Stuart Skinner may be headed back to Canada next season. The former Edmonton Oilers goalie is set to be one of the best free agent goalies available this summer, and it appears he’s already drawing interest from a Canadian NHL team. While the Oilers are in need of a goaltender change, it doesn’t appear a return to the Alberta capital is very likely.

Kris Knoblauch’s reign as Edmonton Oilers head coach is expected to come to an end very soon. This news comes after reports leaked on Tuesday that the Oilers were trying to interview Bruce Cassidy to become the team’s next head coach. Knoblauch had not yet been fired when those reports came to light, but it seemed to cement his fate. You simply cannot bring back a head coach after trying to find his replacement so publicly.

The Edmonton Oilers have reported interest in Bruce Cassidy, but do they stand a chance at hiring him? There is no doubt that Cassidy is the top head coach available this offseason, and he will have no shortage of options for his next job. The Oilers are now expected to hire a new coach this summer, but so are the Toronto Maple Leafs and the LA Kings.

A big crowd will be heading to Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton next month. The Canadian Men’s National Team is set to play one of their final tune-up matches in the Alberta capital before the World Cup, and Edmonton soccer fans will be packing into the stadium to watch.

An important offseason is awaiting the Edmonton Oilers, and big changes could be on the way. Speculation on how much change is coming to the Oilers organization has been all over the place since getting eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs last month. Kris Knoblauch’s future as head coach is in question, as is Stan Bowman’s job as GM, and Darnell Nurse’s name has officially entered the trade rumour mill.

Canada’s men’s soccer team could be without its biggest star and captain at the FIFA World Cup. Alphonso Davies sustained a left hamstring injury while playing for Bayern Munich in Wednesday’s Champions League semi-final game against Paris Saint-Germain.

Those who designed FIFA’s World Cup host city jerseys may need to head back to the drawing board. On Thursday morning, FIFA released limited-edition World Cup host city sweaters. There have been four unveiled so far: New York/New Jersey, Kansas City, Seattle, and Boston. The rest of the host cities are expected to be released in the near future, though an exact date has not been specified.

Being considered small next to other athletes is nothing out of the norm for Montreal Canadiens defenceman Lane Hutson. Already regarded as one of the better defencemen in the entire NHL, Hutson wasn’t selected until 62nd overall in the 2022 draft due to his 5-foot-9, 162-pound frame.

Edmonton Oilers defenceman Evan Bouchard won’t be winning the Norris Trophy after all. In fact, not only will he not win the award, but he failed to finish as one of the top-three finalists.

The Edmonton Oilers could look like a much different group by the time the 2026-27 season arrives. The 2025-26 campaign was an ugly one for the Oilers, who finished with just 93 points and wound up being eliminated in the first round by the Anaheim Ducks.

Canadian soccer fans will have another chance to pick up tickets to FIFA World Cup matches in Vancouver and Toronto. With one month to go before the start of the FIFA World Cup, Canada Soccer has announced that it is hosting a last-minute ticket lottery this week. Tickets for all 13 matches being held in Canada (seven in Vancouver, six in Toronto) are included in the lottery.

There are few teams with more eyeballs on them than the Edmonton Oilers heading into the offseason. After reaching the Stanley Cup Final in both 2024 and 2025, the Oilers were a far lesser team throughout the 2025-26 season, and wound up being eliminated in the first round by the Anaheim Ducks.

The Edmonton Oilers are already in trouble just a year into Trent Frederic’s eight-year contract. It was a confusing contract from the get-go, with Oilers fans questioning why GM Stan Bowman would offer up eight years to a bottom-six player. Not only that, but it was also a 27-year-old bottom-six player who was coming off an injury-riddled season that saw Frederic put up some of the worst numbers of his career.

Edmonton Oilers made a major mistake with Frederic contract

It certainly sounds like Kris Knoblauch’s time with the Edmonton Oilers will be coming to an end shortly. The 47-year-old Oilers head coach has not been fired and is set to start a three-year contract next season, but it appears the writing is on the wall for Knoblauch. Despite leading Edmonton to two straight Stanley Cup Final appearances, the Oilers are reportedly already searching for his new replacement.

Stop me if you’ve heard this before: the Edmonton Oilers have a goaltending problem on their hands. Somehow, following the 11th season of Connor McDavid’s career, the Oilers have still failed to find a reliable goalie between the pipes.
