According to head coach Todd McLellan, Davidson likely won’t play with the team as they travel to Philadelphia to take on the Flyers. He also won’t play against Minnesota and for the duration of the road trip.
In the meantime, it looks like Dillon Simpson will get some playing time, and the Oilers will recall a defenseman from Bakersfield.
Not a Good Position
Edmonton can’t seem to catch a break. Not only is Darnell Nurse out long-term, but now, Fayne will be sidelined for a while. Edmonton is missing a significant defenseman on the left side.
