Pinizzotto was recalled from AHL Oklahoma City on Wednesday by the Oilers. The 30-year-old winger spent the majority of last season in the AHL but he did play six games with Edmonton accumulating just two assists and 15 penalty minutes. Pinizzotto is likely to fill a left-wing slot while Jordan Eberle is out of action but since the injury to Eberle is not long term, Pinizzotto will likely return to the AHL soon.
