EDMONTON - The Edmonton Oilers activated defenceman Denis Grebeshkov from the injured reserve list Sunday.
He missed three games after suffering an upper-body injury in Edmonton's 3-1 win at Carolina on Nov. 1.
Entering Sunday's road game against the New Jersey Devils, Grebeshkov has one goal and four assists in 10 games this season. The six-foot, 209-pound Russian had 18 points (3-15) in 71 games for the Oilers last season.

Who should start in goal for Russia at the Olympics?
“I was coming in to take the boards away and had some good jump. He bobbled the puck at the last second and I don’t think he saw me coming at all. It was a shoulder right in his chest. He’s eight feet tall, so it’s not like you could hit him in the head.”
- Ottawa's Chris Neil about a hit he threw on Tampa's Victor Hedman Thursday night, causing Hedman to leave the game.
