\t\t\t\t\tZach Hyman<\/a> missed the Stanley Cup Finals due to injury, and now he’s revealed he may not be ready for the Oilers 2025\/26 regular season opener.Over the past few seasons, there have been few wingers in the NHL who have been more consistent than Zach Hyman, who has dominated alongside Connor McDavid<\/a>, tallying 117 goals in his three seasons with the Edmonton Oilers to date.Unfortunately, the team would lose him in the Stanley Cup Playoffs due to a wrist injury in a Mason Marchment<\/a> collision, as he was made to watch the team fall in the Stanley Cup Finals from the sidelines.<\/p>\n Hyman’s Wrist Injury Still Clouding Oilers’ Early-Season Plans<\/p>\n In a recent interview, Hyman gave an update on his wrist injury<\/a>, and while things are progressing well, he noted that he may not be healthy and available for the season opener against the rival Calgary Flames.<\/p>\n “Will I be ready for the start of the season? I don’t know. But I’m on the right track, which is good. The fact that I don’t know is a good thing because it could be, ‘No I’m not.’ I have one more meeting with the surgeon to wrap it up, which is great.”<\/p>\n Why Edmonton Can’t Afford to Start 2025 Without Their Grittiest Forward<\/p>\n If Hyman were to start the season on the sidelines, it would be a major blow for Edmonton, who parted ways with Corey Perry<\/a> and Evander Kane<\/a> this off-season, meaning they need the grit and netfront presence that Hyman brings to the team.<\/p>\n Ultimately, if he does miss some time, it’s expected that he’ll be back fairly early in the season, and if he can get back to 100% to give this top-six the boost they need, this will be a genuine Stanley Cup contender once more.<\/p>\n Previously on HouseOfHockey<\/p>\n POLL<\/p>\n 10 HOURS AGO\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0|\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0259 ANSWERS<\/p>\n Zach Hyman’s Injury Update Puts Oilers’ Season Opener in Doubt<\/p>\n Will Hyman score 40 or more goals in 2025\/26?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\tHOUSEOFHOCKEY.NET
