Regula posted an assist, two blocked shots and two PIM in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Regula missed two games due to an illness, but it didn't sap his momentum. He's earned three helpers over his last four outings while seeing steady bottom-four usage. The 25-year-old blueliner should be able to stay in the lineup over Riley Stillman until Jake Walman (lower body) is able to return. Regula has three assists, 13 shots on net, 19 PIM, 14 hits, 28 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating over 21 appearances, so he's not expected to be much of a factor in fantasy.

Regula has two assists, 17 PIM, 14 hits and 26 blocks in 20 outings this season. Riley Stillman is set to make his Oilers debut due to Regula's absence. The 25-year-old Regula is day-to-day, so he might be an option Saturday in Minnesota.

Oilers' Alec Regula: Gets first point of season
Rotowire
Regula logged an assist and went plus-3 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Maple Leafs.
Regula finally earned his first point as an Oiler after being plucked off waivers one year and two days ago. He missed all of 2024-25 with a knee injury and dealt with an undisclosed injury in October, so his acclimation to the Oilers hasn't been easy. He's at one helper, 11 shots on net, 11 PIM, 12 hits, 19 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 18 appearances. He's virtually guaranteed a spot in the lineup following the Oilers' dealings Friday, which sent Brett Kulak to Pittsburgh and brought Spencer Stastney in from Nashville. Once Jake Walman (lower body) is healthy, Regula will compete with Ty Emberson and Stastney to round out the Oilers' blue line.

Regula is dealing with an undisclosed injury that will sideline him for at least Tuesday's matchup with the Rangers, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.
Regula is still expected to play at some point during the Oilers' five-game road trip. Depending on how long the 25-year-old blueliner is going to be out, he could be placed on injured reserve to clear a roster spot for Jake Walman (undisclosed), who is expected back for Thursday's matchup versus the Islanders.

Oilers' Alec Regula: Still on season-opening IR
Rotowire
Regula (knee) is still on season-opening injured reserve despite being waived by Boston and claimed by Edmonton on Wednesday, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports Saturday.
An injured player usually can't be put on waivers, but Regula is a rare exception because he signed off on the move with the intent to complete his rehab with AHL Providence. Edmonton could rescind the claim on Regula because he's not healthy enough to play. However, the Oilers like Regula's upside and plan to keep him around. The 24-year-old defender had four goals, 26 points and 41 PIM in 55 regular-season appearances with Providence in 2023-24.

Oilers' Alec Regula: Claimed off waivers
Rotowire
Regula was claimed off waivers Wednesday by Edmonton from Boston.
Regula hasn't played yet in 2024-25 because of a knee injury. The 24-year-old defenseman had four goals, 26 points and 41 PIM in 55 regular-season appearances with AHL Providence. Given how much of the campaign Regula has missed, he might get into some practices with the Oilers before Edmonton considers putting him into a game. If he does play for Edmonton, it would probably be as a member of the third pairing.

Bruins' Alec Regula: Snags two-way deal
Rotowire
Regula signed a one-year, two-way contract with Boston on Friday.
Regula has logged just 22 NHL games, with the most recent outing coming during the 2022-23 campaign when he was with the Blackhawks. The fact that the 23-year-old defenseman racked up 26 points in 55 games for AHL Providence last year could earn him a look during training camp, but fantasy players should be expecting Regula to spend the bulk of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors with AHL Providence.

Blackhawks' Alec Regula: Scores first NHL goal
Rotowire
Regula scored his first career goal in Monday's 5-2 loss to Calgary.
Regula snuck a wrist shot through some traffic to register his first career point in his 13th NHL game. The 21-year-old Michigan native may not be the most exciting prospect in hockey, but Regula does offer some interesting upside for a 6-foot-4 defenseman. In 40 games with AHL Rockford, he logged four goals and 21 assists. With the Blackhawks rebuilding, Regula could get an extended look alongside Jake McCabe on the second defensive pair and on the second power play unit.
