Today In NHL History - Roy Trade (MTL-COL)
On December 6th in 1995, the Montreal Canadiens traded Patrick Roy and team captain Mike Keane to the Colorado Avalanche for Jocelyn Thibault, Martin Rucinsky and Andrei Kovalenko in what remains one of the most lopsided exchanges in league history. The seeds of the move were sewn on December 2, 1995 during a franchise worst 11-1 home loss to the Detroit Red Wings. Allowing five goals in the
The Day After 29.0: Have the Oilers put their early season woes behind them?
Have the Edmonton Oilers found their mojo? Is the early-season slump over? Have they, like in the last two years, finally started to find their game two months into the season? The latest stretch of games, punctuated by a 6-2 walloping of the Winnipeg Jets, shows that might be the case. It still might be…

Another offensive explosion sees Oilers down Jets 6-2: Recap, Highlights, and Reaction
That’s two in a row. On Saturday evening, the Edmonton Oilers played their third game on the five-game homestand, defeating the Winnipeg Jets 6-2. This came just two days after they smashed the Seattle Kraken 9-4. Safe to say they are officially back, so let’s take a look at what happened in this one! The…

After putting together their best offensive night on Thursday in a 9-4 win over the Kraken, the Oilers look to keep the momentum going in the third game of this five-game homestand against the Winnipeg Jets.

Scenes From Morning Skate: Knoblauch sticks with four-goal second line
Kris Knoblauch didn’t exactly plan for Vasily Podkolzin, Leon Draisaitl, and Matt Savoie to become his second line against the Seattle Kraken, and now the Winnipeg Jets. But when you’ve already cycled through 28 different forward combinations in your first 13 games, you’re not so much making calculated decisions as you are reacting to whatever…
Don't Call It A Comeback
After I wrote last week about Garret Sparks suiting up with Bloomington as their EBUG for a week, I didn't expect to write a second story about a former NHL player finding work in the ECHL. The man to the left, though, has given me that opportunity as he signed a standard player contract with the ECHL's Jacksonville Icemen yesterday, and the veteran of 73 NHL games appears to have played last night as the Icemen hosted the Atlanta Gladiators. If you don't recognize him from that picture immedi...

Oilers Rumours: No deal for goaltender in place despite ‘some wild speculation’
The noise around the Edmonton Oilers’ goaltending has quieted down in the last week, as since the team’s 8-3 blowout loss to the Dallas Stars, things have improved. It’s just a three-game stretch, mind you, but the Oilers have gone 2-1 with a pair of wins over the Kraken, in which Edmonton outscored them 13-4,…
Pre-Scout: Jets bounce back but have quick turnaround to face Oilers
November was not so kind to the Winnipeg Jets. The Jets were 31st in points percentage in November at .385 per cent a far cry from being 6th in that same category in October. That’s the type of run that gets you in the basement of the league and a lottery pick. However, seeing the…
Friday Night At Ice Level
The image to the left is a view I rarely find myself able to see unless I'm watching TimBits hockey. Even then, there's usually an army of parents cheering on their kids from ice level that force me to sit higher up in the stands. I'm not complaining since I don't have a kid on the ice, but the the point is that I rarely get to enjoy a hockey game at any level down at ice level. Being that I was offered a ticket to the Winnipeg Jets game tonight as they battled the Buffalo Sabres, I couldn't s...
