Which Oilers goaltender should get the bulk of the starts moving forward: Connor Ingram or Tristan Jarry?
The Edmonton Oilers sit just four points out of a tie for first place in the Pacific Division, but they’re also only four points above the playoff cut line. With only 24 games remaining in the regular season, the margins are thin, and every point matters. One of the biggest question marks down the stretch…
Oilers Prospect Update: Bakersfield get bodies back as they take three of four points on the week
The Bakersfield Condors finished the week off playing only two games and winning one of them. The lineup didn’t see massive changes during the win on Wednesday versus the Coachella Valley Firebirds, but in the overtime loss to the Calgary Wranglers, the lineup saw a few changes. The first major change was that Cam Dineen…

A brief history of the Selanne Trophy, a fake award for best combined NHL/Olympics year
It’s been a while since we added anything to our fake trophy case. That’s where we store the Carson (for best sophomore season ), the Bourque (for best final season ), the Pollock (for best trade ) and the Thornton (for best debut with a new team ). Today, we’re unveiling a new fake trophy, for the best combination NHL and Olympic performance in the same season. Please ooh and awe at the shiny new Teemu Selanne Trophy. Selanne was a relatively easy choice for the honor of having the award name...
Why the Oilers should steer clear of Rasmus Ristolainen
The Edmonton Oilers’ addition of Paul Coffey back onto their coaching staff is a clear signal that they do not trust their blueline. It really is as simple as that. If they thought that the current group of six defensemen were playing at a capable level, then they wouldn’t have made this change. I also…

Commentary: Get Rid of Home-Road Weighting?
In 2013, the NCAA Men's Ice Committee instituted home/road weighting to the criteria used to select teams for the NCAA Tournament. More specifically, the RPI component of the Pairwise was adjusted depending upon whether the game was played at home or away.With the change to use straight NPI this year, that concept was largely carried over. A win at home counts less than a win on the road, and vice...
Team of the Week: Bentley
Last season, Bentley had its first 20-win season, first Atlantic Hockey Tournament championship, and first NCAA Tournament appearance in program history. Those were heady times.But this season, as it approaches 20 wins again (18-9-5), has been about not stopping that momentum.To that end, Bentley took another step, and maybe the hardest one yet, when it defeated RIT last weekend to wrap up the Atlantic...
Jeff Jackson's Baby Fully Grown
Jeff Jackson was the first head coach of the U.S. National Team Development Program, leaving Lake Superior State to start the program after having won two national championships there as a head coach, and another as an assistant. He was much more than that, though. He had to start the entire program, including figuring out exactly what its mission would be, how it would operate, how it would attract...
Oilers trade rumours: Mangiapane expected to be moved by deadline, team checks in on Ristolainen
Drivers, start your engines. With the Olympics out of the way and the March 6th NHL trade deadline fast approaching, there will be no shortage of news to follow in the coming days and weeks. Monday was no different, as the Edmonton Oilers were at the front of a couple of news items. The Fourth…
Oilers injury update: McDavid and Kapanen to miss time, Henrique ready to return to lineup
The Edmonton Oilers lineup on Wednesday ought to be interesting. After riding the waves of Olympic emotions, Connor McDavid might not join the Oilers right away, who are thrust right back into game action with a back-to-back in Anaheim and Los Angeles beginning Wednesday. “When he exactly joins the team, and when he’s ready to…

Where Nugent-Hopkins fits best and the Oilers’ biggest trade need
While our nation mourns a tough gold medal loss in men’s hockey, the NHL resumes play on Wednesday. The Olympics were an excellent timeout from the regular season, but now all 32 teams turn their focus to the standings, their needs and wants, before the NHL trade deadline next Friday and the drive to the…
A closer look at the Western Conference playoff race and where the Oilers stand
The 2026 Winter Olympics are officially over, and the 2025-26 NHL regular season will resume once again on Wednesday. For the Edmonton Oilers, this has, once again, been a season of significant ups and downs. For their standards, they held mediocre records of 5-4-3 and 6-6-2 in the opening months of October and November, respectively….

And just like that, the 2026 Winter Olympics have come to an end, with the gold medal game between Team Canada and Team U.S.A. standing as the pinnacle of the Games. From a hockey fan’s perspective, the gold medal game had everything you could ask for — aside from a ton of goals, of course…
Monday Scramble: Team Canada & Connor McDavid do everything but score in gut-punch loss

Bracket Breakdown
I've been writing these NCAA Tournament analysis articles for decades now, and over the years, they've become increasingly routine.That's largely because the makeup of what was the Pairwise became more and more straightforward over the years.And now, with the move to NPI, the algorithm is entirely straightforward.For better or worse (and a few coaches, but not most, have said it's worse), the NPI ...
