Getting you set up for tonight’s Jets game.
Hockey analyst Frankie Corrado shares his thoughts.
A mental, emotional and physical reset seemed to help the Edmonton Oilers. Edmonton is in a stretch where they play just once in six days. They had consecutive days of practice for the first time in almost a month, and it paid off as they played their most complete game of the season en route…
Update on the Jets’ top-four defenceman.
The Edmonton Oilers’ Jekyll-and-Hyde season continues, from a few days of letting the 8–3 beatdown at the hands of the Dallas Stars sulk and live rent-free in fans’ minds, to putting together one of their most complete games of the season in a 4–0 win against the Seattle Kraken last Saturday. It seems the Oilers…
Stuart Skinner’s career with the Edmonton Oilers has been a roller coaster, from the soaring highs of a 16-game winning streak to the crushing lows of losing the net in the postseason.

The player to the left shall not be named in today's article for any reason. He hasn't earned that respect by any measure after being acquitted for charges of sexual assault in the Hockey Canada trial. You all know his name so me repeating it here isn't necessary, but I want to make it clear that his name will never be used in any way since it became apparent that the Vegas Golden Knights are desperate for a goaltender regardless of past allegations and involvement in alleged crimes. As he pla...

Vokoun exited on a stretcher after a 10 minute delay and was transported to a local hospital for treatment. The Czech netminder escaped serious injury, needing only 10 stitches to
What did we learn about the Edmonton Oilers this week? Not much. The Oilers have long been fans of the zig-zag. Think they’re turning the corner? No, no.
