Oilers' Olivier Rodrigue: Poised to feature Monday
Rodrigue is set to defend the cage versus the Kraken on Monday, Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network reports.
While Rodrigue will get the starting nod for the first preseason contest, it's unlikely he will make the 23-man roster over the likes of Stuart Skinner, who figures to serve as the backup to Jack Campbell. Without a clear path to regular appearances, Rodrigue shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value this season.

With Mike Smith (thumb) cleared to play, Rodrigue's services were no longer needed at the NHL level. Barring another injury for Smith or Mikko Koskinen, the 21-year-old Rodrigue should be expected to play the rest of his games in the minors this year.

Oilers' Olivier Rodrigue: Released from camp
Rodrigue has been released from Edmonton's training camp roster, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.
The Oilers wanted Rodrigue to attend training camp because the team's development camp and fall rookie tournament were both cancelled due to COVID-19, but he was never expected to still be with the club for its qualifying round matchup with the Blackhawks. The 2018 second-round pick posted a 31-7-1 record while registering a 2.32 GAA and .918 save percentage in 39 appearances with his QMJHL team this year.

Oilers' Olivier Rodrigue: Joining training camp
Rodrigue will take part in the Oilers' return to play training camp, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.
Rodrigue won't be getting into any playoff games, barring a real bad run of injuries, but the opportunity to practice with NHL players will no doubt help his long-term development. The 19-year-old went 31-7-1 with a .918 save percentage and 2.32 GAA in 39 appearances for QMJHL Moncton this year.

Oilers' Olivier Rodrigue: Busy in loss to Flames prospects
Rodrigue stopped 40 of 42 shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Flames' prospects.
The Oilers' rookies didn't help their 19-year-old goalie much, as only Evan Bouchard was able to get the puck behind Flames goalie Dustin Wolf. Rodrigue's strong play kept the Oilers in striking distance for a majority of the contest. Expect Rodrigue to spend another year with QMJHL Drummondville, where he posted a 2.80 GAA and an .895 save percentage over 142 games in the last three seasons. Rodrigue is likely three-plus years away from having an impact at the NHL level.

Oilers' Olivier Rodrigue: Secures entry-level deal

Rodrigue -- who was selected by the club with the 62nd overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft -- went 35-9-1 with a .902 save percentage in 48 appearances with QMJHL Drummondville this season. The 18-year-old netminder figures to spend at least another year in juniors before getting a shot with AHL Bakersfield, though the organization's lack of goalie depth could force it to fast-track the youngster's development.
