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 […]

Goalie Choice Was the Difference Tuesday in DFS

Tuesday night was the right night to start the journey from $0-$500. Unfortunately, it also was a night of poor decisions and inaccurate gut feelings. Before heading to work Tuesday morning, while enjoying a coffee, I opened up to see what the Vegas lines were for the night and the over/under for each game. Right […]

Oilers Game 4: Philadelphia Flyers

Oilers fans are sane again, splendid. Lose the first game by seven goals, then the next game by one goal, and win the next game by five goals. It’s just as the hockey gods intended. I didn’t realize this until the first goal was scored, but Leon Drasaitl is now Edmonton’s franchise leader in powerplay […]

Opinion: The Oilers Defence is a Mess…Again

All offseason, we heard the same old story from the Oilers organization. “We learned lessons”. “Defence is a priority”. But after two embarrassing losses to the Vancouver Canucks, the Oilers are back at square one. What’s wrong? Let’s break it down. And offer a solution at the end, specifically meant for the ears of Ken […]
