Edmonton Oilers centre Mattias Janmark will make his return to the lineup Wednesday for Game 1 against the Vegas Golden Knights. Oilers forward Derek Ryan will sit to make room for Janmark.
Janmark injured his foot blocking a shot late in Game 1 of the Oilers' opening round against the Los Angeles Kings and didn't play for the remainder of the series that Edmonton won in six games.
A savvy veteran of 62 NHL playoff games, Janmark had 10 goals and 25 points in 66 games for the Oilers this season.
Ryan had one goal and played in all six games for the Oilers in Round 1.
You can watch Game 1 between the Oilers and Golden Knights live on Sportsnet and SN NOW starting at 9:30 p.m. ET / 7:30 p.m. MT.
