The NHL’s relationship with its players playing on the international stage is… convoluted at best. The league didn’t send any of its players until the 1998 Olympics, forming a relationship with the international hockey community that ran unabated for two decades. The Czech Republic would take the Gold Medal that year, and one has to…

Things have been quiet in Kraken land lately. It makes sense why. Seattle hasn’t played since the Oilers shut them out 4-0 on home ice on Saturday. Their power play went 0-6 on the day, and they were shut out for the second time in their last three games. That same PP is 0/14 in…

If there's one thing that I can honestly say about having a radio show is that we, at no point in time, have ever claimed to have any influence on anyone when it comes to the game of hockey. We don't have the same reach or market share as a TSN radio nor a CJOB locally, so seeing local news stories covering something we were talking about on The Hockey Show just a couple of weeks ago seems pretty cool. Of course, coverage matters and a few of these outlets did what seems like the bare minimum,...

As we all get excited for best-on-best Olympic hockey, an under-the-radar bombshell dropped on hockey fans Tuesday. The rink is going to be smaller by a whole three to four feet compared to NHL dimensions. Forget Olympic ice, going to be bigger — it’s going to be smaller! According to The Athletic: “The International Ice…

Nothing has come easily for the Edmonton Oilers this season. They’ve yet to win more than two games in a row, and one could argue they struggled to play even two consecutive solid games in a row, until their last two against Seattle and Minnesota. I understand a team would rather win and play poorly…

Public enemy No. 1 from last Saturday’s game between the Edmonton Oilers and Seattle Kraken won’t be in the lineup for the rematch. Kraken forward Mason Marchment found himself under the skin of the Oilers after laying a late, blindside hit on Oilers defenceman Darnell Nurse late in the first period. Marchment was challenged by…

If you’re an Edmonton Oilers fan who’s glued to the internet, you may have heard that the team could’ve drafted Jesper Wallstedt in 2021. Fans of the team have been reminded of it repeatedly over the past few weeks, as the young goaltender has had a strong start to his early NHL career for the…

Sometimes, you just have to tip your cap to the other guy for a job well done. That seems to be the case for the Edmonton Oilers, who played a strong game on Tuesday against the visiting Minnesota Wild but fell 1-0 because nothing is getting past Jesper Wallstedt right now. The 20th overall pick…

The Oilers had a fantastic afternoon in Seattle on Saturday, and that 4-0 shutout was probably their most complete effort at both ends of the rink that we’ve seen in a month or more. Now that the boys have a run of home games in front of them, we were all looking for them to…

We’ve seen some rough showings at home from the Edmonton Oilers early this season. In the span of a couple of weeks, they’ve taken a 9-1 loss to Colorado and an 8-3 drubbing from Dallas. Those games are hard to watch, and they are even harder to be a part of if you are in…

It was the most obvious shutout in NHL history. You could see it coming a mile away. Four years after the Edmonton Oilers passed on drafting him in the first round, Jesper Wallstedt made them pay, stopping all 33 shots he faced in the Minnesota Wild’s 1-0 win Tuesday night. Wallstedt was nothing short of…

Full marks to anyone who can identify the goaltender in question to the left. He played his last professional game in the ECHL during the 2023-24 season, but it appears he's trying to gain employment in that league again. If you're wondering, he's a former NHL netminder who played for three teams, but has just 40 games to his name despite those three stops. The 32 year-old was drafted 190th-overall in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, he won an AHL Calder Cup championship in 2017-18, and he's one of 2...
