Heckuva Night In Kennewick
If you've been reading this blog for a while, you know that I go out of my way to celebrate one of the rarer feats in hockey whenever and wherever it happens. The man to the left is the latest player to accomplish such a feat, and the rookie Tri-City Americans netminder also had himself one heckuva Wednesday. That player is Xavier Wendt from Plymouth, Minnesota - about 45 minutes east of Grand Casinos Arena in St. Paul, Minnesota - and the 17 year-old netminder hit a milestone and added his na...
Game 27: Winnipeg Jets vs Buffalo Sabres pre-game report
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
Connor McDavid’s hat trick, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins quietly solid, and Oilers getting more from Vasily Podkolzin
We didn’t have to wait long for the Oilers and Kraken to square off again after what was a spicy afternoon in Seattle on Saturday. That game started to boil over a little bit, and it was nice to see two Pacific Division teams getting fired up and getting after it. Ultimately, the better team…

No revenge for Seattle as Oilers hammer Kraken 9-4: Recap, Highlights, and Reaction
The Edmonton Oilers are back. On Thursday evening, the Oilers smashed the Seattle Kraken 9-4 in a much-needed win. The Oilers are now 12-11-5 this season with three more games on this five-game home stand. Just over seven minutes into the game, the Oilers took a 1-0 lead thanks to a short-side shot by Connor…
Real Life Podcast: The Dave Chappelle show disaster, Jay’s trip to New York, and job interviews
Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you wrap up the week. On today’s podcast, the guys discussed the Dave Chappelle show at Rogers Place, Jay’s new dad hat, his trip to New York, and more. The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real…

GDB 28.0: Oilers Need to Get Kraken (7 PM MT, SNW)
Good news Oilersnation: The Edmonton Oilers have played quite well in four of their last five games. Bad news: They only have two wins in those five games. The Oilers need to string together some wins, and Seattle is a team they need to beat. Their last five games saw them lose 2-1 in OT…
Winnipeg Jets prospect Brayden Yager shining in first season with Moose
From a small rink in Saskatchewan to the big stage in Winnipeg, Yager’s rise is just getting started.
Scenes From Morning Skate: Pickard gets the start despite Skinner’s recent performance
Calvin Pickard is starting on Thursday against the Seattle Kraken, and it’s about time. Not because Stuart Skinner has been bad—he hasn’t. That shutout against Seattle five days ago was his best performance of the season. He was solid against Minnesota. And he’s been giving the Oilers a chance to win lately, which is exactly…
The Hockey Show - Episode 689
The Hockey Show , Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, is back in the studio where we can avoid Alberta clippers and other weather systems that may be raging outside as the Great White North gets a little whiter. It's the perfect season for hockey around these parts, and we're going to talk to a guest tonight whose experiences have taken her from player to coach to advocate, and we'll hear about some of the challenges she faces in building provincial and nationa...
Surely the NHL won’t use Italy rink concerns as a reason pull players from Olympics… right?
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…
Pre-Scout: Kraken coming off days of practice eyeing revenge against Oilers
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…

Recap of the game.
Jets settle for a single point as they lose final game of road trip 3-2 in a SO to Habs
Recap of the game.
We're Not Influencers, But...
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,...
Better Lait Than Never: No one wants to talk about Oilers silver linings after losses but I do
It’s been another wild week around here with the Oilers rollercoaster making another loop, and I’ve got a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never ready to recap it all. On today’s podcast, I talked about whether the Oilers are turning the corner, kept up with the goalie rumours, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins’ return, and much more….

WWYDW: Will the NHL still go to the Olympics?
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…
Edmonton’s defensive game is improving, but the offence is a work in progress
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…
Oilers notebook: Kraken’s Mason Marchment out for Thursday rematch, Nugent-Hopkins returns to top line
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…
