstar center is at 16 goals, 44 points, 93 shots on net and a minus-4 rating across 30 contests.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Loses in overtime

    Skinner stopped 24 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sabres.

    Skinner continues to alternate between wins and losses, but this one at least got the Oilers a standings point. It didn't look good early, as they trailed 3-0 after two periods, but the offense rallied throughout the third to tie the game. Skinner is now 10-8-4 with a 2.91 GAA and an .887 save percentage over 22 starts this season. The Oilers face a tougher test in Thursday's home game against the Red Wings, and Skinner's ongoing inconsistency makes him tough to trust in fantasy.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Facing Sabres

    Skinner will patrol the home crease against Buffalo on Tuesday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Skinner is coming off a 19-save performance in Saturday's 6-2 win over Winnipeg. He has a 10-8-3 record with two shutouts, a 2.86 GAA and an .889 save percentage in 21 appearances this season. Buffalo is tied for 18th in the league with 2.97 goals per game this year.

  • Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Returning closer to Christmas

    Kapanen (lower body) will be back "around Christmas time," according to head coach Kris Klobach, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports Monday.

    Kapanen has already been out of action for the Oilers' last 23 games due to his lower-body problem. When healthy, the veteran winger should be in the mix for a middle-six role, but that looks like it will have to wait until around the Christmas break. Given the extra time off, it would probably make sense to keep Kapanen out of the lineup until Dec. 27 versus Calgary.

  • Oilers' Jake Walman: Considered week-to-week

    Walman (undisclosed) is week-to-week, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV on Monday.

    Walman has already missed the last six games, as his injury has lingered longer than expected. At this point, his return may not arrive until after the Christmas break, but it's still unclear when he will be ready to play. Walman has three goals, 10 points, 23 shots on net and 31 blocked shots in 17 appearances this season.

  • Oilers' Jack Roslovic: Expected back around Christmas

    The Oilers announced Monday that Roslovic (undisclosed) will likely be in the mix to return around Christmas, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Roslovic has been sidelined for just over a week due to his undisclosed injury, and the issue is expected to sideline him for approximately a month. Prior to his absence, Roslovic had recorded 10 goals, eight assists, eight hits, eight PIM and seven blocked shots while averaging 17:20 of ice time over 23 appearances.

  • Oilers' Noah Philp: Returns to practice Monday

    Philp (upper body) returned to practice Monday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Although Philp was back at practice Monday, he's expected to require at least another week before he's in the mix to return to game action. The 27-year-old has been on long-term injured reserve since mid-November due to an upper-body injury. He made 15 appearances prior to his absence, recording two goals, an assist, 24 hits, four PIM and two blocked shots while averaging 10:02 of ice time.

  • Oilers' Connor McDavid: Deals two assists

    McDavid logged a pair of assists, five shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

    McDavid has six points over his last two games. The 28-year-old's production will be a key part of the narrative as the Oilers look to dig themselves out of another slow start to a season. Even as the team around him has struggled at times, he's been good with 14 goals, 28 helpers, 18 power-play points, 87 shots and a minus-6 rating across 29 appearances.

  • Oilers' Curtis Lazar: Pots goal in Saturday's win

    Lazar scored a goal and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

    Lazar got his first goal since his season debut versus the Devils on Oct. 18. The 30-year-old has been back for four games after missing four due to an upper-body injury. Lazar has been exclusively in a bottom-six role when he plays, and he has two goals, five shots on net, 24 hits, nine blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 13 appearances. Fantasy managers can find more productive depth forwards on the waiver wire.

  • Oilers' David Tomasek: Deposits goal in win

    Tomasek scored a goal in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

    Tomasek was one of 10 Oilers forwards to get a point in this contest, stretching their lead to 6-1 in the third period. He had been scratched for the previous three games, but he stepped in for Connor Clattenburg (eye) on the fourth line. With Clattenburg set to miss a week, Tomasek has a chance to reclaim a steadier spot in the lineup. The 29-year-old has managed three goals, two assists, 24 shots on net, 17 hits and a minus-5 rating over 19 appearances in his first NHL campaign.

  • Oilers' Matt Savoie: Tallies in big win

    Savoie scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

    Savoie has three goals over his last two games. His tally at 7:24 of the first period Saturday ended up being the game-winner in this blowout. The 21-year-old took some time to adjust to the NHL, but he's now at six goals, 10 points, 42 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 29 appearances. He's worth considering in all fantasy formats as long as he can maintain a top-six role at even strength.

  • Oilers' Ryan Nugent-Hopkins: Scores early in win

    Nugent-Hopkins scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

    Nugent-Hopkins tallied at 3:00 of the first period, setting the tone for the Oilers' second blowout win in a row. He has two goals, four helpers, seven shots and a minus-2 rating over four contests since coming back from an undisclosed injury. The 32-year-old playmaking forward has seven goals, 15 helpers, 13 power-play points, 30 shots on net and a minus-13 rating across 20 appearances this season. Even with the time he's missed, he could still challenge for the second 70-point campaign of his career.

  • Oilers' Evan Bouchard: Picks up pair of points

    Bouchard scored a power-play goal, dished an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

    Bouchard has two goals and eight helpers over his last six games. The 26-year-old was part of the Oilers' four-goal burst in the first period. The defenseman finding a rhythm on offense has elevated the team's scoring lately. He's up to five goals, 27 points (eight on the power play), 73 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 29 outings this season in a top-pairing role.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Goal, assist in win

    Draisaitl scored a goal and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

    Draisaitl had his third multi-point effort in the last four games, and he's collected three goals and five helpers in that span. The 30-year-old's involvement was in a four-goal first period for the Oilers, who were able to dominate a second straight contest. The superstar is up to 17 goals, 37 points (17 on the power play), 71 shots on net, 17 hits and a plus-6 rating over 29 appearances this season.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Notches 10th win

    Skinner stopped 19 of 21 shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Jets.

    Skinner has alternated wins and losses over his last six games. He's given up 15 goals in that span, which includes his lone shutout of the season. The 27-year-old is at 10-8-3 with a 2.86 GAA and an .889 save percentage through 21 starts. The Oilers' offense has 19 goals over its last four games, and if the team is heating up, that'll make it easier for Skinner to at least collect wins even if his ratios remain mediocre. The Oilers have a favorable home matchup ahead as they host the Sabres on Tuesday, though Buffalo tagged Skinner for four goals on 27 shots in a 5-1 loss for Edmonton on Nov. 17.

  • Oilers' Connor Clattenburg: Will miss one week

    Clattenburg (eye) will miss at least one week in addition to his absence from Saturday's game versus the Jets, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Clattenburg apparently sustained the injury versus the Kraken on Thursday and will be forced to miss multiple games. The winger has one goal, 13 PIM and 17 hits over his first five NHL outings. When he returns, he'll likely slip back into a fourth-line role.
