Brown (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision on Thursday.
Brown will be a game-time decision for the second straight game. He's battling an undisclosed ailment but was able to play through it in St. Louis on Tuesday. If he can't go on Thursday, Tyler Ennis will draw into the lineup.
Bouchard (illness) is on the ice for warmups and expected to play Tuesday.
Arvidsson is week-to-week with a lower-body injury.

Line Change
Regula was recalled from the AHL and will play on Tuesday.
Regula has spent most of the season in the AHL, tallying 17 points (2G / 15A) in 28 games with Rockford. He will replace Riley Stillman on the Blackhawks blueline on Tuesday but has failed to record a point in his first seven career NHL games.
Brown (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.
Brown was not on the ice for the Senators' morning skate and will be a game-time decision in St. Louis. Head coach DJ Smith said that Brown has been banged up for a while, so sounds like he's nursing some bumps and bruises rather than something that will keep him out for an extended period of time.
Bouchard (illness) is not on the ice for warmups.
Bouchard was a game-time decision on Monday due to an illness he's been battling since Saturday. With Bouchard out, the Oilers will go with the standard 12 forwards, six defenseman formation--a rarity under new head coach Jay Woodcroft.
Arvidsson was officially ruled out for Monday's game in Boston.
Bouchard (illness) will be a game-time decision on Monday.
Bouchard left Saturday's game vs. the Canadiens due to an illness and he hasn't fully recovered. Bouchard will be a game-time decision and the Oilers will go to 12 forwards/six defensemen if Bouchard can't go--Kyle Turris will likely be the No.12 forward in that case.
The Oilers recalled Stuart Skinner from Bakersfield (AHL).
With Mike Smith dealing with an illness, Skinner will serve as Mikko Koskinen's backup in Calgary. Skinner has gone 11-2-4 with a 2.24 GAA and .919 SV% in 18 games with Bakersfield this season.
Smith (illness) is not expected to be available for Monday's game in Calgary.
The Oilers recalled Stuart Skinner on Sunday and he is expected to meet the team in Calgary to serve as Mikko Koskinen's backup on Monday. Smith is day-to-day and could be ready for Wednesday's game vs. the Capitals.
Arvidsson is day-to-day with a lower-body injury.
Arvidsson played just 11:51 TOI before leaving Sunday's game in Buffalo with a lower-body injury. It's unclear whether or not Arvidsson will be available for Monday's game in Boston. This would be a huge blow to the Kings' top-6 in a difficult game--Arvidsson, Phillip Danault and Trevor Moore have formed one of the best second lines in the NHL this season.
Goalie Start
Smith will start Saturday vs. the Canadiens.
The Oilers have signed Seth Griffith to a two-year, two-way contract extension.
Brown (lower-body) will be a game-time decision on Thursday.
Brown is dealing with a lower-body issue and will be a game-time decision in Florida. If Brown is unable to play, Dillon Heatherington will play on the third pairing next to Victor Mete.
The Oilers have signed James Hamblin to a two-year, entry-level contract.
Hamblin was an undrafted free-agent out of the WHL, who is in his second season with the Oilers' AHL team in Bakersfield. The 22-year-old centre has scored 14 goals with eight assists (22 points) in 40 AHL games.
Henrique (illness) is on the ice for warmups and is expected to play Tuesday.
Nugent-Hopkins is week-to-week with an upper-body injury.
Nugent-Hopkins has returned to Edmonton to be re-evaluated but it sounds like he's going to miss approximately 2-to-3 weeks with an upper-body injury he suffered over the weekend. Brad Malone was called up from the AHL and will serve as a bottom-6 centre on Tuesday with Nugent-Hopkins unavailable.
Janmark (upper-body) will not play on Tuesday and is "not close to returning."
Janmark will miss his second straight game on Tuesday but it sounds like he could miss even more time. Head coach Pete DeBoer said that Janmark "is not close to returning," which suggests he could miss the rest of the week at the very least.
