Ryan Nugent-Hopkins: The Unexpected Season
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is having one the most unexpected offensive seasons in NHL history. His second career five-point night pushed him to 96 points and he needs four points in the final seven games to reach 100 for the first time in his career. When he reaches the Century mark, he will be the sixth player in NHL history to do it for the first time in his 12th campaign or later. He will join: Gordie Howe: 23rd season, 1968-69. Johnny Bucyk: 16th season, 1970-71. Steven Stamkos: 14th season, 2021

Oilersnation Everyday: Getting it done in Vegas
The Edmonton Oilers went into the T-Mobile Arena with a purpose and came out with a result. It was a back-and-forth first period as far as goals were concerned, but the Oilers were able to grab a chokehold on the matchup in the second period when they put three past Jonathan Quick. The Golden Knights pulled Quick in the second intermission, each team scored one more in the third with the Oilers coming out on top by a 7-4 final. With the win, Edmonton now sits three points back of Vegas for firs

The early days of Edmonton Oilers prospect Carl Berglund
Not every player gets a direct path to the NHL. Some players have to work their way through a variety of leagues to get to the show. Those guys can typically be some of the hardest workers around. Carl Berglund was one of those players that took the path less travelled. He is a Swedish-born forward, who played in his home country with Farjestads Junior program. Shortly after, he joined Sioux Falls in the USHL and played 37 games there before heading to UMass-Lowell spending four seasons and be

Baggedmilk on #theLOCKERROOM: The Oilers hunt for the Pacific Division lead and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins
Happy Wednesday, Internet friends, and welcome to yet another chapter of your ol’ pal Baggedmilk’s adventures in radio. As I do every week, I jumped on the air with the boys on The Locker Room for a quick segment to talk about the Oilers while also offering my takes on anything else that’s going on in the world. To kick off this week’s segment, we got started with another look at Jack Campbell after another game where he allowed four+ goals on Monday against the Coyotes but still manage

Oilers still have outside shot of taking top spot in Western Conference
The Edmonton Oilers are far from locked into a Pacific Division matchup when it comes to the opening round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. In fact, the Oilers could be wise to keep a keen eye on that Western Conference wild card situation that’s been bubbling between the Winnipeg Jets, Calgary Flames, and Nashville Predators. Because, at least in theory, Connor McDavid’s crew could vault themselves to the top of the West in time for an opening-round showdown against the last entrant into the

NHL Wednesday best bets: Expect a tight affair in Colorado
We split our best bets on Tuesday night. The Oilers cruised to a multi-goal victory in Vegas, but the Canucks couldn't convert a plus-19 chance differential into a win. We'll set our sets on three more plays - a total and two props - for Wednesday night's small slate of games. Wild (+135) @ Avalanche (-155) This is a titanic divisional clash between the Central's top two teams. The Wild currently hold top spot but sit just one point ahead of the Avalanche, who also have an extra game in their b

Thrasher
The Edmonton Oilers kicked out the jams, murdered the schedule loss and skated through tired legs last night on the way to what might have been the biggest win of the NHL season. The team was strong from beginning to end, with only bouncing pucks and glaring errors allowing the Vegas Golden Knights to stay within striking distance. Even that became a distant bell when the visitors delivered an epic second period, absolutely putting the boots to the top team in the Pacific. What does it mean
