Oilers Loan Alec Regula to Bakersfield on Short Conditioning Stint

The club targets up to two weeks in Bakersfield to give the defenseman game reps that restore readiness.

Overview

  • Edmonton announced the move on X, confirming Regula’s loan to the AHL Condors for a conditioning assignment of up to two weeks.
  • The stint is meant to provide game action after sparse NHL minutes, offering a path back to the Oilers in sharper form.
  • Regula has frequently been a healthy scratch this season and last appeared for Edmonton on Jan. 20 after logging five games in January.
  • A 2018 third-round pick by Detroit, he has 51 NHL games across Chicago, Boston, and Edmonton after being claimed on waivers last season.
  • The decision aligns with efforts to stabilize a leaky blue line, with Paul Coffey back coaching the defense and the team ranking 25th in goals against per game.
