Game 32 2018-19: Oilers at Jets
Ken Hitchcock has his Edmonton Oilers in a good spot after a wicked 8-2-1 run that served as his introduction (as if he needed one) to Oilers Nation. Hitchcock, who has been dealing with a roster that lacks depth, will need to find a workaround for the injury to Oscar Klefbom. The young defender ...

Rocky Mountain High
Things got a little crazy in the third period, and the MASH unit was busy mending blue all night long, but the Oilers won again and are now 8-2-1 under Ken Hitchcock. Music! We’re on to Winnipeg. Oscar is on to Edmonton, gone for weeks. Sad trombone. THE ATHLETIC! The Athletic Ed...

Game 31 2018-19: Oilers at Avalanche
The Edmonton Oilers hit the road in Denver tonight, the club leaving the city after a splendid weekend and two home victories. It occurs to me that now, today, this instant, might be the best moment the team and fans see this season. The wins have been terrific and the climb in the standings a [&...

For What It’s Worth
The Edmonton Oilers are 7-2-1 under Ken Hitchcock and playing a most disciplined style. Last night at Rogers, the club ignored the agitating Calgary Flames, who were less skilled than they could have been due to injury, suspension and curious personnel decisions. Instead of slashing and punching,...

Game 30 2018-19: Flames at Oilers
The first game between the Oilers and Calgary Flames came on October 22, 1980. Dave Semenko scored the first goal in what would become the most heated rivalry of the decade, Edmonton eventually winning 5-2 on two goals from Sammy, one from Kevin Lowe, another from Donny Murdoch. Paul Coffey chime...

McDavid Freeway
It was one of those nights for the Edmonton Oilers, everything clicks and let the good times roll. It’s been skin tight for 28 games, so a laugher came as a welcome bonus for team and fans (and it was closer than the score indicates through two, and beyond). McDavid had four points, Leon ha...
