According to Liam McCormick of Oilers Daily, It's certainly a positive update for Arvidsson and the Oilers, but sounds like he still may miss a game or two with a minor issue.
Any positive update would be a result of medical imaging not showing a major problem, but Nugent-Bowman did say that the Oilers are still on their road trip - perhaps they don't have imaging yet.
Since returning from his previous injury, Viktor has been a steady presence on the Oilers top 6.
While Daniel Nugent-Bowman confirms his injury isn't serious, his status for tonight's game against the Vancouver Canucks remains unknown.
