Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne are joined by former NHLer Rob Brown (6:45) to chat about his former team Edmonton Oilers advancing to their second straight conference final, how both Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard played a role in their playoff run so far, why the team has excelled behind Kris Knoblauch's adjustments during a series, and how the Oilers could match-up against the Dallas Stars or Winnipeg Jets. Then, former goaltender and Stars analyst Daryl Reaugh (28:45) stops by to discuss what has fueled Dallas' success so far against the Jets, Thomas Harley's evolution, and Miro Heiskanen's presence since returning to the team.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Tuesday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been recorded and edited and is set to massage your ear feelings. On the Tuesday edition of the podcast, the guys discussed the Edmonton Oilers' stranglehold on the Golden Knights, Stuart Skinner's shutout, Kris Knoblauch's line combination changes, and more.The guys kicked off the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about the Oilers' goaltending, and whether we would go back to Calvin Pickard when he gets healthy again or if Stuart Skinner's shutout is enough to give No. 74 another chance at a run. While there's no doubt that Calvin Pickard was fantastic in the six games he played, you can't discount how solid Skinner was in Game 4. But the question is whether one game was enough to turn the crease back over to Stuart Skinner.Looking back at Game 4, we started the recap with a conversation about Evander Kane. The player has been exceptional since returning from injury, and being able to raise his level despite being out for 10 months is causing havoc for the Golden Knights. We also discussed Kris Knoblauch's lineup changes landing perfectly, as both Kasperi Kapanen and Troy Stecher made immediate impacts. Having both of those guys play as well as they did led to another secondary debate about whether they've done enough to stick in the lineup for Game 5. Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, keys to close out the series, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can get the job done at T-Mobile in Game 5. As you'll hear, the boys feel bullish about the Oilers' chances of getting the job done, but that'll only happen if they can bring the same effort that saw them close out their first-round matchup against Los Angeles. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In a crazy 2nd round, the Leafs open up a 2 game lead on the Panthers and then give it back when they go to Florda. The Oilers are up 2-1 but an injury to Calvin Pickard has forced them to rely on Stuart Skinner who is struggling. Connor Hellebuyck has been up and down like a toilet seat. Which Hellebuyck will they get in game 4? The Canes look set to go up 3-1 over the Caps.  Listen Here:  Apple Podcasts   Direct MP3   iHeart Radio

 Hour 2 of the Big Show with George Rusic & Matt Rose is on Demand! To kick off the hour the guys are joined by Brent Krahn!

Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Edmonton's win over Los Angeles, what to expect from the Vegas Golden Knights, and much more.The guys kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a random discussion about mascots before finally getting to our delicious debate for the week, which revolved around Nic Roy's cross-check to Trent Frederic's face. On Friday morning, the NHL DoPS announced that Roy would face a hearing later today. That prompted the boys to wonder whether he would be suspended for one game or if getting kicked out in overtime was enough of a punishment. Changing gears, we examined what the Oilers need to do in Game 3 to ensure they maintain the momentum. While Edmonton managed to win Game 2, one can argue that the team was fortunate to pull out the victory, given the numerous mistakes made and the Golden Knights' strong performance. If they're going to kick off their games at home with another win, Edmonton will need to do a much better job on the small details of their game. Put another way, it would be really lovely if Calvin Pickard didn't have to bail the boys out as often as he has been. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week. It's incredible how much things can change in two weeks, isn't it? Especially when you remember that the Oilers were down 2-0 in the series at this same point only a week ago. Life comes at you fast, doesn't it? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and ready to help you through the rest of your work week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed Tuesday's Game 1 win, Calvin Pickard taking over the net, what to expect in Game 2, and much more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life by discussing the Oilers' making it through Game 1 with one of their more complete postseason games so far. Given that everyone expected Vegas to blow them out, especially after dropping two goals early, watching the boys come roaring back over the final 50 minutes was every shade of fun. The question on everyone's mind after a win like that is whether the Oilers can keep the train rolling in Game 2. Taking a hard pivot from the Oilers talk, the boys discussed the new pope getting announced earlier Thursday afternoon. Given that he will be known as Pope Leo, is that a good omen for our beloved Leon Draisaitl? The betting boys on the podcast certainly think so. Sticking with the papal talk, Wanye then told a story from when he was living in Mexico and had the airport shut down when the former pope landed in Mexico City. Changing gears once again, Jay recapped his trip to Toronto with a story about how the city didn't seem that into the playoffs even though the Leafs were in Round 2. Jay spoke about how quiet bars and pubs were while he was there and how it was also a challenge to find anyone who would play the Oilers game. Somehow, taking shots at the city of Toronto led to a discussion about the Utah Mammoth logo reveal, and everyone also learned how much it bothers Tyler that the name wasn't pluralized.

Tuesday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been recorded and edited and is set to massage your ear feelings. On the Tuesday edition of the podcast, the guys discussed the Edmonton Oilers' series comeback, what to expect from Game 1 vs. Vegas, Calvin Pickard getting the start, and much more.The boys started the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Calvin Pickard starting Game 1 for the Oilers instead of going back to Stuart Skinner. Given that Calvin Pickard won the Oilers' last four games, it would make sense to give our pal Cal the net for Round 2, but that doesn't necessarily mean we won't see Skinner at any point in the series. While everyone agreed with Pickard getting the nod to start, everyone also saw a path where the team would go back to Skinner later in the series.Looking ahead at the Oilers vs. Golden Knights, the guys walked through their series predictions for Round 2 and how the boys are all bullish on Edmonton's chances to get through Vegas. But if they're going to beat Vegas in this second round, a big step toward that goal has to be finding a way to win this first game. Unfortunately, the bad news about Game 1 is that the Oilers are only 3-10 in series openers in the Connor McDavid era, which led to a discussion about what they need to do to avoid going down 0-1 again.Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, keys to victory in Game 1, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can exact revenge over Vegas. As you'll hear, the boys feel bullish about the Oilers' chances to get the job done, but that will only happen if they can bring the same effort that saw them close out their first-round matchup over Los Angeles.

From playoff Mattis Janmark coming through in the clutch to Evan Bouchard's redemption, to Calvin Pickard locking things down, there are plenty of reasons to be bullish about the team's chances.Looking around the rest of the NHL, the guys discussed the rest of the series and how the storylines from the first round continue to make this the best round of the playoffs. They then discussed what's happening around the city, and now that cell phones are in everybody's hand, the ability to experience a playoff run becomes so much easier.

It's the Wednesday after Game 5, which means a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never is ready to recap the Edmonton Oilers' miraculous comeback while also looking back at the week that was. On today's podcast, I recapped games 3-5, looked ahead at Game 6, what the Oilers need to do to close out the series, and much more.Isn't it amazing how many things can change in a week? When I recorded last Wednesday's episode, the Oilers had just spectacularly lost Game 1 and were about to drop Game 2 even worse somehow. The good news is that sports are the best reality show on earth, and watching our boys come roaring back with three straight wins is almost as good as it gets. I also touched on how great the other first round series have been, and how working through a playoff run can be tough on the body.Turning my full attention back to the Oilers, I started with a recap of games 3-5 and how the Oilers have gotten better with each passing period. That's not to say that they were perfect by any stretch, but Edmonton's ability to crank up their resiliency when it mattered most was an unstoppable force for Los Angeles. There's also the Calvin Pickard effect, as the team clearly enjoys playing in front of a guy who seems like the nicest man on earth. Then there's Evan Bouchard's four goals, Evander Kane's impact, and Leon Draisaitl tying Messier and Gretzky for one of the wildest playoff records ever.Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a guest Righteous Sack Beating before wrapping up the podcast with a quality round of voicemails. The voicemail was alive this week, and the messages were very funny, as you could almost feel the rollercoaster of emotions that were going on. As always, finishing up the show with your opinions is my favourite part of the whole thing and something I always look forward to most.

The Edmonton Oilers take a 3-2 series lead after picking up a 3-1 win in Los Angeles on Tuesday night. The Oil played their best game in months, outshooting L.A. 46-22 with Mattias Janmark scoring the winner in the third period and nuge adding the empty netter for the victory. Evander Kane continues to impress as he was force for Edmonton on the night and Calvin Pickard was steady between the pipes.  Hear postgame comments from Mattias Janmark, Evander Kane, Calvin Pickard and Zach Hyman.

What a weekend in Oil Country! On today's Oilersnation Everyday, Tyler Yaremchuk and Liam Horrobin recap a wild few days that saw the Edmonton Oilers completely change the momentum of their first-round series against the LA Kings. After starting the weekend down 2-0, the Oilers now head into Monday with the series tied 2-2.It all started Friday night when the Oilers dominated the Kings with a 7-4 victory at Rogers Place. Calvin Pickard made his first career playoff start and was huge in the third period to lock down the win and breathe life into the series.Then came Sunday night — a game that will be talked about for a long time in Edmonton. The Oilers mounted a stunning third-period comeback, erasing a two-goal deficit to force overtime. Other teams in this year's playoffs were 25-0 when leading by multiple goals, but not against this Oilers squad. Evan Bouchard was once again the hero with two massive goals to tie it up, before Leon Draisaitl capped off an incredible night with a powerplay overtime winner from his office.We'll break down everything that happened this weekend with our scoring summaries, deliver our One Big Take, and ask the Sherwood Ford Giant Question. Plus, we'll dive into what this comeback means for the Oilers moving forward, and how the LA Kings' psyche might be shaken heading back home for Game 5.Finally, we'll be joined by Oilers colour commentator Louie DeBrusk to get his thoughts on the Oilers' huge momentum swing, the performance of Calvin Pickard, and how confident he is that Edmonton can close out this series for the fourth straight year.You don't want to miss today's show!Website: https://oilersnation.com/ https://twitter.com/OilersNation/ https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/ https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/https://www.instagram.com/oilersnationdotcomhttps://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!

Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne are joined by former NHL President, GM and Head Coach Doug MacLean (5:00) to chat about the Edmonton Oilers' bold decision to start Calvin Pickard in Game 3, what this series could mean for Connor McDavid's future, why the Ottawa Senators still aren't built for postseason success, Mitch Marner's motivation in Toronto, Brandon Hagel's controversial hit on Aleksander Barkov, and what Barkov's potential absence could mean for the Panthers' Stanley Cup hopes. Then, Nick, Justin and Sam McKee continue discussing Hagel's potential suspension and how the Oilers are hurting the prime years of McDavid.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been recorded, edited, and is set to massage your ear feelings. On this week's podcast, the guys discussed what needs to happen in Game 3 defensively, Wednesday's loss to the L.A. Kings, and much more.The boys started the Friday podcast with a delicious debate about the Oilers' defensive game and what specifically needs to improve for the team to avoid the chaos that's been happening in their zone through two games. Whether it's better decisions with the puck, supporting each other as passing options, or throwing the puck up the middle of the ice, there are countless ways Edmonton can improve in their zone that should lead to better results. The guys continued the conversation about Game 3 with a look at Calvin Pickard getting the start in favour of Stuart Skinner, and gave takes on whether this was the right decision by Knoblauch. Given that Skinner has allowed 11 goals on 58 shots through the first two games, it wasn't exactly surprising to see the goalie swap for Friday night, but the move is also not without risks. The other angle is that Calvin Pickard played well down the stretch and probably earned an opportunity to get back in the crease. From there, the discussion turned to the opposite end of the ice and what the Oilers need to do to generate more offence than we're seeing. Starting with getting more pucks on net, the Oilers really need to simplify their game and start doing more to make life uncomfortable for Darcy Kuemper. We also discussed the need for more bodies to the crease to fish for secondary chances and greasy playoff-like goals. Much like on the defensive side of the puck, there is a lot of room to improve. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week. Even though the team is down 0-2 in the first round, the ONR squad felt positive despite the circumstances. The question remains whether or not the Oilers feel just as bullish on what they're capable of doing on Friday back at Rogers Place. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Former NHLer, Carter Hutton joins Game Play to chat about Anthony Stolarz's infectious energy, if Calvin Pickard can provide a 'spark' for the Oilers and Connor Helleybuyck's playoff struggles.

The Big Show with Rusic and Rose is On Demand! On hour 1, George and Matt Kick off the show discussing game 2 between the Oilers and the Kings.
