Edmonton Oilers recall Derek Ryan after 13 games in Bakersfield Condors .

Ryan was waived by the Oilers , cleared, and reassigned to the Condors last week .

The 38-year-old has been playing without a real 4C for quite a while now.

The Oilers are below500 without him and need a “real” 4C.

Ryan is a highly-respected leader within the locker room whose presence will surely be welcomed.

It’s the first time the Oilers have had a full complement since the acquisition of Walman ten days ago .

Calvin Pickard , last seen setting up Draisaitl for a memorable overtime winner on Long Island , is slated to get the start in net.

Utah is one of four clubs fighting for the last wild card spot in the West .
