The Stuart Skinner era in Edmonton is over. The Edmonton Oilers traded the goaltender to the Pittsburgh Penguins alongside Brett Kulak and a second-round pick in the 2029 draft in exchange for goaltender Tristan Jarry, and forward Samuel Poulin. The deal came as somewhat of a surprise Friday morning, as recent reports suggested the Oilers…
The other day, I had a question I was wondering about: How often does a team that’s .500 or worse in December manage to still make the playoffs? And I was surprised by what turned out to be the answer: All the time. No, literally, it happens every season. Going back to the 2013 lockout (and excluding the COVID season that didn’t start until January), at least one team that was .500 or worse in December has made the playoffs each and every season:

After laying an egg for 40 minutes against Buffalo and costing themselves the chance at a second point, the Edmonton Oilers were back in action for a rematch against the Detroit Red Wings. The Wings took the first game 4-2 back in October, and there was no better time than a frosty Thursday night in…
Through 31 games in the 2025-26 season, it hasn’t all been sunshine and rainbows for the Edmonton Oilers. They occupy the top Wild Card spot with a 14-11-6 record and 34 points. It’s as if they turned a corner, but then they had a rough game on Tuesday against the Buffalo Sabres, needing a third-period…

Recap of the game.
What a way to cap off the homestand. On Thursday evening, the Edmonton Oilers played their fifth and final game of the homestand, defeating the Detroit Red Wings 4-1 to move to 14-11-6 this season. With the win, the Oilers remain in a playoff position. The first 10 minutes of the opening flew by with…
Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded and edited, and it’s ready to help you wrap up the week.

The Edmonton Oilers made a slew of roster moves Thursday, recalling one and placing three on various injured reserves. The first move saw the team recall forward Max Jones from the AHL’s Bakersfield Condors. Acquired ahead of last year’s trade deadline from the Boston Bruins, Jones, 27, appeared in 19 games for the Oilers last…
Getting you set up for tonight’s Jets game.
The NHL, according to Commissioner Bettman, is still reviewing its options.
A victory tonight would make this five-game homestand a success for the Edmonton Oilers. They’d be 3-1-1 with a .600 winning percentage and .700 points percentage on this homestand. Currently, only three NHL teams have higher win percentages, and only three have a higher points percentage on home ice. The loss to the Buffalo Sabres…
The Edmonton Oilers host the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday night. The same Red Wings who are coming off a 4-3 win in Calgary. The same guys who played last night then travelled to Edmonton, only to play again tonight. Sound familiar? That’s because on Tuesday night, the Oilers faced Buffalo in the exact same…
The Hockey Show , Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, is back tonight with an emptier studio as just our hosts will descend upon the UMFM offices for the show. There will be some good hockey talk as they have a pile of stuff to go over from the last four weeks of shows where guests appeared, so it will be more of a rapid fire show tonight as our hosts try to get everyone caught up on all the news locally, nationally, and internationally that may have been misse...
It’s been a rough month to be Trent Frederic’s face. First, he got the rough end of Mathieu Oliver’s fists during a Nov. 10th fight when Frederic took on pound-for-pound toughest player in the league, getting a black eye in the process. Then, during Wednesday’s practice ahead of Thursday’s game against the Detroit Red Wings,…
For the second game in a row, the Edmonton Oilers’ opponents are coming off a game in Calgary the night before. The Detroit Red Wings roll into town after giving their fans the tightest of sphincters in the 3rd period. Alex DeBrincat had two goals and an assist, and Detroit were up 4-0 after 40…
In no way am I as talented as Richard Riehle in any way, shape, or form due to his portrayal of character Tom Smykowski in the 1999 film Office Space , but I feel like Tom Smykowski right now, though, as I read through the news reports that Dillon Dube, recently acquitted of sexual assault, has signed a PTO contract with the Springfield Thunderbirds under the direction of the St. Louis Blues. Let's drop the facade of the NHL having any moral standing of any kind because the Blues are the lates...
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
The trade winds have calmed down recently around the Edmonton Oilers. After the team picked up a few wins to start the month of December, fans haven’t been as adamant about management making a move to steer the ship in the right direction. When could fans anticipate a move? By the sounds of it, Oilers…
