The Edmonton Oilers nearly doubled the New Jersey Devils in shots on Monday night, but the Blue & Orange couldn't solve goaltender Jake Allen on Monday night in a 3-0 shutout defeat at Rogers Place that drops their overall record to 6-6-1 this season.

The Edmonton Oilers aim to make it three consecutive victories on Monday night in the second of back-to-back games against the New Jersey Devils at Rogers Place. Leon Draisaitl looks to continue his hot play without Connor McDavid and Calvin Pickard will get the start in goal for the Oilers. Enjoy today's pre-game report!

Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists for the Edmonton Oilers in a 4-2 win over the host Calgary Flames on Sunday.

It's round two of the Battle of Alberta! Leon Draisaitl looks to continue his hot play in the absence of Connor McDavid as the Edmonton Oilers hope to get a win against their provincial rivals and get themselves above .500 for the first time this season!

Welome to today's "Day After" Episode where I discuss a variety of topics from last night's Oilers 5-1 victory over the Nashville Predators! Leon Draisaitl continued his dominance of the Preds with two goals and an assist, while centre Noah Philp contributed his first NHL assist and Zach Hyman scored his first goal of the season on Thursday in a feel-good 5-1 victory for the Edmonton Oilers at Bridgestone Arena.

Leon Draisaitl continued his dominance of the Nashville Predators with two goals and an assist, while centre Noah Philp contributed his first NHL assist and Zach Hyman scored his first goal of the season on Thursday in a feel-good 5-1 victory for the Edmonton Oilers at Bridgestone Arena.

Noah Philp is expected to make his NHL debut when the Oilers face the Predators at Bridgestone Arena on Thursday night without Connor McDavid in the lineup because of an ankle injury.

With McDavid set to miss the next two to three weeks with an ankle injury, the Oilers will begin trying to make up for their captain’s absence from the lineup on Thursday when they face the Predators at Bridgestone Arena for the second time this month.

The Oilers lost more than the result on Monday night at Nationwide Arena, falling 6-1 to the Blue Jackets to suffer their fourth straight defeat in Columbus while losing Connor McDavid to a lower-body injury early in the first period.

Mattias Ekholm broke up the shutout in the last minute on the power play, but the Blue Jackets scored six straight goals following the departure of the Oilers captain early in the opening frame, who left with a lower-body injury he sustained falling into the boards on a missed tripping penalty during the opening shift.

Connor McDavid was injured on his first shift of the game as the Edmonton Oilers get blown out by the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight by a score of 6-1. There are zero positives to take away from this game. Here is tonight's post-game fan reaction.
