Edmonton Oilers forward Matt Savoie (undisclosed) has been ruled out of training camp. The 22-year-old is recovering from an offseason injury. According to TSN's Ryan Rishaug, Savoie might not be available until late October. This is a significant setback for Savoie, who had his rookie campaign in 2025-26. The former top-10 pick impressed with 18 goals and 37 points in 82 games. Once he's healthy, Savoie will compete for a top-six role. He would be an attractive fantasy option as a partner to either Connor McDavid or Leon Draisaitl.

Edmonton Oilers forward Mattias Janmark (undisclosed) will not participate in training camp. Janmark underwent season-ending surgery in March, finishing the campaign with only 43 appearances. He contributed one goal and seven assists. Unfortunately, he's still on the mend, and it seems like the Swedish veteran might also be unavailable at the start of the new campaign. While fantasy managers won't lose out on much without Janmark, he's been an effective bottom-six grinder in the NHL. During his 10-year career, Janmark has been part of three trips to the Stanley Cup Finals.

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Frederik Andersen (undisclosed) won't be available for training camp. The Danish veteran suffered an injury during offseason workouts. It's unfortunate news, especially since Andersen was also injured late last season and missed the end of the 2026 Stanley Cup Finals due to a knee injury. TSN's Ryan Rishaug reports that Andersen could be out until late October. Due to health issues, Andersen hasn't played more than 35 games in any of the past four seasons. Tristan Jarry and Devon Levi will share the crease in Edmonton until Andersen is ready for action.

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko (hip) is uncertain for the start of training camp, according to Thomas Drance of The Athletic. Demko appeared in only 20 games last season and was shut down in January for hip surgery. He is still recovering from the procedure ahead of the new campaign, casting doubt on his status for training camp. When healthy, Demko has proven he can be one of the best netminders in the NHL. Unfortunately, he has missed long stretches in each of the past two seasons and has made only 43 appearances. Even if he's good to go for the start of the 2026-27 season, the Canucks may want to limit Demko's workload to protect his health. That would boost Kevin Lankinen's fantasy value.
