Olivier (undisclosed) was placed on the injured reserve Thursday, Adam Vingan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear what Olivier is dealing with or when he was injured but he'll now be out for at least a week. The 24-year-old winger has two points in 10 games this season but averaged just 8:17 of ice time in his last two appearances.

Olivier was promoted from the taxi squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Olivier has consistently shuffled up and down from the active roster this season. He's played eight total games, posting two points and dishing out 19 hits. If the 23-year-old plays in Monday's game against the Lightning, he'll likely stick to a bottom-six role.

EDGE Analysis
Olivier often gets sent to the taxi squad, but he's played in eight of the last 10 games, recording two points and 19 hits. The 23-year-old's next chance to play is Monday against the Lightning. He's slated to play on the fourth line if he, indeed, suits up.

Olivier was activated from the taxi squad Saturday.

Olivier was dropped to the taxi squad Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Olivier's demotion is almost certainly a paper transaction considering he has appeared in five of the team's seven games this season. In those contests, the 23-year-old winger has tallied one assist, three shots and 13 hits while averaging 10:15 of ice time. If Olivier isn't brought back prior to Saturday's matchup with Tampa Bay, it could open up a spot in the lineup for Eeli Tolvanen or Rocco Grimaldi.
