The End Of A Forgettable Era
It became official today: the Buffalo Sabres will break their streak of fourteen seasons without appearing the playoffs thanks to the Pittsburgh Penguins defeating the Florida Panthers, officially eliminating the two-time defending champions from the playoffs.

They won't see the Flyers this year,...

The Edmonton Oilers have a chance to do something they’ve never done before: sweep their season series against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Pre-Scout: Oilers hope to lead Golden Knights on Easter goose-egg hunt
Adam Henrique had skated far enough to reach Mannville, Alberta since his last goal. That’s if you combine all the kilometres Henrique skated in his Edmonton Oilers appearances since October 23 on his 50-game goalless drought, roughly 172 clicks, and if he elected to travel due east on Highway 16. Henrique has more games played…

The strengths and weaknesses of the Oilers’ potential first-round opponents
With just two weeks remaining in the NHL’s regular season, the Edmonton Oilers have all but locked up their place in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for a sixth-straight season. Their magic number to clinch currently sits at just six points. They’ll need some combination of just three wins in their final six games or three…
Does That Need Capitalization?
I know there likely aren't a lot of people across Canada who keep up with ECHL signings, but it's always cool to see a former U SPORTS player getting his shot with a professional team. For some, they've gone to the ECHL before landing in U SPORTS, but former Golden Bears defender Aidan De La Gorgendiere went full circle with a stop in the ECHL before playing with the University of Alberta followed by a jump to the NCAA with the University of Nebraska-Omaha Mavericks. He signed with the ECHL's ...

How to make sense of a nonsensical NHL season? Just follow the chain of blowouts
How do you know if one NHL team is better than another? We used to thank that that was a relatively simple question. You could just look at the standings, and they’d tell you who was good and who wasn’t. That was kind of the standings page’s whole job. But that was before the league started handing out points for losing ( or did they ?), encouraging everyone to play for overtime during the regular season and basically making a team’s won-loss record all but useless on its own. And that’s in a ...
Adam Henrique on the board, Tristan Jarry solid, and the Oilers are tied for first in the Pacific Division
You know what’s cooler than the Oilers winning three straight games? Four games. Know what’s cooler than the Oilers winning for straight games? You guessed it. Five. Five straight games.
