May 27, 2025 | 6:49 PM

EDMONTON — Oilers winger Zach Hyman suffered an upper-body injury against the Stars in Game 4 of the NHL’s Western Conference final.

Hyman took a glancing hit from Dallas forward Mason Marchment in Tuesday’s first period and dropped his stick favouring his right arm before heading straight down the tunnel to Edmonton’s locker room.

The 32-year-old Hyman, who didn’t join his teammates to start the second period, led the post-season with 109 hits — 27 more than Florida Panthers centre Sam Bennett in the No. 2 spot — to go along with five goals and six assists entering play.

A staple on superstar centre Connor McDavid’s line, the Toronto native scored 54 times last season before adding 16 more in the playoffs as part of the Oilers’ run to the Stanley Cup final.

He compiled 27 goals and 17 assists for 44 points across 73 games in 2024-25.
