Gagner notched an assist in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner snapped a three-game drought when he set up Derek Ryan on the opening goal late in the first period. The 34-year-old Gagner has done fairly well while picking up bottom-six minutes in a part-time role for the Oilers this season. He has three goals, two assists, 29 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating through 13 appearances. Gagner's place in the lineup is likely safe until Dylan Holloway (lower body) returns, which is expected in roughly two weeks.

Gagner netted a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout win over the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner was scratched in the last four games, but he got back into the lineup with Zach Hyman (illness) out. The goal was Gagner's first point since Nov. 6. The 34-year-old forward has managed four points, 20 shots on net, eight hits, six blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over nine appearances, though he's unlikely to see much more than bottom-six usage when he plays.

Gagner notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner set up a Mattias Ekholm tally at 6:42 of the first period. With three points in as many games since signing to rejoin the Oilers at the start of November, Gagner has at least tried to help the team amid its early struggles. He's added eight shots on net, five hits and a plus-2 rating while seeing middle-six minutes and some power-play time. Gagner has some experience as a power-play specialist, but playing on the second unit in Edmonton is unlikely to provide much of a meaningful boost to his production.

Gagner scored two goals on five shots in the Oilers' 4-3 loss to the Stars on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Playing his first game in his third stint as an Oiler, Gagner made his presence known, scoring two goals in the third period to cut the Stars' lead to 4-3. Gagner would also pick up five shots and three minutes in 13:00 TOI. That would be the closest the Oilers would get as they were unable to beat Scott Wedgewood again to even the score at 4-4. With his strong performance Thursday, Gagner could start to see himself in the lineup more often than not as the Oilers look to dig themselves out of their early season struggles.

Gagner signed a one-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Tuesday, per PuckPedia.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner attended training camp with the Oilers on a professional tryout prior to joining AHL Bakersfield on a minor-league deal. The 34-year-old forward has one goal and four assists in three AHL outings this season. Gagner is projected to be in the lineup for Edmonton on Thursday against Dallas.

Gagner (hip) won't play in preseason games and will be evaluated in October, Jim Matheson of The Edmonton Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner is evidently still recovering from hip surgery he underwent in the offseason. He will practice with the Oilers, but it appears there's a good chance he'll play his first games of the season with AHL Bakersfield before being an option for the NHL club.

Gagner (hip) agreed to a professional tryout agreement with Edmonton on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner produced eight goals, 14 points and 78 shots on net in 48 appearances with Winnipeg during the 2022-23 campaign. Assuming he has recovered from the hip surgery that ended his season in March, the 34-year-old will compete for a fourth-line role with the Oilers during training camp.

Gagner will miss the rest of the season, as he will undergo hip surgery, Ken Wiebe of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner has been having difficulty with his hip and has decided to undergo surgery. He finishes the season with eight goals and six assists in 48 games.

Gagner scored a goal on one shot, fueling the Jets to a 3-2 win over Calgary on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner tipped home a shot from Ville Heinola to score the eventual game-winning goal with 5:40 left to play in the third period. This goal snaps Gagner's five-game pointless streak and gives him seven goals on the season. Gagner should continue to see time with the second power-play unit.

Gagner scored a goal on two shots during a 5-1 victory over the visiting Senators on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner is beginning to add another consistent scorer to the Jets' lineup, which has amassed five goals in six of their past 10 December outings. The 33-year-old center did not score during an 18-game stretch (Oct. 27-Dec. 11) but has collected three goals in his past five games. Gagner, who is four games shy of 1,000 for his career, contributed two shots, two hits and a plus-2 rating against the Senators.
