Vasily Podkolzin's recent surge is transforming a former draft pick into an affordable scoring threat and penalty-killing force.

Leon Draisaitl is the latest member of the NHL's 1,000-point club, and his Edmonton Oilers teammates pulled out all the stops to celebrate.

With one victory secured to open a five-game homestand that leads into the NHL's holiday break, the Boston Bruins get ready for another Western Conference test as they welcome the surging Edmonton Oilers on Thursday.

The Fife Flyers of the Elite Ice Hockey League (EIHL) have announced that they have signed Lucic for the remainder of the 2025-26 season. With this, the former Oilers winger is officially taking his talent overseas.

With Connor McDavid gifting the Oilers with a cap-friendly two-year extension that kicks in after this season. Basically, all of the $4 million, or so, he graciously left on the table each year to help the Oilers in their quest for a Stanley Cup, will be eaten up by Frederic’s whale of a deal.

I wish we played them two or three weeks ago when they were struggling,” joked Marco Sturm about facing the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday.

McDavid was an iffy defender early in his career, then he trended up in the early 2020s, becoming much better at limiting his mistakes on defence, the lost battles, missed assignments and turnovers that tend to result in Grade A shots against.

The Pittsburgh Penguins will look to stop the bleeding against the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night.
