The Oilers are in the thick of the first round against the Anaheim Ducks, with key players listed as healthy or game-time decisions for upcoming games. Connor McDavid is expected to suit up in Game 5 after an ankle issue, while Jason Dickinson and Tristan Jarry are also in or near lineup availability notes depending on the game plan. This signals a high-stakes, elimination-tilt scenario for the series as it stands. [Source: CBS Sports summary and team updates linked in recent coverage][1]
