Jeff Petry Recalled, Alex Plante Sent Back

The Edmonton Oilers have recalled defenceman Jeff Petry and he will join the team ASAP. With the call up, that means that Alex Plante has been sent back down to the OKC Barons. No surprise there. Plante hasn`t been very good during his short stint with the Oilers. -WRITTEN BY SMOKIN` RAY-

I Don`t Give A Damn! Former Players? Who Cares

Since the Dustin Penner trade happened fans have been asking me about the trade and what happened and how much I cared. Honestly... when a player leaves, they are dead to me. If your not with the Oilers then I don`t care. Take Ryan Smyth for example. I love him as a player. One of my fav Oilers of all time. But if you asked me how he`s doing this year, I don`t know. Or care. He`s with the Kings. I only focus on the Oil and the players that are here now. I`m an Oiler guy through and through. No waivering. So when I`m asked about Penner and how`s he doing... I answer "Who gives a damn, but I hear that Taylor Hall kid is going to be special." :) GOILERS!!! -WRITTEN BY SMOKIN` RAY-

The Next 4 Oilers Games

Oh how I wish I could watch these next 4 games. The Oilers take on 4 teams who I like to watch but never get to see very often. The Oil are in Philly tonight (game time is 5pm MT). I love the way the Flyers play and no doubt will be hitting the Oilers hard. Should be a good game. Tomorrow the Oilers face the mighty Capitals. Always love to watch Ovechkin play. Very exciting player. I see some of #8 in Taylor Hall. Friday the Oil head to Detroit to take on the Wings. Tough game as always for the young Oilers but perhaps they can pull off a win. Game time is 5:30pm MT. The last game I`d like to watch is on Sunday at 1pm MT. The Oilers play the Penguins in what should be a hard fought afternoon game. Can the Oilers shut down the offence and win? I think so. So if your around a tv for the next week, make sure to watch these games, we don`t get to see these guys often. -WRITTEN BY SMOKIN` RAY-
