On Saturday, the Edmonton Oilers play the Los Angeles Kings for the first time this season. No doubt, the Kings are upset about their fourth consecutive series defeat at the hands of the Oilers. Last year, they were oh so close, but blew a 2-0 series lead with late leads in Games 3 and 4….
NHL teams continue to kick tires on Oilers’ disgruntled forward Andrew Mangiapane. The Edmonton Oilers scratched Mangiapane for the second straight game on Thursday, a 4-3 comeback win over the Winnipeg Jets. But is a deal imminent? It doesn’t appear so. There is interest, but the inner workings of a trade haven’t been fleshed out…
Evander Kane back to the Edmonton Oilers? That’s what the Vancouver Canucks tried to make happen, only for the Oilers to shoot any suggestion dead in the water. The report came from Donnie and Dhali’s Rick Dhaliwal, who reported the news on Friday on Sportsnet 650’s Halford and Brough in the Morning. Here’s what Dhaliwal had to…
In the 2023 season, the Edmonton Oilers did it on their first try. In 2024, it also occurred on their first attempt. In 2025, it took them four tries, and tomorrow night against the Los Angeles Kings, the Oilers will go for it on their eighth attempt. We are talking about the elusive three-game winning…
This week, top Edmonton Oilers goaltending prospect Samuel Jonsson was named to the ECHL All-Star Game. HERE ARE THE 2026 ALL-STARS
Times are tough in Winnipeg. Last year’s Central Division champions, who cruised through the regular season to a 56-22-4 record, have fallen off a cliff. The Oilers handed the Jets their 11th straight loss Thursday night at Canada Life Centre. After the home side jumped out to a 3-1 first-period lead, Edmonton flipped the script,…
After picking up their first win in 2026 on Tuesday over the Predators, the Edmonton Oilers were back on the road for a single stop in Winnipeg for a rematch against the struggling Jets. And while it didn’t start out well for our beloved Oilers, you have to give the boys credit for how they…
Recap of the game.
For only the fourth time this season, the Edmonton Oilers have won a game after allowing the first goal. On Thursday evening, the Oilers made a long bus trip to Winnipeg to face the Jets for the third and final time this season, defeating the last-placed team 4-3. With the win, they have a 22-16-6…
With the holidays over, and the Olympic break looming, we’re officially into trade season. How do we know? Well, because trades are happening! Okay, so Laurent Brossoit for Jake Furlong isn’t exactly a blockbuster, but it does get things rolling, right? With the trade deadline less than two weeks after everyone is back from the Olympics, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that general managers will want to get things done before the break. Although the standings are still kind of co...
Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded and edited, and it’s ready to help you wrap up the week. On today’s podcast, the guys discussed Christmas delays, sports rink advertising, the World Juniors, and more. The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about Christmas delays…
Last summer was an interesting one for the Edmonton Oilers. Everyone remembers the beginning of the 2024 off-season, when the Oilers were able to re-sign Adam Henrique, Mattias Janmark, Corey Perry, and Connor Brown, while also adding Jeff Skinner and Viktor Arvidsson. It was praised in the moment, but it became detrimental to long-term success…
Sports is, and always will be, the best “reality TV” show. Games can be unpredictable, frustrating, riveting, boring or pulsating depending on the day or the opponent. Some outcomes are expected, but upsets happen regularly, and performances can vary from electric to horrific, and sometimes those occur in the same game. The season of the…
The Edmonton Oilers play the Winnipeg Jets Thursday night, and look, the Oilers haven’t exactly been rolling — they still haven’t strung together three consecutive wins — but at least they’re not in freefall like their opponents. The Jets are riding a 10-game losing streak and looking to avoid making it 11 straight. Perspective, folks….
“The talks continue.” That’s what David Pagnotta told us on Oilersnation Everyday on January 7th, regarding the future of Edmonton Oilers Andrew Mangiapane. Kris Knoblauch has opted to healthy scratch him for the Winnipeg Jets game on December 29th, and in three of the Oilers’ last four games, including tonight’s game against the Jets. His…
It is clear that the Edmonton Oilers are planning on moving on from Andrew Mangiapane this season, and the veteran with a no-trade clause, would be willing to waive it to get a better opportunity somewhere else. David Pagnotta had reported, "Andrew Mangiapane would prefer to move to a contender, but he is open to the 'best fit' for him. The Ducks, Red Wings, and Jets are just three of the teams the Oilers are believed to have spoken to." The Anaheim Ducks have plenty of cap space and are in a ...
The season is slipping through the Winnipeg Jets‘ fingers. Make it 10 straight losses for Winnipeg after a 4-3 overtime loss to the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night. The Jets blew a late 3rd period lead before Tomas Hertl ended the game on the power play with just 13 seconds left. “I think we…

It hasn’t been an easy first half of the season for Kasperi Kapanen. He had played in just six games before injuring his knee on October 19th against the Detroit Red Wings, and when he was nearing a return in November, he suffered a setback in practice. He left the ice in frustration, taking it…
The definition of frustration is the feeling of being upset or annoyed, especially when you can’t change or achieve something — a feeling many fans in Oil Country know all too well with Kris Knoblauch’s constant line shuffling as of late. But Tuesday’s game against the Nashville Predators, that frustration turned to joy, as the…
