Should The Edmonton Oilers Pursue Chris Tanev?

Trade with the rivals? What sort of blasphemy is this? Yes, I am absolutely contemplating the Edmonton Oilers making a deal with the Calgary Flames. Vancouver Canucks insider Rick Dhaliwal reported that Edmonton was making a push for Tanev’s services. It wouldn’t be the first time the two Alberta teams decided to be friends in […]

NHL Game Preview: Edmonton Oilers vs St. Louis Blues | 02/15/2024

Until the third period, Tuesday night’s game didn’t feel like an 8-4 blowout. The Oilers had a two-goal lead twice but went into the second intermission tied. Give credit to Detroit, they’re a very fast team to play against. This is why it was so careless of Edmonton to fall asleep in the second period […]

How many screenshots did you take of the NHL standings after Saturday night’s win? Oh, man. There’s still lots of hockey left, but you can’t tell me it doesn’t feel nice to finally see the Oilers logo in a Playoff position after the team’s godawful start to the season. The Coyotes and Flames even lost […]

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 […]

Bargain Bin: Oilers, Jets, Flyers, Bruins, NHL Draft

It feels like there’s not a lot going on, but so much at the same time in the National Hockey League. In Saturday’s edition of Bargain Bin, I focused on a lot of rumour-based stuff and some news. Today, I’m going to focus on some more news and less of the rumour-based stuff without straying […]

This Week On Oilers Hockey: 26

Happy Easter, Oilers fans. Your holiday gift, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, is a 100 point player. The longest current Oiler, who had played through many of Edmonton’s darkest seasons since being drafted, and now part of a Stanley Cup contender after 12 NHL seasons. Turning 30 on Wednesday, he still looks like an 18-year-old going first overall […]

This Week On Oilers Hockey: 24

Congrats to Cody Ceci for playing his 700th NHL game on Saturday night. He has notoriously been a whipping boy for the analytics community and has not played his best hockey paired with Darnell Nurse throughout most of this season. But it’s still a significant accomplishment for any player, and there’s still a lot of […]
