It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers losing three of four games they should have won, goaltending rumours that are popping up, playing soft, line combos, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate over whether everyone would rather have a driver seven days a week or a personal chef three times a week. For the second delicious debate, Dan wanted to know what everyone thought about the new PWHL logos for the Seattle Torrent and Vancouver Goldeneyes. Shifting gears to the Edmonton Oilers, the guys started the discussion with a look at the Oilers' dreadful run of giving up multi-goal leads when it seemed they had wins in the bank. According to Jason Gregor, the Oilers lead the league in blowing multi-goal leads while also being unable to score in the shootout. To put it lightly, Edmonton is not playing up to its own standards, and it's incredibly frustrating to watch it piss away points that should have been tucked away. 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. With the 2025-26 season well underway, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode discussing a range of topics, some related to the Oilers and others not, but that's what happens when the team is playing as poorly as they are right now.

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 close games, Connor McDavid's 1100th NHL point, Evan Bouchard's struggles, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate over what has caused the Oilers' inconsistencies through the first 14 games of the year. Whether it's a lack of killer instinct, the inability to put in a full 60 minutes, or a lack of physicality, it's incredibly frustrating that a team this talented struggles to live up to the level everyone expects of them. Regardless of what frustrates you, there are plenty of issues happening with the Oilers right now that are completely fixable. Changing gears, we kept the breakdown going of Tuesday's loss against the St. Louis Blues. Starting with the defence making life more difficult than it needs to be with their lack of physicality in front of the net. Are the Oilers' defenders too soft when players are in their goalie's face? Changing gears, we looked at Jack Roslovic starting to settle into his role in the top-six, which prompted a conversation about whether the Oilers should look at an extension. 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 two weeks, 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.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers losing three of four, some recent milestones on the roster, David Tomasek's first NHL goal, line combos, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Evan Bouchard's rough night against New York, and whether anyone is worried about what was a miserable evening for No. 2. While there's no doubt that Bouchard didn't play well against the Rangers, being too concerned about him this early in the year probably doesn't make sense either. That said, he definitely needs to play better given the minutes he commands, and it will be interesting to see if he faces any supplementary discipline like Darnell Nurse did a couple nights before. Continuing with the breakdown of the last few games for Edmonton, the Oilers blew a two-goal lead against the Rangers on Thursday, which was incredibly disappointing and frustrating given how they had dominated the game early. In the span of just under four minutes, the Oilers went from being up by two goals to being in a tie game. Even with a late power play opportunity, the boys couldn't get the job done. To make matters worse, the comeback didn't happen because the Rangers were shooting the lights out, the loss happened because the Oilers cannot stop making 10-bell mistakes.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 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' back-to-back losses, Connor McDavid's scoring woes, goaltending, and much more. We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate over whether the Oilers have an identity problem. Given how sloppy they've been through the first 10 games, it's fair to wonder why this team cannot figure out how to start a season off on the right foot. Regardless of where you sit with the question, no one on the podcast is particularly concerned, even though the results haven't gone our way. Frustrating? Yes. Worrying? Not yet. Changing gears, we looked back at the two losses from this past weekend and how the same damned mistakes keep preventing any forward progress. The guys also discussed Connor McDavid's only goal this season and dissected his shot totals from previous years, when he was much more active. While no one on the show thinks this trend will continue, the message from everyone's standpoint was that the captain needs to shoot more. He's too good not to be. 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.

On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers two recent wins, some recent milestones on the roster, David Tomasek's first NHL goal, line combos, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether the boys felt the Oilers had the refs on their side as they did last night against Montreal. While there was some debate about the penalties called, no one on the podcast felt the Oilers had an unfair advantage because the Habs couldn't kill penalties. The main point is that Edmonton took advantage of its opportunities, whereas the Canadiens could not.Continuing with the breakdown of these last two wins, we looked at the issues that are preventing the Oilers from running the show, and most of them are self-inflicted. The good news is that the team is still finding ways to win even with these glaring issues standing in their way. That said, being as sloppy as the Oilers have been isn't exactly the smartest strategy unless the goal is to live in the land of mediocrity.

It's Tuesday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' losing streak, Tuesday's game against the Senators, line combos, and much more.After a few left-hand turns on topics, the boys kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about what to expect from Jake Walman's return to the lineup after missing training camp and the pre-season with a mysterious upper-body injury. Despite not playing yet this season, there's little doubt that Walman is one of the Oilers' best puck-moving defencemen, and having him back in the lineup will surely help.Changing gears, the guys dissected the Oilers' current three-game losing streak and how the lack of production from the big boys is undoubtedly contributing to the results. While the slumps won't last forever, it's hard not to be frustrated about the ways things are going offensively, and how the Oilers haven't yet made the adjustments needed to kick this snake bite. The good news is that there are adjustments to be made that can hopefully make a positive impact. Can they turn things around? Yes. Will it take work and adjustments? Absolutely. Finally, we wrapped up the first episode of the week with another (flawed) round of Baggedmilk's Trivia that had the boys looking ahead at at Tuesday's matchup between the Oilers and Senators. Despite one of the questions being factually incorrect, it was a good time to hear the fellas work through their logic in what was a haphazardly put together bit by Baggedmilk. As it turns out, it's not just the Oilers that are struggling to produce offence right now.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' season opener, Thursday's matchup against the Islanders, line combos, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the start of the Oilers' road trip through the first two games in New York. While the Oilers did beat the Rangers, it wasn't exactly their best performance. When it came to the Islanders, the boys made so many mistakes that it would have almost been a miracle had they been able to pull off the win. The good news is that many of the errors that led to that loss are fixable, and the boys all expect the team to be better going forward.Continuing with the breakdown of Thursday's loss, the boys wanted to give Stuart Skinner some love for his work last night even though the stats would suggest he wasn't as good as he was. Had it not been for Skinner, that loss to the Islanders would have been way worse than it ended up. From there, we offered our first impressions on Jack Roslovic. Even though he's only played two games with Edmonton so far, it's tough to get an accurate read on the player when he's trying to get up to speed after missing training camp and the pre-season.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 Tuesday afternoon and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the NHL regular season is just around the corner because we're back to two podcasts per week. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' first road trip of the year, Baggedmilk's trivia, season predictions, and much more.Oilers heading out for first road trip of the NHL seasonWe kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about what the Oilers need to do on their first road trip of the season to call it a successful run through the East. Given that the Oilers are supposed to be one of the best teams in the NHL, the guys all had very different ideas of what the Oilers need to do to be considered a success. The tricky part of predicting results on an early road trip like this is that teams are still so sloppy early in the year, creating opportunities for unexpected results. Changing gears, the guys looked back at the Oilers' 3-1 win over the Vancouver Canucks, and how that game was far more lopsided than the score probably suggested. As much as it was frustrating in the moment, it was hard not to be impressed by how well Thatcher Demko played and how he was the only reason this wasn't a blowout. The guys also discussed the $2500 fine issued against Tyler Myers for sticking Connor McDavid in the pills, and how a value like that is meaningless for a player who's made $90 million in his career. We also discussed the new line combinations that are set for Tuesday's matchup vs. the Rangers. Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of season predictions for the 2025-26 NHL season, including some additional goal totals, head-to-heads, and anything else we could think about to build out what we started last week. From team goal predictions to Pacific Division standings to how many starts Stuart Skinner will make this season, the end of the first Tuesday episode of ONR was as fun as it was all over the map.

It's Saturday Morning, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' season opener, Friday's matchup against the Canucks, line combos, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about why the NHL doesn't have any games scheduled on the first Friday of the schedule. While this delicious debate was mostly to annoy Liam, it did give him the opportunity to rant about his hatred of the schedule. As for the real delicious debate, Tyler wanted to know what everyone's take was on Stuart Skinner's season opener after the Oilers' goaltender finds himself back in the crosshairs after a tough finish against the Flames.Changing gears, the guys discussed everything that's happened over the last few days, starting with Mattias Ekholm's three-year contract extension. Despite everyone being excited that Big Viking Daddy is sticking around, they did have a healthy conversation about whether the term for someone his age is too long or not. They also discussed the other extensions that have happened around the league this week, and whether Bill Guerin looks at some of those deals and regrets the big ticket for Kirill Kaprizov.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.

With the start of the 2025-26 season under way, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode discussing a range of topics, some related to the Oilers and others not, but that's what happens at this stage of the new year.

It's Tuesday afternoon and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the NHL regular season is just around the corner because we're back to two podcasts per week. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Connor McDavid's extension, Jake Walman's seven-year deal, season predictions, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether or not popping the champagne for Connor McDavid's contract extension on Oilersnation Everyday was an acceptable reaction or not. For Rick, popping champagne was a little bit too much, even though a celebration for the event was absolutely merited. As for the real delicious debate, the boys discussed whether the Oilers got enough from the McDavid extension by only adding two more years to his deal. Changing gears, the guys walked through the big news announcements from yesterday, including the Connor McDavid extension, Jake Walman extension, and the Ryder and Lisa announcement. Needless to say, it was a very busy Monday around Nation HQ and a day no one will ever forget. Needless to say, the boys had plenty to say about the McDavid and Walman extensions, including a look at why the latter was worth such a massive extension in the first place. Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with our season predictions ahead of the 2025-26 NHL season, including some goal totals, head-to-heads, and anything else we could think about ahead of Wednesday's start to the season. From goals predictions for Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl to whether Andrew Mangiapane can outscore the players he replaced, the end of the first Tuesday episode of ONR was as fun as it was all over the map.

From the way Alec Regula is potentially earning a spot despite low expectations heading into camp to Bowman trading for Connor Ingram to Noah Philp earning his spot, there are a handful of stories that popped up throughout the last few weeks that the boys may not have expected.Changing gears, we did a deeper dive on the Oilers' Connor Ingram trade and how it was a nice piece of work by Stan Bowman after so many people freaked out when the goalie passed through waivers. After clearing waivers, Stan Bowman turned around with a future considerations trade to land the goaltender at 40% retained from the Utah Mammoth, which added a valuable piece to the depth chart without having to pay anything to get it. The guys also discussed Kris Knoblauch signing a three-year extension with the Oilers, and how it is a well-deserved contract for one of the winningest coaches at this juncture in his NHL career.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 Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' roster at training camp, line combos, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about which forwards could be on the outside looking in when the pre-season wraps in just under two weeks. Whether it's David Tomasek, Curtis Lazar, or Mattias Janmark, there aren't actually that many names to choose from when it comes to the tweeners. As you'll hear, the boys don't necessarily know who will be the odd man out, but what's clear is that everyone was thinking the same thing.Changing gears, the guys looked at the Vasily Podkolzin contract extension and whether it was a bold bet for the Oilers to make on a player who had eight goals. While the $2.95 million AAV may have been surprising to some parts of the fanbase, given that he showed limited offence in his first campaign in Edmonton. Is there more offence there? Is he just what he is? With four years left in Edmonton, including this final year of his current deal, we have a lot of time to find out.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Kirill Kaprisov's contract situation in Minnesota, Mattias Ekholm wanting an extension, Oilers rookie camp, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether or not the Kirill Kaprisov situation in Minnesota is affecting the Connor McDavid negotiations. According to reports, Kaprisov turned down a $16 million, eight-year contract, which led to speculation about whether this decision is delaying McDavid's extension signing in Edmonton. That conversation led to another round of the boys talking about whether they're starting to get nervous about the captain taking his time.Turning the podcast to tonight's rookie game between the Oilers and Flames, the guys walked through some of the prospects everyone is most excited to watch. While all eyes will be on Matt Savoie and Ike Howard, there are other prospects worth following throughout the weekend, as they work their way into professional hockey. The guys also shared their thoughts on the leaked alternate jerseys that hit the web this past week, and brought in a bunch of people from the office to provide their takes as well.

On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Connor McDavid's contract nervousness, Draisaitl loving Vasily Podkolzin, lineup questions, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Stuart Skinner's position as the Oilers' starter, and whether or not he'll play the most games in net for the team this season. While everyone believes the team will have Stu in net to start the year, the boys were a little more split on whether he'll remain the team's starter when all is said and done. Following the experiment down the rabbit hole, Liam looked at the goaltenders who could be available via trade if Stan Bowman decides to go that route.Turning the podcast to the Connor McDavid contract situation, and whether or not anyone on the show is nervous about the Oilers' ability to get a deal done. While there is definitely some nerves given how long this extension is taking to get done, the boys still remain confident that Stan Bowman and Jeff Jackson will be able to follow through on their word. Of course, the longer this drags on without having McDavid's name on the dotted line, the louder the noise will grow around the situation.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 Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Connor McDavid's latest contract quotes, EA sports ratings, , and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Connor McDavid's quotes from yesterday, and how the hockey world is making a big deal about his quotes even though No. 97 didn't really say much. And while most people still think he's going to sign an extension with the Oilers, there are still plenty of hopeful Leafs fans who believe he's going to end up in Toronto. That said, the noise will undoubtedly continue until his name ends up on the dotted line. Changing gears, we looked at the limited Oilers news that's happened over the last week, including the new EA Sports ratings that dropped for the NHL 26 edition of the game that's set to launch in a few weeks. Starting with McDavid being the best-ranked player in the game for the second consecutive year, we examined whether he's properly rated at 97, given how significantly better he generally is than everyone else. We also discussed the other Oilers players and made some predictions about how they'll stack up.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. With just over two months left until the start of the 2025-26 season, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about an array of topics that were Oilers-related or not at all, but that's what happens in August.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Tyler's Ace Race, waiting on Connor McDavid, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about an under-the-radar player that everyone is excited to watch this coming season. From Stuart Skinner rebounding to Trent Frederic playing healthy as an Oiler for the first time to Adam Henrique having a better offensive season, there are plenty of players on the roster the boys are excited to watch. Needless to say, the squad is hopeful about what the current roster will be able to do in 2025-26. Looking at the limited news that happened this past week, the guys discussed a new goaltending rumour that suggested Edmonton could be interested in one of Detroit's many goaltenders. We also discussed recent speculation from John Shannon that suggested Connor McDavid's contract extension could come in cheaper than some folks expect. Talking about McDavid's extension led the boys to wonder when No. 97's name will end up on a contract, and Baggedmilk has a horrible feeling it's going to come through when everyone is on the golf course for the Oilersnation Open. 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 Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed bubble players, winning jobs at camp, PTOs, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Oilers' roster and whether any players who played last year could find themselves on the bubble. While many slots on the roster are likely written in ink, we looked at the fourth line and wondered if either of Mattias Janmark or Kasperi Kapanen could get beat out for a job. With plenty of competition fighting for those jobs, it's fair to ask if any of the veterans are at risk of losing a spot.Changing gears, the guys walked through the little Oilers news that's happened over the last week, including some minor league signings in Bakersfield, Connor McDavid's extension, and Andrew Mangiapane's new baby. And while there isn't much happening right now, that didn't stop the boys from yammering on about these limited items anyway. Even so, the big news everyone is waiting for is when Connor McDavid will sign his extension, and even though it's taking longer than we may hope, there's still no need to be concerned about having No. 97 back. 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 Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Western Conference contenders, goaltending, the Jays' run, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about which new Oiler the fellas are most excited to watch during the 2025-26 season. From Andrew Mangiapane signing as a free agent to Matt Savoie and Isaac Howard being two blue-chip prospects with plenty of upside, the guys were bullish on some of the new guys being able to contribute in a meaningful way. Of course, we are in the middle of Kool-Aid szn, so expecting anything less from the crew would be unwise at this stage of the summer.Changing gears, we looked at some of the extension rumours that came out last week. Bob Stauffer hinted on his show that there could be a run of contract extensions happening before the end of the month, and that hope for news had the fanbase buzzing. Sticking with contract extensions, we then looked at a report from Frank Seravalli where he guesses what Connor McDavid's extension will look like for value and term.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 Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Western Conference contenders, goaltending, the Jays' run, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Western Conference contenders and whether any of the teams with Stanley Cup dreams have gotten better. Outside of maybe the Vegas Golden Knights, who locked in Mitch Marner as their big free agent play, there aren't many other clubs you could say legitimately got better. Maybe that's the boys drinking the July Kool-Aid, but everyone on the podcast still feels bullish on Edmonton's chances to get through the west.Next, we kicked off the news segment of the podcast with a quick recap of the limited news items that had occurred over the last week and speculated on whether we would receive any new updates over the next handful of days or weeks. With nothing happening, we looked at some quotes from Corey Perry about leaving Edmonton, Warren Foegele's wedding, and ran through a few quotes from Stan Bowman about the goaltending. 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. With just over two months left until the start of the 2025-26 season, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about why we should feel confident heading into this next season and how the Oilers are a much different hockey team this time around.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed mid-summer rumours, new coaches, the 2025-26 NHL schedule, the new CBA, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the NHL rumour mill and whether any of the remaining names would be of interest here in Edmonton. While everyone thinks the roster is mostly set, that doesn't mean that Stan Bowman won't still be working the phones to seek potential upgrades regardless of the position. Will Bowman surprise us with a trade no one sees coming? Is he done making moves for now?Changing gears, we looked through some of the news that came down the pipe over the last week, and gave our takes on what's still left to be done. From the CBA being extended to the 2025-26 NHL schedule being released to where the Oilers are with their goalie search, the guys walked through all of the biggest stories in Edmonton. Needless to say, we're in the summer dead zone for NHL news, but that doesn't mean there isn't still plenty of Oilers topics to talk about. 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. After punching their ticket to the Stanley Cup Final, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about why we should feel confident heading into this rematch against Florida, and how the Oilers are a much different hockey team this time around.

Free agency day means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your earholes and bring you up to date on everything going on with the Edmonton Oilers. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Evan Bouchard extension, the NHL Draft, Kasperi Kapanen, and much more.We kicked off the Monday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about where everyone is at with Evan Bouchard's four-year, $10.5m AAV contract, and whether it's not more of a problem that Bowman wasn't able to lock in the max term. We also discussed the Oilers re-signing both Kasperi Kapanen and Noah Philp before they were able to reach free agency, likely with the plan of having both of these players start on the opening day roster. Chances are, the Oilers are going to be tight for cap space when October rolls around, and they'll need cheaper deals on the books to fill holes in the roster.With plenty of time left to go until the deals slow down, the boys walked through some of our former friends who signed elsewhere on Tuesday, including Corey Perry's new deal in Los Angeles and Connor Brown's contract in New Jersey. While we all expected a quieter day in Edmonton given the team's lack of cap space, that doesn't make it any easier to see contributing roster players sign for big smoke in other markets. Regardless, the deals signed in the early hours on July 1st don't mean the Oilers are anywhere close to done, but that didn't stop many Oilers fans from being disappointed anyway.Regardless of what the Oilers have done or haven't done yet, there's little doubt that teams are spending big money on free agents with the salary cap expected to fly up over the next handful of years. In fact, one could make the argument that the Oilers could be better off avoiding some of these overpriced free agents, especially with the dollars that some mid-tier UFAs are signing on extended deals. Is that coping? Potentially yes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed what's to come for the Oilers, Trent Frederic's new contract, the NHL Draft, free agency, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about the Trent Frederic contract extension and what everyone's first thoughts are on the deal. From the max-term contract to the $3.85m AAV to the no-trade protection of various types throughout the life of the contract, the boys had plenty to say about our newest long-term friend.Changing gears, we explored some of the latest news and rumours surrounding the Oilers as they head into the offseason, and assessed the realism of these ideas given the team's limited cap space. Naturally, we all have high hopes that Stan Bowman will be able to make some magic happen, but we all know that many of the hopes and dreams we all have for the franchise. 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. With the NHL Draft and free agency on deck, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about what to expect over the next week, and how the Oilers could look like a much different hockey team by this time next week.

Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed what's to come for the Oilers, getting over the disappointment of the Stanley Cup loss, Connor McDavid's contract, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about where the Oilers go next after falling in the Stanley Cup Final for the second straight season. From injecting more youth and speed into the lineup to finding players via trade that can stick around for more than just a playoffs run, there are plenty of directions Stan Bowman can go, and it will be fascinating to see how many changes are made over the summer. Changing gears, we dove into the Connor McDavid contract extension noise, and how every fanbase outside of Edmonton is using the Oilers' Stanley Cup loss as an opportunity to dunk on the second-best team in the NHL. Born out of jealousy, there is so much noise and dissecting of a single clip from McDavid's 17-minute press conference, and nothing will be more satisfying than when a deal gets done here in Edmonton. 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. After punching their ticket to the Stanley Cup Final, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about why we should feel confident heading into this rematch against Florida, and how the Oilers are a much different hockey team this time around.

Whether it's the Florida blue line being a touch slower than expected or the way Paul Maurice utilized his bench, there were some details in the game that no one expected from the Florida Panthers. That said, we all know the Panthers are going to be much better than they were on Wednesday, and that will be a significant challenge for the Oilers.

On today's podcast, the guys previewed Game 1 between the Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers, Connor Brown's return to the lineup, expectations, and more.The guys kicked off the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about which of the three teams the Oilers beat in the playoffs will look the most different by the time next season rolls around. As you'll hear, the boys made cases for the Stars and Kings being the most likely to make changes, but who knows what can happen, given that Edmonton has knocked out both of those clubs for consecutive seasons. Changing gears, we looked ahead to Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final and examined any potential advantages the Oilers might have over the Panthers. From a line-by-line breakdown to the Oilers being healthier and offering ideas on how to take advantage of any of Florida's deficiencies, there are plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the rematch going better than it did a year ago. Even though there's no doubt the Panthers are a good team, the Oilers are too. Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, keys to victory vs. the Panthers, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can get the job done in the final rematch. 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 we saw through the first three rounds.

Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Edmonton Oilers' series win over the Dallas Stars, depth scoring, Pete DoBoer yanking Jake Oettinger, a Florida Panthers rematch, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about why this year will end with a different result than last year. Whether it's their experience in these moments, better depth scoring, and an increase in defensive puck movement, everyone on the podcast thinks this team isn't particularly close to being the same club that faced Florida a year ago. As bullish as everyone is about the Oilers' chances, we also paid our respects to a Florida club that is undoubtedly very good.Looking back at Game 5, we started the recap conversation from the series win over Dallas with a chat about Pete DeBoer's decision to pull Jake Oettinger and then sewer him in his post-game presser. Are those the actions and words of a coach that will be back next year? From there, we discussed the Oilers' depth coming through again in Game 5 and how it represents a major upgrade in the postseason over anything we've seen before. 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.

Tuesday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been recorded and edited, and is set to massage your earholes. On today's podcast, the guys previewed Game 3 between the Edmonton Oilers vs. Dallas Stars, Connor Brown's injury, Viktor Arvidsson, and more.The guys kicked off the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about our favourite memories from the current playoff run. From the way the Oilers bounced back after two early losses against Los Angeles to dusting off the Vegas Golden Knights to Stuart Skinner looking better than anyone expected, there are plenty of fantastic storylines from the first 14 games. As you'll hear, everyone had different memories to share, and it was fun to re-live some of those memories. Looking ahead to Game 4, the boys began the preview by examining what Viktor Arvidsson brings to the table as a replacement for the injured Connor Brown. Coles Notes: We need him to play like the Viktor Arvidsson who annoyed the Oilers for years as a King. We also walked through the new line combinations and discussed whether it makes sense to have McDavid and Draisaitl starting on the same line. Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, keys to victory vs. the Stars in Game 4, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can get the job done for a second straight night on home ice. 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 we saw earlier in the series, even with the win on Sunday afternoon.

Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Edmonton Oilers' Game 1 loss, what they need to do to rebound in Game 2, the Carolina Hurricanes getting demolished, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of the podcast with a delicious debate about whether the boys think Game 2 is a must-win situation for the Oilers. Teams that go up 2-0 in a best-of-seven playoff series have gone on to win that series 87.5 percent of the time in NHL history, so while it may not be a literal must-win game, it's hard to argue against it in the spiritual sense. Even so, the boys are all confident in Edmonton's ability to bounce back after a tough outing, considering how many times they've already done it.Looking ahead to Game 2, we walked through some of the adjustments we'd like to see the team make to avoid repeating the same mistakes that led to Dallas scoring five unanswered goals. From the PK needing to be better to the boys needing to be more disciplined in general, we actually didn't have too many notes to offer, as 40 of the 60 minutes in Game 1 went incredibly well. Of course, no one cares about silver linings at this point in the season, but that didn't stop the boys from shedding some sun on the situation anyway.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. After dropping Game 1 to Dallas in the worst possible way, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about why we shouldn't be panicking over one loss, even if it was an ugly one.

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 previewed the Edmonton Oilers vs. Dallas Stars rematch, Mattias Ekholm's nearing a return, Kris Knoblauch's line combination changes, and more.The guys kicked off the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about how the Oilers matchup against the Dallas Stars. While many fans were nervous about the L.A. Kings and Vegas Golden Knights, a significant portion of the fan base is feeling very bullish about Round 3. Even though the Stars are a very strong hockey club, are Oilers fans feeling too confident about getting through to the Stanley Cup Final before a single game has even been played?Sticking with the Western Conference Final preview, we looked ahead at what's to come in this year's rematch against the Dallas Stars. Starting with Mattias Ekholm returning to practice with the main group, and whether that move signals his return to the lineup. Given that he hasn't played in nearly two months, does it make sense to rush him back a little bit despite the rest of the club playing as well as they are?Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, keys to victory vs. the Stars, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can get the job done for a second straight year in the WCF. 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 two rounds against L.A. and Vegas.

Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Edmonton's series win over Vegas, what to expect from the Western Conference Final, and much more.The boys started the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about who everyone would prefer to face in the Western Conference Final if they could wave a magic wand and make it happen. Whether you think Edmonton has a better chance against Winnipeg or Dallas, there are angles you could run with for why the Oilers matchup against either team, but thinking about the next opponent was a fun debate. Looking back at the week that was, we walked through the Oilers' performance, including their back-to-back shutouts against the Golden Knights, and how our side was able to strengthen as the series progressed. What stuck throughout the entire series, though, was Edmonton's ability to get goals at key moments from depth players at times when it mattered most. A perfect example was how Kasperi Kapanen sat out the first nine games of the playoffs before returning and making an immediate impact. 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 after those first two losses to L.A., 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.

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.

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.

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.

On Tuesday's episode of Oilersnation Radio, we predicted that the next time we spoke on the podcast, we'd be discussing the Oilers' series win. Getting that prediction right made for a very fun episode of ONR to close out the week. 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 boys kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about our favourite moment from the Oilers' first-round series win over the Kings and what moment we will still be thinking about years down the line. From the way Edmonton roared back from being down 2-0 to the way the depth scoring came flooding in to help close things out, there are plenty of options for core memories to lock in from what was a wild ride in round one.Continuing the conversation about Game 6, we wondered what losing to the Oilers for four consecutive years would do to the Los Angeles Kings. Given that Los Angeles is clearly not good enough to compete with the big dogs in the Pacific Division, are they nearing a point when the Kings would consider tearing it down and trying to start over?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 amazing how much things can change in a week, isn't it? Especially when you remember that the Oilers were down 2-0 in the series at this point last week. 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 this week's podcast, the guys discussed the Edmonton Oilers' series comeback, what to expect from Game 5, Leon Draisaitl's dominance, and much more.The boys started the Tuesday episode of ONR with a discussion about Rick Tocchet being out as head coach in Vancouver after the team released a statement that said they've parted ways, only a year after he won Coach of the Year. Getting into the regularly scheduled programming, we looked back at Kris Knoblauch's decision not to challenge Warren Foegele's goal in Game 4. As you'll hear, the boys were split on the play.Looking back at Game 4, we started the review by discussing Leon Draisaitl's brilliance. Not only did he register four points in a critical game, but he also extended his postseason point streak against the Kings to 18 games. In that stretch, Draisaitl has amassed an unbelievable 35 points. The guys also discussed Evan Bouchard's incredible run of postseason offence, which ranks him second only to Bobby Orr in league history.Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, Knoblauch's decision to roll with Calvin Pickard, keys to victory in Game 5, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can get the job done.
