Hyman scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Kraken.

Hyman always seems to elevate his game versus Seattle -- he has 11 goals and 21 points over 16 career appearances against the Kraken, including goals in each of his last three contests in this matchup. He's starting to get a rhythm back with three points over his last three outings while playing on the top line and first power-play unit. The winger is at five points 21 shots on net, 26 hits and a minus-3 rating through nine outings this season.

Savoie scored two goals, one on the power play and the other shorthanded, in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Kraken.

Savoie's shortie was in the second period, giving the Oilers a 4-2 lead. He added a power-play tally in the third as the Oilers looked for chances to give their top players rest in the blowout win. Savoie is seeing top-six minutes while Jack Roslovic (undisclosed) is out for the next few weeks. On the year, Savoie has five goals, nine points (three on the power play), 39 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 28 appearances. Given his current role, he may be worth a short-term look in fantasy until the Oilers' forward group is healthier.

Teravainen (face) is expected to be fine after getting bloodied by a slap shot in the third period of Thursday's game versus the Kings, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.

Teravainen was on the ice to help protect a lead late in the third period, and he caught an Adrian Kempe shot to the face. Head coach Jeff Blashill relayed that the winger was in a lot of pain, but it appears he's avoided a more significant injury at this time. Fantasy managers will want to double-check on his status prior to Saturday's rematch with the Kings.

Draisaitl scored a goal on three shots and added three assists in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Kraken.

Draisaitl's power-play goal put the Oilers ahead 3-0 in the first period. He also earned two of his three helpers with the man advantage. The 30-year-old saw an eight-game point streak snapped Tuesday against the Wild, and he responded with his best game of the year. Overall, Draisaitl has 16 goals, 19 assists, 16 power-play points, 70 shots on net, 16 hits and a plus-5 rating over 28 appearances.

McDavid scored three goals on seven shots and added an assist in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Kraken.

Two of his goals as well as his lone assist came on the power play. McDavid had produced just a trio of three-point efforts prior to Thursday, but this outing might be the spark the Oilers' offense as a whole needed to get back on track. McDavid has still been pretty good with 14 goals, 40 points (17 on the power play), 82 shots on net and a minus-6 rating over 28 appearances, but he has the potential to make the remarkable look routine in any given game.

Trenin scored a goal on two shots and added five hits in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Flames.

Trenin tied the game late in the second period, but the Flames scored three unanswered goalies in the third. With two goals and two assists over his last nine outings, Trenin is mixing in a little offense to go with his usual physical play. The 28-year-old is at two goals, seven points, 33 shots on net, 131 hits, 19 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 28 appearances this season.

Malkin scored two goals, including the game-winner late in the third period, and had an assist in a 4-3 victory over the Lightning on Thursday.

Malkin broke the 3-3 tie late in the third with a one-timer from the low slot off a feed from Thomas Novak. It was his seventh career go-ahead goal in the final five minutes of regulation, tying Mario Lemieux and Sidney Crosby for the most in franchise history. Malkin also tied Bryan Trottier for the 10th-most assists with a single franchise (853).

Zary scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Zary provided some insurance in the third period with his goal. The 24-year-old has had a poor season so far, but he's showing a little life with three points over his last six games. He's up to a total of three goals, five points, 37 shots on net, 20 hits and a minus-4 rating over 27 appearances.

Jarvis scored a goal Thursday in a 5-1 loss to Toronto.

It was a gimme -- Shayne Gostisbehere took a pass in the slot before wrapping around Leafs' defender Morgan Rielly right to Jarvis, who had an easy backdoor tap-in. He has five goals in his last games and 16 (23 points) in 26 games this season. Jarvis is in a four-way tie with Leon Draisaitl, Wyatt Johnston and Tom Wilson for ninth in goal scoring across the NHL.

Huberdeau scored a goal on three shots, added two hits, blocked two shots and went plus-3 in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Huberdeau ended a month-long goal drought with his tally at 4:21 of the second period. During that stretch, he was limited to six assists and 22 shots on net over 14 outings. The 32-year-old winger has remained in a top-six role despite the slump, as the Flames haven't seen anyone else step up to challenge him. Huberdeau is at five goals, 14 points, 40 shots on net, 15 blocked shots, 13 hits, 25 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 24 appearances.
