The NHL trade deadline is February 27th. It is two and a half weeks away. One of the big name players who is likely to be moved is Ales Hemsky of the Edmonton Oilers.

In last Thursday's 8-4 win over Chicago, Edmonton's Sam Gagner officially racked up an eight-point night with four goals and four assists, all in the final two periods. It was the first eight-point game in the NHL since Pittsburgh's Mario Lemieux did it on Dec. 31, 1988, against New Jersey.
Replays later showed Gagner should have had only had seven points because he...

We met Central Michigan senior Jake Taylor this morning on YouTube. It seems he was up to his normal superfan routine the other night at a CMU women’s basketball game when some photojournalism student bothered him with a media request. Jake isn’t your normal superfan who only bandwagons the men’s team. He’s out there causing havoc at women’s games with...

Edmonton Oilers forward Ryan Smyth has plenty of playoff experience and plays a gritty style of hockey that’s perfectly suited for the post-season. So it is no surprise that, as ESPN’s Scott Burnside...

Very quick blog for now; please forgive. I'll write something longer and much more interesting after tonight's Oilers/Wings tilt. Here's a few quick notes to keep you entertained in the mean time.
Are They In or Out?
Hearing again Detroit will be looking close at Ales Hemsky during tonight's game. The reason? The Wings have been trying to acquire a big, meaty...

In Wednesday night hockey action, Sam Gagner beat the Detroit Red Wings 2-0. Unfortunately, the rest of the Oilers lost to the Detroit Red Wings by 0-4.
Here's a bunch of random comments on the frustration that is the Edmonton Oilers.
- Eberle is in the Top 10 in league scoring, and Sam Gagner is ripping up the NHL right now. Yet, five Oiler forwards had more ice-time during...

Oilers lose 4-2 to Red Wings
At least Sam Gagner has been on fire lately. With two goals from Gagner, the Oilers may have been shutout by the hockey giant Red Wings. But, thankfully for the Oilers, Gagner has been incredible lately. Incredible enough to make many forget then he only had 5 goals up until a week ago. Now, he has 11.
