Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts

Before I talk about the obvious, Darnell Nurse deserves a lot of love. A 3 point game, two of them being goals and one of those being the overtime winner on Thursday night. I even remember a shift where he blocked an attempt at the puck getting to his team’s net. He normally overcommits to […]

Connor McDavid Has Become the 4th Fastest Player to Reach 1,000 Career Points

Edmonton Oilers Captain Connor McDavid has become the fourth-fastest NHL player to reach 1,000 career points, with his milestone goal assisted by none other than Leon Draisaitl on Thursday night against the Nashville Predators. McDavid’s father was present at Rogers Place, proudly witnessing this incredible feat in his son’s career. This accomplishment makes me wonder […]

Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts

They won, that’s all that matters. They won. Tuesday night’s game had no business going to overtime. Edmonton made it a two goal game in the third period against a team riddled with injuries, and then they just couldn’t buy a save. The first Islanders goal was a nice shot, I don’t blame Stuart Skinner […]

Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts

Brett Kulak is on pace for a 21 goal season. I just thought that was a fun thing to say. The way the second period ended brought flashbacks of last year’s second round, when the Oilers had a 3-0 nothing lead in the third period of Game 7 against the Canucks and nearly blew it. […]

Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts

At least the captain is back, that’s cool. Although Connor McDavid didn’t get a single point in his return on Wednesday, he did have two pretty good rush chances. In his first game back from an injury last season, he had two shots then as well, along with an assist and two blocked shots. I […]

Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts

First, I’ll recap a trade that happened before Monday night’s game. The Edmonton Oilers acquired prospect defenseman Ronnie Attard from the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for prospect defenseman Ben Gleason. It was pretty much an AHL move, but it doesn’t hurt to have another right-handed blue liner in the system. We’ll see how it turns […]
