• Tomkins stopped 27 of 28 shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Rangers.

  This was Tomkins' first game at the NHL level since the 2023-24 campaign. He was able to keep things rolling for the Oilers, who have won three straight games. The 32-year-old will continue to fill the backup role behind Tristan Jarry while Devon Levi (undisclosed) is out. Tomkins isn't likely to get a lot more work during this stint in the NHL -- the Oilers don't have another back-to-back for two weeks.

• Tomkins is set to start on the road against the Rangers on Sunday, per Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press.

  Tomkins is with the Oilers because Devon Levi (undisclosed) is on injured reserve. The 32-year-old Tomkins has posted a 3-2-1 record, 3.33 GAA and .892 save percentage in six career NHL regular-season outings. Edmonton is gearing up for the second half of a back-to-back set after Tristan Jarry earned an 18-save shutout victory over the Islanders on Saturday. Edmonton is now 10-2-2 this season and is coming off consecutive shutout wins after besting Calgary 4-0 on Wednesday.

• Tomkins was recalled from AHL Bakersfield on Friday.

  Tomkins will replace Devon Levi (undisclosed), who went on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Expect Tomkins to serve as Tristan Jarry's backup in the near term, beginning with Saturday's game versus the Maple Leafs.

• Tomkins was placed on waivers Sunday to be loaned to AHL Bakersfield.

  Tomkins went 20-13-7 with a 2.98 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 42 appearances with Edmonton's top minor-league affiliate in the 2025-26 regular season. If he clears waivers, he should see plenty of action for AHL Bakersfield again during the 2026-27 campaign.

• Tomkins posted a 30-save shutout in AHL Bakersfield's 2-0 win over Tucson on Saturday.
