Scenes From Morning Skate: Oilers continue to navigate injury woes
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins won’t play tonight against the Dallas Stars. Kasperi Kapanen likely won’t either. And while missing two forwards against a quality opponent like Dallas isn’t ideal, there’s a case to be made that sitting them out is the right call. The Edmonton Oilers have been managing injuries and roster issues all season. Nugent-Hopkins has…
Winnipeg Jets Practice Report
The Jets will practice in Winnipeg before heading on the road for five games.
NHL Notebook: Canucks open for business making veterans available — but not Quinn Hughes
The Vancouver Canucks are open for business. That’s the message sent around the league, according to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, who reported Monday night the team is making veteran players available “in an effort to get younger.” One veteran player who remains off limits, however, is defenceman Quinn Hughes, who is slated to hit unrestricted free agency…
A look at Evan Bouchard’s bounce-back month for the Oilers
After struggling out of the gate with countless turnovers, blown defensive coverage, and a lack of production, Evan Bouchard has flipped the script in November. He caught fire over the past month, driving offence and cutting down on mistakes. The turnaround didn’t come under easy conditions, either. Edmonton just slogged through a gruelling seven-game road…
Winnipeg Jets recall Elias Salomonsson from the Manitoba Moose
The first ever recall for the top Jets D prospect.
Pre-Scout: Oilers can capitalize on bruised Dallas Stars lineup
The Dallas Stars will be without their top weapon — both offensively and physically — during their first visit to Edmonton since last season’s Western Conference Final. That was Game 4 of a quick work series for the Oilers, of course, and the Stars laid their revenge on Edmonton back on Nov. 4 in a…

Team of the Week: Wisconsin
Wisconsin didn't come into this season with the same kind of flashy, blue-chip (and in some cases nowadays, expensive) players that go high on draft boards. Instead, it chose to attempt a turnaround from last year's disappointing 13-win season the more traditional way — straightforward recruiting. When the doors opened to major junior players, coach Mike Hastings and his staff stuck with the players...
Maine D Langlois Released From Hospital

Six Nights Of Orange
If there's one thing you should know while reading this blog, it's that I, Teebz, am not a doctor nor do I play one on TV. I'm not even qualified to give anyone tap water when they're thirsty, but I do know that the medical professionals across North America save a lot of lives each and every day with their talents and knowledge. What might get lost in the shuffle is that there are a lot of good organizations raising funds for research and assistance for a number of maladies and diseases that ...
Today In NHL History - Ryan O'Byrne's Own Goal
On November 24th in 2008, Montreal Canadiens blueliner Ryan O'Byrne played the puck into his own net during a delayed penalty, tying up the game for the New York Islanders with five minutes remaining in the third period. O'Byrne's own goal was credited to Islanders captain Bill Guerin, who subsequently sealed the 4-3 win with his third round shootout score as the Habs faithful taunted a dejected
Top 100 Oilers: No. 61 — Ken Linseman
Oilersnation is reviving the Top 100 Edmonton Oilers of All Time list, a project originally created by the late Robin Brownlee in 2015. Ken Linseman comes in at No. 61 on our updated 2025 list. He was ranked No. 41 on Brownlee’s original list. Through the some 130 years of competition for the Stanley Cup, there’s…
Monday Musings: Oilers show signs of life, good and bad starts, and more
The Edmonton Oilers survived — barely — their toughest stretch of the season. They played 24 games in 46 days with 16 of them on the road, and they accumulated 25 points. That’s not great, not even very good, but with only one game in the next five days, the team will be able to…
Manitoba Moose Practice Report

Stars’ Mikko Rantanen to serve one-game suspension during Tuesday game against Oilers
When the Dallas Stars take to the ice in Edmonton for Tuesday’s game against the Oilers, they’ll do so without star forward Mikko Rantanen. The high-flying winger, twice traded last year before landing in the Big D last March, was handed an automatic one-game suspension by the league after being ejected from his second game…
Vasily Podkolzin’s emerging leadership with Oilers and a chat with his skills coach Ned Lukacevic
In a season where consistency has been hard to come by for the Edmonton Oilers, Vasily Podkolzin’s steady play has been one of the few things they can rely on. Spend a few minutes chatting with Oilers fans around the city, and you’ll hear plenty of praise for ‘Podz’ and his work ethic. Edmonton, being…
Five positive takeaways from the Oilers’ gruelling road trip
The Edmonton Oilers are finally out of their gauntlet of a road trip, going 3-3-1 in seven games, which, all things considered, isn’t bad given just how tough the trip was. But alas, it’s over. The Oilers battled their way through that two-week Eastern trip and now get to play six of their next seven…

If you’re American, this is Thanksgiving week. There’s a good chance that you’re making plans to see friends and family. You might be travelling, in which case we wish you the best of luck with all that. By Thursday, if all goes well, you’ll have a belly full of turkey and a full slate of NFL games to doze to. If you’re a Canadian, you’re probably busy panicking about your NHL team. For our purposes, that second group is more interesting than the first. So let’s take a quick tour around the co...

Trading down at the 2021 NHL Draft has been a disaster for the Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers often tend to shoot themselves in the foot when it comes to trades. Look no further than the Griffin Reinhart trade at the 2015 NHL Draft. The Oilers sent the 16th and 33rd overall picks to the New York Islanders for a young defender struggling in the American Hockey League. At the…
Today In NHL History - Pettersson Hit by Candy
On November 23rd in 2022, Vancouver Canucks forward Elias Pettersson was hit in the back by a bag of candy thrown by a frustrated Colorado Avalanche fan in the final minute of regulation time with their team shorthanded and trailing by a goal.While the type of candy remains a mystery, early guesses leaned towards gummy bears, sours or jelly beans. Regardless, tossing anything on
