Oilers Get Business Done: Arvidsson, Brown, Perry, Janmark, Skinner Inked

July 1, 2024 - 3:19 PM ET

UPDATE 3 Oilers continue to get things done under Jeff Jackson. Oilers signed Corey Perry to a new one year deal (1.45 million), Janmark to a 3 year deal (1.45AAV), and now Jeff Skinner to a one year deal worth 3 million. Let's focus on the Skinner deal for a second. This is a real nice piece...

A Deeper Dive Into A Fantastic July 1st

July 2, 2024 - 3:30 PM ET

A "win" to me yesterday for the Edmonton Oilers would have been finding a way to bring back Janmark and Brown on the cheap, sign one top six forward to play with Draisaitl, and maybe a depth centre and defensemen to round out the roster. That is what I expected to be on the table with an Oilers team...

Oilers Trade McLeod - Get Matthew Savoie in Return

July 5, 2024 - 8:12 PM ET

Just reported by Elliotte Friedman, the Edmonton Oilers have traded Ryan McLeod to the Buffalo Sabres. No word yet on the return but going to assume it is a draft pick. The 24 year old has scored 32 goals and 75 points in 219 games with the Edmonton Oilers. A talented and fast centre, McLeod has bee...

Revisiting My 23/24 BOLD Predictions

July 11, 2024 - 4:47 PM ET

Every year prior to the start of the season I make ten bold predictions for the Edmonton Oilers on the upcoming season and after the season finishes I look back at them and see how close I was. Some times I'm bang on, sometimes I miss the mark by a hair, and other times I'm just flat out wrong. Let'...

Weak Pacific May Be Opportunity For Kraken

July 15, 2024 - 2:45 PM ET

I haven't loved the moves that the Seattle Kraken made this off-season. Running back essentially the same team as last year with the additions of Stephenson and Montour doesn't instill confidence to me that this is a playoff bound roster. Right now, here is the potential depth chart for the Krake...

How To Get The Oilers Cap Compliant

July 16, 2024 - 5:02 PM ET

In my last blog, a very concerned Oilers fan asked me about how the Oilers will manage to be cap compliant, prior to the season starting. The Oilers as of today sit $354,167 over the cap and still need to sign both Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg. Let's start by signing both of these players....

Oilers Hire Stan Bowman As GM - Proving The NHL Remains Garbage

July 24, 2024 - 3:21 PM ET

I spent a solid ten minutes trying to come up with a punchy title to really reflect my thoughts here. Then I realized it didn't need to be punchy, there is no place for wit or a fun play on words. The NHL continues to showcase that hockey is in fact not for everyone and that individuals, that in any...

More Thoughts On The Oilers New GM + A Correction

July 25, 2024 - 4:08 PM ET

Follow me on Twitter @SMaloughney For starters, I need to state I made a mistake in my blog yesterday. I wrote about how Stan Bowman, who was complicit in the Kyle Beach sexual assault and assaults of a high school and university student, had written a letter of recommendation for Brad Aldrich afte...
