Pouliot sniped a pair of goals in Monday's 4-1 win over the visiting Maple Leafs. Pouliot's quest for hockey's "Cy Young" award continues, as he's now up to 16 goals and just eight assists in 46 games this year. The 16 tallies actually tie his career high from 2011-12 with Boston, but the lack of helpers limits his value, even in deeper leagues. It is interesting, however, that he's managed to skate to a minus-1 (tied for the Oilers' lead) on one of the league's worst teams, especially since seven of his fellow forwards are a minus-11 or worse.

Pouliot (illness) will play Monday against the Red Wings, Derek Van Diest of the Edmonton Sun reports. Pouliot was dealing with an illness, but after going through warmups he was given the green light to play, though news didn't surface until right around game-time. Pouliot has 20 points (13 goals) and a minus-1 rating in 42 games this season.

Pouliot (illness) is a game-time decision for Monday's tilt with the Red Wings. Pouliot's illness appears to have subsided a bit, but not enough to guarantee that he will take part in Monday's game. The decision on his status should come at some point before the opening face-off, but could come as late as pregame warmups.
