After three straight disappointing losses, Edmonton Oilers superstar Leon Draisaitl absolutely went off on his coaches, teammates, goalies, and anyone else associated with the disappointing run they've been on. He did not hold back.

We’re now living in a timeline where Artemi Panarin is in the Pacific Division, after the Los Angeles Kings acquired him from the New York Rangers and signed him to a contract extension. It was only 10 years ago when he and Connor McDavid were battling it out for the Calder Trophy, but in the…
The NHL’s Olympic break couldn’t come any sooner in Edmonton. With Wednesday’s 4-3 loss to the Calgary Flames, the Oilers are now mired in a three-game losing streak and have just one regulation win in their last eight games. The latest version of the same old problem? The penalty kill can’t stop anything. If the…
The Edmonton Oilers entered Wednesday night’s game against the Calgary Flames with one goal in mind: get a win before the Olympic break. The best they could do was muster up a 4-3 loss, and for one of their leaders, Leon Draisaitl, to call out the goaltenders, the coaching staff, and the team as a…
Things have gotten tense for the Edmonton Oilers. Heading into January, the team stared down an eight-game homestand they hoped to take advantage of, only to fall flat, going 4-4. The penultimate game of the stand, a 7-3 loss to the Minnesota Wild, saw netminder Tristan Jarry’s post-game comments take aim at his teammates. “I…
The Edmonton Oilers front office went to work immediately after Wednesday’s loss to the Calgary Flames, assigning two players to the Bakersfield Condors. Josh Samanski and Calvin Pickard have been sent down to the AHL, the club announced, but whether either will play there remains to be seen. The #Oilers have assigned forward Josh Samanski…
The Edmonton Oilers are dropping points to bad teams. On Wednesday evening, the Oilers played their final game against the Calgary Flames this season, falling 4-3 to head into the Olympic break. Let’s take a look at what went on in this one. The first period was full of penalties. Calgary received the first one,…
The Edmonton Oilers’ inconsistent regular-season play continued again last night in a 5-2 loss to Toronto. The Oilers had stretches where they controlled the game and generated many quality looks, however, the lack of focus at key points in the game cost them again. Toronto scored nine seconds after Edmonton tied the game, and then…
The Artemi Panarin saga has ended in New York with the Russian winger reportedly being traded to the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday afternoon, ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Emily Kaplan reported. Former Edmonton Oilers general manager Ken Holland, now with the Kings, swung the deal ahead of the NHL’s trade freeze, set for 1 pm…
The Edmonton Oilers went 4-4 over a homestand that could’ve pushed them into first place in the Pacific Division. Instead, they got smoked 5-2 by the Toronto Maple Leafs at Rogers Place last night. Now they’re heading to the Saddledome for one more game before the Olympic break. Winning in Calgary won’t erase the frustration…
Welp…that sucks. Don’t fret, though, Edmonton Oilers fans. Soon, you too will get a break from this team, a much-needed and much-deserved break at that. However, if you crave one more game – the 58th of the NHL regular season already – well, the Battle of Alberta is tonight. After an important homestand finishes 4-4,…
The Edmonton Oilers wrapped up their longest homestand of the season on Tuesday with a 5-2 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs, closing the door on an eight-game stretch that offered far more uncertainty than clarity. The result, much like the homestand itself, felt like a missed chance. Another mid-pack opponent arriving in Edmonton on…
Oilers, Leafs. Leafs, Oilers. They’re games that always bring a big, split, noisy crowd to Rogers Place, and it was no different Tuesday night, with competing chants all three periods. The energy was nothing short of fantastic, and it’s a shame the Leafs are so far from being a Stanley Cup contender, because an all-Canadian…
With the Olympic break about to slam the door on roster movement, the Edmonton Oilers and Toronto Maple Leafs are suddenly getting tied together in a surprising place: Brandon Carlo . On Elliotte Friedman ’s 32 Thoughts , the word is Edmonton may have at least explored Carlo’s availability, even if the league feedback sounds split between “yeah, I heard that too” and “no chance,” according to Friedman. Why Carlo is popping up in Edmonton’s orbit The Carlo chatter surfaced while Fried...
Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 5-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers, which improved the Maple Leafs’ record to 27-21-9. On the keys to success in the game: Highly competitive tonight. Right from the get-go, we were highly competitive, our goalie was good, and our special teams were really good. On Jake McCabe’s […] The post Craig Berube on the Leafs entering the Olympic break with three straight wins: “It’s a lot of confidence… I’m proud of our team and the way they competed o...
Coming off an embarrassing 7-3 loss, the Edmonton Oilers were once again beaten by a team on the second half of a back-to-back. On Tuesday evening, the Oilers hosted the Toronto Maple Leafs in the penultimate game before the Olympic break, with the Oilers dropping this one 5-2. Let’s take a look at what happened…
It’s Tuesday afternoon, and there’s a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today’s episode, the guys discussed the Oilers’ record against the best teams, Connor McDavid’s Players’ Tribune article, Calvin Pickard clearing waivers, and much more. We kicked off…
Note the start time.
It’s a “schedule loss” situation if there ever was one for the Maple Leafs against a rested Oilers team, but can they get something out of the final game before the Olympic break? (8:30 p.m. EST, Sportsnet) Game Day Quotes Connor McDavid on the final Leafs vs. Oilers matchup of the season: It is always […] The post Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Edmonton Oilers – Game #57 Projected Lines, Preview & TV Info appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .
Andrew Mangiapane is drawing into the Edmonton Oilers lineup tonight, replacing Curtis Lazar. And if you’re an Oilers fan reading that sentence, you’re probably groaning. If you’re a player in that locker room, you might be doing the same. This is a begrudging pill to swallow. Lazar’s been playing well. He’s embraced the fourth-line minutes,…
The Edmonton Oilers and Toronto Maple Leafs only play each other twice a year. They’ve never met in the playoffs, yet both fanbases dislike one another, and any time the Maple Leafs and Oilers play, the hype leading up to the games is higher than most opponents. I think it’s awesome. Sports are better where…
When news broke that the New York Rangers wouldn’t be signing Artemi Panarin to a contract extension, instead looking to find him a new home, it was reasonable to dismiss the idea of the Edmonton Oilers trading for him. An $11.6 million cap hit was the obvious roadblock for the Oilers, but so too was…
Only an 8:30 start, that barely counts as late.
This Connor McDavid vs. Auston Matthews matchup tonight doesn’t feel like others. It’s been usurped by trade speculation surrounding Bobby McMann. It also won’t hit the same because it’s been a season from hell for the Toronto Maple Leafs as they come to town to face the Edmonton Oilers. That franchise is at a crossroads,…
