The Oilers activated Mike Smith (thumb) from IR.

Smith (undisclosed) will return to the Oilers' crease on Wednesday.
Smith is day-to-day with an undisclosed injury.
Smith recently returned to the crease but appeared to suffer a lower-body injury in the latter part of Friday's game. Iyla Konovalov has been called up to serve as Mikko Koskinen's backup on Saturday.

Goalie Start
Smith will return to the Oilers crease on Wednesday.
The Oilers have placed Mike Smith (leg) on LTIR.
Smith has been out since October 19th, so moving him to LTIR gives the Oilers enough cap-space to call up Philip Broberg and William Lagesson to replace Darnell Nurse and Slater Koekkoek, who went on IR. Smith is eligible to be activated whenever he is healthy.
Smith (lower-body) had a setback and has returned to Edmonton.
Smith appeared close to returning to the Oilers' crease but a setback will keep him sidelined for the foreseeable future. With Smith out, Mikko Koskinen will connote to be used as the No.1 netminder with Stuart Skinner as his backup.
Smith (leg) will not be available for Wednesday's game vs. Nashville.
Head coach Dave Tippett said that Smith is "skating right now, he won't play tonight but he's real close. We're hoping he'll be an option for Friday." With Smith out for a sixth straight game, look for Mikko Koskinen to start.
The Oilers have placed Mike Smith (lower-body) on IR.
Smith was removed from Tuesday's game after he "tweaked" something in his lower body. With Smith going on IR, Stuart Skinner was recalled from the AHL to serve as Mikko Koskinen's backup moving forward. The movement to IR means he'll miss at least two games.
Smith left Tuesday's game with a lower-body injury and will be re-evaluated on Wednesday.
Head coach Dave Tippett called Smith "day-to-day" in his post-game media availability but added that he'll be re-evaluated on Wednesday morning. The Oilers have a back-to-back in Arizona and Vegas on Thursday and Friday, so there's a chance Stuart Skinner is called up and plays one of those two games.

Goalie Start
Smith will start the Oilers season opener.
Smith separated himself from Mikko Koskinen last season and ended up starting 54 percent of the Oilers games, going 21-6-2 with a 2.31 GAA and .923 SV%. It was a resurgent year for the veteran netminder, who struggled mightily in his debut season with the Oilers. If all goes well in 2022, he should start the lion’s share of the Oilers games and their high-powered offence could make him a valuable fantasy option.
The Oilers have signed Mike Smith to a two-year contract extension.
Smith struggled in 2020 but the Oilers brought him back for 2021 and he flourished. At age-38, Smith went 21-6-2 with a 2.31 GAA and .923 SV% in 32 games and will head into 2021-22 as the Oilers' No.1 starting goalie with a more certain future after signing a two-year contract.
