Oilers Game 31: New York Rangers

What a fun 69 seconds that was, eh? Going into the third period, it looked like we were expecting another sour loss. After taking an early 2-0 lead, the Oilers went down 3-2. That’s not a big deficit, but they outshot the Devils 18-6 in the second period. Akira Schmid was pulled after the second […]

Devils Fall Flat Against Oilers

The New Jersey Devils lost 6-3 to the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday night at the Rock in a performance that Devils fans would love to forget. The Devils dropped to 16-13-2 while Edmonton snapped their three-game losing skid, improving to 14-15-1. Game Recap Period One The Devils’ trend of slow starts reared its ugly head […]

Oilers Game 30: New Jersey Devils

I already miss writing happy articles. Edmonton’s eight-game winning streak was turning October and November into a distant memory. But now, with three regulation losses in a row and being seven points out of a Playoff spot, that winning streak seems like a distant memory instead. Ironically, their special teams, the very thing that they […]

Oilers Game 29: New York Islanders

Four wins out of six ain’t bad; I sort of predicted that before Edmonton’s second Carolina game. After having a six-game homestand, The Oilers will now be challenged with a six-game road trip. Three of those games are before the Christmas break. Even though the end of the homestand wasn’t pretty, there is still a […]

Oilers Game 28: Florida Panthers

Lose one after winning eight, and a lot of people lose their minds again. You’ve just got to love Oilers Twitter. But there’s still nothing wrong with analyzing why Thursday night’s game sums up the entire Oilers season thus far. It was probably one of the more entertaining losses I’ve ever sat through. Edmonton was […]

Oilers Game 27: Tampa Bay Lightning

I couldn’t even be mad when Connor Bedard opened the scoring on Tuesday night. Virtually no goalie in the league could’ve stopped his shot. It was a great pass from Alex Vlasic from his own zone to Bedard, waiting for the puck just over centre ice. I just feel bad for Evan Bouchard and Mattias […]

Wild Put Defenseman on LTIR, Recall Defensemen/Forward from Iowa

The Minnesota Wild have recalled defensemen Dakota Mermis and Daemon Hunt and forward Vinni Lettieri from the Iowa Wild and placed defenseman Jonas Brodin on Long Term Injured Reserve. This came after the unexpected news that the Assistant GM was leaving the front office. Jonas Brodin was injured on a controversial hit from behind delivered […]

Oilers Game 26: Chicago Blackhawks

Out of all the players to get a goal called back, it had to be Connor Brown. We’ve been waiting two and a half months to see him score his first as an Oiler. We’re waiting to see him really get going while he has just one assist on the season, with his performance bonus […]

Are The Oilers Back?

It may only be December, but it has already been a tale of two seasons for the Edmonton Oilers. In the first one, everything was going wrong for the hockey club. Connor McDavid dealt with an injury, the team got horrible goaltending, they fired head coach Jay Woodcroft and replaced him with Kris Knoblauch, and […]

Oilers Game 25: New Jersey Devils

Of course, a six-game winning streak is great. But it’s also hilarious to say that Friday night was Edmonton’s first win when they have 40+ shots on goal. Marc-Andre Fleury was standing on his head the whole game, and the Oilers weren’t shooting down low. It’s a team game, and the defensive play led to […]
