GAME LOG

Mattias Janmark - On track to play Janmark (undisclosed) took line rushes in warmups, suggesting he'll return to the lineup Wednesday in Game 4 versus the Golden Knights, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports...
Impact The Oilers often have a fluid lineup, so warmups must be taken with a grain of salt, but it appears the decision for the last scratch will be on defense. Janmark has dealt with multiple injuries in the postseason, and he has one assist, three shots on goal and three hits over two appearances in the playoffs. He's likely to see no more than bottom-six minutes.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Stuart Skinner - Strong in Game 4 win Skinner stopped 25 of 26 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact Skinner has alternated strong and poor starts in the second round. This was the second time he's managed to limit the Golden Knights to a single goal, but he's given up nine tallies over his other two appearances. The 24-year-old netminder is now 5-4 in the postseason despite a lackluster .895 save percentage. It appears he still has the trust of head coach Jay Woodcroft, so expect Skinner to start Game 5 in Vegas on Friday.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins - One of each in win Nugent-Hopkins scored a goal on four shots and added a power-play assist in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact The tally extended the Oilers' lead to 4-0 in the second period, and it was his first goal of the postseason. Nugent-Hopkins has made up for his lack of scoring by continuing to be a high-end playmaker, especially with the man advantage -- he's up to seven helpers (six on the power play) through 10 playoff contests. The forward has added 19 shots on net, 11 hits and a minus-4 rating in a top-six role.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Evan Bouchard - Cashes in on power play Bouchard scored a power-play goal on three shots and added five hits in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact Bouchard saw his 11-game, 18-point streak end Monday in Game 3, but he was right back on the scoresheet with the game-winning tally Wednesday. The defenseman is up to four goals and 11 helpers through 10 playoff contests, and 13 of his 15 points have come on the power play. He's added 22 shots on net, 21 hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Connor McDavid - Dishes two helpers in win McDavid recorded two assists and four shots on goal in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact McDavid set up Evan Bouchard for a power-play goal in the first period and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins for an even-strength tally in the second. This was a good bounce-back for McDavid after he was held off the scoresheet in Game 3 on Monday. The center is up to five tallies, 12 helpers, 10 power-play points, 41 shots on net, 25 hits and a minus-1 rating through 10 playoff contests.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Nick Bjugstad - Tallies on wraparound Bjugstad scored a goal on two shots and doled out nine hits in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact Bjugstad was back in a bottom-six role, though he still saw 13:54 of ice time, in line with his usage throughout the postseason. The 30-year-old has three goals, 15 shots on net, 41 hits and 16 PIM through 10 playoff contests. His physical and defensive play should keep him involved in the Oilers' game plan a bit more than his spot on the depth chart would suggest.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Mattias Ekholm - Scores in Game 4 win Ekholm scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact Ekholm tallied the Oilers' third goal of the first period. The 32-year-old defenseman hadn't scored since April 11, but he's added six helpers through 10 playoff contests. Ekholm continues to provide a steadying defensive presence on the Oilers' second pairing. He's added 14 shots on net, 25 hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in the postseason.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Leon Draisaitl - Deals helper in win Draisaitl posted an assist and four hits in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact Draisaitl set up a Mattias Ekholm tally in the first period. Near the end of the game, Draisaitl was on the receiving end of a vicious slash by Alex Pietrangelo, which appeared to hit the Oilers superstar around his hand or wrist. It may be something to monitor with Draisaitl, especially if he misses a practice ahead of Friday's Game 5. The 27-year-old has racked up 13 goals, five assists, 38 shots on net, 22 hits and a plus-4 rating through 10 playoff contests, and he's only been held off the scoresheet once.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Klim Kostin - Sets up opening tally Kostin notched an assist and two hits in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact Kostin picked up his first point of the second round when he set up Nick Bjugstad's wraparound goal in the first period. While far from consistent, Kostin's been a surprising source of depth offense with three goals and two assists through 10 playoff outings. He's added 34 hits, nine shots on net, nine PIM and a plus-3 rating as a physical presence in the Oilers' bottom six.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Darnell Nurse - Frustration boils over late Nurse logged an assist, four hits, two blocked shots and 17 PIM in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact Nurse snapped a four-game point drought with a helper on a Ryan Nugent-Hopkins tally in the second period. In the third, Nurse earned an instigator penalty, a fighting major and a 10-minute misconduct in a fight with Nicolas Hague. An instigator in the final five minutes of a game results in an automatic suspension, though it can be reviewed and rescinded, so there's still a chance Nurse will be available for Game 5 on Friday. He has four assists, 35 hits, 27 blocked shots and 21 PIM through 10 playoff contests.
MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kailer Yamamoto - Adds assist in win Yamamoto notched an assist, two hits and 10 PIM in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Impact Yamamoto has gotten on the scoresheet in the Oilers' last three wins, racking up a goal and three assists over five games in that span. That accounts for all of the winger's offense through 10 playoff contests, and he's added 19 hits, 11 shots on net, 14 PIM and a minus-3 rating. The 24-year-old will likely continue to be a middle-six option for the Oilers, especially if they opt for 12-forward lineups as they did Wednesday.
