Overview
- Edmonton confirmed Jake Walman’s IR placement after he missed the season opener with an undisclosed injury.
- The designation is retroactive to his last appearance in the preseason, making him eligible for activation once cleared.
- He will not play against the Vancouver Canucks, and the team has not provided a short‑term return timeline.
- The transaction enables the Oilers to officially add recent signing Jack Roslovic to the lineup.
- The move follows Walman’s seven‑year, $49 million extension announced earlier this week after a 40‑point, heavy‑minutes 2024–25 campaign.
