Oilers

Une note pour chaque joueur en fonction de sa performance depuis le début de la saison. Jay Woodcroft, derrière le banc des Oilers, regarde le tableau ...

Il a inscrit son premier but de la saison le 9 décembre, à son 16e match (il en a raté 11 en raison d’une blessure). On lui a donné plusieurs chances de se faire valoir au sein d’un des deux premiers trios, mais il n’a su en profiter et se retrouve maintenant au sein du troisième trio. Les Oilers entament la deuxième moitié de saison lundi à Los Angeles. Son différentiel de +2 montre qu’il a été sur la patinoire pour deux buts de plus des siens que de l’adversaire, une mince consolation. Il était un des joueurs les plus importants de l’équipe avant de subir une blessure qui lui a fait rater 13 matchs. Il compte également 24 aides, soit 3 de moins que la saison dernière, qui était la meilleure saison de sa carrière à ce chapitre. Il grimpe au cinquième rang si on considère le nombre de mises en échec par 60 minutes avec 15,84. Compte tenu de ce qu’on lui demande, il effectue généralement un bon travail, mais il a tendance à prendre des risques sur la patinoire et cela se retourne contre lui à l’occasion. Il n’a joué que 23 matchs, mais occupe tout de même le 59e rang parmi les défenseurs de la ligue avec 61 mises en échec. Il n’a disputé que 15 matchs, mais il domine les défenseurs des Oilers pour le nombre de tirs bloqués par 60 minutes avec 5,19. Sa fiche depuis le début de la saison est de 12-10-2., Skinner devait être le réserviste de Néanmoins, il est parmi les meneurs de la LNHau chapitre des tirs bloqués avec 76 (24e).

After a disappointing home stand, the Edmonton Oilers hit the ice in California and Nevada this week, where they hope to keep rolling on the road.

If you're in the playoffs, you're going to be in situations where you have two-goal leads and you have to learn how to defend it and how to play against a good team that's going to push," forward Zach Hyman said on Saturday.

The Kings scored four powerplay goals and added an even-strength marker to defeat the Oilers. Kailer Yamamoto, Ryan McLeod, and Connor McDavid got the goals for ...

Or is the plan to wait for our prospects to develop? - The loss against Colorado showed that the team can’t rely solely on their power play to win games. Tonight’s loss showed that the team can’t rely on simply showing up to win games. Yet, on review, it was deemed that Campbell’s glove was across the line with the puck in it. The Oilers had a chance to tie things up but took a too-many-men penalty to negate it. - Out of all the disappointments, I thought Broberg-Bouchard looked ok. Connor McDavid roared right back for the Oilers. Absolute domination by the Kings. 2-1 game late in the first. Predictably enough, LA scored on that chance as Kempe beat Skinner on a five-hole. Kailer Yamamoto got one back for the Oilers just seconds after the team’s second PP expired. Kailer Yamamoto, Ryan McLeod, and Connor McDavid got the goals for Edmonton.

LOS ANGELES — As the Edmonton Oilers returned to Staples Center for the first time since breaking through their post-season glass ceiling last year, ...

They are pretty much back to health now, except for the massive crater left behind by Evander Kane, who is still at least a month away. “I thought we learned a lot about different people and found ways to win hockey games and be in the position we’re in right now while weathering that storm.” “As the season goes on there is more emphasis down the stretch on five-on-five,” agreed Woodcroft. The focus will have to be on Edmonton’s five-on-five play, which remains a gaping black hole. Indeed, the Oilers have no time whatsoever to reflect on how far they’ve come as a team and an organization. We’re in a dogfight right now for points every night.”

The Oilers are in Los Angeles to take on the Kings tonight. Selected 183rd overall in 2016, Desharnais played four years for Providence College, then one in the ECHL, and two more in the AHL before earning his first NHL deal. [Darnell Nurse](https://www.hockey-reference.com/players/n/nurseda01.html?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.prohockeyrumors.com&utm_campaign=2023-01-09_hr) to play more than 28 minutes. Racking up 27 points in 66 games, he led the entire league in +/- with a +36 rating. The team had seven defensemen dressed, but still relied on This year hasn’t been quite as good, with Desharnais recording just two points in 13 games, but it isn’t his offense that the team needs.

The Edmonton Oilers announced on Monday afternoon that the 6'7″ defender has been recalled from the Bakersfield Condors of the AHL…

This season, Desharnais has appeared in just 13 games for the Condors because of a wrist injury that he suffered back before the start of training camp. East-west attacks give him challenges and players who put the puck into the triangle between his feet and stick do as well.His passing skills will be challenged as well at this level. The Oilers selected him in the seventh round of the 2016 NHL Draft following his freshman season with Providence College. That season, Desharnais played 31 games in the ECHL and six with the Condors in the AHL. The 2021-22 season was Desharnais’ breakout campaign as a prospect. He scored five goals and 27 points over the course of 66 games while posting a plus-36 rating while playing largely on Bakersfield’s top defensive pairing.

Oilers 3, Kings 6 On a night that all 3 other NHL games ended in a shutout for the visiting team by a combined 11 goals to 0, Edmonton Oilers had no such ...

Played 8:45 on the PP during which the Oilers scored 0 goals, and 1:59 on the PK during which the Kings scored 3. On the ice for 2 PPGA but had little to do with either. Played a role in the build-up to the first Oilers goal then scored the second himself with some nifty patience around the blue paint. The bad is that the Oil got lit up for 3 powerplay goals during the scant 1:24 he played on the PK, with Yamamoto being among the defensive culprits on all 3 of those goals. On the second, Alex Iafollo’s breakaway in the third, he got a big piece of it but wasn’t able to keep it out of the net at a time his teammates desperately needed the big save. Played 12½ minutes and was directly involved in 0 Grade A shots at either end of the sheet. Was unable to clean up the mess after Ceci’s stumble on the 5-2 and the subsequent breakaway goal put the game beyond reach. Burned on 3 Grade A shots at evens without creating a lot at the good end. But took 2 other penalties for tripping and hooking and in both cases took the Skate Of Shame back to his bench within seconds. Played just 8:01 with 0 shot attempts, and 0 goals scored at either end of the rink. Had a malfunction at the junction on the 5-2, in which his stumble at the blueline turned what seemed a routine 2v2 into a breakaway. The game was the polar opposite of the prior game between the Pacific Division rivals in Edmonton, in which Hudson Bay rules were the order of the day and virtually nothing got called.

The LA Kings skated to a 6-3 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Monday evening at Crypto.com Arena, beginning a four-game homestand with a win.

– Kevin Fiala (2-2-4) registered his fifth career 4+ point game and second with the Kings (0-4-4 on Nov. – The Kings scored four power-play goals in a single game for the first time since April 5, 2012. I thought at the beginning of the year, our whole team played to score, now we’re playing to win and we’re finally getting it. We lacked a little bit of both of those earlier in the year. It’s a whole unit job, all five of us on the ice and obviously the goalie too, but through the neutral zone, trying to slow them down as much as we can and then in the d-zone, I’m basically just following them around if I can, when I’m on the ice. PK is a lot about will, and it’s not that we weren’t using it at the beginning, we were trying our hardest, but I think we have more of a willingness to block shots, battle harder for loose pucks to get them 200 feet. Right now, we’re pretty good, we’ve played pretty good, we’re climbing the ladder in the standings, so it’s kind of a bonus. The McDavid goal brought the visitors back to within two goals on the evening. The hosts collected a big insurance goal early in the third period, through forward Alex Iafallo, to extend his team’s lead to three goals. The Swede struck again just past the midway point of the middle stanza, with an official review confirming a good goal for the Kings. First, with the Kings on the man advantage, Fiala one-timed a cross-ice feed from Kempe past Edmonton netminder Stuart Skinner on the glove side for his fourth goal in four periods. Immediately after a power play had expired, with the Kings getting the kill, the visitors capitalized on a double deflection.

If you want to beat the Oilers, the formula is simple – shut down Connor McDavid, shut down Leon Draisaitl and shut down the power play.

Meanwhile, there are a host of former Western and Ontario League players who are simply not physically engaged enough on a team that would do well to get its hands dirty more often. “It’s getting faster, but I think we need a little more grit from our team.” On the physicality side of things, we were right there.” “It’s a game we want back on the PK,” admitted Oilers' Derek Ryan. How about the penalty kill step up and take care of the other team’s power play? Because he simply does not have a team that can check its way to a win or penalty kill itself out of trouble.

A penalty-filled affair results in four PPGs for the home side and none for the visitors as Edmonton opens its road trip with a divisional defeat.

I thought we carried majority of the play and had some good looks, good zone time, and the penalty kill just couldn't get it done." I'd also say that we had some good hits on some of their skilled players in legal fashion.I thought on the physicality side of things, we were right there and it's nice to see some guys step up with that. The score sheet will say he let two goals in, but he made a huge save on that one that was overturned and called the goal in the penalty box there. "I think a bit of both for sure. I thought that was the difference in the game." I thought we had some very good looks that we got and we weren't sharp enough on some of our offensive opportunities. I thought they were calling it pretty tight." Kempe's 3-1 goal prompted the Oilers coaches to pull Skinner and replace him with birthday boy Jack Campbell, who proceeded to make what appeared to be a highlight-reel glove save on Kempe at the 11:38 mark of the middle frame with the Kings on yet another power play. Oh, and he was also coming off a hat-trick performance against the Vegas Golden Knights on Saturday. Down 2-1 through 20 minutes, the Oilers were back on the PP 1:33 into the middle frame, but the advantage was cut short when they were called for too many men. It was penalties aplenty for both teams at Crypto.com Arena, but especially for the visitors who were dealt seven minors as opposed to six for the Kings. "There were a lot of calls both ways and we went 0-for-6 on our power play and they scored four on their power play, four on seven.
