What happened: The Edmonton Oilers have returned Rudolfs Berzkalns, Caden Harvey, David Lewandowski, and Andrew Robinson to their respective junior clubs. The team also released Seth Griffith from his professional tryout agreement.
Why it matters: The transactions reduce Edmonton's training camp numbers as the club prepares for the upcoming regular season. Griffith's release ends his bid for a depth role, while the junior-assigned prospects will continue their development elsewhere.
By the numbers: The Oilers have posted a 9-5 record this preseason, riding a three-game winning streak while scoring 3.3 goals per contest.
What to watch: Edmonton will make further roster cuts as opening night approaches.
