It's Tuesday afternoon, and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today's episode, the guys discussed the Oilers' inability to play complete games, the lack of offence, the wear and tear from the consistent losses, and much more.We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Nick Kypreos' first trade board of the season, which included the Oilers looking at Jordan Binnington as a trade target. Given that everyone knows Edmonton is looking for a goalie, it makes sense that people are trying to figure out the puzzle, but the question everyone on the podcast had was whether he's even better than Stu right now. Changing gears, we looked at the Oilers' win over the Florida Panthers on Saturday and how our boys played with plenty of passion despite being in the final game of their two-week road trip. Starting with AJ Greer, who started scrums but was unwilling to do anything about it, it was hard not to make fun of the guy for writing cheques he wouldn't physically cash. Even so, beating the Panthers they way they did was very encouraging, the boys on the podcast hope it can be the turning point. Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of Baggedmilk's Trivia, including some Oilers vs. Utah-specific questions ahead of tonight's game. If you listened to the last three editions of BM's trivia, you'll know that BM was way off on one of the questions, which prompted Liam to take on the role of trivia marshal and auditor. Did Baggedmilk get his questions right? You'll have to listen to find out for sure.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!Powered by @bet365. Whatever the moment, it's Never Ordinary at bet365.
