Stillman was a healthy scratch vs. the Ducks on Tuesday but he will replace Caleb Jones on the blueline on Thursday. Stillman has scored one goal with nine assists (10 points) in 31 games this season.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Stillman missed 14 games with a shoulder injury but is set to play Thursday vs. the Blues. Stillman, who picked up 10 points (1G / 9A) in 28 games before getting hurt, will replace Erik Gustafsson on the Blackhawks' third pair.
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.
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.
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 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.
Nugent-Hopkins suffered a shoulder injury on Saturday and will not play this week and could be out longer. The Oilers could not provide an exact timeline, so expect them to re-evaluate him and provide more details at a later date.
