Oiler talk on the ol' Al Gore. Leon Draisaitl’s scouting report had some downbeat verbal. The man worked hard after draft day to iron those issues out of …

Jan 24, 2025 · Read all of the posts by Lowetide on Lowetide.ca. Last night’s trade by the Carolina Hurricanes is a clear indicator that a rematch of the 2006 Stanley Cup Final is …

2 days ago · At noon today, the Lowdown hits on Sports 1440. We’ll chat with Rachel Doerrie, CTO of Betalytics and Host of Puck Social. Subjects include the Oilers-Leafs game Saturday (and the possibility of Stan Bowman adding a goaltender at the deadline), plus the massive trades Vancouver and Calgary executed on the weekend.

Jan 29, 2025 · Raphael Lavoie played his first game for the Vegas Golden Knights last night, spent it on a line with Brett Howden and Jonas Rondbjerg. The line went 16-4 Corsi events, 0-1 goals with an 80 percent expected goal share. Fates can be decided on such contrarian outcomes, with the real truth flying by the men…

Dec 11, 2024 · A reminder, in the last several days, you have told me (via dm or in the comments section) the worry is Evan Bouchard, Stuart Skinner, scoring wingers, speed, the RH second pairing spot, and fourth line RH center. In last night's comments section, losing Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway was once again discussed. Bottom line:…

Jan 20, 2025 · Time to get it straight. This (Bettman) NHL is less and less about skill with a stick and puck, or skating with speed and grace. No, rather it’s his version of a toned down WWF… because in Gary’s mind, pro-wrestling is a very popular “sport”, its assets make millions ignoring the “rule book”, its officials are punching bags, and the owner is a billionaire.

Nov 10, 2024 · The Edmonton Oilers finally found the formula last night in Vancouver, scoring at will and looking more like the team we've come to know since Connor McDavid and Cam Talbot arrived on the scene. Get a lead, flounder a little, pour it on some more, lose focus and collect two points. Lots of encouraging stories…

Jan 12, 2025 · Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is not scoring at five-on-five this season. He is one of my all-time favourite players, on any team, and his sublime pass to Connor McDavid earlier in the week is securely embedded in my brain forever. At five-on-five, points-60 by month: 0.83 in 11 October games; 1.03 in 13 November games; 1.12 in…

Oct 24, 2024 · This is me with Mrs. Lowetide at the 1988 CKCK Christmas party. Mrs. Lowetide passed away, CKCK shut it doors, surely the tree is no longer around and I'm thankful the moustache is a distant bell. I can look at these photos now without crying, at least not too much. I see two people who…

Dec 27, 2024 · I thought we could talk about the Oilers current depth chart, highlighting lines and pairings. Center five-on-five points-60 in December Connor McDavid 3.68 Leon Draisaitl 3.56 Adam Henrique 1.00 Derek Ryan 1.79 Center five-on-five goal share in December Connor McDavid 7-4 (64 pct) Leon Draisaitl 5-3 (63 pct) The Glimmer Twins 6-2 (75 pct) Adam…
