Oilers Activate Zach Hyman After LTIR Stint With Stecher Claimed by Maple Leafs

Toronto addressed blue-line depth by claiming Troy Stecher after placing Anthony Stolarz on injured reserve.

Overview

  • Edmonton officially activated Zach Hyman and he is slated to make his season debut against the Hurricanes this weekend.
  • The Oilers waived defenseman Troy Stecher to clear cap and roster space, and Toronto claimed him on Saturday.
  • The Maple Leafs placed goaltender Anthony Stolarz on injured reserve retroactive to November 11 as a corresponding move.
  • Edmonton also reassigned rookie forward Isaac Howard to the AHL’s Bakersfield Condors as part of the roster shuffle.
  • Hyman returns from wrist surgery sustained in last spring’s playoffs, with expectations he boosts even‑strength scoring for an Oilers team that has struggled at five‑on‑five.
