The Edmonton Oilers have promoted Will Acton. Acton has two goals and three points in 23 games with Edmonton in 2013-14. The 26-year-old forward doesn't have much offensive upside at the NHL level.

Will Acton will head to the minors. Acton has three points and 14 penalty minutes in 23 games with Edmonton this season. The Oilers might recall him again at some point, but Acton isn't likely to be more than a bottom-six forward this season.

Will Acton was a healthy scratch on Sunday. Acton was the only healthy body in the press box as he was joined by Justin Schultz (groin) and Luke Gazdic (shoulder). Acton has two goals and three points in 16 games and is a plus-two on a poor Edmonton team.

Will Acton picked up a fighting major on Saturday when he battled Ryan Kesler. NActon's father Keith is an assistant coach with the Oilers and Canuck coach John Tortorella was jawing at him after the fight. It's nice when your dad has your back, especially in the NHL as most thought Tortorella should have kept quiet. Acton has no fantasy value as a bottom six forward.
