NHL Game Preview: Edmonton Oilers vs. Arizona Coyotes | 04/17/2024

I apologize to any Sharks fans who may’ve watched Monday night’s game live in person. Oilers fans can relate by remembering a time when our team had dozens of losses as bad as that one. When San Jose becomes good enough to get out of their rebuilding phase, they’ll look back and laugh at a […]

NHL Game Preview: Edmonton Oilers vs. San Jose Sharks | 04/15/2024

The final meeting between the Oilers and Canucks, at least in the regular season for now, didn’t end with a blowout like the first meeting or the third meeting. The first period was similar to the second meeting, where they looked like the better team on the ice with way more shots on goal. However, […]

Congrats to NHL referee Kyle Rehman for officiating his 1000th game on Thursday night. Leon Draisaitl gave him some congratulatory taps before the opening face-off, with the Sportsnet broadcast jokingly quipping that the sentimental would wear off right after the game started, and it did. Not that it matters anymore after your team wins by […]

The Maple Leafs sealed their second straight win on Saturday, March 23rd when they played against the Edmonton Oilers at the Scotiabank Arena.

Stuart Skinner Plays Pivotal Role In Oilers’ Stanley Cup Playoff Hopes

Stuart Skinner stirs the “oil” in Edmonton during the regular season, but can it carry over into the Stanley Cup Playoffs? After a rugged start to the season at both ends of the ice for the Edmonton Oilers, they now hold second place in the Pacific Division. This is due, in part, to Connor McDavid finding yet another […]

PHOTOS: Washington Capitals vs. Edmonton Oilers – 03/13/2024

EDMONTON, AB – Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals traveled to Edmonton Wednesday to take on the Edmonton Oilers at Rogers Place. The Oilers would get off to a roaring start, burying a pair of power-to-play goals in the opening seven minutes, but the Capitals quickly clawed their way back into the game by burying […]

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 […]

NHL Game Preview: Edmonton Oilers vs. Buffalo Sabres | 03/09/2024

Did you like Thursday night’s game? Me neither. You play well against one of the best teams in the league the game before and then play like garbage against one of the worst teams in the league the next game. We’ve heard that song and dance before. The Oilers went down 3-0 in the first […]

NHL Game Preview: Edmonton Oilers vs. Columbus Blue Jackets | 03/07/2024

First Robert Thomas a week ago, then Danton Heinen two days ago. You thought stopping a shorthanded breakaway was great, imagine preventing an empty net goal. If Ryan Nugent-Hopkins makes another successful backcheck, we’re calling it the Nuge Hat-Trick. That’s why you don’t stop watching a hockey game until every minute has been played. Most […]
