Ten Oilers on pace to hit career highs in various categories after the Olympic break
Not watching the Edmonton Oilers play every second night feels kind of strange, doesn’t it? But for many of us, watching the Olympics is filling the void — Team Canada’s women’s team dominated Switzerland 4–0, and it was a treat to see Leon Draisaitl wave the flag for Team Germany at the opening ceremony, with…
Sportsnet | Winnipeg Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck joins Colby Armstrong ‘On the Couch’
The mask came off (literally) as the Vezina winner sat down for a chat about a number of topics.
Monday Mailbag: Should Paul Coffey return to the Oilers’ bench?
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’ coaching noise, Paul Coffey’s return, Leon Draisaitl’s comments on the team, and more. If…
NHL weekend rankings: A blockbuster trade, a midseason rankings reset, and more
Let’s get you caught up on all the NHL action you missed over the weekend. There wasn’t any. Cool, good column. See you next time. OK, we won’t wrap it up quite that quickly. But with most teams getting only a couple of games in since this time last week, don’t expect any major changes in the rankings. Instead, let’s use this week as a bit of a reset and regroup before the rankings take a few weeks off. For example, now would be a good time to look at which teams have been on which lists so fa...

Oilers 2026 trade deadline target: Bobby McMann
The Edmonton Oilers have been linked to Toronto Maple Leafs forward Bobby McMann in recent weeks. About two weeks ago on Oilers Now, Bob Stauffer mentioned the forward, with Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman agreeing that he’d look good on the roster. From there, the rumour took on a life of its own, with The Fourth Period’s…
I'm Declining
I was invited to a Super Bowl party tomorrow, but I have decided that I won't be going. I know there will likely be amazing food there based on who invited me and the always-delicious dishes this person seems to have available, but I'm declining the invitation for one major reason: I can't stand the NFL. People always seem to assume that because I'm a sports fan, I must love the NFL. I'm here to inform everyone that it's not true. In fact, if given the option of watching any NFL game at any po...
Top 100 Oilers: No. 48 — Oscar Klefbom
Oilersnation is reviving the Top 100 Edmonton Oilers of All Time list, a project originally created by the late Robin Brownlee in 2015. Oscar Klefbom comes in at No. 47 on our updated 2025 list. He wasn’t ranked on Brownlee’s original list. Oscar Klefbom was a darn good defenceman who had his career cut way…
Sunday Scramble: Where is your panic meter on the Edmonton Oilers?
Where is your panic meter on the Edmonton Oilers? I joined Oilersnation Everyday with Liam Horrobin on Friday. Tyler was away, hence this long-haired scrub getting a chance on the show, amidst some tension, of course, about the team. We tackled panic meter questions surrounding the coaching and the front office’s ability to make moves. I…
Rumours swirl about a potential return of Paul Coffey to the Oilers bench
Could there be some adjustments behind the Edmonton Oilers‘ bench in the near future? Some insiders believe that might be the case. Over the past few days, rumours have started to circulate that the Oilers might consider bringing former assistant coach and Hockey Hall of Famer Paul Coffey back to the coaching staff for the…
Oilers’ McDavid skates on top line with Celebrini, Wilson at first Team Canada skate: ‘It feels more real’
The first indications of who Connor McDavid will play with at the Olympic Games arrived on Sunday. As Team Canada held their first skate together, the Edmonton Oilers phenom centred the top line with Macklin Celebrini on the left wing and Tom Wilson on the right wing during line rushes. TSN’s Ryan Rishaug also reported…
The Rundown - Week 15
If teams are serious about making the playoffs or securing quarterfinal byes or home-ice advantage in the quarterfinals, this was the weekend where all of that could happen. With four games remaining for most teams, there was still a tiny amount of wiggle room where positioning could be pushed to next week, but the results from this week would dictate how next plays out. In saying that, let's find out who is in, who is out, and who is playing for next week's exciting finish on this week's edit...
Ask Dubey: Did the Oilers make a mistake in trading for Tristan Jarry?
Welcome back to another edition of Ask Dubey! What a week it was around the NHL, as we had a goalie fight in an outdoor game, and the schedule wound down before the Olympic break. In this week’s edition, we touch on that, as well as whether or not the Edmonton Oilers made a mistake…

Meet the Sellers: The St. Louis Blues have plenty of players to move
The trade deadline is officially less than a month away. It’s that time of year when we look at the sellers around the league. With the Olympic break beginning after Thursday’s slate of games, the division being playoff teams and non-playoff teams is becoming clear. After just barely squeaking into the playoffs last season and…
Isolation: An Olympic Fad
After the Finland-Canada game was delayed on Thursday due to the outbreak of norovirus among the Finnish players, it seemed like the virus could become the story of the women's hockey event at the Milano-Cortina Olympics. Jason and I went over the medical side of the virus yesterday on The Hockey Show , but the one thing we made clear is that norovirus is highly-contagious and easily-communicable among people. As we know in hockey, one never wants to give an opponent momentum, but it seems tha...
Friedman: Oilers looking for players who can ‘accept bottom-six role’
It’s going to be a curious few weeks in Oil Country. With one month less a day until the NHL’s trade deadline, the Edmonton Oilers have lots to do in the way of upgrading their team. For one, they “need to move Andrew Mangiapane,” Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman said in a 32 Thoughts column Friday. He’s not wrong,…
