Oilers’ Kailer Yamamoto Is a Game Changer
Kailer Yamamoto has been an intriguing player to follow over the last three seasons. He showed supreme confidence before the 2017 NHL Draft when he told the Edmonton Oilers’ previous management regime that they would regret passing on him.

Edmonton Oilers’ 2003-04 Season
Sixteen years ago, the Edmonton Oilers were a very different team. In 2003-04 they didn’t have a Connor McDavid or a Leon Draisaitl, but they had a stronger supporting cast than the current squad. Despite their lack of high-end talent, head coach Craig MacTavish maximized the potential of every player on the roster and nearly […]

Projecting Oilers’ 2022 Olympics Participants
The only hockey tournament in the world that can come close to rivaling the excitement of the Stanley Cup playoffs is the Winter Olympics. After participating in every Winter Olympics between 1998 and 2014, the NHL did not send its players to the 2018 Games in PyeongChang, South Korea. While there are still several important […]

Edmonton Oilers’ 3 Best Contracts in 2019-20
Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl carry the two best-value contracts on the Edmonton Oilers.

Connor McDavid’s Remarkable Comeback
The fact that Connor McDavid is even playing hockey this season is a minor miracle. The Edmonton Oilers’ superstar has made a full recovery from a major knee injury he suffered when he crashed hard into the goalpost in the final game of the 2018-19 season.

Edmonton Oilers Should Recall Tyler Benson
