Poised to play Saturday Dach (undisclosed) will likely be in the lineup against the Mammoth on Saturday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

Impact In order for Dach to suit up Saturday, he'll need to be activated off injured reserve, which will clear the way for him to return to the lineup. In his three games prior to getting hurt, Dach failed to register a point while producing five shots, eight hits and three blocks. With Dach back in the lineup, Josh Samanski could be headed to the press box as a healthy scratch.

On injured reserve Dach (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

Impact Dach's placement might be retroactive to when he last played in Edmonton's 3-1 win over Seattle on Saturday. He has no points, two PIM, eight hits and three blocks in three outings this season. His injury coincides with the Oilers' acquisition of Filip Hallander, who might draw into the lineup for Edmonton against Anaheim on Wednesday. If Hallander isn't available so soon after being traded, then Mathieu Joseph might play instead due to the spot in the lineup vacated by Dach.

Inks two-year contract Dach signed a two-year, $2.4 million contract with Edmonton on Sunday.

Impact Dach compiled five goals, 13 points, 58 shots on net, 219 hits and 52 PIM across 61 regular-season appearances between Edmonton and Chicago in 2025-26. As a member of the Oilers in the 2026-27 campaign, he should occupy a bottom-six role and could see time on the second power-play unit.

Present at Tuesday's morning skate Dach (illness) was on the ice for Tuesday's morning skate, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports, which indicates he will be an option for Game 5 against the Ducks.

Impact Dach missed Game 4 due to his illness. Should he draw into the lineup Tuesday, Josh Samanski or Curtis Lazar will likely serve as a healthy scratch. Dach doled out 13 hits over the first two matchups of this series, but he registered only two in Game 3.

Under the weather Dach isn't in the lineup for Game 4 in Anaheim on Sunday due to an illness, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Dach is being replaced in the lineup by Jason Dickinson, who missed the previous two games in this series because of an undisclosed injury. Dach has recorded 15 hits while averaging 8:53 of ice time so far in the 2026 postseason. Game 5 is set for Tuesday in Edmonton.

Two points Thursday Dach recorded a goal, an assist, five PIM, four hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Canucks.

Impact Dach missed 12 games between March 12 and April 4 due to an undisclosed injury, but he appeared in the Oilers' last five regular-season contests, tallying two goals and one assist. As good as the Oilers have been on offense all season long, Dach shouldn't be a reliable fantasy alternative as long as he continues to play in a bottom-six role. He recorded just four points (two goals, two assists) in eight appearances with Edmonton in the 2025-26 regular season after being acquired from the Blackhawks before the trade deadline.

Gets goal in overtime loss Dach scored a goal on three shots and added five hits in Tuesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Mammoth.

Impact Dach was activated from long-term injured reserve Saturday but didn't play versus the Golden Knights. He checked in on the third line Tuesday and scored at 2:09 of the third period to give the Oilers a 5-4 lead. This was his first goal and second point in four appearances for the Oilers. The 23-year-old has 11 points, 55 shots on net, 200 hits, 47 PIM and a minus-16 rating over 57 appearances between Edmonton and Chicago this season. He'll likely close out the regular season in a bottom-six role, and it's not yet clear if Dach will retain his place in the lineup for the playoffs.
