Oshie, who has been out since October 27th, was on the ice for Friday's practice and head coach Peter Laviolette said he is a "possibility" after being a full-go in the session. Oshie was back on the top power-play unit, which is a good sign that he'll be back in the lineup in San Jose.





Koekkoek will be out until the middle of November with a lower-body injury that he suffered on Thursday. Kris Russell will likely replace him on the Oilers' third pairing on Saturday.

Nurse will be out until at least early November with a broken finger, which means that Philip Broberg should get an extended look with the Oilers. Evan Bouchard should take on more power-play usage as well.


Stenlund has been a healthy scratch for the last two games and with Max Domi back healthy, Stenlund returns to Cleveland. The 25-year-old has one goal and two assists in seven AHL games this season.

Groulx has been a healthy scratch for the last three games, so he'll go to San Diego to get playing time. The 21-year-old centre had 10 goals and 19 assists (29 points) in 42 games last year.

Strand did not get into a game during his call-up. He returns to Ontario where he has one goal and one assist (two points) in four games.

Durzi has had a terrific start to the season in Ontario, scoring five goals with eight assists (13 points) in 12 games. Durzi replaces Austin Strand, who was with the Kings but not in the lineup. It remains to be seen if Durzi will make his NHL debut over the weekend.



Barre-Boulet has been a healthy scratch most of the time since returning from Seattle (via waivers), so he'll go to the AHL to get some playing time.

Allen will likely miss his fourth straight game on Saturday, meaning Samuel Montembeault will likely start vs. the Predators. Keeping him out on Saturday gives Allen an extra three days rest ahead of next Wednesday's game in Washington.
