The Oilers have loaned Jesse Joensuu to Bern of the Swiss League.
Injury
Joensuu is out at least four weeks with a high-ankle sprain.
Joensuu will miss his second straight game tonight and will likely miss the remainder of the season after suffering a high-ankle sprain on Friday vs. the Red Wings. He has only five points with a minus-16 rating and 16 penalty minutes in 42 games this season, so he was not fantasy relevant anyways.
Line Change
Joensuu will be a healthy scratch tonight.
Luke Gazdic will enter the lineup for Joensuu who is a "banged up" according to head coach Dallas Eakins.
Injury
Joensuu is questionable for 1 p.m matchup with the Flyers.
Joensuu has missed 10 games in a row with a back injury. He initially tried to come back from the injury early and ended up out of the lineup again. It has been frustrating for the Finnish winger.
