Oilers' Jason Dickinson: Nets first goal with Oilers
Rotowire
Dickinson scored a goal, served six PIM and dished out five hits in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Stars.
Dickinson found the back of the net just under 12 minutes into the second period to grab his first goal with the Oilers. Across 51 games between Chicago and Edmonton this season, he has seven goals, 14 points, 56 shots on net, 68 hits and 40 blocked shots. He should continue to serve as the Oilers' third-line center, and his change of scenery could lead to Dickinson making an impact in deep fantasy leagues down the stretch of the regular season.

Rotowire
Dickinson and Colton Dach were traded Wednesday to the Oilers from the Blackhawks in exchange for Andrew Mangiapane and a 2027 first-round pick, freelance insider Frank Seravalli reports.
Dickinson is the Oilers' latest option to fill a true third-line role, which means Ryan Nugent-Hopkins should be a full-time winger moving forward. Dickinson has just 13 points in 47 outings this season, but he's added 51 hits and 36 blocked shots. Look for Dickinson to also receive ample time on the penalty kill with the Oilers.

Blackhawks' Jason Dickinson: Nets go-ahead tally Monday
Rotowire
Dickinson scored a goal and recorded three shots on net in Monday's 2-0 shutout win over Winnipeg.
Dickinson's tally over halfway into the second period would stand as the go-ahead goal in Monday's contest, with goalie Spencer Knight keeping Winnipeg off the scoreboard. With the twine finder, Dickinson is up to six goals, 10 points, 47 shots on net, 41 hits and 27 blocks through 36 games this season. While he has supplied four goals since Dec. 16, his offensive production has taken a step back from the consecutive 30-plus point regular seasons that he posted to begin his tenure in Chicago three campaigns ago. He still has time to reach the 20-point mark this year, but his lack of high-end category coverage likely leaves more desirable options available in deep fantasy leagues.
