Episode Details

Colton Dach is back with the Edmonton Oilers, fresh off a two-year, $2.4M deal, ready to embrace a new chapter under coach Mike Babcock — a dynamic he’s excited to fit into his gritty, workhorse style. Just 16 when Babcock last coached, Dach sees this as a perfect alignment: hard effort, smart play, and relentless drive. After a solid but injury-affected 2023-24 season, he’s focused on maximizing ice time, sharpening his offense, and proving himself as a complete two-way player. Drafted by Chicago but thrilled to play for his hometown Oilers, Dach is hungry to rise to the challenge — especially with the Cup-hungry team and stars like McDavid and Draisaitl around. He’s laser-focused on dominating the dirty areas, making plays, and earning his place as a key contributor in Babcock’s demanding system.
