## Resource

Edmonton Oilers 2025-26 season was marked by disappointment, but several young players shone, providing hope for the future. Vasily Podkolzin led with 37 points, 19 goals, and 242 hits, showcasing leadership and protection for stars. Matt Savoie matched his point pace with 18 goals and 19 assists, excelling on penalty kills. Josh Samanski, after a strong AHL season, impressed in the NHL and at the Olympics. Evan Bouchard, the leagues top-scoring defenseman, posted impressive stats despite Norris snubs. Connor Ingram, the feel-good goalie story, posted the teams best stats after personal struggles, earning a Masterton nod. These breakthroughs offer hope as veterans age, with Podkolzin, Savoie, Samanski, Bouchard, and Ingram leading the way. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
