Hyman's absence has left a void in Connor McDavid's wing, with no one able to replicate his gritty edge and space-creating abilities. The team has experimented with various line combinations, but none have stuck, causing disruption and confusion within the roster. As the season progresses, the Oilers must find a solution to fill Hyman's role, or risk further disruption to their chemistry and performance.
