Date News Advice
Oct. 29, 2025 Hamblin scored twice on three shots in AHL Bakersfield's 5-4 overtime loss to Colorado on Tuesday. - Hamblin has gotten on the scoresheet in just two of six games for the Condors this season, but both instances have been multi-point efforts. The 26-year-old is a potential call-up for the Oilers whenever they need to add a little grit to the bottom six. The Edmonton native has three points over 41 career NHL outings, though he didn't get into a game with the big club last season. None
Oct. 19, 2025 Hamblin scored twice on four shots and added an assist in AHL Bakersfield's 5-4 overtime win over Coachella Valley on Sunday. - Hamblin was held off the scoresheet in the Condors' first two games before this breakout effort. The 26-year-old had 19 goals and 45 points in 51 regular-season AHL outings last year. He's earned 41 appearances for the Oilers at the NHL level, but with just three points in those games, he's unlikely to have much of a scoring presence if he gets a call-up in 2025-26. None
Oct. 7, 2025 Hamblin was reassigned to AHL Bakersfield on Tuesday. - In a corresponding move, the Oilers recalled Isaac Howard from the minors. Hamblin collected 19 goals and 45 points over 51 games with AHL Bakersfield during the 2024-25 regular season. None

None
Oct. 2, 2025 Hamblin was reassigned to AHL Bakersfield on Thursday. - Hamblin was called up and played in Wednesday's preseason game versus the Kraken. The 26-year-old forward is expected to be an organizational depth option in 2025-26, though he didn't get any regular-season NHL games last year in a similar capacity. None

Jan. 20, 2024 Hamblin was loaned to AHL Bakersfield on Saturday, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports. - Hamblin had two goals and three points across 31 games in a bottom-six role with Edmonton.

Dec. 28, 2023 Hamblin is stuck in an 11-game point drought. - Hamblin's last point was a helper Nov. 28 versus the Golden Knights. The 24-year-old has maintained a steady spot on the Oilers' fourth line, but his limited usage and nonexistent offense makes him a non-factor in fantasy. For the season, he has three points, 12 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 22 appearances. Hamblin may lose his place in the lineup once Sam Gagner (undisclosed) and Dylan Holloway (lower body) are able to play. None

The 24-year-old has added four shots on net, three blocked shots, one hit and a plus-1 rating over six appearances in a fourth-line role this season. Hamblin would have to show far more consistency on offense to be considered for a move up the lineup. None
Nov. 5, 2023 Hamblin was recalled from AHL Bakersfield on Sunday. - Hamblin has three goals and five points in six AHL games this season but hasn't seen any NHL action since last year.
