EDGE Analysis

Bouchard left Thursday's 7-1 win over Minnesota late in the third period, but it seems that will be the extent of the action he'll miss due to the injury.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard exited Thursday's 7-1 win over Minnesota late in the third period. He has six goals and 22 points across 29 appearances in 2024-25. If he can't play Saturday, then Alec Regula, who was claimed off waivers from Boston on Wednesday, will presumably make his Oilers debut.

Bouchard (lower body) limped off the ice late in the third period of Thursday's game versus the Wild, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear if he was seriously hurt or just shaken up on the play. Bouchard had two assists in the 7-1 win, putting him at 22 points through 29 appearances this season. The Oilers' next game is Saturday against the Golden Knights, so there should be an update on his status prior to that contest's 4:00 p.m. Eastern puck drop.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old blueliner is at 20 points, 68 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 26 contests this season, though he has just five power-play points so far, compared to earning 35 of his 82 points with the man advantage during the 2023-24 regular season.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard didn't earn a multi-point effort, but he has collected two goals and six helpers over his last five outings. The 25-year-old defenseman helped out on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' empty-netter Saturday. Bouchard is up to 18 points, 63 shots on net, 43 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 24 appearances. He's got some work to do to get back on a point-per-game pace as he had last year, but he should still be among the most highest-scoring blueliners for fantasy purposes.

Bouchard notched two power-play assists, two shots on goal and a minus-3 rating in Friday's 4-3 overtime win over Utah.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard has multiple points in three of his last four games, racking up two goals and five helpers in that span. This was the first game in which the Oilers scored multiple power-play goals this season, and if they can build off that, it bodes well for Bouchard.

EDGE Analysis

Bouchard was questionable to play Saturday, but he suited up for 18:19 of ice time. That's a season-low mark, but it's likely because the Oilers dominated the game, allowing them to take it easy on Bouchard as he manages any potential issues. This was his third multi-point effort over his last seven outings, but he's gone scoreless in the other four games in that span. Overall, the 25-year-old blueliner has six goals, nine assists, 59 shots on net, 41 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 22 appearances.

EDGE Analysis
