Date News Advice
Oct. 25, 2024 Yamamoto was placed on waivers by Utah on Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Yamamoto appeared in Utah's last three games, recording two hits and a shot on goal while averaging 10:40 of ice time. If he clears waivers, he'll head to the AHL. None
Oct. 6, 2024 Yamamoto signed a one-year, two-way contract with Utah on Sunday. - Yamamoto turned his professional tryout into a one-year deal ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. He produced eight goals and eight assists in 59 games with Seattle during the 2023-24 regular season. Yamamoto will occupy a depth role with Utah HC and could see playing time in the bottom six. None
Oct. 1, 2024 Yamamoto scored twice on three shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 3-1 preseason win over the Sharks. - Yamamoto played alongside Clayton Keller and Barrett Hayton in this contest, and that trio proved frutiful. The pair of goals were Yamamoto's first two in the preseason. The 26-year-old winger is in Utah's camp on a tryout, and even if he secures a full contract, it seems unlikely for him to have much of a chance at regularly playing on the top line. The spot he filled Tuesday typically belongs to Nick Schmaltz, who didn't dress for this contest. None
Sept. 11, 2024 Yamamoto agreed to terms on a professional tryout agreement with Utah HC on Wednesday. - Yamamoto saw action in 59 games for the Kraken last year in which he notched eight goals and eight assists, including six power-play points. Considering his steady decline in production since 2021-22 when he tallied 41 points in 81 games, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see the 25-year-old winger have to go the PTO route in order to find a landing spot for the upcoming season. If he makes the team, Yamamoto figures to take on a bottom-six role but could move up the lineup when injuries inevitably pop up. None
June 30, 2024 Seattle didn't issue a qualifying offer to Yamamoto on Sunday, per PuckPedia, making the 25-year-old forward an unrestricted free agent. - Yamamoto will be eligible to test the market when it opens Monday. He produced eight goals, eight assists and 61 shots on net over 59 games during the 2023-24 campaign. None
April 14, 2024 Yamamoto scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Stars. - Yamamoto had been scratched for the previous eight games, but with the Kraken sending down some key AHL players that were getting a taste of the NHL, he was back in the lineup. He broke up Jake Oettinger's shutout bid with 5:49 left in the third period. Yamamoto has underwhelmed with the Kraken, posting eight goals, 16 points, 59 shots on net and a minus-6 rating over 57 appearances. None
March 14, 2024 Yamamoto notched a power-play assist in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Capitals. - Yamamoto has an assist in each of the last two games after spending two contests as a healthy scratch. The 25-year-old winger is up to 15 points (six on the power play), 52 shots on net, 24 hits and a minus-5 rating through 52 contests overall. While he's showing a little more offense recently, Yamamoto's fourth-line role and lack of a guaranteed place in the lineup make him a high-risk, low-reward option in fantasy. None
March 13, 2024 Yamamoto notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Golden Knights. - Yamamoto helped out on Brandon Tanev's third-period tally. The 25-year-old Yamamoto had been scratched in the previous two games, but he drew back in with Jaden Schwartz (upper body) sidelined. Yamamoto is up to 14 points, 51 shots on net, 23 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 51 outings. He has little fantasy appeal with his poor offense and fourth-line role, though he often sees power-play time when in the lineup. None
Feb. 29, 2024 Yamamoto notched a power-play assist in Thursday's 2-0 win over the Penguins. - Yamamoto was a regular in the lineup early in the year, but this was just his ninth appearance in the last 20 games. He'd gone without a point in the previous eight contests in that span before snapping the slump when he set up an Alexander Wennberg tally in the third period. Yamamoto has 13 points, 47 shots on net and a minus-5 rating over 48 outings this season. There's room for him in the lineup while Andre Burakovsky (undisclosed) is out, but Yamamoto has had to compete with Tye Kartye for a fourth-line spot when the Kraken are fully healthy. None
Feb. 15, 2024 Yamamoto has been scratched for nine of the Kraken's 17 games since the start of January. - Yamamoto's role was already limited to a bottom-six assignment. Now, with the Kraken fully healthy, the 25-year-old is having a tough time drawing in even though he's occasionally served as a center this season. Yamamoto's best path to playing time would be to bump Tye Kartye or Brandon Tanev out of the lineup. Through 45 appearances, Yamamoto has 12 points, 46 shots on net, 21 hits and a minus-5 rating. None
Jan. 15, 2024 Yamamoto went scoreless in Monday's 3-0 road loss against the Penguins. - While Yamamoto was blanked, like the rest of his teammates, he did contribute with two blocked shots. He also had a minor penalty with a minus-1 rating while splitting his two faceoff chances at the dot. Yamamoto has managed just one assist with an even rating in the past four games since his most recent goal in Calgary on Dec. 27. None
Jan. 5, 2024 Yamamoto recorded an assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Senators. - Yamamoto set up an Andre Burakovsky tally in the second period, which stretched the Kraken's lead to 3-0. The 25-year-old Yamamoto has played much of the season on the fourth line, and with the Kraken nearing full health up front, his chances to move up are low. He's produced a decent 12 points with 41 shots on net and a minus-3 rating over 39 appearances, but he could be a candidate to be scratched once Jaden Schwartz (lower body) returns. None
Dec. 27, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Flames. - Yamamoto tallied at 2:24 of the first period after taking a stretch pass from Vince Dunn. This was Yamamoto's fourth goal in December, giving him seven tallies on the season. The 25-year-old winger is up to 11 points, 40 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 36 appearances. He's likely to remain in a bottom-six role, as Tomas Tatar has fit in well on the Kraken's top line. None
Dec. 14, 2023 Yamamoto scored a pair of goals on four shots in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Blackhawks. - Yamamoto struck twice in the first period, setting the Kraken on the right path quickly. The 25-year-old has four points over his last two contests, following an 11-game point drought. Yamamoto is up to six tallies, four assists, 29 shots on net and a minus-6 rating through 31 appearances this season. He continues to hold down a fourth-line role, and it's unlikely he gets out of the bottom six barring a dramatic improvement on offense. None
Dec. 13, 2023 Yamamoto tallied a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Panthers. - Yamamoto opened the scoring early in the second period, gathering a stretch pass from Will Borgen before beating Sergei Bobrovsky on a breakaway, before adding an assist on Pierre-Edouard Bellemare's tally in the third. The two-point effort snaps an 11-game scoring drought for Yamamoto. The 25-year-old winger now has four goals and eight points through 30 games this season. Yamamoto won't offer consistent scoring upside in a bottom-six role, though he has averaged 2:40 minutes on the power play. None
Nov. 16, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal and an assist on one shot in the Kraken's 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders on Thursday. - Yamamoto scored the game-tying goal on the power play, beating Semyon Varlamov with a backhand in front. The former Oiler has picked up his second multi-point game of the season as he snaps a seven-game point drought in the process. On the season, Yamamoto has three goals and six points in 18 games. The American forward should continue to operate on the fourth line and top power-play unit for the time being. None
Oct. 30, 2023 Yamamoto collected a goal and an assist in Seattle's 4-3 overtime win over Tampa Bay on Monday. - It was Yamamoto's first multi-point game of the campaign and brought him up to two goals and two assists through 10 appearances. The 25-year-old entered Monday's outing averaging just 11:15 of ice time this year and logged 11:36 versus the Lightning. On the plus side, Yamamoto has a regular role on the second power-play unit, which has led to him contributing two points with the man advantage in 2023-24. That will help him to make an occasional impact offensively throughout the campaign, but Yamamoto will probably need to secure a top-six role before he'll have a chance to be a regular contributor. None
Oct. 19, 2023 Yamamoto registered a power-play assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Hurricanes. - Yamamoto has a goal and an assist over the last two games after coming up empty in his first three contests with the Kraken. The 25-year-old winger set up Jaden Schwartz's first-period tally. Yamamoto has added six shots on net, three hits and a minus-3 rating through five appearances. His fourth-line role isn't likely to lead to much offense, but he's maintained a spot on the second power-play unit. None
Oct. 17, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Avalanche. - Yamamoto roofed a shot at 15:09 of the first period to open the scoring, but that was all the Kraken could muster against Alexandar Georgiev. The goal was Yamamoto's first with Seattle since he signed in the offseason. He's added three shots on goal, two hits and a minus-3 rating over four contests while skating on the fourth line and second power-play unit. None
July 2, 2023 Yamamoto signed a one-year, $1.5 million contract with Seattle on Sunday. - Yamamoto slipped to 10 goals and 25 points in 58 appearances with the Oilers last season after scoring 20 goals and 41 points over 81 contests during the 2021-22 campaign. He was bought out by the Red Wings in June following a trade with Edmonton. Yamamoto may occupy a fourth-line spot with the Kraken going into 2023-24. None
June 30, 2023 Yamamoto was placed on unconditional waivers by the Red Wings on Friday for the purposes of buying out his contract, Chris Johnston of TSN reports. - Yamamoto was acquired from the Oilers with Klim Kostin on Thursday. Yamamoto and the Red Wings were unable to come to terms on a new contract, so Detroit decided to part ways with the winger. Yamamoto would have had a $3.1 million salary cap hit had he remained with the Red Wings, but will now cost Detroit $433,334 as a cap hit this season and $533,334 in 2024-25. Yamamoto scored 10 times and added 15 assists in 58 games in 2022-23. None
June 29, 2023 Yamamoto and Klim Kostin were traded to the Red Wings from the Oilers on Thursday in exchange for future considerations. - Yamamoto carries a $3.1 million cap hit that almost certainly led to Edmonton's decision to part ways with him despite not getting anything in return from Detroit. With his new club, the winger should be in contention for a spot in the middle-six. Selected with the 22nd overall pick in the 2017 NHL Draft, Yamamoto has seemingly failed to live up to expectations considering he has reached the 30-point threshold just once in his four-year NHL career. None
May 10, 2023 Yamamoto notched an assist, two hits and 10 PIM in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4. - Yamamoto has gotten on the scoresheet in the Oilers' last three wins, racking up a goal and three assists over five games in that span. That accounts for all of the winger's offense through 10 playoff contests, and he's added 19 hits, 11 shots on net, 14 PIM and a minus-3 rating. The 24-year-old will likely continue to be a middle-six option for the Oilers, especially if they opt for 12-forward lineups as they did Wednesday. None
May 6, 2023 Yamamoto notched an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Golden Knights. - Yamamoto set up Leon Draisaitl's second goal of the contest at 16:17 of the first period. The Oilers have opted for 11-forward lineups recently, with Yamamoto cycling in as the team rotates centers, though he's been mostly in a bottom-six assignment. The 24-year-old has three points, nine shots on net, 15 hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-2 rating through eight appearances. None
April 29, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Kings. - Yamamoto set up Klim Kostin's go-ahead goal in the second period, then put the Oilers ahead for good late in the third. The pair of points accounted for Yamamoto's only scoring in the six-game series. He added eight shots on net, 13 hits and a minus-1 rating while moving around the lineup. None
April 14, 2023 Yamamoto notched an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Sharks. - Yamamoto snapped a five-game point drought with his helper. The 24-year-old has had an uneven season, posting 10 goals and 15 assists over 58 contests, with injuries costing him significant chunks of the campaign. He should continue to be a part of the supporting cast on offense entering the postseason. None
March 28, 2023 Yamamoto registered an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Golden Knights. - Yamamoto has an assist in three straight games and six points over his last six outings. The 24-year-old winger helped out on Evander Kane's 300th career goal. Yamamoto is up to 10 goals, 13 assists, 84 shots, 70 hits and a plus-10 rating through 51 appearances this season. None
March 27, 2023 Yamamoto posted a shorthanded assist in Monday's 5-4 win over the Coyotes. - Yamamoto set up Darnell Nurse on the go-ahead goal at 18:11 of the first period. With five points over his last five outings, Yamamoto is enjoying one of his steadiest stretches of the season. The 24-year-old winger is up to 10 goals, 22 points (two shorthanded), 82 shots on net, 69 hits and a plus-9 rating through 50 appearances. None
March 20, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal on three shots, added an assist, went plus-3 and logged two hits in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks. - Yamamoto reached the 10-goal mark with his second-period tally. He also helped out on Darnell Nurse's goal with 15 seconds left in overtime, which got Yamamoto to the 20-point mark this season. The 24-year-old has earned seven of his points through 10 outings in March. None
March 18, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Kraken. - Yamamoto snapped his six-game point drought with the first-period tally. Prior to the slump, he had four goals and an assist over five contests. The 24-year-old winger is still struggling to perform consistently, with 18 points, 75 shots, 66 hits and a plus-5 rating through 46 appearances this season. None
March 4, 2023 Yamamoto scored two goals and added an assist in Friday's 6-3 win over the Jets. - Both goals came 40 seconds apart in the second period, giving the Oilers a 4-0 lead and helping to chase Connor Hellebuyck from the game. Yamamoto is back on a line with Leon Draisaitl and has four goals and five points over the last five games, but his track record suggests his hold on a top-six role will be tenuous. Yamamoto could prove to be a short-term fantasy asset, but don't get too attached. None
March 1, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs. - Yamamoto's second-period tally made it 4-1 for the Oilers. He's scored twice over seven contests since returning from an undisclosed injury, and his 13:25 of ice time Wednesday was his lowest total in that span. The 24-year-old winger has six goals, 14 points, 58 shots on net, 58 hits and a plus-4 rating through 38 appearances. If the Oilers want to change things up before Friday's trade deadline, Yamamoto could be a player on the move if they can find a team to take on his $3.1 million cap hit. None
Feb. 24, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal on four shots, added three hits and logged two PIM in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Penguins. - Yamamoto's second-period tally ended up being the game-winner. It was his first point in four contests since he returned from an undisclosed injury that required a stint on long-term injured reserve. The winger is up to five goals, 13 points, 49 shots on net, 51 hits and a plus-6 rating through 35 appearances this season. None
Feb. 16, 2023 Yamamoto (undisclosed) will make his return Friday versus the Rangers, Oilers coach Jay Woodcroft told Jason Gregor of OilersNation.com. - Yamamoto will draw into the lineup for the first time since Jan. 11. He has four goals and 12 points in 31 contests this season. Yamamoto's return might push Jesse Puljujarvi out of the lineup. None
Jan. 17, 2023 Yamamoto (undisclosed) was placed on long-term injured reserve Tuesday. - Yamamoto's designation for LTIR is expected to clear the way for Evander Kane (wrist) to be activated ahead of Tuesday's clash with Seattle. Prior to getting hurt, the Yamamoto was finding his offensive game with five points in his last eight contests. None
Jan. 16, 2023 Yamamoto (undisclosed) is still being evaluated, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports. - Yamamoto, who didn't practice Monday, has missed the past two games. It wouldn't be a surprise if he sat out Tuesday's contest versus Seattle, as well. Yamamoto has 12 points, 40 shots on goal and 43 hits in 31 games this season. None
Jan. 14, 2023 Yamamoto (undisclosed) will not play Saturday versus the Golden Knights, Jack Michaels of the Oilers Radio Network reports. - Yamamoto's absence will stretch to a second game, and there's no clear timeline available for his return. The Oilers are expected to again utilize seven defensemen, with Vincent Desharnais staying in the lineup while Ryan McLeod and Derek Ryan figure to get more playing time. The Oilers' next game is Tuesday versus the Kraken. None
Jan. 13, 2023 Yamamoto (undisclosed) will not play Friday against the Sharks, Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network reports. - Yamamoto was a late scratch and it's unclear how long he's expected to be out. The 24-year-old has 12 points while averaging 16:42 of ice time through 31 games. The Oilers will dress seven blueliners Friday. None
Jan. 11, 2023 Yamamoto posted an assist in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Ducks. - Yamamoto intercepted the puck and passed to Connor McDavid, who put up another highlight-reel tally. Since the holiday break, Yamamoto has been a bit more consistent on offense with two goals, three assists and 11 shots on net over eight contests. The winger is up to 12 points, 40 shots, 43 hits and a plus-7 rating through 31 appearances this season. He seems to be holding his own on the top line, though his fantasy value is likely limited to deeper formats. None
Jan. 9, 2023 Yamamoto scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Kings. - Yamamoto got the Oilers on the board at 17:02 of the first period. The winger has tallied twice over his last three games, but he has just four goals to go with four assists in 17 outings since the start of December. The 24-year-old is up to 11 points, 39 shots on net, 43 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 30 contests despite often seeing top-six usage. None
Jan. 5, 2023 Yamamoto scored a shorthanded goal in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Islanders. - Yamamoto extended Edmonton's lead to 2-0 in the first period, beating a defender with a toe drag before firing a shot past Ilya Sorokin. It's just the third goal of the season for Yamamoto and his first since Dec. 15. The 24-year-old winger has struggled in an injury-plagued season, but his production could increase if he continues to play on the Oilers' top line alongside Connor McDavid. None
Dec. 30, 2022 Yamamoto notched an assist in Friday's 7-2 win over the Kraken. - Yamamoto made a small contribution on offense with a secondary helper on Darnell Nurse's first-period tally. This was Yamamoto's second straight game with an assist, but it's also just the second time all season he's gotten on the scoresheet in consecutive contests. The struggling winger has two tallies, seven helpers, 31 shots on net, 42 hits and a plus-6 rating through 25 outings. He'll continue to log middle-six minutes, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect a huge uptick in offense any time soon. None
Dec. 27, 2022 Yamamoto was credited with an assist during a 2-1 win over the host Flames on Tuesday. - Yamamoto, who earned his first point in five games, drew the lone assist on Tyson Barrie's 100th career goal, developing from a shot from the point. The 24-year-old right winger previously earned two assists against the Coyotes on Dec. 7, a span of nine games. Yamamoto, who opened Tuesday on the second line, added one shot, one hit, one block and a plus-1 rating in 15:33 of ice time. None
Dec. 15, 2022 Yamamoto scored a goal on two shots and added four PIM in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Oilers. - Yamamoto's goal put the Oilers up 3-1 in the third period, but the lead didn't last. Both of his goals this season have come in the last week, and he has four points in six outings since returning from an upper-body injury that cost him 11 games. The winger has two goals, five helpers, 24 shots on net, 34 hits, eight PIM and a plus-6 rating through 19 appearances while frequently seeing middle-six minutes. None
Dec. 9, 2022 Yamamoto found the back of the net in a 5-2 victory over the Wild on Friday. - Yamamoto's goal at 12:54 of the second period was the game-winner. It was also his first marker and sixth point in 16 contests this season. Perhaps just as important for Yamamoto as the goal itself is the fact that he fired four shots Friday after recording just 17 in his first 15 contests. The 24-year-old will need to start tallying shots like he did Friday if he wants to pick up his goal scoring pace. None
Dec. 7, 2022 Yamamoto logged a pair of assists in Wednesday's 8-2 victory over Arizona. - Yamamoto assisted on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' tally in the second period before setting up Brett Kulak later in the frame. It's the first multi-point game of the season for the 24-year-old winger, who returned Monday from an 11-game absence. Yamamoto has been held without a goal through 15 games this year while logging five assists. None
Dec. 5, 2022 Yamamoto (upper body) will return to the lineup Monday against Washington, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports. - Yamamoto is finally ready to play after being sidelined since Nov. 8. He has accounted for three assists, 15 shots on goal and 19 hits in 13 appearances this season. None
Nov. 27, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Sunday. - Yamamoto has already missed the last seven games and there's still not a clear timetable for his return. Prior to his injury, the 24-year-old had just three assists in 13 games. None
Nov. 21, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) didn't travel with the Oilers for their three-game road trip, Mark Spector of Sportsnet.ca reports Monday. - Considering Yamamoto has already missed four straight contests due to his undisclosed injury, he could be designated for injured reserve at any point here in order to free up a roster spot. Prior to getting hurt, the 24-year-old winger was mired in a season-long goal drought, having contributed just three helpers and 15 shots over those 13 appearances. None
Nov. 19, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) won't play Saturday versus Vegas. - Although Yamamoto will miss a fourth straight game Saturday, he's considered day-to-day with his undisclosed injury, suggesting he could be ready to return sooner rather than later. Check back for another update on his status ahead of Monday's matchup with New Jersey. None
Nov. 10, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) returned to Edmonton to be evaluated for an injury suffered Tuesday versus the Lightning, Mark Spector of Sportsnet.ca reports. - Yamamoto won't play Saturday versus the Panthers, which suggests an update on his status may not be available until the Oilers finish their road trip. The winger took a knock Tuesday versus the Lightning and sat out Thursday's game against the Hurricanes. The details of Yamamoto's injury are unknown for now, but it's a big loss considering Evander Kane (wrist) was also injured versus Tampa Bay. None
Nov. 1, 2022 Yamamoto produced an assist in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Predators. - Yamamoto helped out on an Evander Kane goal at 7:25 of the first period, which put the Oilers ahead 2-1. The 24-year-old Yamamoto has just three assists so far this season, but two of them have come in the last three games. The winger has added 11 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-4 rating while holding onto a top-six role as a strong checking presence. None
Oct. 28, 2022 Yamamoto registered an assist in Thursday's 6-5 win over the Blackhawks. - Yamamoto helped out on Leon Draisaitl's game-winning goal with just 38 seconds left in the third period. The assist ended Yamamoto's five-game point drought. The 24-year-old has struggled despite a top-six role to begin the year, as he's picked up just two helpers to go with nine shots on net, 11 hits and a plus-3 rating in seven appearances. If his struggles continue, Jesse Puljujarvi could displace him on the second line. None
Oct. 15, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) will make his season debut Saturday versus the Flames. - Yamamoto is expected to skate on the second line with Leon Draisaitl and Evander Kane against Calgary. The 24-year-old winger racked up 20 goals and 41 points through 81 games last campaign. None

Oct. 7, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) will not suit up for Friday's preseason tilt with Seattle, per the NHL's media site. - It's unclear exactly what Yamamoto is dealing with and there's currently no timeline for when he'll be ready to return. Friday is the Oilers' final preseason game before they begin the regular season Oct. 12. The 24-year-old set career highs in goals (20), points (41) and shots (114) last season. None
Oct. 6, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) missed Thursday's practice, according to Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic. - Oilers coach Jay Woodcroft described Yamamoto as banged up. He had 20 goals and 41 points in 81 games in 2021-22. None
Aug. 3, 2022 Yamamoto (concussion) signed a two-year, $6.2 million contract with the Oilers on Wednesday. - Yamamoto finished last season with a career-high 41 points (20 goals, 21 assists) in 81 contests. The 23-year-old figures to compete with Jesse Puljujarvi for the last spot in the Oilers' top six, though Yamamoto can be considered to have the inside edge there with a higher scoring upside. He suffered a concussion in the Western Conference Finals but is expected to be ready for training camp. None
June 8, 2022 Yamamoto missed the last two games of Edmonton's Western Conference Finals loss to the Avalanche due to a concussion, Jason Gregor of OilersNation.com reports. - Yamamoto will almost certainly make a full recovery in time for training camp in September.

June 6, 2022 Yamamoto (upper body) will miss out versus Colorado on Monday, Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network reports. - Yamamoto will miss his second straight game due to his upper-body injury. With the Spokane native sidelined, Edmonton has shifted Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to the wing while elevating Warren Foegele to a top-six role. For his part, Yamamoto has generated seven points in 14 postseason contests and should be a decent value option if cleared to return. None
June 4, 2022 Yamamoto (upper body) is unlikely to play in Game 3 on Saturday against the Avalanche, per Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic. - Yamamoto wasn't on the ice for the Oilers' morning skate after suffering an upper-body injury in Game 2. The 23-year-old winger has two goals and five assists in 14 postseason contests. Devin Shore would likely slot into the lineup in Yamamoto's absence with Zack Kassian moving into a top-six role. None
June 2, 2022 Yamamoto (upper body) won't finish Thursday's Game 2 versus the Avalanche, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Yamamoto didn't finish the second period, and the injury is enough to keep him out of the rest of the game. The 23-year-old should be considered day-to-day until the Oilers provide more information on his status. If he can't play Saturday in Game 3, Devin Shore or Derick Brassard would be most likely to enter the lineup unless the Oilers switch to a seven-defensemen system. None

May 18, 2022 Yamamoto scored a goal, dished an assist and added three hits in Wednesday's 9-6 loss to the Flames in Game 1. - Yamamoto hadn't scored since Game 1 versus the Kings in the first round. With the Oilers running an 11-forward lineup in recent games, Yamamoto has generally played in a top-six role, though he only had 14:16 of ice time Wednesday despite the two-point effort. The winger is at five points, 11 shots on net, 23 hits and a minus-1 rating through eight playoff outings. None
May 3, 2022 Yamamoto scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist, logged two hits and added two PIM in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Kings in Game 1. - Yamamoto carried over his momentum from the regular season in a positive individual effort. Both of his points came on the power play, as the Oilers were able to control the special-teams battle despite the loss. The winger had just one point in eight playoff games across the last two postseasons, but it appears he's set for a larger role this time around. None
April 29, 2022 Yamamoto notched an assist in Friday's 3-2 shootout win over the Canucks. - Yamamoto set up Brett Kulak's third-period tally, which got the Oilers on the board. The 23-year-old Yamamoto ended the season positively with two goals and four helpers in his last five contests. He's enjoyed career-best production with 20 tallies, 21 assists, 114 shots on net, 114 hits and a minus-1 rating in 81 games overall.

April 1, 2022 Yamamoto notched a pair of assists, including one while shorthanded, and two hits in Friday's 6-5 overtime win over the Blues. - Yamamoto did his damage in the first period, setting up goals by Zach Hyman and Evander Kane. March brought renewed confidence for Yamamoto, who posted eight goals and six assists in 15 games last month. He kept things rolling to start April, and he's now at 35 points (five on the power play, two shorthanded), 98 shots on net, 89 hits and a minus-5 rating through 68 contests this season. None
March 28, 2022 Yamamoto recorded a power-play assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 6-1 win over the Coyotes. - Yamamoto set up Ryan McLeod's second-period marker. At even strength, Yamamoto was shuffled back to the second line with Leon Draisaitl and Zach Hyman after a run of games on Connor McDavid's wing. March has been a renaissance of sorts for Yamamoto, who has 13 points in his last 10 outings with just two goose eggs in that span. The 23-year-old winger has 33 points, 95 shots on net, 85 hits and a minus-4 rating through 66 appearances. None
March 24, 2022 Yamamoto scored a power-play goal on two shots and added an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Sharks. - Yamamoto tied the game at 4:34 of the second period. He also helped out on an Evander Kane empty-net goal in the third.

The 23-year-old has seven goals and five assists in his last eight appearances, putting him at 32 points, 94 shots, 83 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 64 outings overall. None
March 21, 2022 Yamamoto scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, went plus-2 and added six PIM in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Avalanche. - He was held off the scoresheet Saturday, but this was his fourth multi-point effort in his last five games. Yamamoto has thrived since joining Evander Kane and Connor McDavid on the Oilers' top line. Through 62 contests, Yamamoto has 16 goals, 13 helpers, 89 shots on net, 82 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-5 rating, though his recent success on the scoresheet makes him more attractive for fantasy managers. None
March 17, 2022 Yamamoto contributed a goal and an assist in a 6-1 win over the Sabres on Thursday. - Yamamoto has goals in four consecutive games now and assists in three straight as part of a beautiful stretch for the 23-year-old. The left winger has not found the groove he had back in 2019, but does have a career-high 15 goals this season to go along with 12 assists in 60 games. None
March 12, 2022 Yamamoto scored an empty-net goal on four shots, dished an assist, went plus-2 and added three hits in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Lightning. - Yamamoto set up Connor McDavid's first-period goal and added an insurance marker of his own in the third. In March, Yamamoto has three goals and an assist through six games. The winger is up to 23 points, 82 shots on net, 72 hits and a minus-7 rating in 58 outings overall. He's seen top-line minutes recently, and it appears to have sparked his offense a bit. None
March 9, 2022 Yamamoto scored a power-play goal on two shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Capitals. - Yamamoto tied the game at 1-1 in the second period. This was his second goal in his last five games, and it's important to mention he was moved onto the top power-play unit for this contest. The 23-year-old has had a middling year with 12 goals, 21 points, 78 shots on net, 69 hits, 30 PIM and a minus-9 rating through 57 contests. If he stays on the first power-play unit, he could be worth a look in most fantasy formats. None

Feb. 28, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) is not expected to participate in Tuesday's contest against Philadelphia, Jason Gregor of OilersNation.com reports. - Yamamoto missed Sunday's game against Carolina while dealing with an undisclosed injury. The 23-year-old has averaged 17:57 of ice time and generated two points over his last five appearances. None
Feb. 27, 2022 Yamamoto (undisclosed) won't play Sunday versus Carolina, Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network reports. - Yamamoto is evidently still feeling the effects of the shot he blocked in the third period of Saturday's win over the Panthers. With Yamamoto and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (upper body) both sidelined, the Oilers will roll with 11 forwards and seven defensemen against the Hurricanes. None
Feb. 19, 2022 Yamamoto scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Jets. - Yamamoto gave the Oilers a 2-0 lead at 7:46 of the second period.

Feb. 17, 2022 Yamamoto notched an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Ducks. - Yamamoto helped out on Zach Hyman's third-period tally. In his last two games, Yamamoto has a goal and an assist, and he could be in for a larger role after Jesse Puljujarvi (lower body) left Thursday's game.

Feb. 15, 2022 Yamamoto scored a goal and added three hits in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Kings. - Yamamoto scored at 15:14 of the third period, and the Oilers added a couple of empty-netters to make the lead stick. The 23-year-old winger had been limited to three assists in his last 11 games before his clutch goal Tuesday. Yamamoto is at nine tallies, 17 points, 60 shots on net, 60 hits and a minus-6 rating through 47 outings. Considering he's shooting 15 percent, fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to improve much on offense. None
Feb. 12, 2022 Yamamoto took five shots in a 3-1 win over the Islanders on Friday. - Yamamoto did not add to the final score in this one, but he put pressure on Ilya Sorokin. The left winger has not scored a goal since Jan. 15 against Ottawa, with three assists across the 10 matches since. None
Feb. 1, 2022 Yamamoto added an assist in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators on Monday. - Yamamoto helped Connor McDavid score his game-tying goal in the first period to bring the game to 1-1. The 23-year-old left winger has been much more productive over the last month and a half, with 10 points over his last 13 games. For context, Yamamoto had six points in 28 games prior this season. None
Jan. 29, 2022 Yamamoto notched an assist in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Canadiens. - Yamamoto helped out on Evander Kane's opening tally at 11:21 of the first period. The two wingers were the first two play on Connor McDavid's flanks since head coach Dave Tippett shuffled his lines. Yamamoto's done alright with a goal and three helpers in his last seven outings, but he probably can't be expected to perform as a true top-line winger. He's up to to 15 points, 49 shots on net, 47 hits and a minus-8 rating through 40 contests. None
Jan. 16, 2022 Yamamoto scored a goal on three shots and went minus-3 in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Senators. - Yamamoto didn't end up missing any time in the COVID-19 protocols thanks to the Oilers' thin schedule over the last week or so. The 23-year-old's offense has taken a step forward lately with three goals and four helpers in his last seven outings. Overall, Yamamoto has 13 points, 37 shots on net, 37 hits and a minus-8 rating in 35 contests. He played on the third line Saturday, but with the Oilers in a six-game losing skid, he could continue to be shuffled around as head coach Dave Tippett looks for the right forward combinations. None
Jan. 7, 2022 Yamamoto entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Friday. - Yamamoto entered the protocols after receiving a positive rapid test, so there's still a chance he'll be cleared to play Monday versus Ottawa once his PCR test results are in. If not, the Oilers may need to recall a skater to fill in against the Senators. None
Jan. 5, 2022 Yamamoto recorded an assist in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Maple Leafs. - Yamamoto set up Leon Draisaitl's first-period marker. With two goals and four assists in his last six games, Yamamoto has played reasonably well of late. He still isn't shooting much, notching just six shots on goal in that span. The winger has 12 points, 34 shots, 37 hits and a minus-5 rating through 34 contests. None
Dec. 29, 2021 Yamamoto recorded an assist and two hits in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Blues. - Yamamoto has posted assists in each of the last two games -- this marks the second time he's gotten on the scoresheet in back-to-back outings this year. The winger is up to eight points, 30 shots on net, 32 hits and a minus-5 rating in 30 contests overall. He remains in a second-line role, though he hasn't scored enough to justify that usage. None
Dec. 18, 2021 Yamamoto recorded a power-play assist, two shots on goal, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Kraken. - It was a case of mixed results for Yamamoto on Saturday, as he snapped a seven-game point drought but also had some struggles. Getting on the scoresheet is an accomplishment itself for the 23-year-old this season -- he has five goals and two assists in 29 games. He's added 30 shots, 30 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-4 rating, but he'll likely remain in a top-six role with the Oilers missing a handful of forwards to COVID-19 protocols and injuries. None
Dec. 1, 2021 Yamamoto scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Penguins. - Yamamoto redirected a Tyson Barrie shot in the third period for what was the game-winning goal. The 23-year-old Yamamoto continues to be sporadic on offense -- he's scored three times and added an assist in his last eight games. The winger is up to six points, 28 shots, 23 hits and a plus-1 rating through 21 appearances. Without more offense, he won't be a factor in fantasy. None
Nov. 20, 2021 Yamamoto scored a shorthanded goal in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks. - Yamamoto tallied at 15:16 of the first period, and his goal stood as the game-winner. It was his first career shorthanded goal and just his second point a man down. The Washington native has just four goals, one assist, 23 shots on net and 21 hits through 17 contests, though all five of his points have come in 10 games in November. None
Nov. 14, 2021 Yamamoto scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Sunday's 5-4 victory over the Blues. - After helping set up Ryan Nugent-Hopkins for his first goal of the season late in the second period, Yamamoto played hero in the third, snapping the puck into the back of the net behind Jordan Binnington with only 28 seconds left in regulation. Yamamoto has had a rough start to the season with only three goals and four points in 14 games, but Sunday's heroics -- not to mention a spot on Leon Draisaitl's line at even strength -- could be what the 23-year-old needs to get going. None
Nov. 3, 2021 Yamamoto scored a goal on his only shot and added three hits in Wednesday's 5-2 win over Nashville. - The 23-year-old found a loose puck in front and knocked it into an open net, giving the Oilers a 2-1 lead just 1:27 into the second period. Yamamoto really struggled to begin the season, going the first seven games without a point, but he's now lit the lamp in each of his last two. Fantasy managers should take note that those two tallies have come on just two shots, and Yamamoto has had had more than two shots in a game only once all season, so the goals might not yet come on a consistent basis.
