Latest news and updates about the Oilers
The rough starts for the Edmonton Oilers are nothing new. For the past couple of years, the team from Alberta’s capital has struggled out of the gate, but managed to turn it into deep playoff runs, including advancing to each of the past two Stanley Cup Finals. However, there’s a growing sense that this year…
After pissing away what looked like a sure thing against the St. Louis Blues on Monday, the Edmonton Oilers were back on the ice in Dallas to close out the second half of their back-to-back. And while we all knew beating the Stars would be a tall task, what I didn’t expect was to watch…
The Edmonton Oilers may just be living proof that a two-goal lead is the worst lead in hockey. For the fourth time this season — and a night after doing so against the St. Louis Blues — the team coughed up such a lead, going on to lose. Last night it was against the Dallas…
Another game, another blown lead, and another loss for the Edmonton Oilers. On Tuesday evening, the Oilers played the second game of a road back-to-back, falling 4-3 to the Dallas Stars in the shootout to move to 6-5-4 for the season. Let’s take a look at what went on in this game. The Oilers opened…
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’ inability to close games, Connor McDavid’s 1100th NHL point, Evan Bouchard’s struggles, and much more. We kicked off the Friday…
At least the Edmonton Oilers can say they are consistent. They lost in St. Louis last night due to the same repeated issues: lack of 5×5 scoring and a major defensive gaffe. Rinse, wash, repeat, although something did occur last night that has never happened once in the previous 11 seasons. Edmonton’s scoring woes at…
It is the most obvious hole on the Philadelphia Flyers lineup and it’s something that general manager Danny Briere clearly wants to address, and now might be the perfect time to do so. Scrolling down the lineup for the Flyers, their third defensive pairing on the blue line sticks out like the sorest of sore thumbs. Glowing red with the word “Yee-ouch!” animated over it, a rotating cast of characters like Noah Juulsen, Adam Ginning, Egor Zamula, and not until recently Emil Andrae, gives li...
The Edmonton Oilers have activated defenceman Alec Regula from the injured reserve, the club announced Tuesday. Regula last played in the Oilers’ second game of the regular season against the Vancouver Canucks, leaving the game shaken up after taking a pair of big hits from Evander Kane. Placed on the injured reserve on October 19th,…
Revenge may be on the minds of the Dallas Stars — if you believe in that type of emotional handicapping of a game. As you know, the Oilers ousted the Stars in back-to-back years in the Western Conference Final, forcing Dallas into a coaching change. That prompted the return of then-Oilers assistant Glen Gulutzan to…
The Edmonton Oilers have a goaltending problem, and it’s not to do with Stuart Skinner. In fact, Skinner has been stellar for the team this year — better than you may think — but more on that later. Front of mind, however, is Calvin Pickard’s performance Monday night against the St. Louis Blues, where he…
After taking care of the Blackhawks on Saturday at Rogers Place, the Edmonton Oilers hit the road for a quick two-game trip that started Monday in St. Louis against the Blues. For whatever reason, the schedule makers dropped these two random road games to start the week, and then the Oilers won’t play again until…
The Edmonton Oilers and Carolina Hurricanes are in the same mindset of going for a Stanley Cup this season, but early on, they are in different places in terms of adding or moving off of players. The Oilers have managed thus far with some injured players, but as those players get healthy, they will be looking to move at least one player out. The Hurricanes, on the other hand, have had to fill their very injured team with rookies and are looking to bring in more experience for the time being. F...

Once again, the Edmonton Oilers blew a multi-goal lead. On Monday evening, the Oilers began a two-game, Central Division road trip with a matchup against Phillip Broberg, Dylan Holloway, and the St. Louis Blues. They fell 3-2 in the final two minutes, moving their record to 6-5-3. Let’s take a look at what went wrong…
It’s safe to say that Jack Roslovic has settled into life as an Edmonton Oiler. Early in his time in Edmonton, he got a taste of the line blender as Kris Knoblauch and co. tried to find the right fit for the winger. Consider it found, as Roslovic has seemed to find a home on…
The St. Louis Blues haven’t won a game since October 18th. They are 0-5-2 in their last seven games and 3-7-2 all season. They’ve been outscored 50-34. They rank last in goals against at 4.17/game and they’ve allowed a league-high 34 goals 5×5. Their defensive game and goaltending are in shambles. They are 0-7-1 when…
The Edmonton Oilers have been linked to Kiefer Sherwood thanks to Edmonton Journal insider David Staples , who amplified Bob Stauffer’s on-air speculation that Sherwood could be an ideal middle-six target if the Vancouver Canucks cannot extend him. The appeal is obvious for the Oilers: Sherwood’s contract sits at a tidy $1.5 million AAV, he delivered a career-best 19 goals and 40 points in 2024–25, and he has erupted with nine goals in his first 12 games this season. Add a heavy fo...
