We made it to Vancouver for the Nation Vacation, and last night, we got together as a group to watch the Oilers take on the Kraken. Unfortunately, it did not go our way. Unfortunately, the same mistakes kept coming up over and over again. Oilers lose, and it’s hard to argue that it wasn’t deserved….

The Edmonton Oilers took some steps in the right direction Saturday night. The good: They outshot the Seattle Kraken 33-23, with a +10 shot differential, their highest since Game 2 of the season against the Vancouver Canucks. The not-so-good: Too few of those pucks went into the Kraken net. The bad: Off the back of…

If hockey was played at any level tonight, I wasn't watching. A bad case of Blue Jays Fever has set in at HBIC Headquarters, and their battle against the Los Angeles Dodgers tonight was the only game I was watching. Call me out for my lack of hockey passion on this one, but Canada's only Major League Baseball team being in the World Series on Canadian soil playing against a team that has been portrayed as "invincible" in the postseason is must-watch television for me. Combine that with the fac...

Thursday’s win against Montreal felt like watching two different hockey teams wearing the same jerseys. For forty-ish minutes, the Oilers looked flat, careless, and completely disconnected. The passing was off, the mistakes piled up, and it felt like we were about to sit through another one of those nights where self-inflicted wounds ruined the result….

A couple of big wins so far this week for the Oilers. Things hadn’t been going the team’s way — some defensive issues, tough time scoring — but they got a bit of everything they needed against the Senators. Connor McDavid got a beauty, which we all knew was coming. Isaac Howard scored his first…

The conversation surrounding the Edmonton Oilers and their goaltending never seems to go away. While the Oilers have gotten off to another ho-hum start at 4-3-1, the issue has been more due to their offense than their goaltending. But, we’ve all seen how the combination of Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard has held the Oilers…

Choosing a team name for an expansion franchise usually happens before jerseys are debuted in order to have the franchise's new logo based on the name affixed to said jerseys. As we know, the PWHL didn't do that with their first six franchises, waiting over a year to actually attach names to those teams. The six names chosen still seem rather ridiculous, but the PWHL made it through Year Two as the Minnesota Frost celebrated their second Walter Cup victory over the Ottawa Charge. Knowing two e...

The Edmonton Oilers know they didn’t fully deserve to win Thursday night’s game against the Montreal Canadiens. They were sloppy, disorganized, and looked disinterested at times for the first 50 minutes of the game, but they woke up in the final 10 minutes, erased a two-goal deficit, and won 6-5. It wasn’t pretty. It wasn’t…

The messy back-and-forth affair turned controversial, owing to an imbalance in power play opportunities between the two teams. Edmonton had five on the night, converting on two in the final frame,…
