EDMONTON, AB – As part of the NHL's plans to honour its best players from the past 25 years, the Edmonton Oilers are pleased to unveil their Quarter Century Team.
On Thursday, the NHL revealed the Edmonton Oilers’ quarter-century team. The team is pretty split on the stars from today’s roster and players from earlier in the millennium.
Saad has been relegated to a bottom-six role in St. Louis, having been passed on the depth chart by former Oilers forward Dylan Holloway. He is coming off a 26-goal campaign with the Blues last season, and it still looks like he has the wheels to be an NHL player.
The Edmonton Oilers are climbing up the NHL standings, and it seems the Washington Capitals may have a new challenger for the top organization in the league. Let's take a look at just how far the Oilers moved up in the latest power rankings.
Connor McDavid scored in his return from a three-game suspension, Mattias Janmark scored for the first time in 38 games, and Mattias Ekholm scored into an empty net.
NHL insider Andy Strickland made a bombshell speculation that the Edmonton Oilers could land superstar forward Mikko Rantanen in free agency this summer.
The Edmonton Oilers welcome the rolling Detroit Red Wings to Rogers Place on Thursday, January 30, with the two clubs both sporting three-game winning streaks. Edmonton is a tough matchup for Detroit, and my Red Wings vs. Oilers predictions and NHL picks expect the Oil to make it four in a row convincingly tonight.
The biggest possible signing among Oilers prospects is Russian power winger Maxim Berezkin. I ranked him No. 3 on the winter edition of Edmonton’s top-20 prospect list based on size, skill and performance. He has scored 11-21-32 in 46 KHL games this season, and his free-agent window opens this spring.
The Edmonton Oilers are reportedly in discussion to sign free agent forward Brandon Saad, but they could lose him to another Canadian rival in the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Red Wings (24-21-5, 53 points) would tie Tampa Bay and Columbus for the final wild card spot with a win over the Oilers and a regulation loss by the Blue Jackets at Vegas, though technically Detroit would still trail based on points percentage and tiebreakers.
