Edmonton Oilers defenseman Slater Koekkoek will be back in the lineup for Thursday's clash with the Maple Leafs. He played in the first seven games of the season, before being scratched for Tuesday's 6-4 loss to Winnipeg. Koekkoek will play on the third pairing with Tyson Barrie. A lot has been expected by the former first-round pick through the years, but he failed to deliver so far, and having picked up one point in seven games, his start to 2020-21 isn't anything special either, so fantasy managers should ignore him.
