Looks like the walking wounded are about to return. Oilers left winger Warren Foegele along with centerman Ryan McLeod returned to practice after both suffering injuries.
Before the injury, Ryan McLeod had a 3-point night in a four-to-three win over the New York Rangers missed 10 games due to a lower-body injury. McLeod is eyeing a return to the lineup on Saturday against Anaheim.
Warren Foegele was also injured during the Rangers game and is available for the Oilers, however, Head Coach Jay Woodcroft is taking a wait-and-see approach for his return. The Oilers placed Brad Malone on waivers to be reassigned to the Bakersfield condors.
The 23-year-old McLeod was drafted in the 2018 Entry Draft second round 40th pick overall. He has played 21 games and has three goals and 5 assists for eight points.
Foegele has played 20 games for the Oilers this season with three goals, and two assists for five points. He was drafted by the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2014 Entry draft, third round 67th pick overall.
The Oilers are at home playing the Anaheim Ducks With a start time of 4:00 PM.
