Savoie only has four points in 18 games but the Oilers need to stay the course with the young winger.

A shakeup trade that addresses goaltending may be spendy, in assets out, in pretzel cap, or both.

The Oilers are familiar with the gales of November. Does Stan Bowman need to shake up the roster?

Connor McDavid is slated to play with Leon Draisiatl at five-on-five tonight. Why would Kris Knoblauch do that? Here's why.

Some fans I talk to are worried about Connor McDavid's offensive output this season at five-on-five. However, he's scoring more per hour in all game states this year. Regression will come at five-on-five. Betting against 97 remains a bad idea.

For many years, management was the Pakleds ("we look for things that make us go") and that was followed by a decade of "I want it, I'll buy it no matter the price!" Early days, but Bowman's measured approach is a breath of fresh air.
