There was a delay on this article thanks to Mother Nature interfering with the schedule set out by Canada West. Regina and Saskatchewan were forced to play the second game in their two-game set on Sunday as a winter storm swept into the rectangular province, and full credit to the two teams for not putting anyone at risk by travelling when it wasn't ideal. As such, this article was on pause when it came to being published until those teams got that final contest of the weekend in, but let's se...

As soon as some of my colleagues and fellow fans uttered the phrase, “Is this the best Edmonton Oilers goaltending since…” Tristan Jarry has looked suspicious. Sorry Bordzy. We remember the Edmonton Oilers back-to-back shutouts from Jarry and Connor Ingram on January 17 and 18. In the six games since, the Oilers’ have surrendered 27…

The Edmonton Oilers have made a decision in the goaltending department, placing netminder Calvin Pickard on NHL waivers Sunday, the club announced. Pickard, 33, found himself as the Oilers’ third-goaltender in recent weeks when Tristan Jarry returned from injury. He appeared in 16 games this season, posting a 5-6-2 record, a .871 save percentage and…

Multiple top-nine forwards left the Edmonton Oilers organization this past summer, with names such as Connor Brown, Corey Perry, Viktor Arvidsson, Jeff Skinner, and more. It seemed that management decided to primarily bank on internal growth to offset those departures, particularly from prospects Matthew Savoie and Isaac Howard. The Oilers added only one notable, established…

It’s becoming increasingly clear that the class of the Western Conference resides in the Central Division. The Minnesota Wild took care of business in Edmonton on Saturday night, handling the Oilers in a 7-3 win and completing a regular-season sweep in the process. After a tight opening frame that saw the two teams trade goals,…

Was anyone else not surprised that it took an all-world comeback for the Oilers to finally win their third game in a row? This team is ridiculous, and it only made sense for them to get the monkey off their back in the most impossible way imaginable. Down three goals to winning in overtime. If…

Squaring up with the Minnesota Wild has never been an easy task for the Edmonton Oilers. Such was the case on Saturday night, as they erased a 2-1 deficit to beat the Oilers 7-3, now improving to 10-4 at Rogers Place since it opened a decade ago. Despite Edmonton’s solid start to the game, building…

Some think being a professional athlete is glamorous, especially in the big leagues. They think everyone is pampered and taken care of, getting paid to play a simple game. Yet, they seem to forget that these athletes are human, too. Edmonton Oilers goaltender Connor Ingram is a prime example of how, sometimes, even someone who’s…

The Edmonton Oilers are coming off one of the wildest wins of the season, but tonight feels like a very different test. On their 10th try, the Oilers finally strung together three straight wins with that absurd 4-3 overtime comeback against the Sharks on Thursday, and while two points are two points, the way they…

I'll be fully honest in saying that I don't follow the CHL or its respective leagues likely as much as I did when the Winnipeg Ice were still a team. The Ice gave a reason to check in on the WHL and the other leagues under the CHL's umbrella, but I admittedly have not being doing that since they relocated to Wenatchee. Having spent the day in Brandon, it got me thinking that I should do more, and then social media got into the act tonight as several accounts posted the same clip from the OHL t...

Maybe Edmonton Oilers fans can resonate with this quote from Minnesota Wild coach Jon Hynes. “The one thing I will say is that when you go through 82 games, they’re not all gonna be Picassos, right?” said Hynes. Right you are, Mr. Hynes. Both teams would approach this ethos from different angles after their last…
