We are about 30 percent into the 2025-26 NHL regular season. Thus far, this season has offered numerous surprises, with various teams performing above and below expectations.

Eight teams were back in action across western Canada this weekend as the Canada West women's hockey schedule saw games played in three of the four provinces. Two teams came in desperately needing points, three teams were trying to accumulate more points to secure playoff spots, two teams were battling for first-place, and one team was all about winning and setting records. If we're following trends from the first half of the season, there are seven teams vying for six playoff spots at this po...
When did Mikko Rantanen become such a goon? Ugly week for the well-paid Finn, who incurred the wrath of Islanders coach Patrick Roy after he crashed into Alex Romanov with under a minute left in DAL-NYI earlier this week. Roy’s passion was so infectious. I was fortunate enough to be watching live, and you have…
The Edmonton Oilers’ road trip had so many chapters that it read like a Russian novel. But after they punted Sergei Bobrovsky out of the game in the second period on Saturday night, and then hung on to seal the victory, I’m guessing they felt equal parts satisfaction, relief, and sore muscles on the flight…
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
After a couple of nights of moral victories and actual losses, the Edmonton Oilers were finally able to cash in on the improving vibes and lock in two big points… in Sunrise of all places. I don’t know who these guys in blue and orange were, but I would like them to stick around because…
The Edmonton Oilers earned a hard-fought win over the Florida Panthers on Saturday night. It was their first regulation victory in the month of November. With a 10-9-5 record through seven weeks of play, these Stanley Cup hopefuls haven’t really looked like a serious contender just yet. The goaltending has been shaky, the defence has…

Through the first quarter of the 2025-26 season, the Edmonton Oilers are facing a familiar problem: an inconsistent goaltending duo that isn’t giving them enough. The results continue to trend in the wrong direction for Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard, and the organization’s patience may be wearing thin. TSN Hockey insider Darren Dreger discussed potential…
Recap of the game.
After dropping both games against the Capitals and Lightning despite showing way more life than they did in Buffalo, the Oilers roll into Sunrise for their final stop on this marathon seven-game road trip. This will be the first meeting with the Florida Panthers since they won their second straight Stanley Cup in Game 6,…
The focus turns to the Wild who they face tomorrow afternoon.
There’s an obvious storyline here, but let’s just not go with it. The Edmonton Oilers face the Florida Panthers on Saturday night, and everyone’s gonna want to call it a rematch of last season’s Stanley Cup Final. After all, these are the two teams that have played a total of 13 games in pursuit of…
The 1990s were an interesting time for the NHL. The Penguins won Stanley Cups at the start of the decade, Montreal won Canada's last Stanley Cup during that decade, the Rangers and Devils had their moments, and the Red Wings, Stars, and Avalanche were in an arms race as the decade finished as all won Stanley Cups as well.

The finale of this gauntlet seven-game road trip through the Eastern Conference will be in Southern Florida against the back-to-back defending Stanley Cup champions. It’s been tough sledding for the back-to-back Stanley Cup runner-ups so far. Edmonton’s…
There are Xs and Os. There are style, tactics, and a game plan. And then there’s will. There’s want. There’s taking punishment and doling out punishment. Maybe with the Oilers set to play their seventh game in eleven calendar days, Saturday night’s game won’t feature as much of this intense battle — but I hope…

On November 21st in 2010, Anaheim Ducks forward Corey Perry scored an own goal when his offensive zone centering pass traveled the length of the ice into Jonas Hiller's empty net with 16 seconds to play.
Perry's own goal, credited to Tom Gilbert of the Edmonton Oilers, was met with laughs from the last place visitors and some taunting from rookie Taylor Hall. Perry made up for the miscue by
On Friday evening, the Edmonton Oilers made a surprising move, calling up rookie forward Connor Clattenburg from the American Hockey League.
