Phoenix Coyotes' Gilbert Brule hoping change of scenery pays off

A score of injuries, an inconsistent spot in the lineup and a lack of confidence have haunted Gilbert Brule.

More of the Same

The Detroit Red Wings were in Glendale Thursday night to face the slumping Coyotes. This must be one of Detroit’s favorite road trips. The weather is sunny and 70s, the crowd has a huge percentage of Red Wings fans, and they win. Detroit has now won 8 of their last 9 road games against Phoenix, including knocking the Coyotes out of the playoffs each of the last two seasons with...

Kings GM Dean Lombardi apologizes to Edmonton, NHL for MulletGate outrage

It was affectionately referred to as "MulletGate." When the Los Angeles Kings traded Ryan Smyth back to his home and native land last summer, the Edmonton Oilers sent back a seventh-round pick and center Colin Fraser on June 26. The initial deal was for Gilbert Brule, but his concussion prevented the Kings from buying out his contract as planned. Fraser was moved into the...

Richard Cloutier: Does Brule's Loss = A Multi-Player Trade?

Thanks to the Phoenix Coyotes picking Gilbert Brule from the Oilers on re-entry waivers, the Oil are down to 48 contracts. Was that the plan all along? It was fairly obvious to me Brule was going to be picked off of waivers. He's a former high draft pick, and a player who had at least one decent season in the NHL. He's also young enough to have plenty of time to turn into...

Richard Cloutier: Oilers Call-up 2; Attempt to Call-Up a Third

Thanks to the 101 injuries the Oilers currently have, this morning they called up from the minors Magnus Paajarvi and Ryan O'Marra. They also placed forward Gilbert Brule on re-entry waivers, with the intention of calling him up tomorrow if he clears. My instant-analysis is as follows: Paajarvi - Rumor is, the Oilers will give him an opportunity to play on one...

Total Recall

The Edmonton Oilers have recalled Gilbert Brule, Magnus Paajarvi and Ryan O'Marra from Oklahoma City. We can imply a few things from this transaction, including the fact that Teemu Hartikainen and Josh Green didn't impress enough in their latest cup of coffee. We await news today on Jordan Eberle's injury, and there's a chance Brule won't get through waivers.

I-35 Update

The OKC Barons lost last night, but there is good news on the pro prospect front. Last night in the middle of the first period, two young Barons rang shots off the post. Magnus Paajarvi--in OKC to find his confidence and some swagger--hit iron and then Teemu Hartikainen--back after missing 10 games--did the same. "We had great chances, it's just one of those things that...

Magnum PS Headlines Baron Roster

The Oilers have a couple of days off, but the OKC Barons head into the break with a game in Charlotte this evening. Magnus Paajarvi will play in his 3rd AHL game. It's been tough to get a read on the OKC story this season. Injuries have had a major impact on the individual players, so the boxcars are tough to read. With the game tonight OKC will take a Christmas break, so I thought...

The Top AHL Team

Just like the NHL there is parity in the AHL.  It is has been hard to assess which team is the best in the league.  I think one team is showing it is the best of the bunch.  They are the Oklahoma City Barons (Edmonton Oiler affiliate).  They have a record of 19 wins and 7 losses (1 in a shootout) for 39 points.  They also have a +23 goal differential.  This gives them only...

Matthew Barry: Murray Coaches 1,000th Game and Kings Win 5-2

Having just come from watching Gilbert Brule play in Oklahoma, there’s no doubt the Kings got the better of the deal when they were “forced” to take Colin Fraser. In only his 2nd game with the Kings he took a pass from another former Oiler Ethan Moreau (is it Morrow or More-Oh? I wish the Kings announcers would get it right either way) and gave the Kings a much needed...

Follow me on Twitter Or be my friend on Facebook ------- Will Tuesday spell relief for the Oilers? By the afternoon we will know if a team has picked off an Oilers player from the waiver wire, and/or if the Oilers grabbed a player or two from waivers.

Richard Cloutier: Are the Leafs the Answer to the Oilers Defensive Issues?

As of 10am, Gilbert Brule and a few other Oilers were placed on the NHL Waiver wire. A number of teams will consider poaching someone from us, but I'm pretty sure all four will remain Oilers property and end up in Oklahoma City 24 hours from now. Specific to Brule, the market for forwards who get paid $1.8mil per season and can't make the 4th line on a team that finished...

Oilers Down to 23 Thanks to IR

The Edmonton Oilers have made their “final” cuts Sunday, and there was at least one surprise. Gilbert Brule is in the last year of his one way contract, but has a highly publicized bought of depression/illness that has kept him out of the Oilers’ lineup for much of last season, and kept the first round centreman from being traded to the Los Angeles Kings.
