Game Notes Oilers @ Coyotes: Which Goalie Starts?

Who will Jay Woodcroft start in goal tonight in Arizona? The answer might not be as straightforward as you think. — The Oilers play the Coyotes tonight and are in Vegas tomorrow. The Coyotes are 27th in the NHL while Vegas is fourth, and I can see the reasoning to start the backup, Jack Campbell, tonight and then Stuart Skinner tomorrow. However, the Oilers are only three points ahead of Seattle (Kraken have a game in hand), and they need at least one win in the next two games. You could sta

Game 74 2022-23: Oilers at Coyotes

Game 74 2022-23: Oilers at Coyotes

Everyone is winning, the Oilers could lock in as the No. 3 team in the Pacific by the end of the week, and then it’s a matter of finding out who wins the division. At this point, my money is on the Los Angeles Kings, meaning Vegas Golden Knights would be the opponent. Does it matter? I think it does, the Kings have the same look now (different style, same look) as they did in 2012. You may recall the Kings rolled over a strong Vancouver Canucks team that spring four games to one. At s

NHL Monday player props: Draisaitl on the prowl

Many of the league's best shot generators are set to take the ice Monday night. Let's take a look at three worth backing. Carter Verhaeghe over 3.5 shots (-140) Verhaeghe is firing the puck from anywhere and everywhere. He has amassed 45 shots on goal and 79 attempts over the last 10 games. Those totals are good for first on a Panthers team that generates an insane amount of shot volume almost every single night. The bar to clear is high, and Verhaeghe's doing it. Unsurprisingly, all that volum

Sunday Scaries: Scoreboard watching, turnovers, and that new jersey deal

In a week of western opponents with major playoff implications, every point matters. This week the oilers took in the San Jose Sharks, the Arizona Coyotes, and then finally, the Vegas Golden Knights. Of course, in true Oilers fashion the only game of those three that they dropped, was the most important one. The game against the Sharks was a depth-scoring & defenceman’s affair for the Edmonton Oilers that saw two goals from Mattias Janmark, one from each of Yamamoto and Bjugstad, and fina

Ryan McAllister has lit the NCAA world on fire this season. In his first season with the University of Western Michigan, McAllister scored 13 goals and 49 points as a freshman in 39 games played – the sixth most points in college.
