Perry Nelson / USA TODAY Sports

Edmonton Oilers forward Matt Hendricks (undisclosed) will not play in Thursday's game against the San Jose Sharks.

Analysis:

After suffering an injury in Tuesday's win over the Kings, Hendricks was absent from Wednesday's practice and evidently wasn't feeling well enough to play a day later. Curtis Hamilton was recalled from AHL Oklahoma City and will replace Hendricks on the Oilers' fourth line against the Sharks. Hendricks' last chance to play this season will come Saturday in Vancouver.
