Pouliot (lower body) is not quite ready yet, but appears to be close to rejoining the lineup, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.

Analysis:

Pouliot was on the ice during practice Sunday, and while his status for Monday remains a bit unclear, Michaels suggests that he'd be surprised if the winger doesn't play in one of the next two contests. Expect an update on his status at some point prior to the game.
