And with that, the 2024-25 NHL season has come to a close and for a second straight season, the Florida Panthers are Stanley Cup Champions. Jason and Frank kicked off today's episode of The DFO Rundown by talking about the Panthers once again winning hockey's ultimate prize.For GM Bill Zito, the celebration is short-lived as he now has to focus on trying to keep this group together despite a tight salary cap situation. Frank talked about just how many of the big free agents he thinks the Panthers could hang onto.They then talked about the Edmonton Oilers, who got to within two games of winning it all. Now, they face a lot of big offseason questions. The first is around Evander Kane and the NHL's investigation into their use of LTIR. Frank gave some insight into that. They also talked about the Trent Frederic extension.They then got into their Eastern Conference offseason preview, beginning with the Philadelphia Flyers. The list of needs for GM Danny Briere is long and they have plenty of assets and cap space to use if they want to. The Boston Bruins are going to be looking to bounce back and add some scoring punch to their roster but they are not the only team in that boat. The Rangers, Red Wings, and Sabres are all looking to take steps forward.Tyler then popped on for Buy or Sell, where he asked the guys about what playoff team is going to be the busiest this summer and how many players from this last Cup Final could he Hall of Famers one day.0:15 - Panthers repeat as Cup Champs4:00 - Evander Kane Investigation11:30 - Trent Frederic Extension17:30 - Philadelphia Flyers23:00 - Boston Bruins28:45 - Buffalo Sabres35:50 - Pittsburgh Penguins39:25 - New York Islanders42:55 - New York Rangers46:25 - Detroit Red Wings50:05 - Columbus Blue Jackets56:20 - Buy or SellWant to hear more from Frank, Jason and the entire DFO team?

We are back with another edition of The Nielson Show right here on Edmonton Sports Talk! To start off today's show, there was a little bit of story telling, laughs and some Oilers discussion. The first segment of today's show was Morning Announcements presented by 100.3 The Bear to recap everything in the world of sport from yesterday, and to preview tonight's Elks home opener. We finished off hour one with The Fan Zone presented by FansFirst to discuss Trent Frederic closing in on a 8-year contract extension with the Oilers and Evander Kane's LTIR situation being investigated.
Luke Gazdic was the first guest on today's show. He first, gave a shoutout to the Oilers fans and how unreal they were during this run. Touched on why the Oilers couldn't get the job done against the Panthers, shared his thoughts on Frederic getting a potential 8-year deal. We then spent some time conversating about Evander Kane and whether or not he'll be an Oiler next season and what's going on with the LTIR. We finished with his thoughts on Stuart Skinner and his future… It was time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day. In the middle of the second hour, we hit I Got Beef for Acme Meat Market! Lots of beef today, especially from our dear YouTube Trev. To finish off hour two, Reid Wilkins joined the show to discuss Oilers, dynasties, YouTube Trev and finished with the Edmonton Elks.

During Hour 3 we checked in with a new edition of In or Out discussing Oilers-Panthers, Evander Kane, Team Canada at the Olympics, and mascots. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Oilers dropped Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final after a flat start and near-flawless performance from the Panthers, whose depth continues to shine, as each of their top 9 forwards now have 15 or more playoff points. Florida's relentless structure and experience, led by Brad Marchand and Sam Bennett, overwhelmed Edmonton, who sorely missed injured Zach Hyman. Evander Kane and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins struggled, and Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl still haven’t found their top gear in this series. The Oilers’ defensive pairings look fatigued, and goaltending remains a question heading into an elimination Game 6. The pressure is squarely on Edmonton's stars to respond or face another long offseason without a championship.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Saturday afternoon means we forgot yesterday but today we have a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, The “b squad” discussed the Oilers game 4 comeback win, the starting goalie for game 5, the questionable officiating so far this series, Taylor Swift, and so much more.We kicked off the “Friday” episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about why Calvin Pickard is the right choice for game 5. Although Stuart Skinner has been fantastic in games 5-7 in the past, Pickard closed out the last game and proved he should start at least game 5.Looking back at Game 3 and 4, we discussed the officiating throughout the two games in Florida. Evander Kane has been racking up the penalty minutes and we asked the question, “Is Evander Kane a liability right now?”Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of Oilersnation Radio with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers. And Why Taylor Swift is actually a good luck charm for the Edmonton Oilers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Oilers clawed back from a 3-0 first-period deficit to win Game 4 in overtime, marking the first comeback of its kind in Stanley Cup Final history. A strong pushback, a timely goalie switch to Calvin Pickard and a spark from veteran Corey Perry’s locker room speech helped shift momentum. Blue-liner Darnell Nurse bounced back with a standout performance, Leon Draisaitl’s greasy OT winner capped the effort and despite continued discipline issues from Evander Kane (and others), Edmonton may hold a slight edge in the now best-of-three series. Meanwhile, the Rangers shake up their core, trading Chris Kreider to Anaheim in a bid to retool.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final unraveled early for the Oilers after a first-minute breakdown led to a Brad Marchand goal and spiralled into chaos, capped by a mercy pull for Stuart Skinner and a game full of penalties, missed assignments, and frustration. Evander Kane’s undisciplined play and a lack of composure across the roster derailed any chance at establishing a rhythm and the Panthers pounced on a discombobulated Edmonton team. Tensions boiled over late with line brawls and antics between benches—including Jake Walman’s water squirting and TNT's Brian Boucher catching stray splash damage. Florida, meanwhile, continues to show depth and composure, buoyed by standout performances from Sam Reinhart, Brad Marchand, and Sam Bennett, even as stars like Barkov and Tkachuk remain quiet offensively.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Edmonton Oilers fell hard in game 3, losing 6-1 to the Florida Panthers. The Panthers now lead the series 2-1 with game 4 set for Thursday! In a penalty filled game, the Oilers were never in it as they fell 2-0 in the first period, with Florida never looking back and adding four more goals in the final 40 minutes. Stuart Skinner was pulled late in the game, John Klingberg finished at a minus 3 and Leon Draisaitl did not get a shot on net. Hear postgame comments from Stuart Skinner and Evander Kane.

JR and Tim welcome Evander Kane to SNIPES & STRIPES. They discuss the upcoming Stanley Cup Final series against Florida. Evander talks about the team's experience from last year's final, their preparation, and the importance of getting off to a good start in the series. They also discuss the team's depth, including Jeff Skinner and Viktor Arvidsson, and how they can match up with Florida's physical play.
The Edmonton Oilers are heading back to the Stanley Cup Final! For the second straight season, they've eliminated the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference Final—this time doing it in just five games. Game 5 was electric from the opening puck drop, with the Oilers exploding for two goals on their first two shots. The blitz forced Dallas head coach Pete DeBoer to burn his timeout and pull Jake Oettinger just minutes into the game. But the damage was already done.Connor McDavid led the way with another dominant performance, the powerplay continued to deliver, and despite a push from Dallas in the third to make it 4-3, it was Evander Kane who silenced the Stars with a massive insurance goal to seal it. Edmonton walks away with a 6-3 win and a trip back to the Stanley Cup Final—this time looking for redemption.We'll break down everything from last night with our scoring summary, One Big Take, Giant Question, and dive into some early storylines ahead of the Cup Final rematch between the Oilers and Panthers. We're also thrilled to welcome Jeff Marek, host of The Sheet, to help us break down the entire Western Conference Final series and preview what's shaping up to be an electric rematch in the Stanley Cup Final. Jeff will give us his thoughts on how the Oilers managed to take down the Stars in just five games, what's impressed him most about Edmonton's evolution this postseason, and what the Oilers will need to do differently against a relentless Florida Panthers squad looking for back-to-back championships.Plus, we're joined by former NHL defenseman Jason Demers to get his thoughts on Game 5, the Oilers' playoff run so far, and what they'll need to do to flip the script against Florida in the Final.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!!
The Florida Panthers are headed to their third straight Stanley Cup Final after rallying past Carolina in Game 5, continuing the state of Florida's Eastern Conference dominance. Carter Verhaeghe scored the winner, showcasing the value of patience and great scouting. An awkward handshake moment between coaches Paul Maurice and Rod Brind’Amour sparked debate about who belongs in the post-series tradition. In the West, the Oilers prepare for Game 5 against Dallas with Mattias Ekholm expected to return from injury but Zach Hyman is likely out for the remainder of the playoffs. Evander Kane and Corey Perry could see increased icetime to try and offset the loss of Hyman as they have both impressed so far in these playoffs. 'Tis the season for Conn Smythe chatter, a year with no clear favourite emerging, but McDavid, Bouchard, Barkov, and Tkachuk are all in the mix. Could a goalie surprise?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Edmonton Oilers are staring down a massive opportunity tonight in Las Vegas. After dropping the Game 3 of this second-round series, the Oilers delivered one of their best performances of the season, and now have a 3-1 series lead heading into Game 5 at T-Mobile Arena. They're one win away from advancing to the Western Conference Final—and if their performance in Game 4 is any indication, they're trending in the right direction.Stuart Skinner silenced critics and delivered his best performance of the postseason in Game 4, stopping all 23 shots he faced to secure his second career playoff shutout. The Oilers' depth continues to shine, with Adam Henrique scoring twice and Evander Kane chipping in with another gritty goal. It was a statement night from Edmonton, and now they have a chance to finish off the Golden Knights in their own building. But Vegas won't go quietly—expect a desperate, physical response from a team fighting to keep its season alive.On today's episode of Oilersnation Everyday, we'll preview every angle of Game 5. We'll have our full lineup report, break down key game notes, deliver our Sherwood Ford Giant Question, give you our One Big Take, and check in with the Bet365 Gameday Betting Challenge.

And what kind of storm will they need to weather from Vegas early on?Later in the show, we'll be joined by Oilersnation writer Bruce Curlock to dig deeper into what's gone right for the Oilers in this series, how Stuart Skinner has responded under pressure, and whether or not he believes Edmonton will close out the series tonight—or if this thing is heading back to Rogers Place for a Game 6.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!!
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.

The Edmonton Oilers have taken a 3-1 series lead over the Vegas Golden Knights after a dominant 3-0 win in Game 4 at Rogers Place.

The Oilers leaned on their depth once again, with Adam Henrique scoring twice in the first period and Evander Kane adding the third.

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.

All that and wherever else the conversation takes the boy's right here on The Oil Stream! The Oil Stream is presented by Boston Pizza!

Injuries, rest and returns are a league-wide overarching theme as the regular season winds down. Connor McDavid made a surprise return in the Oilers' win over St. Louis, notching three assists including a key play on the game-winner. Edmonton isn’t the same without McDavid and Draisaitl, and getting healthy ahead of the playoffs is crucial. The Leafs dropped a rough one to the Panthers Tuesday, then bounced back against Tampa Bay behind a Matthew Knies hat trick on Wednesday, leading to much discussion about which Florida team the Leafs matchup better against. In Minnesota, a wild 8–7 OT win over the Sharks featured big returns from Kaprizov and Eriksson Ek, and what was probably Marc-Andre Fleury’s final home start. Vegas is also eyeing full health with Pietrangelo and Hague recovering, but Hertl and Eichel’s absences are causing concern up front. Jason Strudwick joins to talk about getting up to game speed for players like Evander Kane and Gabe Landeskog, his concerns about the Oilers' goaltending and how Quinton Byfield could be a difference-maker in this year's playoffs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
