I’ll never forget the wise words my friend, a recovering alcoholic, said after Edmonton’s 9-1 loss to Colorado, where he heard many suggest that was rock bottom for the Oilers: “It can always get worse. Until you choose and commit to change, rock bottom can keep happening over and over again,” he said. Edmonton lost…

It was another night in Edmonton where the fans left feeling disappointed. Disappointed, and more so frustrated, with how this rollercoaster of a season has begun.

The Edmonton Oilers were finally back at Rogers Place for a rematch against the Dallas Stars after spending the last two weeks on the road and closing out the trip with a 3-3-1 record. You would think sleeping in their own beds and not living out of suitcases would help the boys play with some…
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
Just when you thought the Edmonton Oilers might be turning a corner, they show just how far they are from doing so. The team returned to Rogers Place for the National Hockey League’s lone game Tuesday night, only to put up another stinker in front of not just their own fans at home, but the…
The Edmonton Oilers’ goaltending situation has become untenable. They entered Tuesday night’s game against the Dallas Stars with a team save percentage of .866, the second-worst mark in the league, which only got worse as the team got embarrassed in an 8-3 loss. Edmonton reportedly wants to give goaltenders Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard another…

The first year under Miami head coach Anthony Noreen was nothing short of a struggle, with just three wins last season. Of course, he was starting over for a program that had already fallen on hard times. Time was needed...
One step forward, two steps back. After showing signs of life in their past three games, the Edmonton Oilers put up a dud against the Dallas Stars on Tuesday evening, falling 8-3.

What will it take to see a shakeup between the pipes for the Edmonton Oilers? So far this season, the team’s tandem of Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard has gotten off to an abysmal start, both below a .900 SV% and above a 3.00 GAA. With that in mind, fans have been screaming for something…

Recap of the game.
Evan Bouchard has been the Edmonton Oilers’ best player in the month of November. After a sluggish October that saw him produce three assists five-on-five and get outscored 11-5, Bouchard has cranked up his play, and he’s been excellent in November. Through 12 games this month, he’s produced 1-8-9 at five-on-five, and with him on…
The top-4 Dman was skating on his own ahead of practice.
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…

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…
The first ever recall for the top Jets D prospect.
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…
