NHL Game Preview: Edmonton Oilers vs. Washington Capitals | 03/13/2024

In Edmonton’s second blowout win against the Penguins this season, Darnell Nurse had himself a really good bounce-back game after some shifts in Buffalo that I wasn’t a huge fan of. He did take one needless penalty in the first period that Twitter showed no mercy towards. He made up for it the rest of […]

The Flames came prepared to play, and the Oilers did not; it was as simple as that. Evan Bouchard and Mattias Ekholm have been a great pairing […]

Bakersfield Condors goaltender #36 Jack Campbell and defenseman #5 Philip Broberg

Even when your team keeps winning, there’s nothing wrong with entertaining possibilities or pondering scenarios. The turnaround that the Oilers have seen in their goaltending has been astronomical. Stuart Skinner went […]

NHL Game Preview: Edmonton Oilers vs. Nashville Predators | 01/27/2024

I’m running out of positive things to write about this team. The Edmonton Oilers won again- great. 15 in a row- fantastic. There’s your coverage; moving on. It was easier and more depressing to write about the Oilers when they were losing. That feels like a year ago now, and we’re only a month into […]
