Hyman has been an integral part of the Oilers team that has reached the conference finals in three of the last four years. He has 11 points in this year's postseason and had 16 goals and six assists during the team’s run to the Stanley Cup Final last season. More importantly, Hyman led the team and the NHL in hits during the 2025 postseason.

Hyman, who leads the NHL playoffs with 111 hits, was hurt midway through the first period of a 4-1 win over the Stars in Game 4 of the Western Conference final series on Tuesday night.

The Edmonton Oilers are inching ever-closer to a Stanley Cup Final return, but they might have to do it without one key piece.
