Kassian (personal) is expected to return to the lineup Monday against the Canadiens, Jack Michaels of Oilers Radio reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kassian (personal) won't suit up in Saturday's game against the Canadiens, Guillaume Lefrancois of Lapresse.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Josh Archibald will take Kassian's place as Connor McDavid's right wing. Kassian's next chance to play is Monday in a rematch against the Habs.

Kassian notched an assist and four hits in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Kassian played the middleman between Ethan Bear and Darnell Nurse to help create the Oilers' second goal of the game. Opening the year on Connor McDavid's wing, Kassian should see a boost in fantasy value as long as he retains a top-six role. The 29-year-old Kassian also led the team with four hits -- he had 348 hits and 60 points in 138 games over the previous two years. His top-line assignment could make him a solid option in deeper fantasy formats.

Kassian tallied 15 goals and 34 points through 59 games before play was paused in mid-March.

EDGE Analysis

The big guy matched his career high in goals from last year and likely would set a new best in the team's remaining 11 games should regular-season play resume. As usual, Kassian has continued to provide muscle on a line with superstar Connor McDavid in dishing out 157 hits, which ranks 33rd in the league despite the fact he missed 12 games due to suspension (nine) and injury (three). The 29-year-old carries some risk due to his undisciplined play at times, but those in deeper formats that count hits have gotten some decent value from the oft-maligned winger.

Kassian dished an assist, three hits and three shots on goal in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Kassian set up Connor McDavid's goal at 18:23 of the second period. After some time away from the top line, Kassian returned to that role Wednesday. He's up to 34 points, 99 shots, 157 hits and 69 PIM through 59 appearances in 2019-20. As long as he remains on McDavid's wing, he could be worth a look in deeper fantasy formats.

Kassian notched an assist and three hits in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Kassian has picked up assists in each of the last two games. The physical winger now has 33 points, 94 shots and 152 hits through 57 games in what's been a career year offensively for Kassian.

Kassian picked up an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Kassian skated only 9:39 in the contest, his second-lowest ice time of the year and the lowest among all skaters in the game. The 29-year-old winger has done alright in a limited role lately, with a goal, an assist and 10 hits in four contests since he returned from a suspension. Kassian now has 32 points, 149 hits, 93 shots and a minus-1 rating in 56 appearances.

Kassian scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Monday's 8-3 win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

The 29-year-old winger potted his 15th goal of the season to stretch the Oilers' lead to 6-3 during the third period. Kassian is up to 31 points, 144 hits, 91 shots and 69 PIM in 53 contests. He's in a third-line role currently -- that deployment isn't likely to lead to much offense for Kassian.

Kassian recorded three hits in 18:13 during Saturday's 3-2 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Kassian received a seven-game ban for kicking the Lightning's Erik Cernak on Feb. 13. The 29-year-old Kassian didn't return to his previous top-line role alongside Connor McDavid -- he instead played on Riley Sheahan's left wing on the third line. For the year, Kassian has 30 points, 142 hits and 69 PIM in 53 contests. His ability to contribute offense will be limited if he stays in a bottom-six assignment.

Kassian received a seven-game suspension for his actions in Thursday's game against the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

Kassian kicked Erik Cernak in the chest with his skate blade, a dangerous play that wasn't penalized in the game. The 29-year-old winger served a two-game suspension in January -- he was deemed a repeat offender by the Department of Player Safety. The seven-game ban will keep Kassian off the ice until Feb. 29 versus the Jets.
