JEFF PETRY RUMORS & GOSSIP
HE'S GOT THE MOVES
Datsyuk undresses defender, scores
Jeff Petry might want to file sexual harassment charges because Pavel Datsyuk absolutely undressed him. At the 3:39 mark of OT Pavel Datsyuk took pass from Johan Franzen and really did what he does best, making the opposing defense look silly to eventually light the lamp giving the Wings a 3-2 win. After being down 2-0 it looked like the Wings were on their way to their 4th straight...
Jeff Petry scores on his own team against Detroit Red Wings
Late in the third period the Edmonton Oilers were up 2-1 when the Detroit Red Wings went on the powerplay. The Red Wings had been struggling to get scoring chances all night, but after Niklas Kronwall fired a shot on net the rebound kicked right out to Oilers defenseman Jeff Petry. Petry, like many defenseman before him, wanted desperately to clear the puck out of the zone but...
Richard Cloutier: Petry Sittin' Purty; Dubey is Scooby
On Thursday, Oilers GM Steve Tambellini locked up two key players when he re-signed goaltender Devan Dubnyk and defenseman Jeff Petry to two-year deals. Set Dubnyk's cap hit to $3.5mil per season, and Petry at $1.75mil per. Good deals?
Not bad.
I think it's an overpayment for Dubnyk, but at least the signing clears up any confusion that could exist as to what the plan...
Oilers re-sign Dubnyk, Petry
The Edmonton Oilers re-signed restricted free-agent goalie Devan Dubnyk and defenseman Jeff Petry to two-year deals Thursday, and agreed to a one-year deal with left winger Dane Byers.
Dubnyk won 20 games in 47 appearances for the Oilers last season. The 6-foot-5 goalie had a 2.67 goals-against average and .914 save percentage.
Petry had two goals and 23 assists in 73 games for...

Richard Cloutier: At What Point Do the Fans Matter?
Theo Peckham and Jeff Petry were awful. Devan Dubnyk looked great for most of the game, but let a back-breaking terrible goal that sank his team. The Oilers D as a group couldn't get out of their own zone with the puck. Ales Hemsky played disinterested hockey. Shawn Horcoff had Horcoff Hands. The line full of kids got pushed around, because no matter how talented they are, they...
Richard Cloutier: Somewhat Damaged
The Flames are an awful hockey team. So why do we keep losing to them?
It helps when your defense bothers to show up. At least two of the goals against the Oilers on Saturday were caused by brutal plays by Jeff Petry in the defensive zone. As bad as Petry played, there is plenty of humble pie to go around. The Oilers D looked scrambled and uncertain for most of the game. Have...
His Bite Is Worse than His Barker
When Steve Tambellini signed Cam Barker this summer, we knew what the Oilers were getting based on resume. His recent injury then should be considered a stroke of good luck? In the July 2nd post I linked to above, this was the main issue:Did he ever--at any time--play tough minutes in the NHL? No. He didn't in Minnesota and in Chicago they always had a better option. Whatever...
Oilers recall Petry
General Manager Steve Tambellini announced today the Edmonton Oilers have recalled defenceman Jeff Petry from Oklahoma City of the American Hockey League.
Petry, 23, has played in three games with the Oilers this season recording two penalty mi...
Oilers on the Move and Roster Updates
The Edmonton Oilers have made a couple of moves this week; sending defenceman Jeff Petry to the Oklahoma Barons of the AHL and have recalled right winger Ryan Keller.
Petry is being sent to Oklahoma City to play more minutes, especially since the Barons are missing injured defenceman Taylor Fedun. Fedun broke his femur during a pre-season game in St. Paul Minnesota against the...
Petry Demoted
Jeff Petry was sent down today by the Edmonton Oilers. The "victim of a numbers game" is one of the six best defensemen available when all are healthy, but is also the one blue who is not waiver eligible. Oiler defenders who could reasonably be placed below Petry on a true depth chart would include Theo Peckham and Cam Barker. The Oilers top 6D are probably Ryan Whitney...
