There are few forwards in Bakersfield this year who could have a material impact on Edmonton’s postseason. Condors currently on the NHL roster (Max Jones) or on the NHL injury list (Connor Clattenburg) aren’t eligible for the ranking. Here’s a look at the current recall ranking among forwards.
Connor McDavid had two goals and an assist and Tristan Jarry made 25 saves in his first game for Edmonton, helping the Oilers beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 6-3 on Saturday night.
McDavid began Edmonton’s five-goal spurt, tying the game 2-2 at 10:29 of the second period when his centering pass was inadvertently put in by Toronto defenseman Troy Stecher as he attempted to clear the puck away from the slot on a play that was ruled an own goal. The Oilers then scored three times in 2:26 to take a three-goal lead.

Selected by Edmonton with the No. 3 pick in the 2014 NHL Draft, Draisaitl has long surpassed Marco Sturm (487 points) as the highest-scoring Germany-born player, and will continue to elevate the bar. He is in his 12th NHL season and the first season of an eight-year, $112-million contract ($14 million average annual value) with Edmonton.
The Montreal Canadiens will have a chance to bounce back against the Edmonton Oilers after a subpar performance against the New York Rangers on Saturday night.
