Known as a relentless forechecker, Hyman was on track to break the NHL record for most hits in a single postseason. After being credited with two hits before exiting Tuesday’s game, Hyman was up to 111 – just 15 shy of then-Tampa Bay Lightning winger Blake Coleman’s mark of 126 in 2020.

Hyman underwent surgery after a collision with Dallas Stars forward Mason Marchment, and Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch confirmed the news of his expected absence before Edmonton clinched a finals berth in Game 5.
