The Edmonton Oilers have been through a turbulent stretch, with key players sidelined and the team struggling to find consistent form. After a tough loss to the Dallas Stars, fans have been anxiously awaiting updates on their new favorite player, hoping for some positive news.

Amid the frustration of high-scoring losses and lineup uncertainties, there are signs that the team could regain its momentum soon. Injuries have been a major concern, but recent updates bring some encouragement for the Oilers’ depth.

Roslovic Injury Update Brings Hope After Tough Loss vs. Stars

Edmonton’s recent matchup against the Dallas Stars turned into a challenging night as the Oilers fell 8-3 at Rogers Place. Jamie Benn celebrated his 400th NHL goal while Dallas’ offense ran rampant, with Wyatt Johnston and Jason Robertson contributing multiple points.

The Oilers’ defense and goaltending struggled to contain the Stars, leaving fans hoping for a swift turnaround. Despite the loss, there was a bright spot in the form of Jack Roslovic, who managed to score Edmonton’s third goal before leaving the ice due to a heavy hit.

Jack Roslovic, 28, had been one of the Oilers’ most reliable forwards this season, with 10 goals and 18 points through 23 games. NHL insider Jim Matheson reported that “Knoblauch says Roslovic has no broken bones where he was hit with a Dallas shot Tuesday but still out several weeks,” providing fans with some relief.

Jason Gregor also shared updates on X, confirming that Roslovic would be out for multiple weeks, while Kapanen faces at least a week, and Walman is progressing and could return soon.

The absence of Roslovic is significant, but there is cautious optimism. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is expected back in the lineup after missing nine games, and Curtis Lazar will return following a four-game absence. These additions will help stabilize Edmonton’s lineup while Roslovic recovers. His consistent play has made him a dependable middle-six forward capable of contributing offensively, and the team will hope to see him back as soon as possible.

Looking ahead, the Oilers will face the Seattle Kraken on Nov. 29 at 4:00 PM ET. Players like Leon Draisaitl and Brandon Montour are expected to be key contributors, while goaltenders Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard will aim to improve on recent struggles. With Roslovic’s return expected soon, the Oilers will aim to turn the current rough stretch into a stepping stone for stronger performances in the weeks to come.
