GDB 34.0: Revenge Games and 1,000th Point Potential (5:30 PM, SN)

Ask Dubey: Should the NHL use a three-point system?

It was an interesting week for the Edmonton Oilers. They pulled the trigger on a couple of trades, bringing in Tristan Jarry and Spencer Stastney while shipping out Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak. The team followed that up with a big win in Toronto and an ugly loss in Montreal. With that, let’s get to…

What do the Oilers have in their newest prospect Samuel Poulin?

Last Friday, the Edmonton Oilers sent out Stuart Skinner, Brett Kulak, and a 2029 second-round pick in exchange for Tristan Jarry and former 2019 first-rounder Samuel Poulin. While all eyes were on Jarry in his debut win in Edmonton colours Saturday night, Samuel Poulin also had a strong debut with the Bakersfield Condors that night,…

Oilers’ Connor McDavid named NHL First Star of the Week

One of the game’s greats continues to rack up the honours.

In four games, he posted four goals and…

Hutson, 23, who signed with the Oilers last spring, has appeared in 24 games this season, scoring 16 goals and 28 points, leading all AHL rookies in both marks. He also leads all AHL…

Oilers Could Look At More Specific Additions Later In The Season

The Edmonton Oilers made moves trading out Stuart Skinner and Brett Kulak to bring in Tristan Jarry and Spencer Stastney. This addressed issues now and in the future, while also getting younger on the back-end for cheaper. The Oilers aren't done making moves, and while it makes sense to also move out Calvin Pickard now, more may be available at the trade deadline for Edmonton. David Pagnotta said, "I think they're going to explore adding later on in the season...from a defensive perspective, w...

Jarry Could Make Bid For Team Canada If Oilers Dominate

Team Canada is going to be exciting and interesting with many of the decisions. All of the players who were there last year for 4 Nations are not guaranteed to be back. There will likely be a couple of changes at every position - forward, defense, goalie - but there are plenty of goalies who could be in the mix as Canadians have played well in net this season. At the 4 Nations Faceoff, Jordan Binnington, Adin Hill, and Sam Montembeault all went, but those three just don't have the numbers to w...

The risk of acquiring Tristan Jarry

Stan Bowman hasn’t been afraid to pull the trigger since becoming the Edmonton Oilers’ general manager. He was thrown directly into the fire with the Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg offer sheets, but still managed to come out ahead by acquiring Ty Emberson and Vasily Podkolzin. Bowman has continued to tweak his roster, bringing in…

Penguins Could Be Set To Flip Stuart Skinner

If some accounts around the league are correct, it feels like Stuart Skinner's stay in Pittsburgh could be a short one.  Skinner was acquired by the Penguins along with defenseman Brett Kulak from the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for Tristan Jarry. But that still leaves the Pens with four viable goaltenders in the system. Skinner, with an expiring $2.6 million cap hit, could be used by the Penguins to acquire another young asset. Insider Frank Seravalli explains , on the Panthers Insider p...

NHL weekend rankings: A wild Friday shakes up the league, and our Top 5

December can be a boring month in the NHL. Opening night optimism is a faded memory, the deadline is still months away, the playoff picture is jumbled, and not much is happening. And then, every once in a while, we get a day like Friday. We got one of the biggest midseason blockbusters in years, with the Quinn Hughes trade to Minnesota . We got the long-awaited Oilers goalie trade, with Tristan Jarry coming over from the Penguins . Oh, and before those two deals dropped, we also found out that...

Bottom Six Minutes: Jakub Dobeš returns to the net with confidence

After a two-game stretch where the Montreal Canadiens went 1-0-1 with rookie goaltender Jacob Fowler between the pipes, they went back to one of their regulars on Sunday night. Taking on Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers at home, Jakub Dobeš got his first start since being pulled during their blowout loss to Tampa Bay last Tuesday. The hope was that perhaps a bit of time off would give him a chance to reset and find his form from earlier in the season. He did precisely that, looking ...
