@Support @KeyyiKeyi blocked me immediately after calling that user out for hacking my friend's account (and it is my friend's account. My friend wouldn't block me). Now this account involved in some phishing scam bullshit. Give my friend her account back!

I'm loving Levi! Quick legs, lightning glove hand, loves being an Oiler. 24 years young. I think the #Oilers have their goalie of the present and the future! Game changer

It's almost as if rushing home from work to fight rush hour + game day traffic to find expensive parking at an arena where concession prices are inflated through the roof to watch a team that had an early playoff exit last season has become less desirable than watching at home...

Official tonight attendance was 16,176. That is 2,171 empty seats. Ticket prices and playoff increases a factor for some season seat holders who didn’t renew.

That's the sentiment that a lot of people I know share. It's a lot of the same reasons downtown restaurants are closing. People are choosing the comfort of their homes over the discomfort of inconvenient locations, traffic/parking stress, and high food/drink prices.

McDavid puts on a show in game 800, love to see it! Levi with 38 saves, fantastic! I don't think there's any question about him being NHL ready now, he just needs to prove he can play at a high level for a full season. Loving his start #LetsGoOilers

Hallander is a solid bet for the Oilers' bottom six - Heavy Hockey Network

Last Saturday night, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reported that the Edmonton Oilers were looking at a “lateral trade” involving trading a depth defenceman

I hope this ends the Dach at C experiment. Too many legitimate NHL Cs on board to have a winger shift to the middle, even with the injuries

The #Oilers have activated forward Jason Dickinson from injured reserve (IR). Forward Colton Dach has been placed on IR.

This is the problem that has plagued the #Oilers through many coaching staff regimes now. Babcock isn't off to a great start in fixing it, but it's only been one game. He's at least aware of it. Let's see how quickly he can fix it if he can fix it.

"With our F3 and our D-man pinching we gave up eight odd-man rush chances last game. We obviously didn't do a good enough job teaching them, and we have to be better tonight," Babcock on opening night. @Sports1440

I see a top line, a 4th line without a true NHL C, and 2 more 4th lines. #Oilers have a legit 2nd line + Dickinson injured. Oy. It's gonna be a looooooooooong month in Oil Country.

Essentially the #Oilers have gone into LTIR so they can keep Michaels up. Nuge to IR creates the roster spot for Samanski. Samanski doesn't require waivers, so the emergency recall designation doesn't impact waivers eligibility for him.

The #Oilers have placed forward Ryan Nugent-Hopkins on injured reserve (IR). Forward Matt Savoie and defenceman Alec Regula have been placed on long-term injured reserve (LTIR). Forward Josh Samanski has been recalled under emergency conditions.

A wrong sighted. Not to slight Michaels, but Samanski deserves to be here, especially with the C injuries rn

New for @HeavyHockeyNet: A familiar starting point for Babcock's Oilers It's a new season under a new coach, but the #Oilers home opener had many familiar issues and storylines. #LetsGoOilers heavyhockey.com/2026/10/01/a…

In their 2026-27 season opener, the Edmonton Oilers scored five goals and got a combined eight points from Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Evan Bouchard.

Same old story for the #Oilers. Giveaways in the OZ, rush chances against, easy sailing through the NZ for opponents, sloppy goaltending. It's game 1 and it'll take time to get used to Babcock and the new system, but I'm not encouraged.

I was expecting a slow start for the #Oilers before this news. Hopefully Nuge isn't out long
