This news comes as a blow to the Oilers, who were relying on Ryan's experience and defensive prowess to help contain the high-powered Vegas offense. However, it presents an opportunity for Mattias Janmark, who is set to make his return to the ice after a brief spell on the sidelines. Janmark's offensive skills and ability to create chances could prove to be a valuable asset for the Oilers in Ryan's absence.
The Oilers will need to dig deep and adapt to this last-minute change if they hope to secure a victory in their opening game of the series against the Golden Knights.
