Summoned from AHL Caggiula was recalled from AHL Bakersfield on Thursday.

Impact The Oilers have some question marks ahead of Thursday's tilt against the Wild as Zach Hyman and Viktor Arvidsson are day-to-day with undisclosed injuries and there are no guarantees that either will be available to suit up against Minnesota. Caggiula has one assist in two NHL games this season, and managed five goals and nine points in 11 games with Bakersfield before his recall.

Sent down Wednesday Brown was reassigned to AHL Bakersfield on Wednesday, per PuckPedia.

Impact Brown has no points, three hits, four blocked shots and seven PIM over two appearances. The 30-year-old defenseman will return to Bakersfield as the Oilers seem likely to go back to a traditional six-defensemen lineup once winger Kasperi Kapanen is ready to make his team debut after being plucked off waivers from the Blues.

Snags assist Ryan logged an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Ryan's two helpers this season have come over the last six games. He's not facing a challenge for playing time since the Oilers are missing Viktor Arvidsson (undisclosed) and Darnell Nurse (upper body) and don't have much cap space to work with. The 37-year-old Ryan has added just 12 shots on net, 10 blocked shots, nine hits, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating through 18 appearances. He may eventually get pushed for his fourth-line spot once Kasperi Kapanen, who was claimed off waivers from the Blues, joins the team.

Ends goal drought Tuesday Nugent-Hopkins scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Senators.

Impact The goal was Nugent-Hopkins' second of the season, ending an 11-game goal drought. He has shown some life lately, earning four points over his last six contests, but that's not particularly encouraging given his significant role with the Oilers. Overall, the 31-year-old forward has nine points (three on the power play), 40 shots on goal, six PIM and a minus-3 rating through 20 appearances.

Did not play in third period Hyman (undisclosed) did not play in the third period of a 5-2 win over Ottawa.

Impact There was an awkward hit near the blue line which caused Hyman to wince and move somewhat gingerly. It was almost as though he torqued something in his torso. We'll find out tomorrow or the next day. Vasily Podkolzin had already replaced Hyman on the top line with Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, and that will continue if Hyman can't go.

Dances through D on beauty goal Bouchard had a goal and two assists in a 5-2 win over Ottawa on Tuesday night.

Impact The goal was a Sportcenter candidate. He skated through the neutral zone, toe-dragged Sens defender Thomas Chabot in the slot, and lifted the puck over Linus Ullmark's glove in tight. Bouchard isn't scoring at the point-per-game pace he racked up last season, and that has made him a focal point for fan ire. Still, he has five goals, 13 points and 53 shots in 20 games, which would put him in the low 50s in points for this season.

Snaps seven-game point drought Podkolzin picked two apples Tuesday in a 5-2 win over Ottawa.

Impact Podkolzin snapped a seven-game point drought with the helpers and looked like a natural playing with Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. The winger has high-end potential and could become a fantasy star if he can show some consistency with the Oilers' big two. He'll need to start shooting more, though -- Podkolzin hasn't scored a goal since the 2022-23 season, and he has just 27 shots in 20 games.

Only two goals allowed in win Skinner made 27 saves in a 5-2 win over Ottawa on Tuesday.

Impact His teammates gave him a 3-1 lead in the first, and he never looked back. Skinner has had a rough start to 2023-24 and sits with a 6-5-2 record, 3.18 GAA and .881 save percentage. But he's gone 3-0-1 in his last four starts, and the Oilers are starting to surge a bit. Still, Skinner generally allows too many goals a game -- this was his third game in 13 starts this season with two or fewer goals allowed. He did turn last year around in a big way, so maybe he can do the same for 2024-25.

Among best ever against Sens Draisaitl had a goal and two assists in a 5-2 win against Ottawa on Tuesday.

Impact Draisaitl is second all-time in career points/game (min. 25 games) against the Sens with 1.48. Teammate Connor McDavid sits on top of that list with 1.80. Draisaitl has five goals and six assists in his last six games and 27, including 14 goals, in 20 games this season. It was the 43rd time that McDavid and Draisaitl each had at least three points in a game. That's the most among active duos in the NHL. Overall, he is one goal from the top of the sniper list in the NHL, and with Alex Ovechkin week-to-week with a lower leg injury, Draisaitl looks to climb to the top of that chart in short order.

Kryptonite for Sens McDavid had two goals and an assist in a 5-2 win over the Senators on Tuesday.

Impact McDavid has six goals in his last six games (14 points), and he's up to 24 points (nine goals, 15 assists) in 17 games this season. He always seems to step up against the Sens. McDavid has the highest career points/game (1.80) against Ottawa all-time. He's clearly kryptonite for the Sens.
