The Edmonton Oilers’ red-hot play that saw them win seven of eight games heading into the All-Star Break appears to be a thing of the past. Since that time off, they have lost three of five, despite an easy schedule featuring the Detroit Red Wings (who they played twice), Philadelphia Flyers, Ottawa Senators and the
On the heels of notching his fifth goal of the season, the Red Wings announced a two-year extension for defenseman Olli Maatta: The extension is worth $6 million, with an AAV for $3 million. Maatta, who turns 29 this summer, was part of Steve Yzerman’s free-agent signing frenzy over the offseason. The former first-round pick
