  • Oilers beat Vegas, Leafs vs. Panthers, and looking ahead at the WCF
    May 16 2025

    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. Life comes at you fast, doesn't it?

  • Oilers put Golden Knights on the ropes with dominant Game 4 win
    May 13 2025

    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.

  • Oilers take both games in Vegas, keep the comeback win streak alive
    May 9 2025

    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?

  • Oilers vs. Golden Knights preview episode
    May 6 2025

    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.

  • Oilers close out the Kings for fourth straight year
    May 2 2025

    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.

  • Oilers with a chance at the series lead in Game 5
    Apr 29 2025

    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.

  • All eyes on the Oilers for pivotal Game 3
    Apr 25 2025

    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.
