The Vancouver Canucks swept the regular season series against the Edmonton Oilers this year. The Canucks outscored the Oilers 21-7 in those four games and 13-3 at 5v5.
The Los Angeles Kings were able to stick to their game plan enough to steal a 5-4 OT win from underneath the Edmonton Oilers. Getting a lead and keeping it is going to be a necessity for the Los Angeles Kings if they want to somehow upset the Edmonton Oilers in this series.
This time last year, I declared two things in an article at Oilersnation. The first was that I was going to do regular articles previewing the Edmonton Oilers playoff series with a focus on the tactics that would be deployed.
The 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs are exactly one week away. The Edmonton Oilers currently sit second in the Pacific Division, holding a record of 48-24-6.
Last season, in early January, the Oilers decided to recall defenceman Vinny Desharnais from the Bakersfield Condors. It was a big moment for the then-26-year-old from Laval, Quebec. He was on the verge of completing the rare path of seventh-round pick to NHL debut.
Of course, the Oilers will always want Connor McDavid in the lineup. He’s the best player in the world doing things few in the history of the game have done.
When the Oilers and Buffalo Sabres squared off 13 days ago, Edmonton blew an early lead only to lose the game in the shootout. Yeah, it’s fine to pick
Two weeks ago, the Edmonton Oilers rolled into Buffalo and lost a game they should have won. Edmonton got out to an early 2-0 lead thanks to first-period goals from Ryan McLeod and Warren Foegele but the Oilers weren’t able to close the door.
It’s not how you start, but how you end it, as the Oilers defeated the Buffalo Sabres at home by a score of 8-3. With the win, they now move to 88 points on the season, five ahead of the Los Angeles Kings for home ice in the first round.
The Edmonton Oilers, displaying their resilience, clinched an unconvincing 3-2 overtime win against the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night. Despite leading 2-0 after 40 minutes, the Oilers faced a tough challenge in the final period as the Habs fought back.
The Edmonton Oilers have scored 11 goals in their last two games and appear to be heating up just in time for the playoff stretch, led by their impact players.
I’m sorry Edmonton Oilers power play, I was not familiar with your game. After all, heading into last night’s game against the Washington Capitals, the Oilers top power play unit was on a 0-for-17 run.
Remember when the Oilers and Penguins met up at Rogers Place just a week ago? Our boys took charge, delivered a lopsided 6-1 win, and wrapped up what ended up as a perfect weekend.
It’s only 4 PM MT, but we’re already hours out from the Oilers’ 3-2 shootout loss to the Buffalo Sabres, and my anger has yet to subside
For the second straight game, the Oilers fell to a non-playoff team, as they lost by a score of 3-2 to the Buffalo Sabres. It was a low-scoring game that the Oilers should’ve won, but the Sabres ultimately managed to pull off a comeback.
The Edmonton Oilers have mixed up their lines ahead of Saturday morning’s game against the Buffalo Sabres, demoting Evander Kane to the third line and reuniting a line that worked earlier this season.
Checking in at #14 on the countdown of the biggest stories of the year here at Oilersnation are the quotes from Ryan McLeod when he talked about taking less money on his current $2.1 million AAV contract.
Ryan McLeod had a strong start to his career with the Edmonton Oilers. During his second season, he started to show some potential when he put up 21 points in 71 games.
As the Edmonton Oilers continue their woeful season with their 2-8-1 record, it’s becoming increasingly clear that their goal has shifted from Stanley Cup contention to the modest aim of simply making the playoffs, being second last in the Pacific Division.
McLeod was set for arbitration earlier this month, but avoids it with his new deal. He will be an RFA with arbitration rights when his contract expires in 2025.
Kurt Leavins of The Edmonton Journal writes that he has been hearing that the Edmonton Oilers and restricted free-agent center Ryan McLeod were closing in on a new contract, but that the goalposts might have moved.
The Edmonton Oilers moved forward Ryan McLeod to long-term injured reserve.
Ryan McLeod has been out since November with an undisclosed injury.
The Edmonton Oilers have placed center Ryan McLeod and winger Kailer Yamamoto on injured reserve. Yamamoto’s placement is retroactive to November 8th, the last time he’s gotten into NHL action.
As expected, the Edmonton Oilers have worked out a deal with restricted free agent Ryan McLeod, agreeing to a one-year, $798K contract.
