Trent Frederic News: First goal of season a GWG

Frederic scored the game-winning goal in Tuesday's 2-0 victory over the Rangers.

The veteran center took advantage of a poor dump-in attempt by Urho Vaakanainen midway through the second period, getting sprung for a partial breakaway by Kasperi Kapanen and slipping the puck through Igor Shesterkin's five-hole. It was Frederic's first regular-season goal with the Oilers after being acquired from the Bruins last season at the trade deadline, and his first point in three games of the 2025-26 campaign.
