Perry hasn't played a game since his contract was terminated by the Chicago Blackhawks in late November. Before having his contract terminated, Perry was amid a somewhat resurgent start to the season, scoring nine points (4G / 5A) in 16 games. It is unlikely that Perry will continue his 0.56 point-per-game pace with the Oilers, as he is expected to skate on the third line with Dylan Holloway and Ryan McLeod.
Pickard has been limited to only one game in the last nine for the Oilers but will return to the crease on Thursday against the Chicago Blackhawks. The lack of play hasn't been an indictment on Pickard's play but rather a testament to Stuart Skinner's, as Pickard has been stellar when called upon, allowing three or fewer goals in his last three games (3-0-0), posting a serviceable .904 SV%. The Oilers, winners of 14 straight, are gargantuan -601 home favourites against a Blackhawks club defeated 6-2 by the Seattle Kraken last night.

Skinner has not played since January 9th, missing the last five games, but will likely to the lineup on Tuesday against the Anaheim Ducks.

Skinner will start for the fifth straight game as the red-hot Oilers host the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday. The Oilers are riding a franchise-best 13-game winning streak and are sizeable -349 home favourites against a Blue Jackets squad that has lost four of their last five (1-3-1). The entire Oilers' roster has worked in tandem during their unprecedented winning streak, but Skinner has been the team's backbone, allowing two or fewer goals in nine of his last 10 outings (10-0-0), posting a remarkable .947 SV%.
Kemp made his NHL debut 10 days ago when he appeared vs. Montreal and has been a healthy scratch since resulting in the defensemen being loaned back to Bakersfield (AHL) Tuesday. The 24-year-old played a minuscule three shifts and 2:03 TOI in his debut but heads back to Bakersfield where he had five assists, 13 PIMs and a +5 plus/minus in 26 games prior to his call up.
