Molly Tucker+FollowOilers Eye Lindgren: Goalie Upgrade Coming?Looks like the Oilers are finally making moves to fix their crease! Rumor has it they're considering a swap: sending Pickard and some picks to the Caps for Charlie Lindgren. Lindgren's been a steady backup out east and could take some pressure off Skinner. Is this the answer to the Oilers’ goalie woes in the McDavid era? Maybe not the final piece, but it’s a step in the right direction. What do you think—does Lindgren move the needle for the Oil? #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers00Share
Jordan Leblanc+FollowCould Oilers Use LTIR Like Cup Champs?Fellow Oilers fans, are we about to see McJesus and the Big German get the same playoff boost that helped Tampa, Vegas, and Florida? David Staples says Edmonton’s aging core and inevitable injuries could open the door for Ken Holland to work some LTIR magic at the deadline. It’s not shady—just smart cap strategy. Could this be the year we finally break through? #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers00Share
DreamDazzler+FollowWalman deserves the bag—sign him now!Jake Walman just silenced every doubter in Oil Country. The guy came in with question marks, but his gritty, no-nonsense D and slick puck movement made him a beast on the blue line. Pairing him with Bouchard? Straight fire—those two locked down the zone like it was Fort Knox. Forget the age talk; if you don’t lock up a defender playing this well, what are we even doing? Get this extension done before someone else wises up. Who else thinks Walman’s earned every penny of that long-term deal? #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers00Share
Phillip Scott+FollowMcDavid’s Next Move: Short Deal, Big Bucks?Looks like Captain Connor is shaking up the contract game! NHL insiders are buzzing that McDavid might skip the usual 8-year mega-deal and instead sign a 4-year pact worth at least $16M per season. That keeps the Oilers’ window open but gives McDavid flexibility if Edmonton can’t deliver a Cup. Do you think this short-term play puts more pressure on the Oil or just gives McDavid more control? #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers10Share
Christopher Li+FollowOilers Shake Up Goalie Coaching—Will It Work?After two tough Cup Final losses to the Cats, the Oilers finally made a move to fix their biggest Achilles’ heel: inconsistent goaltending. Stuart Skinner’s hot-and-cold playoff runs (.889 SV%) and Pickard’s similar stats have fans debating if new goalie coach Peter Aubry can really steady the crease. Can Aubry unlock Skinner’s best when it matters most, or will the Oil stay stuck in neutral? Let’s hear your takes, Oil Country! #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers00Share
Sherri West+FollowBig Shakeup Behind the Oilers’ BenchWow, Oil Country! After back-to-back heartbreaks against the Panthers, the Oilers aren’t just tweaking the roster—they’ve totally revamped Kris Knoblauch’s coaching crew. Hall of Famer Paul Coffey heads back upstairs, and goalie coach Dustin Schwartz is out after Skinner’s tough playoff run. Now, all eyes are on Peter Aubry to fix the crease. Do you think these changes finally push McDavid & Co. over the top next season? #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers23Share
stacy28+FollowOilers’ New Core Four: Boom or Bust?With King Connor and Leon the Lion leading Edmonton’s fresh 'Core Four,' Oil Country is buzzing—yet anxious. After back-to-back Cup heartbreaks, fans are wondering: can this star-studded group finally deliver, or will their massive contracts squeeze out the depth needed for a true run? The Maple Leafs’ own Core Four era fizzled, and now the pressure’s on Oilers scouts to find hidden gems and develop them fast. Is this the start of a dynasty, or a cap-space trap? #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers00Share
Jordan Leblanc+FollowOilers’ Crease Crisis: Delia Heads to SwedenBig news for Oil Country: Collin Delia, last year’s AHL backup, is off to Sweden’s Brynas IF. With Delia gone, the Oilers’ goalie depth just got even thinner. After bouncing around the NHL, Delia’s taking his first shot overseas, teaming up with Erik Kallgren. Meanwhile, Edmonton’s netminding puzzle remains unsolved—will they finally find a steady partner for McDavid’s Cup dreams? Let’s hear your takes on who should step up in the blue paint! #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers00Share
Christopher Li+FollowHyman’s Absence Haunts Oilers in Cup LossTough break for the Oilers as Zach Hyman, their playoff goal machine, had to watch the Cup Final rematch with the Panthers from the press box after that brutal wrist injury. Hyman admitted feeling totally helpless, especially as the Oil just couldn’t match Florida’s depth without him. It’s hard not to wonder if things would’ve been different with him in the lineup. The good news? Hyman’s aiming to be back for opening night, ready to chase the Cup with McDavid and Draisaitl again. #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers20Share
Molly Tucker+FollowOilers Add Tomkins—But Is It Enough in Net?So the Oilers finally made a move for a goalie, bringing in Matt Tomkins from the Crunch. But let’s be real—most of Oil Country isn’t exactly celebrating. Tomkins has decent AHL numbers, but fans are asking if he’s really an upgrade over Skinner or Pickard. With cap space tight, maybe this is just about depth, but the chatter is all about whether this fixes the crease or just adds another question mark. Thoughts on Tomkins as the answer? #Sports #IceHockey #LetsGoOilers00Share
