Derek Ryan - Puts up helper Ryan logged an assist in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Ryan has two goals and an assist over his last two games. The 36-year-old forward is capable of chipping in offense in small bursts, but his career-low average ice time of 10:11 per contest this season has further limited his chances to contribute. He's at four points, 13 shots on net, eight hits and a plus-1 rating through 17 appearances.

NOVEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ryan McLeod - Generates assist Monday McLeod recorded an assist in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Panthers.

Impact McLeod earned a helper on Evander Kane's first-period tally. The 24-year-old McLeod has earned all three of his assists this season over the last eight games. He remains in a bottom-six role, averaging 14:58 of ice time per contest. The center has picked up 21 shots on net, 15 hits, four PIM and a minus-4 rating over 17 outings.

NOVEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Evan Bouchard - Notches assist in loss Bouchard posted an assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Bouchard helped out on Connor McDavid's first-period marker. With a goal and six helpers over the last six games, Bouchard remains productive from the blue line, at least in the offensive zone. He's at 17 points (seven on the power play), 54 shots on net, 25 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 17 appearances.

NOVEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Leon Draisaitl - Supplies helper Monday Draisaitl recorded an assist, three shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Draisaitl has maintained a point-per-game pace with two goals and seven assists over nine games in November. The 28-year-old is up to 22 points, 55 shots on net, 22 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 17 contests overall. The Oilers are still scuffling near the quarter-pole of the campaign, but it's fair to give Draisaitl the benefit of the doubt when it comes to finding an extra level on offense.

NOVEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Evander Kane - Tallies in Monday's loss Kane scored a goal on four shots, logged four hits and added 14 PIM in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Kane scored in the first period, but his first of two minor penalties allowed the Panthers to jump-start their comeback on the power play. The 32-year-old winger has five goals and two assists over his last five contests. For the season, he's at 16 points, 55 shots on net, 63 hits, 38 PIM and a minus-4 rating. He's never topped 57 points in a full season, but he's off to a blistering pace in 2023-24.

NOVEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Connor McDavid - Two tallies in Monday's loss McDavid scored two goals, one on a penalty shot, in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Panthers.

Impact He gave the Oilers a 1-0 lead early in the first period and a 3-2 lead early in the second, but the team's offense dried up the rest of the way. It was the first multi-goal performance of the season for McDavid, who has a disappointing (by his standards) six goals and 15 points in 15 games, but he's lit the lamp four times in the last four contests as he begins to heat up.

NOVEMBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Calvin Pickard - Loses in season debut Pickard stopped 27 of 31 shots in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Edmonton grabbed a 3-2 lead early in the second period on a Connor McDavid penalty shot, but Florida tied it up just over a minute later and never looked back. Pickard didn't get much help from his defense and never looked settled in the crease as he made his first NHL start of the season, but that's been par for the course for Oilers netminders so far. The 31-year-old, who was called up from AHL Bakersfield almost two weeks ago, will likely remain an infrequently used backup behind Stuart Skinner -- Edmonton doesn't play on back-to-back nights until just before Christmas.
