Recently moved to Calgary and wanted to catch the next time the team is down here. Roster isn’t out but it was suggested in an interview with Bowman something along the lines of Howard and Samanski playing, so there’s that to look forward to!

Chat GPT actually came up with an impressive schedule of every Oilers game that airs and the ones that get blacked out or air on National TV

Any other Oilers fans in the US watching on ESPN?

According to Liam, Bedard isn’t a top 50 player because “Chicago hasn’t made the playoffs yet”

Another classic take.

So much discourse, dooming, controversy.

I am just excited to see a rested team take off with a big chip on their shoulders.

Most of all, I’m just excited to see Oilers hockey. I can’t be the only one, hey?

I lived in Edmonton for 22 years and am still a devoted fan. Some of you may have seen my original Oilers Game Day piece I drew back in 2011. I am now working on a new piece which intends to capture the whole history, including the new arena, the players in between the dynasty and Nuge and, of course, the guys who have represented the Oilers over the last 15 years. I can’t believe it’s been that long since I drew the first one!

Here is the arttwork mockup as well as how far along I’ve come in drawing it. Swipe left to see all images.

I want to draw real Oilers fans into it to make it authentic, so let me know if you want me to draw you in. No cost for that.

I might hold off finishing it until McDavid hoists the Cup as it would look so much better that way :)

Thank you very much to everyone who has supported my artwork over the past 16 years! :)

Offseason hockey is a reality TV show

The Leon one made me almost throw my phone across the room in a fit of rage

I'm sure you've all see the cropped version of this picture floating around, of Marner and McKenna. But look who was part of the crop!

Obviously Muskoka is the place to be in the offseason as there have been so many pictures of so many different players from that area.

Just kind of venting right now but why does the ice district website not include free shipping after a certain dollar amount?

Just seems super greedy on their end as the oilers are one of the richest organizations in hockey.

Get that puck! 

Lewandowski’s time with the WHL Saskatoon Blades showed real growth and maturity. He went from 0.75 points per game in his draft year to 1.14 points per game last season. Still only 19, standing 6-foot-2 with room to fill out (AHL site has him at 176 pounds), his single game with the Condors showed much of what made Lewandowski a quality junior should translate to pro hockey.

He never shies from contact, and works well along the wall. As a pro, he’s more likely to help his line secure pucks along the boards and find an outlet (he’s a good passer) than he will be driving to the net and looking for a pass. Lewandowski is a good skater and has improved in this area over the last year. He doesn’t shoot enough but finds the net often enough to suggest a 20-goal season in the AHL during his entry-level contract is possible.

Players who own similar attributes are marbled across most of the names Edmonton has drafted since the arrival of scouting director Rick Pracey. Here’s a quick description of the skaters chosen by the Oilers in the three most recent drafts.

Hey everyone,
Absolutely loving the McDavid/Draisaitl era, but staying up until 3:00 AM or 4:00 AM in the UK to watch games live is a serious health hazard! 😅

I'm trying to find other UK-based Oilers fans so we can suffer through the sleep deprivation together, talk about broadcast blackouts, and chat during the rare weekend matinee games.

If you're a British fan (or an expat living over here), we’ve set up a dedicated hub over at r/nhluk to coordinate watch-parties, discuss UK TV rights, and connect.

Also, recently we started The Hockey Chronicle, a weekly newsletter for UK NHL Fans, you can find it on r/nhluk!

Drop by and say hello so we know how many of us are awake in the middle of the night!

Concept I designed for the upcoming 2026 HTR Fanatics program.

Makar is getting $20.4 million

Bouchard get just over half of that at $10.5

Thoughts?

Speak your mind.

Obviously the 1st is Nuge. Fucking dawg can play in the 1st PP, 1st PK, and does fucking everything.

But who's the 2nd? Not necessarily to his high degree, but directly below him.

Is it Podkolzin? Savoie? Or Kapanen? & also, how would you rank these 3 after Nuge?
