Right hand shot, 3rd round pick from 2018. Big guy at 6'4'', 211 lbs. Was once traded for Taylor Hall.
Since they claimed him I think they have to keep him with the big club, otherwise he will have to pass through waivers again. He's put up some points before in the AHL, but just one goal and no assists in 22 NHL games with Chicago.
I have a feeling he will be on waivers again within 2 weeks.

Is someone banged up?

Not just traded for former Oiler Taylor Hall, but prior to that was traded for former Oiler Brendan Perlini!
Decent AHL numbers, decent OHL numbers before that. Only 24 years old. Maybe we send down Dermott now? Dermott's only got in 10 games so far, going 0-0-0, -3 with 0 SOG and 2 PIMs. Not exactly lighting the world on fire.

A former teammate of Bouchard, eh? Well, I guess that confirms he's part of the core. They're always bringing in McDavid's old teammates and buddies and they once tried with Draisaitl. Now, I guess it's Bouch's turn to "phone a friend".
On a serious note though... if him and Bouch once played as a pair, which one played their offside?
What happened to all of my messages? lol (I guess it's been awhile) BlueSky: StefBarnes

They only played one season together.. Regula's 1st on London.. Bouchards last.. I think Bouchard had little if any input on waiver claim.. I'll be interested to hear any future interviews with either Bouch or Regula bc you know they'll ask!

Update from Knobber..

Quote: | .."He was on the ice today. He was skating, not with us. It's rehabs skates because he spent so much time not practicing. It'll take a while until he's back practicing with us."
Coach Knoblauch

Quote: | Per scouting reports, Regula is a talented skater and puck mover, and along with his size, should have the ability to stop cycles. The Oilers staff seems to believe he could be an under the radar talent.
"According to the team source, Regula's patience and poise with the puck and ability to pass it are the attributes that intrigue them. The fact that he shoots right is a bonus."
Daniel Nugent-Bowman, the Athletic
In 55 games with the AHL's Providence Bruins last year, Regula scored 4 goals, 26 points, and had an impressive +36 on ice rating.
Hopefully Regula can turn a corner in his recovery now that he's back doing on-ice activities, and can begin to showcase his talents for the Oilers.
