Sam Gagner - Won't play in preseason games Gagner will not play in preseason games and will be evaluated in October, Jim Matheson of The Edmonton Journal reports. Impact Gagner is evidently still recovering from hip surgery he underwent in the offseason. He will practice with the Oilers, but it appears there's a good chance he'll play his first games of the season with AHL Bakersfield before being an option for the NHL club.
