Connor McDavid’s five best games that led to a fifth Ted Lindsay Award
I’ve said it many times before, and I’ll likely say it many times again, but we’re truly lucky to be in an era where we can watch Connor McDavid, the best player on the planet, do what he does night after night. The Edmonton Oilers’ forward was recently named the 2025-26 winner of the Ted…

Monday Mailbag: How much can a new coach help to turn the Oilers around?
Good morning, everyone, and a happy Monday to you all. As per tradition, I’ve got a brand new mailbag set to go after taking your questions and sending them to the crew for their takes. This week, we’re discussing Darnell Nurse trade rumours, the Oilers’ coaching search, free agent targets, and more. If you’ve got…
Expansion Into Anytown, USA
It came as a bit of a surprise on Thursday that the USHL will be making an announcement on June 24 about expansion into California, Nevada, and Arizona. We know that all the junior hockey leagues are looking to expand their footprints on the North Ameican map - sometimes with teams switching leagues to do so - but expansion by the USHL into these three states is a big move for a league that's generally only had games played in the US midwest. For a league whose furthest southwest team was in K...
There are 35 ways an NHL playoff series can go. Here's the best example of each
Three games in, and this year’s Stanley Cup final is on track to achieve all-time classic status. And while we’ve still got what we hope are four games left to go, the action so far has got me thinking about great playoff series through NHL history. Let’s start with a question: How many different ways are there to win a playoff series? There are a few ways to answer that question. We could go existential and say the answer is “an infinite number of way”, because of every series is a unique sno...

Oilers Letters to the Editor: Trading for Dylan Larkin and supporting Nurse
It’s time to dig into this week’s Letters to the Editor. Want to join in the fun? Details about how to reach out are at the bottom of the article. Dylan Larkin, future Edmonton Oiler? “The more you win, the more you want to win.” Larry Ellison said this in an interview with Charlie Rose,…
Sunday Scramble: Golden Knights avoid comeuppance they richly deserve
On the first anniversary of the most gut-wrenching Edmonton Oilers loss I’d ever seen in person – the Brad Marchand double overtime game-winner of Game 2 – I couldn’t help but put myself in a Carolina Hurricanes fan’s shoes watching that spectacle last night. Back on June 6, 2025, it was the only time in…
The Close-To-Dallas Stars
It's hard for me to sit here and read through the Dallas Stars' proposed plan for a new arena and not be angered by what they're doing. I will, in no way, be affected by the decisions that the Stars and the poltiicians in and around Dallas make, but it seems that their official colour of Victory Green should be renamed to Greedy Green based on their new arena idea. After all the bad press they took over Kenny Jacoby's USA Today article that exposed the Stars' efforts to create an arena monopol...
Absolutely Zero Time
If there's one thing that I realize as I get older, it's that time is a finite resource. People always tell me that I could "make time" if I really wanted to, and I'm sure that's true if I simply didn't care about obligations and responsibilities. Tonight will be the third-straight night of me working all day at my normal full-time job before heading to the ballpark for some minor-pro baseball which will see me arrive at home some 14 hours after I left this morning. This schedule will continue...
Why NHL fans should ignore giveaway and takeaway stats
NHL teams and private analytics companies track an enormous range of detailed, event‑level data, such as zone entries, zone exits, puck retrievals, blocked passes, and far more. These sorts of metrics are what we can call “microstats,” which help us understand how and why a player or team achieves their given macro-level results. Inside NHL…
Oilers’ Connor McDavid wins fifth Ted Lindsay Award
The NHL announced early Saturday morning that Connor McDavid has been named the 2025-26 Ted Lindsay Award winner, marking the fifth time the Edmonton Oilers captain has been voted by his peers as the best player in the NHL. And while I’d love to pretend there’s some big surprise here, there really isn’t, nor should…
Should the Oilers be afraid of adding dead cap space?
One thing that the two teams competing in this year’s Stanley Cup Final have is that neither one has any dead cap space on its books. No buyouts. No retained salaries. Nothing. A clean sheet. If you head over to the Edmonton Oilers PuckPedia page and scroll down a little bit, your eyes will eventually…
What it was like inside T-Mobile arena for Game 3
VEGAS — You know a hockey game has been good when you can ask the question, “Which of the three NHL records was your favourite?” The hockey world was treated to another classic in the 2026 Stanley Cup final as the Vegas Golden Knights and Carolina Hurricanes battled it out in Game 3 of the…
Oilers coaching search most dramatic since 1994
Kris Knoblauch was relieved of his duties as Edmonton Oilers coach on May 14, and the organization is three weeks and counting into a search for the next bench boss. It’s the longest stretch in over a decade that the Oilers haven’t had a head coach, the last public headhunt being when Ken Holland was…
