As the Toronto Maple Leafs get ready to face the Edmonton Oilers, this matchup brings two skilled but inconsistent teams looking to build real momentum.
The Edmonton Oilers, led by Connor McDavid, have acquired Sidney Crosby’s Pittsburgh Penguins goalie in a high-profile shakeup, signaling a major shift in NHL goaltending dynamics this season.
Familiarity is back in the Edmonton Oilers lineup in the past few days. Captain Connor McDavid has had help from the usual pairing of Zach Hyman and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, manning the wings on the first line and the results are definitely showing.
McDavid’s wife, Lauren, revealed more about the ketchup phobia recently on an episode of the "Never Offside" podcast hosted by Julie Petry at Cat Toffoli, the wives of NHLers Jeff Petry and Tyler Toffoli. McDavid and Lauren Kyle were married in the summer of 2024, after being together for more than a decade.
Shortly after Connor McDavid called out the Edmonton Oilers for their struggles in the 2025-26 NHL season, another star on the team issued a sincere comment.
