Edmonton Oilers
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins was spotted on the ice wearing a face shield on his helmet at Edmonton Oilers practice on Monday, per TSN's Ryan Rishaug.
Nugent-Hopkins was forced out of the Oilers' 4-2 victory over the Utah Mammoth on Saturday after taking a puck to the face in the second period. He did not return.
The former first-overall pick has four goals and 11 points in nine games with the Oilers this season. He has missed time this season with a lower-body injury, and became the Oilers franchise leader in games played (1,038) when they played the New Jersey Devils on Nov. 3.
Defenceman Jake Walman appears to be set to be a healthy scratch when the Oilers take on the New York Rangers on Monday, based on what Rishaug saw in Monday morning's practice session. He has been a scratch in five of the past seven games.
Oilers head coach Mike Babcock told reporters after the practice session that Devon Levi will get the start in net for the team's game against the Rangers.
