The New Jersey Devils face the Edmonton Oilers in an NHL game on Saturday, Oct. 18, 2025, at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.

The Edmonton Oilers began the 2025-26 season with a long list of injured players. From No. 1 line right winger Zach Hyman, through top-four defenceman Jake Walman, checking winger Mattias Janmark and most recently depth defenceman Alec Regula, the overall thrust of the lineup was altered greatly due to injury.

Edmonton's golden couple, Connor McDavid and Lauren Kyle, are a formidable team both on and off the ice. While McDavid leads the Oilers, Kyle, a designer and restaurateur, strengthens the team's community through stylish events and impactful charity work.

Now that the Edmonton Oilers have secured the services of captain Connor McDavid for an additional two seasons, all attention turns to the 2025-26 season.

Last year, I wrote about how some teams had started to let players choose individual goal songs, and I suggested songs that some Edmonton Oilers players may want to use if the team did let them.
