The Oilers brought last season’s captain back.
The Tulsa Oilers, ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Anaheim Ducks and the AHL’s San Diego Gulls, announced Monday that they signed Tyrell Goulbourne for 2026-27. The club release, carried by the Tulsa World, says the 32-year-old finished his first Oilers season with 23 points (9 goals, 13 assists) in 48 games because of injury, and a plus-8.
Head coach Rob Murray, in that release: “Goulbourne is a veteran guy who had a tough, injury-plagued season last year, and we feel he will be in great form to start this season.”
The release also lists him with other announced 2026-27 signings: Mike McKee (D), Nik Armstrong-Kingcade (F), Caleb Huffman (D), Max Itagaki (F), Ian Amsbaugh (F), Connor Fedorek (D), Ethan Benz (F), Zachary Murray (F), Jay Dickman (F), and Tyler Poulsen (F).
The same note sets the regular-season opener: the Oilers host the Allen Americans on October 17 at the BOK Center, with puck drop at 7:05 p.m. CT.
