The Oilers placed Dylan Holloway and Mattias Janmark on long-term injured reserve, Edmonton announced Wednesday.
Holloway left Monday's win over the New York Islanders in the second period and didn't return. The 22-year-old only has one point - a goal he scored in Saturday's victory over the Seattle Kraken - in 14 games this season.
The Oilers drafted Holloway 14th overall in 2020. He debuted with Edmonton in 2022-23, collecting three goals and six assists over 51 NHL contests while adding seven tallies and three helpers in 12 games with the AHL's Bakersfield Condors.
Players on LTIR must miss at a minimum of 10 games and 24 days, so Holloway will be able to play again on Dec. 10 against the New Jersey Devils.
Janmark hasn't suited up since Oct. 26, sitting out seven contests since then. His move to LTIR is retroactive to that date, so he has to miss at least the next three games and would be eligible to play again on Nov. 22 against the Carolina Hurricanes.
The veteran center, who'll turn 31 on Dec. 8, has been held off the scoresheet entirely in seven tilts this season.
Edmonton greatly underachieved to start the campaign but has been gaining some momentum of late. The team has won two games in a row, including Monday's matchup with the Islanders in new head coach Kris Knoblauch's debut behind the Oilers bench. They fired Jay Woodcroft after the win over Seattle on Saturday.
The Oilers recalled forwards Adam Erne and Raphael Lavoie along with defenseman Philip Broberg from the Condors in corresponding moves to the LTIR designations Wednesday.
Edmonton sits second last in the Pacific Division at 4-9-1.
