Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to Return Saturday
Edmonton Oilers forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (undisclosed) will be back in action on Saturday against the Seattle Kraken. He has missed nine games due to an undisclosed injury. Nugent-Hopkins' return will be a welcome boost for the 10-10-5 Oilers. The veteran is averaging a point per game for the season, sitting on five goals and 11 assists in 16 outings. He has practiced on the third line this week and will join Edmonton's first power-play unit. Most of Nugent-Hopkins' points this season have come with the man advantage, as he has tallied two goals and seven assists on the power play. Seattle has the NHL's third-worst penalty-killing percentage, which could help Nugent-Hopkins make a big impact in Saturday's matchup.
