Janmark has not played since suffering a shoulder injury on October 26th and has been placed on the long-term injured reserve. Janmark was averaging 13:05 time-on-ice in the seven games leading up to his injury, scoring zero points and a -2 plus/minus rating. The Oilers have recalled Raphael Lavoie and Adam Erne.
Lavoie has been recalled from the Bakersfield Condors of the AHL with news of the Oilers placing Mattias Janmark and Dylan Holloway on the injured reserve. Lavoie has been held pointless in five games with the Oilers but has seven points (4G / 3A) in five games with the Condors.
Lavoie has yet to pick up a point through five games with Edmonton but had three SOG and a -1 plus/minus and has been loaned to Springfield (AHL) on Tuesday. The 23-year-old winger returns to Springfield, where he was on a heater prior to his promotion with four goals, three assists, 17 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus.
Emberson has played seven games this season but has been out of the lineup since November 7th. He has one point (0G / 1A), nine blocks, and nine hits while averaging 15:57 time-on-ice. He is expected to replace Kyle Burroughs, who will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday.
The Oilers will turn to Skinner again after he helped them snap a four-game losing streak on Saturday, saving 17 of 18 shots in a 4-1 win over the Seattle Kraken. Monday night's contest against the New York Islanders will mark the Oilers' first game with new head coach Kris Knoblauch after Jay Woodcroft was fired on Sunday. The pressure of a new coach and the Islanders' general inability to score (2.46 GF / GP) attribute to the Oilers being listed as -171 home favourites.

With the surprise waiving of Jack Campbell earlier this week Stuart Skinner is now the Oilers' starter and will take the crease Thursday vs. San Jose. The 25-year-old was an All-Star last season but has been horrendous so far in 2023-24, with his 1-4-1 record, .856 SV% and 3.99 GAA. He takes on the historically struggling San Jose Sharks, who snapped an 11-game losing streak with a victory last game over PHI and are last in the NHL in both shots per game (24.8) and goals per game (1.17).
Savoie is one of the Sabres' most intriguing prospects after being draft as a first-round pick of the 2022 NHL Draft (9th overall) and is set to make his debut Friday vs. Minnesota. The 19-year-old centre appeared for five games for Rochester (AHL) earlier this season and had two goals, three assists, and six PIMs in six games played.
Brown has missed the Oilers' last two games due to a soft-tissue injury and is still considered day-to-day even though he skated Thursday. The 29-year-old signed a one-year, $4 million contract in the offseason but has been a massive disappointment as he is yet to collect a point through nine games but has 13 SOG, and a -5 plus/minus.

Jack Campbell cleared waivers earlier on Wednesday, allowing the Oilers to recall Pickard from the Bakersfield Condors of the AHL. Pickard has not played at the NHL level since a three-game stint with the Detroit Red Wings in the 2021-22 season. The 31-year-old journeyman goaltender has been lights out with the Condors this season, posting a 2.03 GAA and .939 SV% in four games (2-2-0). Stuart Skinner is expected to take priority in the starters crease for the Oilers but after a dreadful 2-8-1 start to the season, the slightest misstep could potentially give Pickard a route to seeing game action.
Skinner will draw his third start in four games Monday after taking a breather for Saturday's loss vs. Nashville. The 25-year-old was an All-Star in 2022-23 but has been horrendous this season, with his 1-3-1 record, .861 SV% and 3.62 GAA. He takes on the red-hot Vancouver Canucks on the road Monday, who have won three straight games and lead the NHL in goals per game (4.36).
Hamblin was recalled from Bakersfield (AHL) Sunday where he had three goals, two assists, six PIMs and a +4 plus/minus in six games and will make his season debut Monday for the Oilers vs. Vancouver. The 24-year-old appeared in 10 games as a rookie in 2022-23, but failed to pick up a point while getting 12 SOG, two PIMs and a -3 plus/minus.
