Nurse missed Wednesday's game in St. Louis while in COVID-19 protocol but is expected to be back in the lineup in New Jersey. The Oilers are also expected to get Jesse Puljujarvi and William Lagesson back.
The Oilers have already been shut down through the Christmas break, so we'll see when they resume play next week. Nurse will likely be out until at least next Thursday.
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.
As previously reported, Nurse is expected to miss at least a couple of weeks with an undisclosed injury. Nurse and Slater Koekkoek are going on IR together, opening up roster spots for Philip Broberg and William Lagessson to be called up from the AHL.
Nurse was hurt in Thursday's win over the Jets and is expected to miss at least the Oilers last four games of November. Philip Broberg will be promoted from the AHL to help replace him.
The new deal will keep Nurse in Edmonton through the 2022 season. Nurse has scored four goals with 20 assists (24 points) in 55 games this season.
Nurse has been sidelined by an ankle injury since December 1st, but is on the Oilers’ current road-trip, but will miss both games of their back-to-back in Florida on Tuesday and Wednesday. Monitor his status later in the week.
Nurse was having a strong season until he tore ligaments in his ankle in early-December. He will miss up to three months, which means he is sidelined until mid-March, so his 2016-17 regular season shouldn’t be done.
Nurse is expected to be out long-term with a lower-body injury. This is a big blow to the Oilers’ blueline and thrusts Matt Benning into bigger role. With Nurse out, the Oilers have recalled Dillon Simpson from Bakersfield (AHL).
Nurse was suspended for three games for fighting an unwilling Roman Polak. With his suspension up, Nurse is expected to return tonight vs. St. Louis. The young blueliner has just eight points (2G / 6A) in 59 games this season.
Nurse was suspended for three games for instigating a fight with Roman Polak and absolutely pummelling Polak, who appeared unwilling to fight. Polak suffered a broken nose during the tilt, which likely didn’t help Nurse’s case.
Nurse has registered one assist in six games with Bakersfield this season and has been recalled after the Oilers placed Griffin Reinhart (undisclosed) on IR. Nurse could make his season debut on Tuesday vs. the Wild.
Nurse, 20, had a nice preseason and some thought that he would at least get another preseason game, but he has been sent to the minors where he will wait for his next shot. The AHL has developed Anton Lander and Oscar Klefbom into great players, so the Oilers appear to be content to be patient with the former seventh overall pick. There’s a very strong chance Nurse gets recalled at some point during the season.
Nurse had no points with a minus-2 rating and two shots in his first two NHL games. The 19-year-old will get one more year of junior and have a chance to stick with the Oilers full-time next season. He had 13 goals with 37 assists (50 points) in 64 games with Sault Ste. Marie (OHL) last season.
