The Edmonton Oilers welcome the New York Rangers to Rogers Place for a Friday night matchup against the New York Rangers.

5 than the Rangers (3.79) is the Edmonton Oilers (3.93)... The streak is the Rangers longest vs. Connor McDavid will enter the game one-point shy of 100 on the season and four points away from 800 in his career... Since November's contest, the Rangers have gone 22-8-4 and added a bonafide sniper in Vladamir Tarasenko in a trade with the St. The 31-year-old has notched a goal and two assists in three games with New York since the deal. It was a result that stuck in the craw of Rangers Head Coach Gerard Gallant. Panarin is off to another great start in New York, the Korkino, Russia native leads the team with 18 goals and 44 assists in 54 games this season.

Oilers GM Ken Holland is clearly exhausting every strategy in his toolbox but is running out of time trying to avoid the most obvious roster move: putting ...

We are highly skeptical of that as the evidence is Puljujarvi actually has negative trade value: Holland would have to enhance any trade that sees a team taking on Puljujarvi’s $3 million cap hit. Unless a player making roughly $1.125 million or more is traded or placed on waivers and demoted, there will not be enough room to activate the two rookies. Word is out the Carolina Hurricanes would send Ondrej Kase to Edmonton — he’s been on LTIR all season with a concussion — in exchange for Puljujarvi, but only after he clears waivers. Neither player requires waivers and that will leave the Oilers with a cap-compliant, 19-man roster for the Rangers game, one that will include both Yamamoto and Puljujarvi. The expected move was to place Puljujarvi on waivers Thursday but that did not happen. In order to facilitate that, Edmonton will have to clear space to accommodate Yamamoto’s $3.1 million cap hit.

If defenceman Erik Karlsson is indeed on the Edmonton Oilers' most-wanted list, what does that mean and what would it cost? Ryan Dixon and Jason Bukala ...

Kane could play a wild-card role in the process of convincing Karlsson to waive his no-trade clause. Sure, Buffalo or Ottawa could afford to make a trade of this magnitude, but I don’t see the player waiving his no-trade to go to a rebuilding outfit. They know that if Karlsson came to Edmonton playing at his peak ability, the Oilers’ chances of another deep playoff run increase. He’s caught lightning in a bottle at the age 32. If his contract looked different (say he was expiring after this season), there would be a lineup around the block for his services. If you acquire him, he might not want to be moved again down the line and you will be inheriting the full four years left on his contract. I also would like to have a Ferrari in my garage, but I’m not willing to take out a second mortgage on my house to make the purchase! This is Year 5 for Karlsson in San Jose and his tenure there has been defined by extended injury-induced absences and the fact the club has basically been in steady decline with an aging roster full of bloated contracts. Even with all he’s done this season, the number we often hear first about in any conversation about Karlsson is his $11.5-million cap hit that’s on the books for four more seasons. It’s a monster number, especially for a guy who has not been the best health bet. But the fact it comes in his age-32 season on a rebuilding team when it felt like the ship had sailed on him being a game-changing player makes it all the more incredible. In fact, calling what Karlsson is doing this season a comeback is like saying Tom Brady played quarterback at a high level longer than you’d expect.

Mixed messages from Edmonton Oilers' camp on Thursday, although the first part of this one is plain enough:

However it is accomplished, Yamamoto’s return to action should be a welcome one. Which brings us to the third possibility, an external solution, most likely a trade. Kane has reportedly been dealing with “bumps and bruises”, but that’s not generally the precursor of a stint on LTIR, which minimum is the greater of 24 days and 10 games. A waiver at noon tomorrow would see such a player in limbo at game time, but technically still on the roster. That’s the maximum that can be buried in the AHL, and the exact amount the Oilers need to clear to activate Yamamoto with $0 of cap space left over. Article content

L'attaquant des Oilers d'Edmonton Kailer Yamamoto pourra effectuer un retour au jeu vendredi, face aux Rangers de New York, après un mois d'absence.

«Ken [Holland, le directeur général] a beaucoup de balles en l'air. Cela dure depuis un moment, donc je pense qu'il est temps de passer à autre chose et j’attends avec impatience le reste de la saison», a expliqué Yamamoto, selon le «Toronto Sun». [...] Je pense qu'il est définitivement temps de mettre ma blessure dans le rétroviseur.

Two of the hottest teams and hottest offenses in hockey match up Friday when the New York Rangers visit the Edmonton Oilers.

The Edmonton Oilers opted to not put any player on waivers when the cl...

Yamamoto is eligible to return to the lineup on Feb. Kailer Yamamoto is close to a return to the lineup and that could force a decision on Puljujarvi’s future in Edmonton. Another player who has dipped down a little bit in the list is Oilers forward Jesse Puljujarvi. We’ll likely see Dylan Holloway and Vincent Desharnais assigned to the Condors before tomorrow’s game. Will he bounce back? But that doesn’t mean things aren’t about to happen.
