Oilers Christmas Wishes? Nice Or Naughty?

Merry Christmas, Oilers fans. A holiday that will either distract you from how our team plays or a time to share your strong emotions with family members right beside you. I’ll be taking on the role of Santa Claus for this one. What do I have on my nice list, and what do I have […]

Is Dustin Schwartz Really The Problem?

As the Oilers have opened up the season with a goalie controversy only 16 games in, there has been quite a bit of finger-pointing at Dustin Schwartz. Mostly negative. Most are about how new Oiler Jack Campbell has started his season with abysmal numbers. Through 10 games this season, Jack Campbell has a record of […]

The grimacing was a dead giveaway. But Edmonton Oilers GM Ken Holland confirmed Wednesday that forward Leon Draisaitl was battling a high-ankle sprain for nearly a month. Holland explained that Draisaitl injured the ankle during Game 6 of the quarterfinals against the Los Angeles Kings. But like a typical hockey player, Draisatil put on his […]

The Nuge Has Been Huge For Edmonton

When people talk about the Oilers, there’s a pretty high chance that they’re talking about 1) McDavid, 2) Draisaitl, or 3) McDavid and Draisaitl, and for a good reason as (and stop me if you’ve heard this before) both are having stellar seasons. Especially the new guys, like Hyman, who is one goal away from […]

A Look Inside Ryan Nugent-Hopkins’ Incredible Playmaking Run

An Apple a Day If you had told me before the season started that after 13 games, the Edmonton Oilers would have the NHL leader in assists on their team and that the player wasn’t named Connor McDavid or Leon Draisaitl, I would have called you a lunatic. And yet here we are, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, […]
