Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch gave the fans screaming for accountability on Evan Bouchard an early Christmas gift on Monday night. With just over eight minutes left in the first period, Knoblauch had seen enough of his $10.5 million defenceman and parked him on the bench until the second frame. Bouchard took an unnecessary…
Fleury left in the second period Tuesday and didn’t return.
There seem to be two schools of thought with the Philadelphia Flyers right now: either fight like hell to stay in the fight, or sort out the major issues, finish where you may, and continue to collect assets so the rebuild isn’t done in half measures. The Flyers’ record of 8-5-2 is smack dab in…
If you’re a Toronto sports fan, you’ve had a busy fall. You watched the Blue Jays stumble down the stretch in September, only to find their footing just in time to win the AL East on the regular season’s final day. Then you watched them handle the Yankees in the ALDS before coming back to beat the Mariners in a thrilling Game 7 classic in the ALCS. That led to one of the greatest World Series ever played, with the underdog Jays giving the fat cat Dodgers all they could handle before losing a h...
In general, the Edmonton Oilers have had yet another underwhelming start to the season. In particular, their offensive play has been highly disappointing thus far, as the team ranks at a lowly 28th place in the NHL in 5-on-5 goals per hour. However, there has been one pleasant surprise amongst Edmonton’s forward group, and that…

Recap of the game.
I have to admit that I don't partake in ice cream all that often in the winter, but it's something that I only enjoy occasionally in the summer. It's not that I don't like ice cream, but finding a flavour that one likes or wants to indulge in every once in a while might be the hardest thing about ice cream. The probably means that there are some good flavours out there that I'm missing like "Unicorn Toots" or "Moon Mist" , but ice cream comes in all sorts of flavours and colours. Food dyes pla...
In the hockey world, any no-talent hack can cry about how bad things are . But it takes true visionary to focus on the positive. And so far this season, there’s been a lot of positive stories to talk about.

Kent Nilsson wasn’t in Edmonton for long after being acquired in March 1987, but the impact he made was massive. He would score five goals and 17 points in 17 games in the end of the regular season before going on a playoff run that saw him score six goals and 19 points in 21…
Love them or hate them, there’s never a dull moment when it comes to the Edmonton Oilers. They had their best come-from-behind win of the season last game against the Columbus Blue Jackets, featuring their first fight of the season, magic from the captain, and big goals and saves when it mattered most. That said,…
Latest from Vancouver on the pair of injured forwards.
It was another one of those nights from Connor McDavid where he took his game to another level. The boo birds who came out in full force at the end of the second period of Monday’s game between the Edmonton Oilers and Columbus Blue Jackets at Rogers Place seemingly lit a fire in the captain,…
Number 54 has traded in his yellow, non-contact uniform for a regular one.
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
Monday night could’ve gone really bad for the Edmonton Oilers. Down 3-1 in the dying seconds of the second period to the Columbus Blue Jackets, the boo birds were out in full swing, and rightfully so. The team had just stunk Rogers Place out two nights prior, and it looks like the Oilers were well…

Western Michigan finished last season with a 16-2-1 home record, and winning at Lawson Arena is no easy task...
News broke early today as the PWHL decided to announce the dates and locations of their 2025-26 Takeover Tour stops. I received an email in my inbox that arrived approximately 30 minutes before the official social media blitz began, but the announcement that the PWHL was coming to Winnipeg to play at the Canada Life Centre felt like a big "finally" had been lifted off this city. Until this year's tournament in April 2025 in Czechia, the IIHF Women's World Championship attendance record had bee...
The Edmonton Oilers needed that victory. On Monday evening, the Oilers hosted the Columbus Blue Jackets before embarking on a seven-game road trip. Despite being down by two goals with less than seven minutes left in the game, the Oilers were able to claw back and win 5-4 in overtime. Let’s take a look at…
An Edmonton Oilers player has finally dropped the gloves. After the Colorado Avalanche demolished the Oilers 9-1 on Saturday, Trent Frederic was one of just three Oilers players to speak to the media, noting that no one wants to fight a player with just one goal through 15 games. Well, he found a dance partner…
Since our last update, the Bakersfield Condors have played four games: a back-to-back against the Calgary Wranglers and another back-to-back against the Henderson Silver Knights. The Condors dropped both games against the Wranglers before rebounding with two wins over Henderson. Early in the season, the strengths and weaknesses of this Condors roster are becoming clear,…
I work a part-time job in the evenings now, so I can’t watch a lot of the games. Perhaps that’s not necessarily a bad thing based on what I’ve been reading and listening to lately. The Oilers are looking grim these days, as they are barely limping along in seventh place in the division at…
The Edmonton Oilers have spent the better part of the last decade being a two-man team. Connor McDavid and Leon Drasiatil. The Dynamic Duo. A pair that was destined to lead the franchise back to the promised land. The proof is in the pudding that those two played a massive role in Edmonton’s back-to-back trips…
Flat. Uninspired. Anemic. Bland. Dreadful. There are hundreds of adjectives that would easily describe the Edmonton Oilers’ performance in their ugly 9-1 loss to Colorado, but the aforementioned words aptly describe much of this season as well. The Oilers have only won six of their first 16 games — only St. Louis, Buffalo, Nashville and…
