Haas made his NHL debut on October 2 against the Vancouver Canucks. Since then, he appeared in a total of five NHL games, recording one assist. He has not received a lot of ice time so far, the most being a bit over twelve minutes in a game against the Los Angeles Kings.

Haas signed an entry-level deal with the Oilers in early July. In an interview with the Journal du Jura a day after his signing became official, he stated that he would not spend an entire season in the AHL: "If it is necessary to get used to the play over there, it is clear that I will go down for one or two weeks. But if this stay were to continue, a solution would be found for me to return to SC Bern."
