Impact Stastney was scratched for the Oilers' first four games of the season before getting dealt to the Penguins. He's now in a top-four role with his new team, though the 26-year-old has middling scoring potential even while playing in a prominent spot in the lineup. Stastney produced 10 points over 66 regular-season outings between Edmonton and Nashville in 2025-26.
