Edmonton Oilers Pregame Thoughts
Oilers fans are happy again… For now. Before I talk hockey, in case you missed it, Edmonton claimed forward Kasperi Kapanen on Tuesday before their Ottawa game started.

First, I’ll recap a trade that happened before Monday night’s game. The Edmonton Oilers acquired prospect defenseman Ronnie Attard from the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for prospect defenseman Ben Gleason. It was pretty much an AHL move, but it doesn’t hurt to have another right-handed blue liner in the system. We’ll see how it turns […]

That was a fun Halloween night of hockey. Leon Draisaitl once again went trick-or-treating on the Predators with another productive game against them. Viktor Arvidsson and Zach Hyman finally scored their first goals of the season. Their struggles to put the puck in the net haven’t been for the lack of trying or signs of […]
