Jujhar Khaira and Andreas Athanasiou are the latest Edmonton Oilers to join the team in phase two activities.
The pair join a long list of other Oilers on the ice that includes: Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Darnell Nurse, Zack Kassian, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Matt Benning, Ethan Bear, Patrick Russell, Alex Chiasson, Kris Russel, Tyler Benson and Stuart Skinner.
It’s great to see more and more players joining teammates on the ice in Edmonton as the league continues to get work through more details of the remaining return-to-play plan and CBA talks.
