Pre-Scout: Capitals face the Oilers after snapping losing skid, battling inconsistency
Typically, when the team you play next is on a back-to-back, you want to see them win the first game before they face you. The adage being they’re more likely to come out flat, perhaps too satisfied, with the first victory and don’t have the same juice against you. The Edmonton Oilers have been busting…
Record-Setting Goal
The goaltender to the left may not be well-known, but that's only because he hasn't worn that jersey very often. Carter George will, one day, be a member of the Los Angeles Kings based on how well he stops pucks, but he's currently adjusting to life in Sault Ste. Marie where he's playing with th Greyhounds. The Owen Sound Attack traded him to the Soo in exchange for seven OHL Priority Selection picks two weeks ago after the World Junior Championship ended, and he it appears he's right at home ...
Oilers prospect Connor Ungar has had nothing but success playing for four teams in two leagues this season
Connor Ungar has had quite the season. He wasn’t able to participate in training camp due to an injury, and he didn’t get an opportunity to compete.

The Oilers are playing like they hate the regular season
With how the Edmonton Oilers are playing, they believe the regular season is too long. It’s tedious. Annoying. Although silent, I’m sure there’s some contempt. “We have to play 82 of these damn games?” someone might have said in the dressing room. Yes, fellas – 82 of them. Largely, I agree. Regular seasons are loooooong. …

From Draisaitl to McDavid and fighting: catching up with Vasily Podkolzin’s skills coach Ned Lukacevic
The Edmonton Oilers’ play have been up and down during their recent stretch of games, but one constant has been the impactful play of forward Vasily Podkolzin.

Flashback Friday: The Oilers’ seven trades with the Capitals
On Saturday evening, the Edmonton Oilers play the Washington Capitals for the second time in 2025-26. The two teams don’t have a lot of overlapping history.

Welcome back, traitor: Remembering six of the ugliest receptions for returning stars
It’s been a week of returns in the NHL. On Monday, we saw Jonathan Toews’ first game back in Chicago, returning to the city where we won three Cups as a visitor for the very first time. The fans gave him a hero’s welcome , the sort of outpouring of emotion you rarely see in the sports world. It was a collective “thank you” to a player who meant so much to a franchise and its fan base. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJQTNxj0p3o Tonight, Mitch Marner will return to Toronto, and the reception wi...
An all-time bad start for the Oilers, the rest wasn’t any better, but at least Leon Draisaitl came back
The Oilers were starting back at zero in their quest for three straight wins, and the first step to trying to make that happen would be to beat the Penguins as they roll into Edmonton on the second half of a back-to-back set. Of course, this was the same scenario the boys were in two…
