Top Viktor Arvidsson News

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Not playing Thursday

    Arvidsson (undisclosed) is out of action Thursday against the Wild and is not expected to play Saturday against the Rangers, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Arvidsson has missed the last four games and will not dress Thursday at home against Minnesota. The 31-year-old winger was expected to have a big season as a second-line winger with Leon Draisaitl as his center, but that has not come to fruition, as Arvidsson has only two goals and five points over 16 games.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Put on injured reserve

    Arvidsson was placed on injured reserve Thursday.

    Arvidsson was already ruled out for Thursday's game against Minnesota, but his placement on IR can be retroactive to Nov. 12, so he can be activated whenever he's ready to return. The 31-year-old has two goals and five points over 16 appearances in 2024-25. Arvidsson might get another opportunity on the top six once he's healthy, but he isn't guaranteed that role.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Still out Tuesday

    Arvidsson (undisclosed) won't play Tuesday versus the Senators, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Won't play Monday

    Arvidsson (undisclosed) won't play Monday against Montreal, according to Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels.

    Arvidsson will miss his third straight game. He has generated two goals, five points and 38 shots on net through 16 appearances this season. Edmonton will dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen again versus the Canadiens, but Josh Brown will replace Darnell Nurse (upper body) in the lineup.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Unavailable Saturday

    Arvidsson (undisclosed) won't play Saturday versus Toronto, per Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels.

    Arvidsson participated in Saturday's morning skate but will miss his second straight game. Edmonton will dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen versus the Maple Leafs, with Troy Stecher remaining in the lineup. Arvidsson has two goals, five points and 38 shots on net through 16 appearances this season.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Ruled out against Preds

    Arvidsson (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Nashville, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

    While Arvidsson won't be an option for Thursday's tilt, he could still be ready to face the Maple Leafs on Saturday. In the meantime, rather than call up an additional forward, the Oilers are going to roll with seven defensemen, which means Travis Dermott will rejoin the lineup after being a healthy scratch for the last four contests.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Questionable for Thursday

    Arvidsson (undisclosed) is questionable for Thursday's game after missing Wednesday's practice, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

    Arvidsson has two goals and five points over 16 outings with the Oilers in 2024-25. Edmonton might dress seven blueliners and 11 forwards if Arvidsson ends up not being available Thursday. His absence might also result in Jeff Skinner, who has been skating on the fourth line, moving up to the second unit.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Tallies in big win

    Arvidsson scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Canucks.

    Arvidsson has two goals over his last seven games as he continues to struggle to put up consistent offense. The winger gave the Oilers a 3-0 lead in the second period. He's maintained a top-six role but is losing out on power-play time after posting a mere five points with 36 shots on net and a plus-2 rating across 15 appearances this season.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Scores early in win

    Arvidsson scored a goal on five shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Predators.

    Arvidsson opened the season with no goals over 10 games, but it didn't take him long to strike in his 11th appearance. He scored just 37 seconds into the first period, earning his fourth point of the campaign. The 31-year-old winger spent the first seven seasons of his career with the Predators. He's collected 25 shots on net, five hits, four PIM and an even plus-minus rating in 2024-25. Look for Arvidsson to feature alongside Leon Draisaitl on the top line while Connor McDavid (ankle) is out.

  • Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Distributes three assists

    Arvidsson notched three assists, including one on the power play, in Friday's 4-0 win over the Penguins.

    Despite consistent top-six minutes, Arvidsson's Oilers tenure got off to a silent start -- he had no points over his first seven games with the team. The 31-year-old got on the scoresheet Friday, helping out on tallies by Leon Draisaitl, Evan Bouchard and Mattias Ekholm. Arvidsson has added 15 shots on net, four hits, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over eight appearances. He's topped the 50-point mark in three of his 10 NHL campaigns, and a top-six role in Edmonton is a good spot to pick up offense, but Arvidsson is still working on chemistry with his new teammates.

  • 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.

  • Kings' Viktor Arvidsson: Hands out assist in Game 2

    Arvidsson logged an assist, three hits and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Oilers in Game 2.

    Arvidsson set up Drew Doughty's breakaway tally in the first period. With two helpers over two playoff contests, Arvidsson is settling in nicely on the second line. The winger has added four shots on net. He closed the regular season with 10 points over his last nine outings, so it shouldn't be surprising to see the 31-year-old finding success on offense in the postseason.

  • Kings' Viktor Arvidsson: Offers helper in loss

    Arvidsson notched an assist, three shots on goal and a minus-3 rating in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 1.

    Arvidsson helped out on a Mikey Anderson goal in the second period. With seven points over his last five contests, Arvidsson is carrying some momentum on offense into the postseason. He was limited to 18 regular-season games but still produced 15 points and 59 shots on net over that span, making him a solid depth option for fantasy playoff competitions.

  • Kings' Viktor Arvidsson: Scores two goals Thursday

    Arvidsson scored twice and added an assist in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

    Arvidsson got the Kings on the board in the second period, set up a Trevor Moore tally late in the frame and then scored a power-play marker late in the third to force overtime. Arvidsson has been strong in April with five goals and five assists over nine contests. While he was limited to 18 regular-season appearances, Arvidsson produced 14 points (five on the power play), 59 shots on net and a plus-4 rating while seeing top-six minutes over that stretch. He'll be a solid choice for fantasy managers participating in playoff contests.
