With the holiday season approaching and various charities deep into fundraising campaigns, what are your plans when it comes to donations? I'll give the same amount as last year.

As bad as things are for the Edmonton Oilers after a 3-1 loss to Los Angeles Wednesday, their circumstances could still get worse before they get better.

The Oilers don't have a time frame yet on Ales Hemsky's injury, but the fact they called a couple of guys up from Springfield tells you he won't be available for Edmonton's back-to-back games with San Jose and Vancouver, at least.

Wow: what a string of injuries. In addition to the already long string of injuries on the Oilers roster, today there was news that both Fernando Pisani and Patrick O'Sullivan have sustained injuries.
