Oilers' Jason Dickinson: Status uncertain for Thursday
Dickinson's status for Thursday's game against the Mammoth is up in the air after he exited midway through the Oilers' morning skate for an undisclosed reason, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Dickinson missed the start of the regular season due to a foot injury, but he's been back in action for the past three games, recording no goals, an assist, three hits and three blocked shots while averaging 12:12 of ice time. It's unclear whether his early exit from Thursday's morning skate is related to his previous injury, but he'll presumably be monitored by the team's medical staff in the hours leading up to Thursday's puck drop.

Oilers' Zach Hyman: Remains shelved Thursday
Hyman (undisclosed) will not play in Thursday's home clash against the Mammoth, per Mark Spector of Sportsnet.
Hyman is slated to miss his sixth consecutive clash with an undisclosed injury. The 34-year-old winger posted a plus-1 rating, three shots on net and two hits in his lone outing of the 2026-27 season. He'll likely continue to carry the day-to-day tag until his return, with his next chance of coming back being Saturday's game in Utah.

Oilers' Ryan Nugent-Hopkins: Remains unavailable Thursday
Nugent-Hopkins (lower body) will be sidelined against Utah on Thursday, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.
Nugent-Hopkins has been skating with his teammates but will not be ready to get into the lineup Thursday. In 72 regular-season games last year, the 33-year-old center produced 20 goals and 36 assists, including 29 power-play points. Once given the all-clear, Nugent-Hopkins figures to slot into a top-six role while also seeing power-play minutes.

Oilers' Jake Walman: Won't play Thursday
Walman (upper body) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Mammoth, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.
Walman continues to deal with an upper-body injury, and he'll be unavailable for a third consecutive game Thursday. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return to game action, but his next opportunity to do so will be in a rematch against Utah on Saturday.

Oilers' Devon Levi: Drawing start Thursday
Levi will start Thursday's home game against the Mammoth, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.
Levi has picked up wins in each of his first four starts of the season, and the Oilers will continue to ride the hot hand against Utah on Thursday, as he'll start for the fifth time in the team's last six games. The 24-year-old has posted a 2.76 GAA and a .903 save percentage across his four starts to begin the 2026-27 campaign.

Oilers' Ty Emberson: Chips in with helper
Emberson notched an assist in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kings.
This was Emberson's first point in four outings this season. The defenseman has added four hits, three blocked shots and no shots on net. The 26-year-old is playing regularly in the absence of Jake Walman (upper body), but the last spot on the blue line will likely come down to Emberson or Shakir Mukhamadullin once the Oilers' defense is back to full health. Emberson had 12 points, 107 hits and 106 blocked shots over 72 regular-season outings last year.

Oilers' Evan Bouchard: Dishes pair of helpers
Bouchard notched two assists, including one on the power play, and added two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kings.
This was Bouchard's fourth multi-point effort of the campaign. The 26-year-old has been arguably the best fantasy defenseman to start the season, earning six goals and eight assists across six contests. He's also racked up 18 shots on net, five hits, five blocked shots and a plus-14 rating. In the 2025-26 regular season, he earned 33 of his 95 points on the power play, but he's picked up just three of 14 points with the man advantage so far this year, which bodes well for sustainability.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Goal, assist in win
Draisaitl scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kings.
Draisaitl saw his point streak snapped Saturday versus the Sharks, but he bounced back well. This was his third multi-point effort of the campaign. The German superstar has four goals, seven assists, 24 shots on net, four hits and a plus-11 rating over six appearances this season. With most of his playing time coming at right wing to open the year, he should have some extra positional flexibility in most fantasy formats.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Scores twice in Tuesday's win
Podkolzin scored two goals, one on the power play and the other into an empty-net, and added six hits in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kings.
Podkolzin's point streak is up to six games. He contributed seven goals, two assists, 20 shots on net, 27 hits and a plus-9 rating, and his four power-play points are already a career high for a single season. The 25-year-old has been superb on the Oilers' top line. While Zach Hyman (undisclosed) is nearing a return, Podkolzin is unlikely to face a significant role reduction given his hot start.

Oilers' Connor McDavid: Shines in 800th career game
McDavid scored a goal on two shots, added three assists, logged two PIM and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kings.
McDavid dominated in the 800th regular-season game of his career. The 29-year-old superstar was in on all of the Oilers' goals for his fifth multi-point effort over six games this season. He's earned four goals, 13 assists, 14 shots on net, seven hits and a plus-14 rating in 2026-27. In his career, he has 1,237 points, good for an average of 1.55 points per game.

Oilers' Devon Levi: Impresses under heavy pressure
Levi stopped 39 of 40 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kings.
While Levi's season debut was a dud, he's followed it up with some sharp work. He's allowed just four goals on 91 shots over his last three outings, though his season stats remain weighed down by giving up seven goals in his first game. The 24-year-old looks to have settled in well and could get a chance to run with the starting job if he keeps stringing together wins. The Oilers have a home-and-home set against the Mammoth up next, beginning with Thursday's game in Edmonton.

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.
