Edmonton Oilers' Coach Hunt: Cassidy Drama & Lost Assets
Edmonton Oilers coach drama continues as they cant even chat with Bruce Cassidy, fired by Vegas Golden Knights, due to permission issues.

Oilers' Dickinson: Shutdown Defense, Offense Not His Game
Edmonton Oilers General Manager Stan Bowman made a strategic move at the 2026 trade deadline, acquiring defensive center Jason Dickinson from the Chicago Blackhawks. This move was crucial as the Oilers were struggling defensively, allowing an average of 4.5 goals per game over 11 consecutive matches. Dickinsons arrival not only freed up star player Connor McDavid from defensive responsibilities but also bolstered the teams penalty kill and defensive zone play. Despite a broken foot that affected his playoff performance, Dickinsons impact on the teams defensive strategy has made him a priority for re-signing as an unrestricted free agent.
