Viktor Arvidsson Sustains Lower Body Injury, Expected to Miss Time

Viktor Arvidsson, a 31-year-old forward, sustained a lower body injury late in Saturday's 3-2 victory over the Canadiens and is expected to miss some time. This latest setback adds to a career frequently impacted by injuries. When healthy, Arvidsson has proven to be a significant contributor, as evidenced by his six goals and 15 points in 18 games last season. He signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the Oilers as an unrestricted free agent this past summer, with expectations to play alongside Connor McDavid or Leon Draisaitl. His history includes a herniated disc surgery, which had previously sidelined him for 3-5 months.
