Goaltending has been an obvious sore spot for the Edmonton Oilers in 2025-26. So much so that they did something that’s not often done, trading their starter mid-season for a different season. Similarly, the Colorado Avalanche addressed their goaltending situation early into the 2024-25 season, trading for both Mackenzie Blackwood and Scott Wedgewood. You’d be…

The Pittsburgh Penguins lost again on Thursday, dropping a 4-0 decision to the Ottawa Senators that was a concerning replay of Tuesday’s loss to the Edmonton Oilers. They fell behind early, showed little pushback, and quietly lost by multiple goals without much of a serious challenge. At least they have moved on from losing multiple […]
The Oilers appear to be rounding into form. After a 6-4 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins earlier this week, Edmonton rolled into Boston and took down the Bruins by a score of 3-1. The two teams exchanged power play tallies in the first period, recent American Hockey League call-up Quinn Hutson buried his first NHL…
The Pittsburgh Penguins have not done well since acquiring Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak from the Edmonton Oilers , but that isn't fully on them. Skinner has only played one game, a loss to the Oilers, and Kulak is a third-pairing defenseman. The Penguins are right in the mix still as they are two points back with one game in hand of a playoff spot. They have been dealing with some injuries throughout the season, so if they get healthy all at once, they could be a force like they were at the ...
Another goaltending nightmare could be unfolding in Edmonton. And the Oilers might be reaching out to the Buffalo Sabres to solve it. New Oilers goalie Triston Jarry left Thursday night's game with an injury , and insider Elliotte Friedman reported on Friday's 32 Thoughts podcast that the Oilers have interest in Sabres' netminder Alex Lyon. And new Sabres GM Jarmo Kekalainen has already said that the three-goalie experiment is coming to an end in Buffalo. They have Ukko-Pekka...
Game four of the Oilers’ five-game road trip took them to Boston for their first of two meetings with the Bruins. In a game where the details mattered, Edmonton kept things simple, stayed patient, and didn’t panic when adversity showed up. Even after losing Tristan Jarry midway through the night, the Oilers held their ground…
Sometimes the best player in world is just the best player in the world, eh? While not quite a one-man show, Connor McDavid lifted the Oilers to a 3-1 win at TD Garden last night, helping Edmonton improve to six wins in their last eight games. McDavid assisted on Edmonton’s first goal, then added a […]
Yeah, the Edmonton Oilers are back. On Thursday evening, the Oilers played the fourth game on their five-game road trip, taking on the Boston Bruins.

A concerning sight in Beantown. During the second period of Thursday night’s game against the Boston Bruins, Edmonton Oilers goaltender Tristan Jarry exited the game after suffering a lower-body injury.

Leon Draisaitl’s done it, scoring his 1,000th point on Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins, becoming the fifth player in Edmonton Oilers history to hit the century mark with the club. Hitting the mark took him a year longer than Connor McDavid, who hit the mark in Nov. 2024 on a goal set up by…
Another night of hockey is upon us, folks! We don’t see Edmonton too often around these parts, and it’s always a treat to get to watch elite talent like Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. Bruins defenders/goalies may feel differently, but it can’t be about them all of the time, right? One week to go until […]
The Tristan Jarry/Stuart Skinner trade will not be the last deal the Edmonton Oilers make this season. Not by a long shot. Insider Bob Stauffer ( h/t David Staples in the Edmonton Journal) said on the Oilers Now podcast that they'll be adding a Top-9 forward. Currently, the team is without injured forwards Jack Roslovic and Kasperi Kapanen. When they're back, it'll be a nearly complete top three lines. But not quite. I do think that the Edmonton Oilers are still going t...
If Russia were eligible to play in the 2026 Olympics, Vasily Podkolzin would have a strong case to make the team. Among Russian players, he is tied with Alex Ovechkin and Kirill Kaprizov for the second most five-on-five goals with nine, with Ivan Barbashev (10) just ahead. Podkolzin is +11 at five-on-five (29-18), and he’s…
Brett Kulak's stay with the Pittsburgh Penguins may not be long as the team could flip him sooner rather than later. In order for the Edmonton Oilers to acquire Tristan Jarry from the Penguins, money had to go back, and Stuart Skinner wasn't enough. Kulak was also included with his $2.75 million AAV cap hit. According to Elliotte Friedman, "Before he was included in the Pittsburgh deal, I think there were some teams in on Brett Kulak. That one isn't over...they did that (flipped an acquisition...
After a slow start to the season by his lofty standards, Connor McDavid has finally caught fire. On Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins, he recorded his third four-point performance of the month, propelling him to the top of the NHL scoring leaderboard for the first time this season. Before this recent run of dominance,…
Stan Bowman was active in the goaltending market last week, acquiring Tristan Jarry, but the Edmonton Oilers’ general manager may not be done yet. Bowman is still looking to improve his backup situation, and that addition could be Buffalo Sabres goaltender Alex Lyon. Jeff Marek speculated on Oilersnation Everyday Wednesday that Edmonton should show interest…
