Connor McDavid - Earns 1,000th point McDavid scored a goal on eight shots, dished an assist and added three hits in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

Impact McDavid became the fourth-fastest player to 1,000 career points, scoring to reach the milestone in his 659th game. He didn't stay on the round number for long, as he set up Darnell Nurse in overtime for point No. 1,001. McDavid is all the way back after a rough October -- he has nine points over his last three contests and is up to six tallies, 19 points, 52 shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-6 rating through 14 outings this season.

Darnell Nurse - Three points in overtime win Nurse scored two goals, dished an assist, added four hits and went plus-3 in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

Impact Nurse had his best game of the season by far, which included him scoring the game-winning goal at 2:33 of the extra session. The defenseman has earned seven points over his last eight contests. He's up to two goals, nine points, 43 shots on net, 33 hits, 31 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 17 appearances. Nurse is a reliable fantasy defender most of the time, but an uptick in offense makes him a must-have in formats that count lots of categories.

Calvin Pickard - Grabs overtime win Pickard turned aside 21 of 23 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

Impact Pickard stepped in for a spot start and performed well, though the Predators' fourth line was able to generate both goals. The 32-year-old netminder has won four of his last five outings while offering stability in the backup role behind Stuart Skinner. Pickard is 4-2-0 with a 2.49 GAA and an .890 save percentage over seven appearances this season. It'll likely be Skinner between the pipes in Toronto on Saturday, but Pickard should start either Monday in Montreal or Tuesday in Ottawa.

Viktor Arvidsson - Ruled out against Preds Arvidsson (undisclosed) will miss out versus Nashville on Thursday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

Impact While Arvidsson won't be an option for Thursday's tilt, he could still be ready to face the Maple Leafs on Saturday. In the meantime, rather than call up an additional forward, the Oilers are going to roll with seven defensemen, which means Travis Dermott will rejoin the lineup after being a healthy scratch for the last four contests.

Viktor Arvidsson - Questionable for Thursday Arvidsson (undisclosed) is questionable for Thursday's game after missing Wednesday's practice, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

Impact Arvidsson has two goals and five points in 16 outings with the Oilers in 2024-25. Edmonton might dress seven blueliners and 11 forwards if Arvidsson ends up not being available Thursday. His absence might also result in Jeff Skinner, who has been skating on the fourth line, moving up to the second unit.

NOVEMBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Calvin Pickard - Set to start Thursday Pickard will start Thursday's home matchup against the Predators, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

Impact Pickard worked in the starter's net during Wednesday's practice session, and he'll officially draw his first start in over a week. Although he's had limited opportunities this season behind Stuart Skinner, Pickard has been effective in recent outings, posting a 3-1-0 record, 2.02 GAA and .917 save percentage over his last four starts.
