Quick Change: Laviolette’s Move To Start Backup Quick Spurs NY Rangers’ 3-0 Shutout Of Oilers

The NY Rangers dispatched of a struggling Edmonton Oilers team behind a 3-0 shutout by surprise starter Jonathan Quick. Yes, the Oilers are without the best player in the world, but their issues run much deeper than that, and the Rangers exposed most of them with a stellar 2nd period and stout goaltending. As usual, […]

Zack Kassian Announces Retirement

On October 26th, 2023, Zack Kassian announced his retirement from the NHL after 12 seasons as he would spend time with the Buffalo Sabres, Vancouver Canucks, Arizona Coyotes, and Edmonton Oilers where he would play in 613 NHL games putting up 92 goals and 111 assists for 203 points along with 913 PIMS.

Oilers Game 7: New York Rangers

Rather than calling this Game 7 of the regular season, we should call it Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Maybe if Edmonton pretends that’s what it is, we won’t see third periods like the one on Tuesday night. Jack Campbell was statistically bad, allowing 6 goals on 31 shots. But he was bailing […]

Goaltending Continues to Be a Problem for the Oilers

It may be a new NHL season, but the Edmonton Oilers are already displaying the same problem that has plagued them repeatedly over the last few seasons. The Oilers are 1-4-0-1 through six games. This is a terrible start for a team that is supposed to contend for the Stanley Cup this season. If you […]

Two Desperate Teams, But the Wild Win

The Minnesota Wild game against the Edmonton Oilers started off in a disappointing fashion. Only one minute into the game, the Oilers were already on the board. After a hot and cold start to the season, plenty of Wild players needed to find their footing. The Oilers are also off to a bad start to […]

Oilers Game 6: Minnesota Wild

No F-bomb from the coach this time. The second game at Rogers Place was sort of like the first game at Rogers Place. The difference is the quality of shots, not just quantity, not finding the back of the net. Edmonton’s scoring chances looked more organized in this game than in their home opener, where […]

PREVIEW: MN Wild Host the Edmonton Oilers

The Minnesota Wild host the Edmonton Oilers at the Xcel Center on Tuesday, 10/23, at 8 p.m. CT for the last game of their three-game homestand. Both teams have less than stellar records this far in the season, and Tuesday’s battle might be close to a battle of equals. This game is part of the […]

Connor McDavid Out With Upper-Body Injury

The Edmonton Oilers announced that Connor McDavid will be out one to two weeks with an upper-body injury that was sustained during the final five minutes of the third period in Saturday’s overtime loss to the Winnipeg Jets. There is no doubt that the injury to McDavid is a massive blow to the Oilers moving […]

Oilers Game 5: Winnipeg Jets

Who had Jay Woodcroft dropping an F-bomb on their hockey season bingo card? A calmer, more optimistic coach had to lose his patience at some point. The sky is not falling, and there are still 78 games left to play. But for a team that said it’s “Cup or Bust,” they seem to be more […]
