Oilers Thoughts: Missing Hyman, Howard’s Reset, and a Plea to McDavid

The Oilers’ first road swing gave us a bit of everything — a power play without bite, a rookie still finding his place, and a few questionable lineup calls. There’s plenty to like and plenty to fix, but one thing’s clear: this team misses Zach Hyman. Missing Hyman Without Zach Hyman, the Oilers’ power play…

Los Angeles Kings forward Adrian Kempe has begun the final season of his contract, with many wondering what the future could be between the player and the team.

Scouts From Oilers & Plenty More Rush To See Blue Jackets

The Columbus Blue Jackets hosted a busy night as scouts from all around the league flooded in to see them host the Colorado Avalanche. The interest was heavily directed towards the Blue Jackets, though, as Yegor Chinakhov made his season debut. It was a lackluster debut for the 2025-26 season by the trade candidate. He played just 9 minutes, was a -1, and blocked one shot. Chinakhov skated alongside Isac Lundestrom and Zach Aston-Reese on the fourth line. It wasn't what teams were looking to s...

The Day After 4.0: Mistakes mount as Oilers lose on Long Island

After the Edmonton Oilers eked out a Tuesday night win over the New York Rangers on the back of a tremendous performance from Stuart Skinner, the team knew there were some things to address. They were sloppy early, turned over far too many pucks, and could’ve let the game slip away if not for their…

GDB 4.0: Oilers Winning With Defence (5:30 PM MT, SN360)

Just as many expected. The Edmonton Oilers are winning early on this season on the strength of good defensive play and sound goaltending. Through the first week of the season, the Oilers lead the NHL with a 1.33 GAA (goals against average), while ranking 25th in goals per game at 2.67. The Oilers have three…

Los Angeles Kings Playoff Preview

New year, same story, still hoping for a different ending. Deeply concerning defensive lapses aside to the second worst team in the NHL this year and nearly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, the Los Angeles Kings, with the help of the Vegas Golden Knights not showing up to their game against the Anaheim Ducks, managed to solidify their standing of 3rd place in the Pacific Division, giving them, for the third straight year, the Edmonton Oilers as their playoff opponent. ...

Coyotes Game 82 Preview: The End

Game Preview It is all over today. Not only is the Arizona Coyotes’ 2023-24 season coming to an end tonight in a match against the Edmonton Oilers, but the team’s time in Arizona will also be over. The Desert Dogs’ have been a significant part of so many people’s lives and have been a roller coaster this season.

Coyotes Game 81 Preview: Coyotes face Flames in penultimate game

Game Preview The future of the Arizona Coyotes may be bleak, but that isn’t stopping the players from giving their all. The Desert Dogs are 3-1-0 on their current road trip after back-to-back overtime wins against the Vancouver Canucks and Edmonton Oilers. Neither game was perfect, but they were solid wins against two of the top teams in the Western Conference. In both matchups, the Coyotes did a good job at scoring first, only to see their opponents come back and tie the game. ...

Coyotes Game 80 Preview: Coyotes face Oilers in the penultimate game of the road trip

Game Preview The Arizona Coyotes’ final road trip has been exciting so far. They started with a commanding win over San Jose, only to get destroyed by the Seattle Kraken in their second game. Then, on Wednesday, after allowing the Vancouver Canucks to come back from a 3-1 deficit, Logan Cooley notched his 19th of the season to give the Coyotes their first win over the Canucks this season. It was an excellent night for Dylan Guenther, who was involved in all four of the Coyotes’ goals...

GDT: Oilers vs Daylight Savings Time

Was really hoping he was traded to a contender | Photo by Jonathan Kozub/NHLI via Getty Images It’s a late one tonight. 10:30 EST start. This may seem outrageous however, I’d suggest to get used to it because playoff games start at 10 EST and they always start late. So this should feel like dryland training for the playoffs! Coyotes are a fake team designed to take on cap space for the other teams. Most recently it was Jakub Voracek going there to LTIRetire. They definitely didn’t get w...

GDT: Sharks vs Oilers

Is it a battle of former Leaf goalies tonight? Should see at least 10 goals if so. | Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images Welcome back! Tonight is the Sharks and there are a few reasons I’m fascinated with this one: I was in charge of our Mock Draft and drafted Martin Kaut... at the time everyone said I was nuts and he’d be a bust. Well, you were probably right! But I will cheer for him to the end. Campbell may be the starter and that’s always fun! Reimer may be starting toni...

GDT: Bring on Eberle and Larsson!

4 years later and RW is still weak! | Photo by Steph Chambers/Getty Images EDM lineup at Seattle: Kane-McDavid-Hyman RNH-Draisaitl-Foegele Janmark-Bjugstad-Yamamoto Kostin-Shore-Ryan Nurse-Ceci Ekholm-Bouchard Kulak-Desharnais Skinner — Jack Michaels (@EdmontonJack) March 18, 2023 Ekholm has been an unbeliveable add. I don’t like our RD side at all though. Our LD side is doing some heavy lifting. And here is a fun tweet from us that I feel is worth discussing: IC...
