Matt Savoie is back with Leon Draisaitl and Vasily Podkolzin on the second line, while Jack Roslovic is centring the third line between Mattias Janmark and Trent Frederic.

You could call it a freefall. In the span of a few months, the Winnipeg Jets have gone from a first-place President’s Trophy regular season to today, where on December 29th, they sit just one point out of 32nd place.

With three nights off last week, we didn’t have as many games as usual this week. That means that our rankings won’t move all that much from last time. And more importantly, it means fewer opportunities to learn anything new. That’s bad news for me, because there are a handful of teams where I need all the information I can get, because I just can’t figure them out. I’m not clueless about absolutely everyone. I know that the Avalanche are good, and that the Blackhawks are bad, and that all of ...

Saturday night was one where hard work defeated skill as the Edmonton Oilers and Calgary Flames collided for the second time in a week. The Flames’ fourth line ran the Oilers’ show, as Edmonton’s bottom-six may as well have stayed at home to eat leftover Christmas dinner. While the stars did show up for the…

Crossbar. Bar. Bar. Post. That and some disengaged second-period play cost the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday night against their arch-rival Calgary Flames in a 3-2 loss. And wouldn’t you know it — for the seventh time this regular season, the Oilers failed to win a third consecutive game. It’s not hard to see why. If…

We are firmly entrenched in the holiday season, exams are over, players are preparing for the second half of the season, and teams will be looking at their schedules when it comes to where they need to make up ground, win key games, and potentially lock up playoff spots. The Canada West season has given us just one team who already knows they'll be playing in late February, so there are opportunities for eight other teams to make a push in this second half. Today, we'll look at what each team ...

Throughout the past two regular seasons at five-on-five, Leon Draisaitl’s most common forward linemate has not been Connor McDavid. It has not been Ryan Nugent-Hopkins or Zach Hyman either. Instead, the forward who has most often ridden shotgun with the 2025 Rocket Richard winner is Vasily Podkolzin. The Edmonton Oilers initially brought in Podkolzin in…

It’s always fun when the Edmonton Oilers square off against the Calgary Flames, and with a second Battle of Alberta happening only four days after the last one, it would be the understatement of a lifetime to say I was excited about Saturday’s rematch. And as hoped, the emotions were high, the pace was steady,…

Connor Ingram started his third game for the Edmonton Oilers Saturday night. The overall result wasn’t what the team was hoping for, losing 3-2 to the Calgary Flames on a night where the Turkey Legs slowed the Oilers, but one promising result was Ingram’s play. He turned aside 29 of 32 shots for a .906…

I have spent the last couple of days reading up on all the happenings in the ECHL's current labour battle with games having been postponed as of yesterday afternoon. Admittedly, I think Jason and I hit on all the topics on The Hockey Show on Thursday, and I know I wrote a lot about what seemed to be the major points of contention on Monday. Today, though, a new wrinkle emerged in the ownership ranks as it seems one team owner might be in a lot of hot water legally, and this could certainly aff...
