Social Corner is content that takes a break from news, statistics, and analysis and instead focuses on the human aspect of the game. Everything from what players do off the ice and away from the arena to what fans are coming up with on social media. If there’s a story the Internet is talking about, we’re going to cover it for you in a way that only the Nation can.
Friends, the NHL’s Last Man In voting for the All-Star Game closes on Thursday and that means we’ve only got a couple more days to flood the league’s site and send our man Leon Draisaitl to San Jose to rip up the three on three tournament with Connor McDavid. Oddly, the league chose to ignore…
Sometimes words aren’t enough, but I wanted to pass along a heartfelt thank you. In November of 2011, I came up with an idea to help others. It wasn’t a well thought out plan. I learned a lot along the way, but I was hoping through my platform, and some unique ideas, we could help…
From all of us at Oilersnation, I wanted to take a quick minute this morning to wish everyone a very Happy New Year. I hope that whatever you got up to last night when the clock struck midnight hasn’t handed you a hangover that will keep you frozen in your bed like a statue until the…
The year 2018 is wrapping up and we’ve seen some remarkable things from our captain.

Halloween has ended and that means November is here. The month is sometimes referred to as Mo-vember and is used as a springboard to try and bring men’s health issues to the forefront. What started out as a big push for prostate cancer and male depression awareness in Australia and New Zealand has grown to…

Remember when Connor McDavid got drafted into the NHL and he was a small, innocent child who wasn’t the greatest at taking faceoffs? He could skate laps around anybody he wanted to but unfortunately, winning faceoffs is something a person can’t just be genetically good at. Any rookie who comes into the league struggles with…
The Simpsons specials, candy corn, pumpkin spice, candy apples, that totally fake story about that one time that a guy put razor blades in a kids candy that definitely never happened but continues to live on and NHL players dressing up as other people and enraging/elating the masses. The Oilers held their own special night and…
Last night was a roller coaster of emotions. This morning I’m feeling generally happy, but still disappointed that the Oilers even HAD to come back from a three-goal deficit. The comeback was incredible and I love everything again, but it’s hard to forget about those first two periods. Anyways, back to positives. A lot of “firsts”…
