Mattias Ekholm, who has been out since early April due to injury, is optimistic about his return for Game 4 against the Dallas Stars. He mentioned feeling great and believes his return is imminent. Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch stated that Ekholm is still day-to-day. Meanwhile, Roope Hintz could also be on the verge of returning, potentially influencing the game's outcome. The involvement of these players is crucial as the Oilers aim for a successful playoff run.
I'm feeling great, a lot better than I thought I would at this point. I feel really good, that's pretty much what I can say at this point... I'm happy with my body and happy with how I feel and really excited where the team is at and how they're playing.
We're still undecided, he's still day to day and we'll do what's best for our team and what's best for him.
