Last night at Rogers Place, the Edmonton Oilers finished off the Los Angeles Kings to wrap up their first-round series in only five games.

What's funny to me about this year's series is that I actually t...

The Edmonton Oilers made a handful of moves at the 2024 NHL Trade Deadline, but they weren't able to plug all of the holes they probably have. That left many Oilers fans wanting and wishing Ken Holland was able to do more than pick up Adam Henrique, Sam Carrick, and Troy Stecher. Were there even options for him to upgrade beyond those three? Were there deals they should have been in on? I gave my...

Earlier today, we lost Brownlee to a heart attack and I wanted to jump on and record something quickly about what he meant to me personally and how much he helped guide my career along. While many may remember him as the crusty writer you argued with online, he was also...
