Ryan Martindale returned to the Stockton Thunder lineup on February 15th. He had first missed a game on January 21st, presumably as a healthy scratch, but was then listed as "injured - day-to-day" for three games from January 22nd to January 25th, and then "injured reserve" for eight games from there until February 11th. No clue what the injury was, but it was both serious enough for him to miss three weeks, and mild enough for the Oilers to ignore it completely when they profiled Martindale on January 26th. Martindale was -2 with a team-leading four shots on goal in his return.
