Oilers add toughness to 4th line, can’t stop there
The Edmonton Oilers aren’t exactly hard to play against, and that certainly isn’t anything you haven’t heard before.

Richard Cloutier: Predicting The Biggest Oilers Trade Since Gretzky
I said a few blogs ago I was going to share with you a theory as to a huge Oilers move to occur during the Summer of 2013.

One more thing: Tootoo drops gloves with Fistric
Although the Predators were saying all of the right things leading up to their contest with the Dallas Stars, you figured someone would stand up to Stars defenseman Mark Fistric for his hit on Shea Weber in their last meeting on December 23rd. To no one’s surprise, Jordin Tootoo met the challenge head-on less than two minutes into the game.Before the official dropped the puck...
