Stuart Skinner - Guarding cage versus Kings Skinner will be in goal against Los Angeles in Wednesday's Game 2 matchup at home, Oilers play-by-by announcer Jack Michaels reports.
Impact Skinner will be looking to bounce back from his Game 1 performance in which he allowed four goals on 35 shots (.886 save percentage) in a losing effort versus the Kings. Considering Skinner has played in 21 of the club's last 26 contests, he will likely be given some time to get back on track before the team would look to Jack Campbell to step in as his replacement.

Mattias Janmark - Questionable for Game 2 Janmark (undisclosed) missed morning skate for "maintenance reasons" and is considered questionable for Wednesday's Game 2 against LA, Oilers play-by-by announcer Jack Michaels rep...
Impact Janmark's status for Wednesday's contest may not be confirmed until the Oilers take the ice for pregame warmups. If Janmark's unable to go, look for Devin Shore to take his place in the lineup.

Mattias Janmark - Unavailable for Game 2 Janmark won't play in Wednesday's Game 2 versus the Kings after blocking a shot with his foot in the series opener, Derek Van Diest of NHL.com reports.
Impact Janmark had an assist in 14:52 of ice time during Game 1, but it appears the injury popped up following that contest. The 30-year-old can be considered day-to-day for now. It's unclear if the Oilers will opt for a traditional lineup or a seven-defensemen arrangement -- forward Devin Shore or defenseman Philip Broberg are the options to take Janmark's place in the lineup.

Leon Draisaitl - Three-point effort in win Draisaitl scored a power-play goal on three shots, added two assists, logged four PIM and doled out five hits in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Kings in Game 2.
Impact Draisaitl is already in peak form this postseason, notching three goals and two assists over two contests. The Kings have mostly kept Connor McDavid (one assist) quiet, but Draisaitl's been harder to contain. The 27-year-old could continue to be the focal point of the Oilers' offense as the series shifts to Los Angeles for the next two games.

Stuart Skinner - Makes 22 saves in win Skinner stopped 22 of 24 shots in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Kings in Game 2.
Impact The Oilers again blew a lead in this contest, giving up two goals in the second period. They bounced back in the third, and Skinner held his ground to even the series at 1-1. The 24-year-old netminder appears to have the reins as the Oilers' starting goalie. He'll look to turn in a similar effort in Friday's Game 3 in Los Angeles.
APRIL 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Derek Ryan - Scores on rebound Ryan scored a goal, added three hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Kings in Game 2.
Impact Ryan has been steady lately with two goals and two assists over his last five games. He deposited a rebound after a Leon Draisaitl shot caromed off the end boards early in the first period. Ryan is still in a bottom-six role, so his chances to contribute offense in the playoffs are likely to be limited.

Evander Kane - Fills empty cage Kane scored an empty-net goal on three shots, dished three hits, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Kings in Game 2.
Impact Kane has a goal, an assist, five shots, nine hits and six PIM through two playoff contests. The 31-year-old winger will continue to see top-six minutes for the Oilers, and his ability to chip in over most fantasy-relevant categories could make him a solid option for postseason pools. He had 28 points, 124 hits and 146 shots on net in 41 regular-season contests.
APRIL 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Klim Kostin - Nets game-winning goal Kostin scored a goal on two shots, added five hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Kings in Game 2.
Impact Kostin snapped his four-game point drought with his tally early in the third period, which stood as the game-winner. The 23-year-old established himself with 21 points, 157 hits, 66 PIM and 56 shots on net in 57 regular-season games, primarily in a bottom-six role. He'll see similar usage in the postseason, though his physical play could give him some interest in fantasy, especially if the Oilers make a deep playoff run.
APRIL 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Darnell Nurse - Posts helper Nurse logged an assist, six blocked shots, three hits, two shots on goal and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Kings in Game 2.
Impact Nurse ended a five-game point drought with the secondary helper on Derek Ryan's first-period tally. The 28-year-old Nurse was a big contributor across categories in the regular season, recording 43 points, 203 shots on net, 164 blocked shots, 146 hits, 64 PIM and a plus-26 rating. He'll continue to see big minutes on the Oilers' top defensive pairing, a role that should allow him plenty of chances to generate offense.
