Oilersnation Radio: Oilers get record-setting production from their defence
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-setting run by defencemen, Josh Samanski’s NHL debut, and much more. We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with…
Grateful And Thankful
After a night of well-needed sleep under a stack of blankets to warm up, it's time for some reflection on the 2026 Female World Sport School Challenge. This isn't going to be some autopsy on the event; rather, it's more of a showing of gratitude for allowing myself and UMFM to take part when both Balmoral Hall School and the Balmoral Hall Blazers could have opted to go with any radio station or have no radio broadcasts at all. As we said on the broadcasts, we are honoured to have been given th...

Oilers Prospect Update: Bakersfield drops back-to-back games for first losing streak in 2026
It was a three-game week for the Bakersfield Condors and some Edmonton Oilers prospects, and they came out with one win. That hasn’t happened much lately as the back-to-back losses are the first losing streak for the Condors since the calendar changed to 2026. Before the back-to-back losses, the Condors were on a 10-game point…

Looking at which Condor could earn the next call up to the Oilers
On Monday morning, the Edmonton Oilers called up Josh Samanski. Signed in April 2025, the German centre, who will represent his country in the Olympics, has gone on to become a vital piece for the American Hockey League’s Bakersfield Condors, scoring seven goals and 28 points in 39 games, while providing strong two-way play. He,…
The Day After 54.0: Oilers handle Ducks in first meeting against potential playoff opponent
If the NHL season were to end today, Monday night’s matchup between the Edmonton Oilers and Anaheim Ducks would have been a first-round preview. Of course, much can and surely will change between late January and the start of the playoffs in April, but for now, the Oilers sit second in the Pacific Division while…

Record setting night for the Oilers’ defence, Spencer Stastney’s goal, and Josh Samanski’s NHL debut
After what was one of the wilder Oilers comeback wins you’ll ever see on Saturday against the Capitals, the boys were back at it against the red-hot Anaheim Ducks.

It wasn’t pretty, but the Edmonton Oilers won back-to-back games. On Monday evening, the Oilers hosted the Anaheim Ducks for the fifth game of their eight-game home stand.

The Ralph Gets The Aurora
If you haven't been keeping up with the Federal Prospects Hockey League, that's probably because you live nowhere near one of their member teams. There was a completely moronic signing that happened today by the Baton Rouge Zydeco that involved a player who should never play professional hockey again , but we're going to focus on a better story from the FPHL that doesn't involve convicted criminals. Instead, the image to the left is likely what you'll see on the shoulders of the jerseys for th...
20 years ago today, the Oilers acquire Jaroslav Spacek and Dick Tarnstrom
Twenty years ago, on this day in Edmonton Oilers history, the team made two big trades to help bolster the blueline ahead of what would become the Cinderella run to the Stanley Cup final. On January 26, 2006, general manager Kevin Lowe pulled the trigger on acquiring Jaroslav Spacek from the Chicago Blackhawks for the…
The Rundown - Week 13
I watched a total of zero minutes of action from Canada West this weekend given that I was watching tomorrow's stars all weekend at the 2026 Female World Sport School Challenge , so don't expect a lot of breakdown or analysis this week. I'm cold, I'm tired, my voice is hoarse from broadcasting, and I need some serious sleep. The good news is the hockey I got to watch was pretty incredible, and there should be some Canada West teams who are very excited to have their signed players joining thei...

Fifteen of the Edmonton Oilers’ final 29 games are against Pacific Division opponents. The Oilers are in a battle for first place with Vegas, but Anaheim is suddenly right behind the Oilers after winning seven consecutive games, so home ice for the 2-3 matchup will also be settled down the stretch. Edmonton is 6-2-3 against…
Scenes From Morning Skate: Samanski’s big debut and Kapanen’s return
Edmonton Oilers prospect Josh Samanski is set to make his NHL debut tonight against the Anaheim Ducks, and if you’ve been following the Bakersfield Condors all season, you knew this was coming. The 24-year-old has been progressing in the AHL — 7 goals, 21 assists, 28 points and very little ice time on the power…
A look at the impact Oilers’ Zach Hyman and Evan Bouchard have had since Team Canada released its Olympic roster
With the way Connor McDavid’s teammates are playing — Zach Hyman, who’s been sizzling for the Edmonton Oilers for almost two months and connected with McDavid for the game-tying goal against the Washington Capitals, and Evan Bouchard, who recorded a six-point night against them — the topic on everyone’s mind just got even bigger: leaving…
Winnipeg Jets head coach Scott Arniel doesn’t expect any of his injured defencemen back before break

Pre-Scout: Huge divisional matchup sees Anaheim Ducks on a 7-game win streak
There is no NHL team that streaks harder than the Anaheim Ducks. You’d think it was an Old School casting call. For a fourth straight time, the Edmonton Oilers play a team that defeated the Calgary Flames just 24 hours before, who won 4-3 in overtime in a game they never led. At one point in…
