Oilers' Devon Levi: Slated to battle Kings
Levi will guard the road crease in Tuesday's clash against the Kings, per Oilers TV Reporter Paige Martin.
Levi has had an up and down start to the 2026-27 season, where he's struggled in some instances, but has managed to walk away from each of his three starts undefeated. Overall, the 24-year-old backstop has a 3-0-0 record, a 3.35 GAA and an .863 save percentage. He's a risky start in fantasy until he can showcase some consistency, but his flashes of upside and role as the Oilers' netminder make him a great stash in fantasy for the time being. He'll have a good chance to bounce back against the Kings offense Tuesday, as they currently rank 25th in the NHL with 2.50 goals per game.

Oilers' Jake Walman: Remains out against Kings
Walman (upper body) will not be available versus Los Angeles on Tuesday, Oilers' TV reporter Paige Martin reports.
Walman will be out of the lineup for his second straight game due to his upper-body problem. The 30-year-old blueliner will have to wait at least one more game before getting a chance to register his first point of the 2026-27 campaign. Even once Walman returns to action, he likely won't offer enough offensive upside to produce more than low-end fantasy value.

Oilers' Zach Hyman: Still unavailable Tuesday
Hyman (undisclosed) will not play in Tuesday's matchup with the Kings, Oilers' TV reporter Paige Martin reports.
Hyman will miss his fifth straight game due to his undisclosed injury, though head coach Mike Babcock told reporters he felt Hyman was close to playing. Once given the all-clear, the 34-year-old Hyman should move into a top-six role while also seeing minutes with the man advantage.

Oilers' Quinn Hutson: Tallies twice for Condors
Hutson scored two goals in AHL Bakersfield's 5-4 win over Calgary on Sunday.
Hutson has opened his second AHL campaign on a heater with five goals, one assist and 16 shots on net over four contests. The winger had 63 points over 67 regular-season outings as an AHL rookie last year. If he keeps producing, he could work his way into a call-up to the Oilers at some point.

Oilers' Alex Formenton: Pots goal Saturday
Formenton scored a goal on two shots, added four hits and blocked three shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.
Formenton has filled a middle-six role with the Oilers this season. The 27-year-old has a goal, two assists, six shots on net, 13 hits, five blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over five appearances. His ice time is likely to decrease once the Oilers' forward group gets healthier, which could begin to happen if Zach Hyman (undisclosed) returns Tuesday versus the Kings.

Oilers' Mattias Ekholm: Opens scoring Saturday
Ekholm scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.
Ekholm tallied the opening goal at 12:37 of the first period. The 36-year-old defenseman is seeing heavy minutes in a top-four role since the Oilers have gotten poor results from all iterations of their third pairing so far. Ekholm has two points, five shots on net, four hits, two blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-11 rating over five contests. He's topped the 30-point mark in each of the last five campaigns and should also maintain a strong plus-minus rating while recording a decent total in blocks.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Pots game-winner Saturday
Podkolzin scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 3-1 victory over the Sharks.
The 25-year-old is taking full advantage of his spot alongside Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. Saturday's tally was Podkolzin's fifth in five games to begin the season. He's racked up seven points in total, with three of those points (two goals, one helper) coming on the power play. If he maintains his top-line assignment for an extended stretch, Podkolzin could have a career year offensively.

Oilers' Tristan Jarry: Nabs first win of season
Jarry turned aside 19 shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.
The veteran netminder was sharp in his first win of the season, taking a shutout into the third period until finally getting beaten by Macklin Celebrini. Jarry has watched from the bench the last three games after coughing up six goals on 23 shots in the Oilers' opener, but Saturday's performance should put him back in the mix for starts alongside Devon Levi.

Oilers' Jake Walman: Sidelined for Saturday's clash
Walman (upper body) will not play in Saturday's road matchup against the Sharks, per Max Miller of NHL.com.
Head coach Mike Babcock mentioned that he believes Walman's injury isn't too serious, which was revealed by Janson Duench of The Athletic to be an upper-body issue. In Walman's absence, Shakir Mukhamadullin will appear in the Oilers lineup Saturday. The 30-year-old Walman is off to a slow start offensively in the 2026-27 regular-season, where he has a minus-3 rating, five shots on net and seven blocked shots across four appearances. His next opportunity to get back on the right foot is Tuesday's road game against the Kings.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Distributes four assists in win
Draisaitl recorded four assists, two shots on goal, two hits and a plus-4 rating in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.
Draisaitl played facilitator during the Oilers' five-goal second period, assisting on all of their even-strength tallies. All of the helpers were primary assists. Draisaitl hasn't gotten quite as much buzz as Connor McDavid or Evan Bouchard to start the year, but he's been virtually just as important. Draisaitl has three goals, six assists, 17 shots on net, three hits and a plus-8 rating over four contests this season.

Oilers' Kasperi Kapanen: Scores 100th career goal
Kapanen scored a power-play goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.
Kapanen's tally was the 100th of his career. The 30-year-old winger has earned three points this season, including two on the power play and one while shorthanded. He's currently filling in on the top power-play unit, which will be a short-term boost in value until the Oilers get Zach Hyman (undisclosed), Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (lower body) or Matt Savoie (lower body) back. Kapanen has added eight shots on net, five hits, three blocked shots and a minus-4 rating while skating on the second line at even strength.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Scores in Wednesday's win
Podkolzin scored a goal on three shots, added five hits and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.
Podkolzin continues to thrive on the Oilers' top line alongside the superstar duo of Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. The 25-year-old Podkolzin is riding a four-game point streak to start the season, earning four goals, two assists, 16 shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-6 rating. He's been one of the quickest risers in fantasy this season, and his hot start could help him stay in the top six all year.

Oilers' Connor McDavid: Stays hot in Wednesday's win
McDavid scored a goal, dished two assists (including one on the power play), added two hits and went plus-4 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.
McDavid has multiple points in all four of the Oilers' games this season. The 29-year-old superstar has three goals, nine assists, eight shots on net, four hits, three blocked shots and a plus-11 rating. McDavid is already in his usual spot atop the points leaderboard, though this pace is above even his lofty abilities. He'll be a force on offense all season as long as he avoids injuries.

Oilers' Evan Bouchard: Rattles off three more points
Bouchard scored twice on four shots, added a power-play assist and went plus-4 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.
Bouchard was right in the middle of the Oilers' five-goal second period. The 26-year-old defenseman is the first blueliner to cross the 10-point mark this year, doing so with six goals, five assists, 16 shots on net and a plus-10 rating over four appearances. There's been no slow start on offense in Edmonton this season, and Bouchard's strong play cements his status as one of the top blueliners in the league.

Oilers' Devon Levi: Overcomes rough first period
Levi allowed two goals on 31 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.
Beckett Sennecke scored twice in the first period, but Levi locked in over the final 40 minutes. The Oilers' offense also stepped up with a five-goal second period to give him support. Levi has won all three of his starts so far despite allowing 10 goals on 73 shots in those games. The Oilers' next game is Saturday versus the Sharks, and if Levi gets the start and plays well in that one, he may be considered the early leader for the No. 1 job between the pipes in Edmonton.

Oilers' Colton Dach: On injured reserve
Dach (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.
Dach's placement might be retroactive to when he last played in Edmonton's 3-1 win over Seattle on Saturday. He has no points, two PIM, eight hits and three blocks in three outings this season. His injury coincides with the Oilers' acquisition of Filip Hallander, who might draw into the lineup for Edmonton against Anaheim on Wednesday. If Hallander isn't available so soon after being traded, then Mathieu Joseph might play instead due to the spot in the lineup vacated by Dach.
