Montreal Canadiens Joshua Roy Out Indefinitely

The Montreal Canadiens have announced that forward Joshua Roy will be out indefinitely after blocking a shot with his leg from Edmonton Oilers defenceman Evan Bouchard. Roy has been a bright spot for the Canadiens in his 23 games with the team this year, putting up four goals and five assists for nine points. The […]

Edmonton Oilers Interested In Walker And Laughton?

On Monday’s The Oil Stream episode, Tom Gazzola told Dustin Neilson that David Pagnotta from The Fourth Period confirmed the Edmonton Oilers are speaking to the Philadelphia Flyers regarding a potential trade. This apparently dates back to November when the Oilers were one of the worst teams in the league. But the player the Oilers […]

NHL Game Preview: Edmonton Oilers vs. Los Angeles Kings | 02/26/2024

I like the Battle of Alberta better when we win. Instead, we went back to watching October and November style hockey from Edmonton against the worst possible opponent. 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 […]

NHL Game Recap: Dallas Stars vs. Edmonton Oilers Recap | 02/17/2024

The Dallas Stars returned home to host the Edmonton Oilers in a Saturday matinee game on ABC. The Stars fell 4-3 to the Oilers in overtime at the American Airlines Center. Dallas fell to 34-14-7, while Edmonton improved to 32-18-1. Oilers backup goaltender Calvin Pickard made 24 saves for a win. Stars fans who arrived […]

Oilers Game 30: New Jersey Devils

I already miss writing happy articles. Edmonton’s eight-game winning streak was turning October and November into a distant memory. But now, with three regulation losses in a row and being seven points out of a Playoff spot, that winning streak seems like a distant memory instead. Ironically, their special teams, the very thing that they […]

Are The Oilers Back?

It may only be December, but it has already been a tale of two seasons for the Edmonton Oilers. In the first one, everything was going wrong for the hockey club. Connor McDavid dealt with an injury, the team got horrible goaltending, they fired head coach Jay Woodcroft and replaced him with Kris Knoblauch, and […]

Oilers Game 10: Nashville Predators

Well, I can’t give the usual rant I have about the Oilers losing due to a lack of effort. They were the better team on Thursday, just really unlucky. Evan Bouchard had a hat trick of goalposts hit, and too many fluky bounces didn’t find their way into the net. But they couldn’t get a […]

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 […]

Evan Bouchard Signs Two-Year Contract With Edmonton Oilers

While the Edmonton Oilers have not officially announced it, Elliotte Friedman is back in business, posting on X that the Oilers and Evan Bouchard are closing in on a two-year contract. The contract would carry an average annual value of $3.9 million per season. The Oilers’ 2018 10th overall selection has taken on a major […]

Ryan McLeod Re-Signs With Edmonton Oilers

On Tuesday night, the Edmonton Oilers avoided the salary arbitration deadline of August 4th and re-signed restricted free agent forward Ryan McLeod to a two-year contract paying him $2.1M per season. McLeod has played three NHL seasons, recording 20 goals and 25 assists for 45 points in 138 games. A solid two-way forward for Edmonton’s […]
