Latest news
Nugent-Hopkins tallied two goals, including one on the power-play, placed two shots on net and served two PIM in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Islanders.
Nugent-Hopkins' Halloween afternoon was more treat than trick, as he recorded his first multi-goal game of the 2026-27 campaign. Both tallies came in the second period, with the second being on the power play. Overall, the 33-year-old center is up to three goals, seven points and 14 shots on net across five outings this season. Since missing the start of the year with a lower-body injury, he's recorded three multi-point games. Nugent-Hopkins is an excellent fantasy option in all point-based formats, given his hot start and placement on the Oilers' top power-play unit.

Nugent-Hopkins recorded two assists, including one on the power play, and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Flames.
Nugent-Hopkins set up Mattias Ekholm's second-period goal before earning a secondary assist on Kasperi Kapanen's power-play tally early in the third. Nugent-Hopkins continues to benefit from his involvement alongside Connor McDavid, particularly with the man advantage. Nugent-Hopkins' versatility and established role in Edmonton's high-octane offense give him a reliable fantasy floor. He's played just four games this season but already has five points (one goal, four helpers) and 12 shots on goal.

Nugent-Hopkins scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Thursday's 6-5 shootout win over the Hurricanes.
Nugent-Hopkins was sidelined for the first nine games of the regular season due to a lower-body injury. The 33-year-old returned Thursday to center the second line, but it was his inclusion on the first power-play unit that helped him in his debut -- that's where he earned both of his points. With the Oilers' top line humming, expect Nugent-Hopkins to be dependent on the power play as his main source of offense. The 33-year-old had 56 points, including 29 with the man advantage, during the 2025-26 regular season.

Nugent-Hopkins (lower body) will be in the lineup versus Carolina on Thursday, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.
Nugent-Hopkins will suit up for the first time this season after having previously been on the shelf for the Oilers' nine contests to open the year. In 72 regular-season appearances last year, the British Columbia native produced 20 goals and 36 assists, including 29 power-play points. He should have enough time to meet those numbers this year despite his absence.

Nugent-Hopkins (lower body) might be available for Thursday's game against Carolina, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.
Nugent-Hopkins is expected to miss Edmonton's next two games before he has a chance to return. He hasn't played yet this campaign, but he finished 2025-26 with 20 goals and 56 points in 72 regular-season appearances. There's a fair chance Nugent-Hopkins will serve as the third-line center once healthy, but he also might shift to the wing to play on one of the top-two lines.

Nugent-Hopkins (lower body) will be sidelined against Utah on Thursday, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.
Nugent-Hopkins has been skating with his teammates but will not be ready to get into the lineup Thursday. In 72 regular-season games last year, the 33-year-old center produced 20 goals and 36 assists, including 29 power-play points. Once given the all-clear, Nugent-Hopkins figures to slot into a top-six role while also seeing power-play minutes.
