Janmark logged an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
Janmark ended his eight-game point drought with a helper on a Curtis Lazar tally in the second period. The 33-year-old Janmark has struggled to be consistent on offense from a bottom-six role this season. He's now at seven points, 19 shots on net, 16 PIM and a minus-4 rating across 27 appearances, which just won't cut it for fantasy managers.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Earns pair of assists
Rotowire
Podkolzin notched two assists and three hits in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
Podkolzin snapped an eight-game point drought with this effort. He had a hand in goals by linemates Leon Draisaitl and Kasperi Kapanen, and that new-look second line could stick together after Tuesday's success. Podkolzin now has 18 points, 64 shots on net, 130 hits, 25 blocked shots, 25 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 43 appearances, giving him some upside as a depth forward in fantasy.

Oilers' Curtis Lazar: Finds twine Tuesday
Rotowire
Lazar scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
Lazar had been scratched for six of the previous eight games. His goal Tuesday snapped a seven-game point drought as well, and it was just his second point since he returned from an upper-body injury in November. The 30-year-old is now at three goals, 10 shots, 44 hits, 12 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 21 appearances this season. Adam Henrique (undisclosed) is set to miss some time, which should keep the door open for Lazar to occupy a fourth-line role in the short-term, but he doesn't do enough to help in most fantasy formats.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Earns two points in return
Rotowire
Kapanen scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and logged five hits in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
Kapanen missed 36 games due to a lower-body injury, but he was able to shake off the rust quickly in a second-line role. He scored the Oilers' fourth goal and assisted Leon Draisaitl on the fifth one. With the effort, Kapanen is at four points, seven shots on net, 21 hits and a minus-2 rating over seven appearances this season. He may fly under the radar in fantasy due to his lengthy absence, but he's worth considering if he stays alongside Draisaitl moving forward.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Three-point effort in win
Rotowire
Draisaitl scored a goal on three shots and added two assists, including one on the power play, in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
Draisaitl had gone four games without a goal before lighting the lamp in the third period. He's scored in just four of his last 16 games, earning six goals, 23 assists and 53 shots on net in that span. The 30-year-old superstar is up to 21 goals, 60 points, 120 shots on net and a plus-3 rating across 43 appearances. He's not on pace to match his career-best 128-point campaign from 2022-23, but he could get close to that mark with a strong second half.

Oilers' Connor McDavid: Paces offense with hat trick
Rotowire
McDavid scored three goals on 10 shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
McDavid had the Oilers' first two goals -- a power-play tally in the first period and a penalty shot in the second. He also closed out the scoring at 19:03 of the third to earn his second hat trick of the campaign. His other hatty started his active 16-game point streak, a span in which his offense has taken off with 17 goals and 22 assists, including 18 power-play points. The superstar center is now at 28 goals, 75 points (32 on the power play), 161 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 43 contests this season.

Oilers' Connor Ingram: Back on track with win
Rotowire
Ingram stopped 24 of 26 shots in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
Ingram had allowed nine goals on 61 shots over his last two outings, both losses. He was better in this one, keeping the Predators off the board until they scored twice in a 15-second span during the third period, though the Oilers' lead was never in real danger. Ingram is now 3-2-0 on the season, and he's done enough to at least earn a split of the crease with Calvin Pickard while Tristan Jarry (lower body) is on long-term injured reserve for at least the next week. The Oilers' next game is Thursday in Winnipeg, and it's not yet clear which netminder will get the nod for that one.
Henrique (undisclosed) is set to miss a little time after getting hurt in Tuesday's game versus the Predators, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Henrique doesn't have an official status, but he will be out for at least some time. The Oilers will put either Trent Frederic or Andrew Mangiapane back into the lineup while Henrique is out, and Matt Savoie will join Jack Roslovic and Isaac Howard in Henrique's spot.

Oilers' Tristan Jarry: Shifts to LTIR
Rotowire
Jarry (lower body) was moved to long-term injured reserve Tuesday.
Jarry has already missed seven games due to his lower-body issue, so his shift to LTIR doesn't significantly impact his recovery timeline. Since being acquired by the Oilers via trade, the 30-year-old backstop went 3-0-0 despite a 3.08 GAA. Until Jarry is given the all-clear, Connor Ingram and Calvin Pickard figure to hold down the netminding duties.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Returning against Preds
Rotowire
Kapanen (lower body) is expected to be back in the lineup versus Nashville on Tuesday.
Kapanen will rejoin the lineup for the first time since Oct. 19 against the Red Wings, a stretch of 36 games on the shelf due to his lower-body injury. The 29-year-old winger looks set to take a second-line role alongside Leon Draisaitl, an assignment that should help Kapanen start producing offensively.

Oilers' Connor Ingram: Between pipes versus Nashville
Rotowire
Ingram will face the Predators at home Tuesday, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Ingram has allowed a total of nine goals on 61 shots (.852 save percentage) and is 0-2-0 across his last starts after starting his 2025-26 campaign with back-to-back victories. The 28-year-old will continue to work in tandem with Calvin Pickard until Tristan Jarry (lower body) is ready to return to the lineup. As for Tuesday's opponent, the Predators are 6-2-0 in their last eight games, a stretch in which they have generated 25 goals.
Hutson has chipped in one goal, three shots on net and one blocked shot in four NHL outings this season. He also has 19 goals and 32 points in 26 AHL appearances during the 2025-26 campaign.

Oilers' Jake Walman: Back at practice
Rotowire
Walman (lower body) participated in Monday's practice, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Walman still hasn't been given clearance to return to the lineup, but the Oilers hope to have him back in the fold next week, according to Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton. The 29-year-old Walman has missed the last 19 games. He has contributed three goals, 10 points, 23 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and seven hits in 17 appearances this season.

Oilers' Evan Bouchard: Tallies power-play marker
Rotowire
Bouchard scored a power-play goal on four shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
Bouchard ended a two-game skid with the goal. That was the first time he's been held off the scoresheet in consecutive games since he opened the year with no points in six outings. The defenseman is up to eight goals, 38 points (14 on the power play), 107 shots on net, 59 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating across 42 appearances this season. His dry spells are unlikely to last long as part of the Oilers' vaunted top power-play unit.

Oilers' Connor McDavid: Two points in Saturday's loss
Rotowire
McDavid produced an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
The 28-year-old superstar did his best to pull his team out of an early 3-0 hole, but McDavid didn't get enough help to complete a comeback. He has erupted for 14 goals and 36 points, including 17 points (four goals, 13 assists) with the man advantage, during his 15-game point streak.

Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Ambushed by Philly
Rotowire
Pickard turned aside 24 of 28 shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers, with Philadelphia's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
The veteran netminder got very little defensive help as the visitors jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first period, and the Oilers' offense wasn't able to close the gap. Pickard has started three of seven games since Tristan Jarry (lower body) landed on IR, going 1-2-0 and allowing nine goals on 106 shots (.915 save percentage) while splitting duties in the crease with Connor Ingram.
Podkolzin (illness) will play against Philadelphia on Saturday, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Podkolzin won't miss any game action after being absent from Friday's practice. He has accounted for nine goals, 16 points, 62 shots on net and 126 hits in 41 appearances this season. With Podkolzin available to play, Andrew Mangiapane will be a healthy scratch.
