Oilers' Roby Jarventie: Obtained in deal
Edmonton received Jarventie and a 2025 fourth-round pick from Ottawa on Monday in exchange for Xavier Bourgault and Jake Chiasson.
Jarventie collected nine goals, 20 points and 22 PIM in 22 regular-season outings for AHL Belleville last season. He also registered one assist, five shots on goal, six blocked shots and five hits in seven NHL appearances with Ottawa during the 2023-24 campaign. Jarventie will probably begin the upcoming season in the minors but could be among the first call-ups by the Oilers if reinforcements are required.

Oilers' Raphael Lavoie: Grabs two-way deal
Lavoie inked a one-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Monday.
Lavoie played in seven NHL regular-season games this past year in which he registered zero points, four shots on goal and 13 hits while averaging 7:17 of ice time. Even with a new deal in hand, the 23-year-old center is unlikely to start the season on the NHL roster, instead playing the bulk of his games with AHL Bakersfield in the minors.

Oilers' Matthew Savoie: Changes teams
Savoie was acquired by the Oilers from the Sabres on Friday in exchange for Ryan McLeod and Tyler Tullio, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.
Savoie had 19 goals and 47 points across 23 regular-season contests with WHL Moose Jaw in 2023-24 and then provided another 10 goals and 24 points across 19 playoff outings. He also got his first taste of NHL action Nov. 10 with Buffalo, though he logged just 3:55 of ice time in that appearance and didn't record a shot or point. The 20-year-old was selected by the Sabres with the No. 9 overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft. While he has plenty of potential, Savoie shouldn't be counted on to make an impact with Edmonton in 2024-25.

Oilers' Adam Henrique: Re-ups with Edmonton
Henrique signed a two-year, $3 million AAV deal with the Oilers on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Oilers' Evander Kane: Dealing with hip injury
Kane has been dealing with a hip issue but there has not yet been a decision on whether or not he'll need surgery, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Kane missed the final five games of the Stanley Cup Finals but was reportedly working through an abdomen injury at the time. The veteran winger scored eight points in 20 postseason contests after scoring 24 goals and 44 points during the regular season. The team will likely have a better idea on his outlook over the coming weeks.

Oilers' Troy Stecher: Sticking with Edmonton
Stetcher (ankle) signed a two-year, $1.575 million contract with the Oilers on Monday.
Stecher underwent ankle surgery this offseason and his recovery timeline is currently unknown. The 30-year-old scored seven points in 54 regular-season games with Edmonton and Arizona but did not appear in a playoff game. Once healthy, he'll provide the Oilers with some depth on the blue line.

Oilers' Mattias Janmark: Inks three-year contract
Janmark signed a three-year, $4.35 million contract with the Oilers on Monday, per Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic
Janmark had four goals, 12 points, 46 PIM and 54 hits in 71 regular-season contests with Edmonton in 2024-25. He also recorded four goals, eight points, 12 PIM and 23 hits in 25 playoff appearances. Janmark is projected to serve primarily on Edmonton's fourth line in 2024-25.

Oilers' Jeff Skinner: Looks to rebound with one-year deal
Skinner signed a one-year, $3 million contract with the Oilers on Monday, per Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic.
The final three seasons of Skinner's eight-year, $72 million contract were bought out by the Sabres after he was limited to 24 goals and 46 points in 74 outings in 2023-24. While his production wasn't sufficient to justify his old contract, his new price is reasonable for a winger who would be a strong presence on Edmonton's third line. Skinner has also exceeded the 30-goal milestone on six occasions, including the 2021-22 and 2022-23 campaigns, so there's also that outside chance that he could end up being a steal for the Oilers. Keep a close eye on how Edmonton utilizes him. While there's stiff competition for top-six spots, his fantasy value would naturally increase meaningfully if he gets to play alongside Connor McDavid or Leon Draisaitl.

Oilers' Connor Carrick: Receives one-year deal
Carrick signed a one-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Monday.
Carrick registered nine goals, 34 points and 66 PIM across 70 regular-season outings for AHL Coachella Valley in 2023-24. He will probably spend most, if not all, of 2024-25 in the minors. The 30-year-old rearguard has 13 goals and 50 points in 242 career NHL contests.

Oilers' Collin Delia: Inks two-way contract
Delia signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Oilers on Monday.

Oilers' Corey Perry: Not done playing yet
Perry signed a one-year, $1.4 million contract with the Oilers on Monday.
Perry had 12 goals, 22 points and 46 PIM in 54 regular-season contests between Chicago and Edmonton in 2023-24. He also recorded a goal, three points and 12 PIM across 19 playoff appearances with the Oilers. Perry is projected to serve in a bottom-six role, but at the age of 39, he's could be a healthy scratch a fair amount of the time.

Oilers' Josh Brown: Gets three-year deal
Brown signed a three-year, $3 million contract with the Oilers on Monday.
Brown had three goals, 10 points, 75 PIM, 112 hits and 85 blocked shots in 51 contests with the Coyotes in 2023-24. The 30-year-old might end up frequently serving as a healthy scratch with Edmonton, but Brown will provide some grit on the third pairing when he is in the lineup.

Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Agrees to potentially bargain deal
Arvidsson signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the Oilers on Monday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
That's a potentially fantastic deal for Edmonton. Arvidsson was limited to 18 regular-season contests in 2023-24 due to injury, but he recorded a respectable six goals and 15 points with the Kings when healthy. The 31-year-old has surpassed the 60-point mark twice in his career and finished the 2022-23 campaign with 26 goals and 59 points across 77 outings. Provided Arvidsson can stay relatively healthy, he should be a great addition to Edmonton's top six and benefit from typically playing with one of Connor McDavid or Leon Draisaitl. That said, Arvidsson is unlikely to crack the top power-play unit.

Oilers' Noel Hoefenmayer: Inks two-way contract
Hoefenmayer signed a one-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Monday.
Hoefenmayer produced seven goals, 18 points and 64 PIM in 47 regular-season contests for AHL Bakersfield in 2023-24. The 25-year-old blueliner doesn't have any NHL experience yet. Hoefenmayer will likely spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors.

Oilers' Noah Philp: Agrees to one-year contract
Philp signed a one-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Monday.
Philp accounted for 19 goals and 37 points in 70 regular-season games for AHL Bakersfield in 2022-23. Due to personal reasons, he did not play any hockey this past campaign, but the 25-year-old forward will resume his playing career in 2024-25. Philp will likely spend most, if not all, of the upcoming season in the minors.

Oilers' James Hamblin: Signs two-way deal
Hamblin signed a two-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Monday.
Hamblin had two goals and one assist in 31 regular-season games with the Oilers in 2023-24. He also notched four goals and four helpers in 13 regular-season contests for AHL Bakersfield this past campaign. Hamblin will compete for a bottom-six spot during Edmonton's training camp.

Oilers' Connor Brown: Pens one-year deal
Brown inked a one-year, $1 million contract with Edmonton on Monday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Brown will take a significant pay cut from the one-year, $4 million deal he played on last season in order to remain with the Oilers. For the Stanley Cup contenders, the 30-year-old winger certainly offers plenty of value as a bottom-six penalty killer, but he won't provide much in terms of fantasy production considering he managed just 12 points in 71 regular-season contests last year.

Oilers' Eemil Vinni: Grabbed in Round 2
Vinni was the 64th overall pick by the Oilers in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft on Saturday.
The No. 1 rated European goaltender by NHL Central Scouting, Vinni didn't have a great year for his club team (17-9-10, 2.72 GAA, .892 save percentage) in Finland's second-tier Metsis league but had some successful moments for his home country on the international circuit. At 6-foot-2, 185 pounds, Vinni has ideal NHL size. He has been prone to giving up the bad goal at times, but Vinni's athleticism and side-to-side movements are among the best in the class. It's going to be several years before the Oilers see a return on their investment here. Vinni is expected to move up the chain and play for HIFK in Finland's top-tier Liiga this coming season.

Oilers' Sam O'Reilly: Heads to Oil Country at draft
O'Reilly was the 32nd overall pick by the Oilers in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft on Friday.
The Hunter boys in London (OHL) run one of the best NHL feeder systems outside pro hockey, so it's little wonder that O'Reilly was a first rounder. He's a two-way pivot with skill whose compete stands out as his best attribute. O'Reilly isn't flashy -- he's more quietly efficient like former Knights, Connor McMichael, who has carved out a sturdy NHL career, or maybe former Hawk, David Bolland. O'Reilly is another one of those better on the ice than in the fantasy arena guys, so ignore him unless your dynasty format is deep.

Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Signs two-year contract
Pickard signed a two-year, $2 million contract with the Oilers on Friday, per Frank Seravalli of Daily Faceoff.
Pickard had a 12-7-1 record, 2.45 GAA and .909 save percentage in 23 regular-season contests with Edmonton in 2023-24. He's projected to open the 2024-25 campaign as the backup goaltender behind Stuart Skinner. The Oilers also have Jack Campbell under contract for three more seasons with a $5 million annual cap hit, but he spent most of the recent campaign in the minors and seems unlikely to earn a roster spot with Edmonton to start the season if he remains with the franchise.
