HOCKEY: In the Box with Brent & Craig
Looking Back & Looking FOilward Where were we? Oh right! Hockey! Oilers and such! Instead of recapping games from the past two weeks, the boys at In The Box breakdown what’s happened the last little bit, and look towards an actual playoff push and run? Crazy. We know. Craig Douglas … And we’re back. After […]

Leafing Montreal The Oilers sit and sit and sit as the real world cancels three games against the Canadiens last week. Upon their return they pick up 3 points against the Leaves, who also somehow picked up 3 points. (Boy loser points are dumb) Let’s unpack this week in a locked down Oil country! Brent […]

Oil Spring The Oilers keep rolling this week with three straight wins after a one goal loss to the Flames on Monday. McDavid proved himself (yet again) as the best player on planet earth, and Mike Smith is getting some (dumb) consideration for the Vezina at 11-3. Are Craig & Brent going to let this […]

We’ll Always Have Ottawa Three straight wins (well actually, eight!) against the lowly Sens was good for exactly what ailed the Oil this week, then a loss on HNIC (shocking) against the godless Canucks to piss everyone off. Can Craig and Brent see a silver lining moving forward with ZERO more games against the Sens? […]

TorontOH-NO Ruh-Roh! The Oilers have fallen back to earth and lost three straight against the Toronto Leaves (boy that stings) where they scored one single solitary goal. Small bounce back against the Flames last night so are we panicking? Sure as shit we are. Are we used to this feeling? You bet your sweet bippy. […]

Hott Oill The Oilers have won – checks notes – five in a row, and 9 of their last 11 games and are – checks notes again – 1 point out of first place in the North. (At this point your narrator passes out handing it off to Craig and Brent to make sense of […]

Splitapeg You win some, you lose some, and sometimes you have terrible goaltending. Brent and Craig are here this week to breakdown the ups and downs of the two game series against the Jets and look forward (?) to a home at home with the godless Calgary Flames. Will there be fights in the stands? […]

Happy Palentines We’ve won 7 of 8 games? What the shit? Brent and Craig sit down and figure out if the Oilers are just that good – or the Sens just that band as they sweep 4 games against the Ottawa losers. Can the Oil keep this up, or is it all a mirage? Let’s […]

Eastern Promises Two beatdowns on the Ottawa Senators then a meltdown on national TV against the Flames. Craig and Brent break down the beatdowns, the meltdown and the come down of an atypical up and down week in Oil Country. Follow the bouncing ball! Craig Douglas During the first month of this strange season, some […]

Torontoh-no, oh-yes Two very entertaining games against the Maple Leafs brought a loss and a win, and holy shit – A GOAL. We’ll try not to get the column all sticky with our recount of Connor’s goal of the year, or best of this decade quite yet – but someone really needs to pass us […]

Jets go up & down Welp, that sucked. After the beautiful high of winning with less than a second left on Sunday, the Oilers let 4 unanswered goals in during a 3rd period collapse on Tuesday. Who’s to blame for this pile of shit? Is the season over? What the hell do we do now, […]
HOCKEY: In the Box with Brent & Craig
Leafs & Laffs First road trip of the season brings the Oil from one pandemic hotspot to another as they go back to back in the big smoke against the Leaves. Apparently Matthews decided to be a big baby and not play the second game, further cementing those dumb Toronthomer chants of Matthews being better […]
