The Edmonton Oilers aren’t helping Tristan Jarry, and Tristan Jarry isn’t helping the Edmonton Oilers. Both things are true. The Oilers are a puck-watching, golden-opportunity-leaking hockey team in front of him. Jarry is an anxious, unconfident goaltender right now. Friday’s loss against the Carolina Hurricanes was his first start in nine days, a three-game pause…
Recap of the game.
The Edmonton Oilers roll into Las Vegas on Sunday for Game 64 of the season, and there’s no point pretending this one doesn’t matter. Friday’s 6–3 loss to Carolina was another frustrating reminder that this team still hasn’t figured out how to play hockey the right way, and with the calendar pushing deeper into March,…
On March 8th in 2007, Chris Simon of the New York Islanders viciously struck New York Rangers forward Ryan Hollweg in the face with his stick midway through the third period in retaliation to a concussion-inducing check.
Hollweg escaped with only two stitches from the blow. An apologetic Simon was assessed a NHL record 25 game suspension for the egregious act, a marker he would surpass nine
On March 8th in 2004, the lives of Todd Bertuzzi of the Vancouver Canucks and Colorado Avalanche forward Steve Moore became inextricably linked in a now famous gruesome act of retribution gone wrong.
The seeds of the incident were sewn three weeks earlier, when Moore swept the puck away from Markus Naslund and proceeded to deliver an open ice headshot to the then league leading scorer. The

After splitting their two home games this week, the Oilers head out on a four-game road trip that will see them face two of the strongest teams in the league. First up is an important Pacific Division matchup with the Vegas Golden Knights, who would host Edmonton in the first round of the playoffs if…
At the 2026 NHL Trade Deadline, the Edmonton Oilers acquired exactly three players, and they all came from one team. First, on March 3, they picked up defenceman Connor Murphy from the Chicago Blackhawks for a second‑round pick. One day later, they circled back to Chicago to acquire forwards Jason Dickinson and Colton Dach in…
Lately, the Edmonton Oilers and Vegas Golden Knights have been mirror images of each other. Mainly, losing. On Friday night, both teams faced two of the elite clubs in the NHL this season. Edmonton’s inconsistency reared its head at home, within a goal down the stretch, before the Carolina Hurricanes doubled them up 6-3. That’s…
Connor Murphy, Jason Dickinson and Colton Dach are the new names in Oil Country following Friday afternoon’s trade deadline. Whether the moves work has little to do with Stan Bowman. Bowman was evidently satisfied with his moves, announcing Thursday that he likely wouldn’t make any more. Edmonton went into the final hours with extra cap…

I spent my Friday evening in a rink once again, but this game was a little different in that we had the radio gear out, we were broadcasting a game, and we were having a blast!

Tonight saw Game One of the three-game set kick off the weekend, ...
Getting you set up for tonight’s Jets game.
The Edmonton Oilers added key defensive pieces to their roster before the trade deadline to lower their goals against, but in the first game since retooling the lineup, they once again had a tough time keeping the puck out of their net in a 6-3 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. There’s no other way to…
