Latest news and updates about the Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers can rely on Connor McDavid to dominate for 22 minutes per night, but that alone isn’t enough to win a Stanley Cup. It’s whether they can limit the damage in the non-McDavid minutes that ultimately determines their ceiling. For months, depth issues defined their 2025-26 season, but lately, they’ve shown significant progress. …
The Edmonton Oilers have experienced what life without Leon Draisaitl has been like over the past three weeks, and now they’ll get a taste of life without Zach Hyman as well, as it’s reported he’ll miss the team’s next three road games. Missing two bona fide first-line weapons from the lineup, combining for 66 regular-season…
Good morning, everyone, and a happy Monday to you all. As per tradition, I’ve got a brand new mailbag set to go after taking your questions and sending them to the crew for their takes. This week, we’re discussing the Oilers’ turnaround, free agents, Easter candies, and more. If you’ve got a question you’d like…
First Leon Draisaitl. Now Zach Hyman. For the second year in a row, the Edmonton Oilers will be playing short key bodies down the stretch. While they dropped Saturday night’s affair 5-1 to the Vegas Golden Knights, allowing them to tighten the Pacific Division, it’s what came after the game that was of more concern….
Would a 6-foot-3, 203-pound skilled centre catch your attention? The Edmonton Oilers have already dipped into the European market this season, signing Czech defenceman Tomáš Cibulka. Who’s to say they won’t go back to that well and target a highly skilled centre out of the KHL? With a core offensive unit already in place, the…
During their five-game win streak, the Edmonton Oilers broke out of their zone cleanly and weren’t leaking chances off the rush. Those issues returned in a 5-1 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights, a night where a woman going into labour at Rogers Place, and a fan getting bloodied with a puck provided some of…
With five wins in their past six games, the Edmonton Oilers are beginning to look much more like the team that reached the Stanley Cup Final in back‑to‑back seasons, and they have accomplished much of it in Leon Draisaitl’s absence. Still, with the playoffs only a few weeks away, several questions remain. Chief among them…
As much as every game is a big one for the Edmonton Oilers right now, Saturday’s matchup against the Vegas Golden Knights was massive. Not only did the Oilers have the opportunity to take sole possession of first place in the Pacific Division, but they were also looking to avoid giving Vegas the chance to…
Already without superstar Leon Draisaitl, things are going to get tougher for the Edmonton Oilers on their upcoming three-game road trip. Zach Hyman, who missed Saturday’s 5-1 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights, is expected to miss games against the Utah Mammoth, San Jose Sharks and Los Angeles Kings this week, Oilers head coach Kris…
The Edmonton Oilers’ win streak has come to an end. On Saturday evening, the Oilers fell 5-1 to the Vegas Golden Knights, snapping their five-game winning streak. Let’s take a look at what went on in this one. For the first time since the start of the Oilers’ win streak, the opposing team scored the…
The Edmonton Oilers are back at Rogers Place on Saturday night in the late slot on Hockey Night in Canada for what might be their biggest game of the season so far. And with only a handful of games left on the schedule, every point feels more important than the last, making tonight’s visit from…
The Edmonton Oilers have a chance to do something they’ve never done before: sweep their season series against the Vegas Golden Knights. They’ll do so while also having a chance to secure top spot in the Pacific Division, though they’ll need some help from their rival Calgary Flames, who square off with the Anaheim Ducks…
The 2025-26 season is rapidly coming to an end. It’s all but certain that the Edmonton Oilers will make their seventh consecutive postseason. That said, their first round opponent has yet to be determined, with the two likely options being the Vegas Golden Knights or the Utah Mammoth. The former is the team that the…
Adam Henrique had skated far enough to reach Mannville, Alberta since his last goal. That’s if you combine all the kilometres Henrique skated in his Edmonton Oilers appearances since October 23 on his 50-game goalless drought, roughly 172 clicks, and if he elected to travel due east on Highway 16. Henrique has more games played…
Oilersnation is reviving the Top 100 Edmonton Oilers of All Time list, a project originally created by the late Robin Brownlee in 2015. Todd Marchant comes in at No. 39 on our updated 2025 list. He was number 43 on Brownlee’s original list. From the immortal words of Bob Cole, you can imagine the goal in your mind’s…
The Edmonton Oilers thought they addressed their goaltending issues when they acquired Tristan Jarry from the Pittsburgh Penguins. However, the 30-year-old has struggled mightily since being acquired by Edmonton, as he has an .860 save percentage and 3.81 goals-against average in 17 games with the Pacific Division club. With this and netminder Connor Ingram being a pending unrestricted free agent, the possibility of the Oilers trading for another goaltender this summer should not be ruled out....
The last time Adam Henrique scored a goal, people were getting their Halloween decorations set up, costumes laid out, and candy purchased. All the way back on Oct. 23, 2025, Henrique scored the second goal of the game — and his second of the season — in the Edmonton Oilers’ eighth game of the season….
With just two weeks remaining in the NHL’s regular season, the Edmonton Oilers have all but locked up their place in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for a sixth-straight season. Their magic number to clinch currently sits at just six points. They’ll need some combination of just three wins in their final six games or three…
St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington will be one of the NHL's top trade candidates to watch during the offseason. The 32-year-old goaltender has been the subject of trade rumors for multiple seasons now, and that carried over to this year's deadline. Because of this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire Binnington during the summer. Edmonton Oilers Tristan Jarry's struggles since being acquired by the Oilers could very well lead to Edmonton looking to make a...
Oilersnation is reviving the Top 100 Edmonton Oilers of All Time list, a project originally created by the late Robin Brownlee in 2015. Mike Krushelnyski comes in at No. 40 on our updated 2025 list. He was number 23 on Brownlee’s original list. For being on the Edmonton Oilers for just four seasons, winning three Stanley Cups…
You know what’s cooler than the Oilers winning three straight games? Four games. Know what’s cooler than the Oilers winning for straight games? You guessed it. Five. Five straight games. And while Thursday’s win over the Chicago Blackhawks wasn’t without its speed bumps (read: posts), Edmonton found a way to win even when things didn’t…
With just four more teams remaining in the NCAA National Tournament, the Edmonton Oilers have signed their first player from an eliminated team. On Thursday morning, the team announced that they’ve signed Owen Michaels to a one-year entry level contract which will begin next season. Michaels’ Western Michigan were recently eliminated from the NCAA National…
The Blackhawks were officially eliminated from playoff contention night on Thursday night in Edmonton after a 3-1 loss to the Oilers. After a scoreless first period and with Spencer Knight briefly in the locker room while dealing with an equipment issue, Adam Henrqiue scored the game’s first goal on a breakaway that he finished after Arvid Soderblom made the initial save.
