Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Scores again Sunday
Podkolzin scored a goal, added four hits and blocked two shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Golden Knights.
Podkolzin has scored in consecutive contests for the second time this season. The 24-year-old winger is up to a career-high 15 goals on the year, as well as 29 points, 101 shots on net, 190 hits, 34 blocked shots, 51 PIM and a plus-15 rating through 64 appearances.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Tallies in loss
Podkolzin scored a goal on two shots and added five hits in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Hurricanes.
Podkolzin has scored twice over his last four games. The 24-year-old forward is filling a third-line role, which could make it hard to sustain a high level of offense, though he could get shuffled up to the second line at some point to give the Oilers a new look. Podkolzin has earned a career-high 28 points with 100 shots on net, 186 hits, 51 PIM, 32 blocked shots and a plus-14 rating over 63 outings this season, making him a decent depth winger in fantasy.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Lights lamp Thursday
Podkolzin scored a goal on six shots and added two hits in Thursday's 8-1 win over the Kings.
Podkolzin's first-period tally ended up being the game-winner. The winger has a goal and three assists during his four-game point streak, which followed a six-game slide. The 24-year-old is currently on the Oilers' third line, but he's seen success when moved to the second line, which could be an option if Jack Roslovic or Matt Savoie starts to falter. With the goal Thursday, Podkolzin has a career-best 27 points with 96 shots, 170 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating across 60 appearances this season.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: One of each Sunday
Podkolzin scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, logged two hits and went plus-3 in Sunday's 5-0 win over the Blues.
Podkolzin has three goals and four helpers over his last eight outings. The 24-year-old was on the first line at even strength for the second game in a row, and it looks like he's having no trouble adjusting from Leon Draisaitl (personal) to Connor McDavid. Podkolzin is up to 12 goals, 11 assists, 73 shots on net, 145 hits, 25 PIM and a plus-14 rating over 50 appearances. He's one point shy of matching his total from all 82 regular-season contests last year.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Scores in big win
Podkolzin scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.
Podkolzin has two goals and three assists over his last seven outings. He was able to get a little revenge against his former team, scoring the Oilers' last goal in their second-period rampage. Podkolzin is up to 11 goals, 21 points, 71 shots on net, 143 hits, 26 blocked shots, 25 PIM and a plus-11 rating over 49 appearances. He was on the top line while Ryan Nugent-Hopkins moved to center the second line in the absence of Leon Draisaitl (personal), so Podkolzin could have a bit more upside in the short term.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Pots another goal
Podkolzin scored a goal and added two hits in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Jets.
Podkolzin ended a nine-game goal drought with the tally. The 24-year-old still has room to grow in terms of being consistent, but he's in a good position for success as long as he can stay on the second line. The winger has reached the 10-goal mark for the second time in his career and is up to 19 points, 65 shots, 132 hits, 25 PIM and 25 blocked shots over 44 outings this season.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Earns pair of assists
Podkolzin notched two assists and three hits in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Predators.
Podkolzin snapped an eight-game point drought with this effort. He had a hand in goals by linemates Leon Draisaitl and Kasperi Kapanen, and that new-look second line could stick together after Tuesday's success. Podkolzin now has 18 points, 64 shots on net, 130 hits, 25 blocked shots, 25 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 43 appearances, giving him some upside as a depth forward in fantasy.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Good to go
Podkolzin (illness) will play against Philadelphia on Saturday, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Podkolzin won't miss any game action after being absent from Friday's practice. He has accounted for nine goals, 16 points, 62 shots on net and 126 hits in 41 appearances this season. With Podkolzin available to play, Andrew Mangiapane will be a healthy scratch.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Misses practice Friday
Podkolzin (illness) sat out practice Friday, according to Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network.
Podkolzin should be considered questionable for Saturday's tilt against the Flyers. Podkolzin has nine goals, seven assists, 126 hits and 62 shots on goal over 41 games this season. He is slated to play on the second line with Leon Draisaitl and Jack Roslovic if healthy, otherwise Andrew Mangiapane could play on the line.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Tickles twine in win
Podkolzin scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Penguins.
Podkolzin has been strong in December with five goals and an assist over eight games this month. It's already his most productive month of the season, which has seen him rack up nine goals, 16 points, 55 shots on net, 102 hits, 11 PIM and a plus-13 rating through 34 outings overall. Podkolzin has earned his place on the second line with Leon Draisaitl, and that's an assignment that will likely keep the 24-year-old winger productive more often than not.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Five points in last five games
Podkolzin scored twice Saturday in a 6-3 victory over the Maple Leafs.
Podkolzin's first tally was the game-winner after Leon Draisaitl's shot caromed off his left knee and past Dennis Hildeby. Podkolzin potted another just 34 seconds later when he redirected Draisaitl's pass in the slot. Podkolzin is heating up. He has five points, including four goals, and 10 shots in his last four games. He may be on the wire given his overall stat line, which consists of eight goals, seven assists and 52 shots in 32 appearances.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Deposits goal in comeback effort
Podkolzin scored a goal on three shots, added three hits and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sabres.
Podkolzin continues to be a strong supplementary player to the Oilers' stars. He's earned three goals and two assists over his last seven outings to make the most of his turn on the second line. For the season, the 24-year-old winger is at six goals, 13 points, 47 shots on net, 89 hits, 19 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating across 30 appearances. Podkolzin should be on the fantasy radar in most formats, especially those that reward the rough stuff.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Pots goal in big win
Podkolzin scored a goal and added three hits in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Kraken.
Podkolzin has two goals and an assist, as well as 12 hits, over his last five games. The 24-year-old put the Oilers ahead 2-0 just 17 seconds after Connor McDavid opened the scoring. Podkolzin's usage in a top-six role, in addition to his physicality, makes him intriguing in a variety of fantasy formats. For the season, he's at five goals, six helpers, 43 shots on net, 82 hits and a plus-7 rating through 28 appearances. He's on track to challenge for the first 30-point campaign of his career.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Nets eventual game-winner
Podkolzin scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Panthers.
Podkolzin stretched the Oilers' lead to 4-1 in the second period. While they bent under pressure over the remainder of that frame, the lead held, with the 24-year-old's goal standing as the game-winner. He's picked up just four points over 12 outings in November despite primarily working on the second line. For the season, he's at four goals, nine points, 36 shots on net, 72 hits and a plus-6 rating. Podkolzin's on track to surpass the career-best 26 points he put up as a rookie with the Canucks in 2021-22.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Scores in Thursday's loss
Podkolzin scored a goal and added three hits in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Podkolzin has two goals and an assist over his last five games. The 24-year-old has been consistently in a middle-six role over the last few weeks, but he could lose some minutes with Zach Hyman (wrist) set for his season debut Saturday versus the Hurricanes. Podkolzin has three goals, eight points, 32 shots on net, 63 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 19 appearances, so he'll still bring depth scoring and physical play regardless of his place in the lineup.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Ends scoring drought
Podkolzin scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Stars.
Podkolzin ended a six-game goal drought with a snap shot at the 3:40 mark of the first period, but the Stars completed the comeback and ended up winning after a thrilling shootout. Despite occupying a second-line role, Podkolzin has only two goals this campaign while posting a measly 7.7 percent shooting percentage through 15 appearances.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Two-point performance in win
Podkolzin scored a goal, added an assist and logged two hits in Thursday's 6-5 win over the Canadiens.
Podkolzin's goal with 1:09 left in the third period was the game-winner, and it was also his first tally of the season. The 24-year-old is up to four points, eight shots on net, 28 hits, six blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over eight appearances this season. He's been firmly in a third-line role with no power-play time, which will make it tough for the winger to carve out high-end offense. He had 24 points over 82 regular-season outings in a similar role last year.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Offers helper in win
Podkolzin notched an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Canucks.
The helper was Podkolzin's first point in two games this season. He's added four shots on net, eight hits and a minus-1 rating while filling a third-line role. Podkolzin had 24 points in 82 regular-season contests in 2024-25, often featuring in a second-line spot alongside Leon Draisaitl, but that's not something that's currently available with Draisaitl playing on the first line. As such, don't expect much offense from Podkolzin this year unless the Oilers shake up their lineup in a significant way.

Oilers' Vasily Podkolzin: Set to rejoin team Wednesday
Head coach Kris Knoblauch said Sunday that Podkolzin (personal) is expected to return to Edmonton on Tuesday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Podkolzin will rejoin the team at practice Wednesday, though he won't play in that night's preseason game versus the Kraken. However, the 24-year-old will suit up against the Canucks on Friday, according to Brar. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Podkolzin should be good to go for Opening Night against the Flames on Oct. 8.
