Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts

A Playoff type of game in early December, that’s pretty cool. Edmonton failed to sweep their three game road trip, but it wasn’t for a lack of trying. In the first two periods, both the Oilers and Golden Knights were playing a tight defensive game. Then the third period made it possibly the most entertaining […]

Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts

They overcame the US turkey legs coming from the other side of the border. Edmonton started last night’s game playing like they’d just taken a week off. It’s normal, layoffs aren’t always kind to any team. Goals against came off of turnovers and bad line changes. A 2-0 deficit in the first period wasn’t part […]

Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts

I hope you all had a nice week away from hockey. I hope any American hockey fans possibly reading this enjoyed their Thanksgiving holiday with their families.
