The Oilers announced this morning that Sam Gagner has suffered a high ankle sprain after crashing awkwardly into the end boards on Saturday night. If you haven't seen the video you can find it here, skip ahead to the 1:10 mark. For now Gagner is listed as week to week. At this point it's probably too early to say for sure that he won't be ready for the season opener but if he isn't this opens the door for both Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Anton Lander to make the team out of camp.
