Archibald had a shorthanded assist and a game-high eight hits in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald set up Riley Sheahan for the score in the final minute of the second period. The assist was Archibald's second point of the season, to go with 73 hits, 29 shots on goal and a minus-11 rating in 29 games.

Archibald has not recorded a point in seven games.

EDGE Analysis

The winger has amassed 14 hits, nine shots on goal and a minus-6 rating in that span. It's more of the same for Archibald, who has just a single goal and a minus-12 rating in 27 contests this year. It's all but certain he'll end up far short of the 22-point campaign he had in 2018-19 with the Coyotes.

Archibald scored a goal and added two hits in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald filled in on the first line in place of Zack Kassian (back) in Sunday's contest, and he responded to the promotion with his first point of the season. The 27-year-old winger has added 50 hits and 20 shots on goal in 20 contests. He'll have a temporary boost in value until Kassian returns to reclaim the right wing job alongside Connor McDavid.

Archibald (foot) will suit up versus New Jersey on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald missed the past six games while on injured reserve as a result of his foot problem. The winger has played in just eight games this year, in which he failed to record a point and has just eight shots and a minus-4 rating to show for it. Unless he can find a scoring touch, the 26-year-old will continue to provide low-end fantasy value.

Archibald (foot) is ready to play according to coach Dave Tippett, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald initially had a two-to-four week timeline when he was placed on injured reserve on Oct. 25. If he is able to return for Friday's game against the Devils, it would be two weeks on the dot. His return would likely bump Patrick Russell out of the lineup. Archibald will need to be activated from IR prior to playing.

Archibald will be sidelined 2-4 weeks with a fractured right foot, the club announced Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald's absence likely will go unnoticed by the bulk of fantasy owners, as he is averaging a mere 11:18 of ice time in eight games, in which ne recorded zero points, eight shots and 13 hits. With the winger on injured reserve, Tomas Jurco will slot into a fourth-line role and a player figures to be promoted from the minors. Top candidates for a call-up are likely Josh Currie or Kailer Yamamoto, both of whom have four goals and one assist in six games with the Condors.

The Oilers activated Archibald (illness) off injured reserve Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald missed Edmonton's last three games due to an illness, but he's evidently feeling better and will return to a bottom-six role against the Rangers on Saturday. The 27-year-old winger totaled 22 points in 68 games with the Coyotes last campaign.

The Oilers placed Archibald (illness) on injured reserve Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

This move is a bit of a head-scratcher, as Archibald was a full participant at Tuesday's morning skate and appeared to be a lock to play in the evening's matchup with the Islanders. Nonetheless, his move to IR was made retroactive to Oct. 3, so he'll be eligible to rejoin the lineup whenever he's deemed fit to play.

Archibald (illness) was back at practice Tuesday and should be in action versus the Islanders, Jack Michaels of the Oilers Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald missed the Oilers' matchup with Los Angeles on Saturday due to the flu, but was able to retake his spot in the lineup heading into Tuesday's tilt. The winger figures to fill a bottom-six role and shouldn't be expected to see power-play minutes, giving him low-end fantasy value at best.

Archibald (illness) is out for Saturday's game versus the Kings, Ryan Rishaug of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Archibald posted two hits and a shot on goal in Wednesday's season opener against the Canucks. The physical winger is one of two Oilers, along with Alex Chiasson, who will be out of Saturday's lineup with the flu.
