Amid a less chaotic trade deadline day than many hoped for, there were a few news items around the Edmonton Oilers that slipped under the radar.
News of the Oilers’ newest acquisitions, Jason Dickinson, Connor Murphy and Colton Dach suiting up when the puck drops against the Carolina Hurricanes, however, wasn’t one of them.
Janmark out for the season
Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch said Friday that forward Mattias Janmark would miss the remainder of the regular season and playoffs after undergoing shoulder surgery.
It’s believed to be on a nagging shoulder injury, and while earlier reports indicated he would be out for just the regular season, Knoblauch confirmed it will be longer than that. Janmark is expected to return for training camp ahead of the 2026-27 season.
