Oilers dropping like flies...

Okay, so I’ve already moved to the new Low On Oil site, yet I keep coming back here…  I guess I’m just sentimental  that way, lol.  Well, the Oilers lost again tonight which now makes it six losses in the past seven games.  Overall, penalties cost us the game as the New York Rangers scored 3 powerplay goals.

Here’s some updates from my new blog:

  1. NHL Power Rankings - November by the Bloguin Poll
  2. Oilers vs. Rangers – November 5th, 2009.
  3. Edmonton Oilers Player Contribution Analysis – Jonathan Joyce.
  4. Shawn Hocoff’s out with shoulder injury – Time to rearrange the deck chairs?
  5. Edmonton Oilers 2009 season start – Hitting the ground running?

Low On Oil has moved to LowOnOil.com!

Hi everyone, my blog, Low On Oil, has moved to a new domain.  The new domain name as above is lowonoil.com.

Low On Oil, an Edmonton Oilers hockey blog, is proud to join the network of NHL hockey blogs on the Bloguin network. Derek Hanson, the Founder and President of Bloguin, had invited me, aka Hockey Noob (my former Oilers Message Board alias), to join the growing network of NHL hockey blogs which includes The PensBlog, Light the Lamp, and The Sixth Sens among several others fine hockey blogs.

Needless to say, I was excited about the opportunity to join Bloguin as they offered to move my blog to a new domain (Low On Oil), provide a custom redesign of the site itself, and their platform allows a tremendous amount of functionality which includes a forum.  Overall, I am very impressed with the new look and feel of this  website.  Further, I am pleased to join Bloguin’s community of sports and entertainment blogs. In short, it’s the same Low On Oil site as before with a great new look and some cool features.

As before, the Low on Oil blog aspires to continue to provide comprehensive information about the Edmonton Oilers.  As such, Low On Oil will continue to include game reports, player and roster analysis from a statistical perspective, Oilers news, and updates on Oilers trade rumors. I hope that you enjoy the new site. Goilers!

Cheers,

Dustin Penner is a stud!

When Oilers GM, Steve Tambellini, espoused the Oilers new mantra of “build from within,” I am quite certain that he had no idea that this would include building a first-line left wing sniper.  As for the title of my recent blog post, I used the ellipsis to illustrate a point.  Last year, for example, we can guess what other endings that sentence would likely have had if we referenced any one of the popular hockey forums.  In contrast, with Dustin Penner’s resurgence, this year hockey forums are extolling the virtues of our new found star.  Already, there’s rumblings at least of Dustin Penner getting consideration for Team Canada’s Olympic hockey team–which says a lot given that his name would have never came up last year.

The Edmonton Oilers (6-5-1) will be hosting the slumping Detroit Red Wings tonight (4-4-2) [Thursday October 29, 2009] at Rexall Place at 7:30 MT.  Despite their slow start to this season, the Detroit Red Wings are still able to instill feelings of consternation among opposing team fans with the Oilers being no exception.

Colorado Avalanche vs. Calgary Flames

Colorado vs. Calgary

The Colorado Avalanche (9-1-2) are playing tonight in Calgary (7-2-1) at the Pengrowth Saddledome (Wednesday October 28, 7:30 pm MT).  The Colorado Avalanche are playing their second game in as many days in Alberta.  As an Oilers fan, I thought that I would change things up and take in a game that I can dispassionately watch.  Are there any lessons to be learned from our foes in the North West?

Edmonton Oilers vs. Colorado Avalanche

Avalance at Oilers

The Edmonton Oilers (6-4-1) will be hosting the Colorado Avalanche (8-1-2), a team who’s experienced their own resurgence this season at Rexall Place at 7:30 pm MT.  Much of Colorado’s recent success has been driven by the excellent performances of their goalie, Craig Anderson.  Anderson himself currently has a .936 save percentage (6th in league, highest of any goalie who’s played more than 10 games) and a 2.14 goals against average.
