After going 3-28-3 last season, the Miami RedHawks have climbed to 16-8-2 and 7-7-2 in NCHC play, and No. 19 in the NPI, following a series sweep at St. Cloud State last weekend. For a program that has spent years buried at the bottom of the standings, the turnaround under second-year head coach Anthony Noreen has been remarkable to see...
And the two shall meet again...
I have never been to Stavely, Alberta, but the town was shaken to its core tonight upon hearing the news that three young hockey players lost their lives today following an automobile accident. The three players from the Southern Alberta Mustangs were reportedly headed to practice when their small car collided with a truck carrying gravel at an intersection just outside of town on Highway 2. This is a heartbreaking moment for the town and the team, and I can't imagine the grief that is being s...
Recap of the game.

Could the Edmonton Oilers have eyes on Artemi Panarin? Insider Dave Pagnotta joined Oilersnation Everyday on Monday and was asked about the Artemi Panarin trade situation.

Does anyone want to win the Pacific Division? Since the calendar turned to 2026, the race for first place in the Pacific Division has been uninspiring. Seattle has the best record in the New Year, while Edmonton and Anaheim are the only other teams to win more than half their games, and both of them…
The Edmonton Oilers have extended a defenceman currently playing with the Bakersfield Condors. With the news that Calvin Pickard cleared waivers, the team also announced that they’ve signed left-shot defenceman Atro Leppänen to a one-year extension.

Edmonton Oilers netminder Calvin Pickard has cleared NHL waivers, according to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman. Pickard, 33, was placed on waivers Sunday, weeks after sliding down the Oilers goaltending depth chart from the backup to the No. 3.

The Edmonton Oilers have two games left before the Olympic break, following a rough 7-3 loss to the Minnesota Wild last Saturday. With Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Josh Samanski the only three Oilers headed to the upcoming Olympics (so far), the team should aim to finish strong this week against their Canadian rivals, the…
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
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 the Oilers’ goaltending rotation, NHL stars getting younger, Andrew Mangiapane trade returns, and more. If you’ve…
We’re just hitting the two-thirds mark of the regular season. The Olympic break is days away, the trade deadline is still over a month away, and a million things can change between now and April. Is it too early to start thinking about the playoffs? Probably. But like a little kid noticing the Christmas decorations starting to go up in November, it’s OK to start looking ahead just a bit. And that feels especially true right now, when a peek at the standings hints at a first round that could be...
A daily roundup of Winnipeg Jets, Manitoba Moose coverage — all the pro hockey news that matters in Manitoba and beyond.
There was a delay on this article thanks to Mother Nature interfering with the schedule set out by Canada West. Regina and Saskatchewan were forced to play the second game in their two-game set on Sunday as a winter storm swept into the rectangular province, and full credit to the two teams for not putting anyone at risk by travelling when it wasn't ideal. As such, this article was on pause when it came to being published until those teams got that final contest of the weekend in, but let's se...
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. Why trade for a 3C? Seeing lots of chatter of how this team needs to get a legit third-line centre and that’ll really bring it…
As soon as some of my colleagues and fellow fans uttered the phrase, “Is this the best Edmonton Oilers goaltending since…” Tristan Jarry has looked suspicious. Sorry Bordzy. We remember the Edmonton Oilers back-to-back shutouts from Jarry and Connor Ingram on January 17 and 18. In the six games since, the Oilers’ have surrendered 27…

Multiple top-nine forwards left the Edmonton Oilers organization this past summer, with names such as Connor Brown, Corey Perry, Viktor Arvidsson, Jeff Skinner, and more. It seemed that management decided to primarily bank on internal growth to offset those departures, particularly from prospects Matthew Savoie and Isaac Howard. The Oilers added only one notable, established…
It’s becoming increasingly clear that the class of the Western Conference resides in the Central Division. The Minnesota Wild took care of business in Edmonton on Saturday night, handling the Oilers in a 7-3 win and completing a regular-season sweep in the process. After a tight opening frame that saw the two teams trade goals,…
Was anyone else not surprised that it took an all-world comeback for the Oilers to finally win their third game in a row? This team is ridiculous, and it only made sense for them to get the monkey off their back in the most impossible way imaginable. Down three goals to winning in overtime. If…
