Oilers 2026 trade deadline target: Boone Jenner
One of the Edmonton Oilers’ biggest needs is a third-line centre. Boone Jenner is one of the best options available for that role ahead of March 6th’s trade deadline. It’s unclear if he’ll be traded, as the Columbus Blue Jackets have 65 points in 56 games, just four points behind the Boston Bruins for the…
Pre-Scout: Czechia’s best chance to beat Canada is goaltending and David Pastrňák
There’s strength in numbers. For the Czech men’s hockey team, that strength is their netminders, not the slim pool of players from which they select them. Their first big test will be taking on the powerhouse Canadian team Thursday morning. To do what Dominik Hašek and Jaromir Jagr did in 1998, shock the world and…
Eight current and former Oilers, including Gretzky, Hall, Draisaitl and McDavid, named to CHL top 50 players of all-time
Eight current and former members of the Edmonton Oilers have been named to the Canadian Hockey League’s top 50 players of all-time list. It isn’t a finalized list, however, as the league has opened a fan vote running through March 10th, which will allow fans to select their own top 10 CHL players of all-time….
Looking back at Connor McDavid’s history with Team Canada
At the last Winter Olympics in 2022, close to 2 billion people tuned in to watch the events, and if this Winter Olympics gets anywhere near that number, those who don’t know the name Connor McDavid will soon learn it — when they see a hockey player clearly on another level, blowing past defenders on…

Team of the Week: Quinnipiac
Maybe you haven't noticed, but Quinnipiac is churning along, already surpassing 20 wins for the seventh straight season (not including the COVID-shortened year). That also means it's on its way to a seventh straight trip to the NCAA Tournament. Two of those seasons had 30 wins, and one of them included a national championship...
Canisius Gearing Up For Stretch Run

Oilersnation Radio: Oilers trade rumours and Baggedmilk’s Olympic trivia
It’s Tuesday afternoon, and there’s a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today’s episode, the guys discussed the Oilers at the Olympics, Team Canada’s line combinations, a potential trade idea for Andrew Mangiapane, and much more. We kicked off…
Oilers’ Leon Draisaitl skates with former teammate Dominik Kahun for German Olympic team, Samanski to centre 3rd line
The first set of projected lines for Team Germany has been released, according to Daily Faceoff. It’s no surprise that Edmonton Oilers star and Team Germany captain Leon Draisaitl will centre the top line. He’s set to play with former Oilers teammate Dominik Kahun on the right wing, who played 48 games in 2020-21, scoring…
Top 100 Oilers: No. 46 — Craig Muni
Oilersnation is reviving the Top 100 Edmonton Oilers of All Time list, a project originally created by the late Robin Brownlee in 2015. Craig Muni comes in at No. 46 on our updated 2025 list. He was ranked No. 38 on Brownlee’s original list. Craig Muni was drafted by the Toronto Maple Leafs in the…
The Risk Versus The Reward
I know there's a push among women's hockey players to allow for more physicality in their game, and I'm not here to stifle that discussion and any resulting progress. If the women want to throw checks, they should be able to come to a reasonable agreement on how that can be done. As we saw in today's Canada-Czechia game, there are some women who are rather good at throwing bodychecks, but, just as in men's hockey, there can be injuries as we saw Canadian captain Marie-Philip Poulin exit the ga...
Comparing the Oilers’ depth forwards to other playoff teams’ depth forwards
The Edmonton Oilers’ depth forwards haven’t produced much offence this season. Some have suggested it is due to a lack of opportunity or role. Is that true? I wasn’t sure, so I decided to compare the Oilers’ depth forwards time on ice and production to other teams in the Western Conference. Let’s see how they…
‘As he should be’: German teammates react to Oilers’ Leon Draisaitl being named Olympic captain
Leon Draisaitl will don the ‘C’ for the Germans at the 2026 Olympics, something his teammates said was a no-brainer decision for the team. For Draisaitl, it won’t be the first time that he’s worn a letter while representing his country on the international stage, wearing an ‘A’ at the 2014 World Juniors, and an…
State of the Nation: We need your votes in our Oilers Fan Poll!
The Olympic break is upon us, leaving a 21-day break between Edmonton Oilers games. Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Josh Samanski are preparing for the start of a great Olympic tournament, while others are getting a much-needed holiday for the breakneck pace of Oilers games. As we wait for the first Team Canada game on…

Oilers’ Leon Draisaitl named captain of Team Germany
Captain Germany. The Edmonton Oilers star forward Leon Draisaitl was named the captain of Team Germany on Monday, cementing his status as an athletic icon in his native country. Earlier, Draisaitl was chosen as a flagbearer at the Milan-Cortina Opening Ceremonies by the German Olympic Committee, arriving at the games before teammate and now rival…
Meet the Sellers: Vincent Trocheck is the New York Rangers’ best trade chip after dealing Artemi Panarin
The New York Rangers have already made two notable trades. Shortly before the roster freeze on Wednesday, they sent the best winger, Artemi Panarin, to the Los Angeles Kings. Before that, Carson Soucy was traded to their geographical rivals, the New York Islanders. Still, the New York Rangers could make a few more moves before…
Ten Oilers on pace to hit career highs in various categories after the Olympic break
Not watching the Edmonton Oilers play every second night feels kind of strange, doesn’t it? But for many of us, watching the Olympics is filling the void — Team Canada’s women’s team dominated Switzerland 4–0, and it was a treat to see Leon Draisaitl wave the flag for Team Germany at the opening ceremony, with…

NHL weekend rankings: A blockbuster trade, a midseason rankings reset, and more
Let’s get you caught up on all the NHL action you missed over the weekend. There wasn’t any. Cool, good column. See you next time. OK, we won’t wrap it up quite that quickly. But with most teams getting only a couple of games in since this time last week, don’t expect any major changes in the rankings. Instead, let’s use this week as a bit of a reset and regroup before the rankings take a few weeks off. For example, now would be a good time to look at which teams have been on which lists so fa...
