Last week, Dustin Neilson wrote a good piece on some teams that would potentially be interested in Jesse Puljujarvi this summer. After reading it, I started to think about what kind of deal the Oilers could make if or when they deal the former fourth overall pick.
“The NHL is a copycat league.” We’ve all heard it before and it’s become a bit of a cliche but it’s true. A big, heavy team wins the Cup and we hear about how teams need to get more grit in their lineup and then the next year. A skilled team like the Penguins captures…
It’s Thursday! That means it’s another opportunity to dig around the NHL and discuss some rumours that could have an effect on the Oilers offseason plans. This week, there a lot speculation and for the most part, it’s really dividing the Oilers fan base.
There are plenty of holes on the Oilers roster that Ken Holland must fill if he wants the Oilers to be a playoff contender next season. A lot has been written about finding goaltending, acquiring a scoring winger or two, and even taking a shot at a high-end defenseman, but not a lot of people…
Another Thursday, which means another week of rumour talk here at Oilersnation. As I do every week, I’ll be going around the NHL and digging up some spicy rumours and discuss how they could impact the Edmonton Oilers.

This week, I’m focusing on some the potential destination of a big name and a nixed trade involving another high-end player and how those two pieces of news affect the Oilers.
Every Friday, I’ve been going through different groups of teams that the Oilers could potentially target as trade partners this summer. While I’m not convinced the Oilers will be particularly busy this summer, there are some teams out there that are no doubt open for business.
Welcome back to our weekly look at the NHL’s rumour mill here on Oilersnation. Last week I dug into some trade talk surrounding defensemen who could be moved this summer. This week, we’re going all over the place, starting with a look at Frank Seravalli’s Trade Bait Board, which you can find HERE.
In part one of my trade targets series, I took a look at some teams that are currently heading towards the rebuilding process. This week, I’m looking at a handful of teams who are really tight up against the salary cap and could be forced to move on from some talented young players this summer….
Welcome to our weekly rumour recap on Oilersnation! Every week, I’ll scour the web and Twitter pages of various beat reporters from around the NHL to bring you some rumours involving other NHL teams and how they could affect the Oilers.
