Hyman logged two assists, three shots on goal and five hits in Friday's 7-4 win over the Kings in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
Hyman has earned a goal, two assists, six shots on net, 14 hits and an even plus-minus rating over three playoff contests. The 32-year-old winger set up goals by Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Connor McDavid. As long as Hyman's in a top-six role, he should have a good chance to be productive on offense. He closed the regular season on a seven-game skid followed by a three-game injury absence, but he's looked pretty close to 100 percent in the postseason.

Hyman scored a goal, added six hits and logged two PIM in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Kings in Game 1.
EDGE Analysis
Hyman brought the Oilers within a goal with 2:04 left in the third period, and Connor McDavid tied it at 5-5 just 36 seconds later. The Oilers' comeback push ended up being for naught, as the Kings won on a Phillip Danault goal with 42 seconds left in regulation. In any case, it was good to see Hyman healthy enough to play after he missed the last three games of the regular season. The 32-year-old winger should feature in a top-six role and see power-play time after racking up 27 goals and 44 points over 73 regular-season contests.

Hyman (undisclosed) is expected to play in Game 1 against the Kings on Monday, per Derek Van Diest of NHL.com on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
After missing the final three games of the regular season, Hyman will return to a top-six role and a spot on the first power-play unit. The 32-year-old forward produced 27 goals, 44 points and 210 shots on net in 73 appearances during the 2024-25 regular season.

Hyman (undisclosed) is projected to miss Wednesday's game versus the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Hyman unsurprisingly won't be in the lineup in a regular-season finale with no stakes. It's unclear if he'll play Game 1 versus the Kings in the first round, but getting him back in a top-six role would be a boost for an Oilers lineup that has been plagued by injuries lately.

Hyman (undisclosed) will not be an option versus the Kings on Monday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hyman will miss his second straight game due to his undisclosed injury, but hasn't been ruled out for the season finale versus San Jose on Wednesday. Considering there is a chance that Hyman plays in that contest, the 32-year-old winger should be expected to return no later than Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Prior to his absence, he went seven games without a point.

Hyman (undisclosed) will not play Sunday against the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
After leaving Friday's game versus San Jose with an injury, Hyman will remain sidelined Sunday. The severity of the injury is still unclear, though Edmonton figures to play it safe with the 32-year-old winger ahead of the postseason. Hyman has 27 goals and 44 points in 73 games this year.

Hyman (undisclosed) won't return to Friday's game versus the Sharks, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hyman was hurt in the second period, but the nature and severity of his injury are unknown. The Oilers have nearly secured their playoff spot, so they're taking a cautious approach with most injuries, and there have been plenty of them over the last couple of weeks. It's unclear if Hyman will be healthy enough to suit up Sunday in Winnipeg -- if not, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (illness) could be an option if he recovers in time.

Hyman scored a goal on four shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Hyman continues to shine amid the Oilers' brutal stretch of injuries. He has five goals and two assists over his last five contests since returning from a one-game absence of his own. The 32-year-old is up to 27 goals, 44 points, 196 shots on net, 51 hits, 30 PIM and a plus-15 rating over 66 appearances as a regular in the top six.

Hyman scored a goal on six shots in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Hyman's six shots led the Oilers, and he was able to cash in late in the third period. It wasn't enough, as they weren't able to find an equalizing goal. The 32-year-old winger has four goals and two assists over his last four outings. For the season, he has 26 goals, 43 points, 192 shots on net, 51 hits, 28 PIM and a plus-15 rating over 65 appearances.

Hyman logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Hyman has five points over his last three games, but this was his first power-play point since Feb. 5 versus the Blackhawks. The 32-year-old winger will be asked to handle more responsibilities on offense while Connor McDavid (lower body) and Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed) are out of the lineup. Hyman's game isn't solely dependent on linemates -- he gets to the front of the net and cleans up scraps, so he just needs to play alongside a shoot-first player. For the season, he has 42 points (12 on the power play), 186 shots on net, 50 hits, 28 PIM and a plus-14 rating over 64 appearances.
