It’s been a slow week for the Edmonton Oilers, despite the start of free agency. The club signed a couple of players — Andrew Mangiapane and Curtis Lazar — but has yet to address goaltending or make any changes on the blue-line. Has general manager Stan Bowman done enough, or is the team still missing a few pieces to truly compete? The guys kick things off with the Delicious Debate, brought to you by Odd Company.

Despite the lack of big-name additions, reports linked the Oilers to college standout Isaac Howard. A former first-round pick of the Tampa Bay Lightning, Howard has reportedly declined to sign with the Bolts. Edmonton is rumoured to have made a trade offer for his rights, but it wasn’t enough. Should the Oilers continue to pursue Howard, and would he actually move the needle?

Later in the episode, the guys discuss potential goaltending options, how the roster might shape up next season, and whether Evan Bouchard deserves a spot on Team Canada. The show wraps up with Ask the Idiots and the Hot and Cold Performers segment.

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.

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.

It’s almost been a week since the Edmonton Oilers lost in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final to the Florida Panthers. With that, transaction discuss has begun.

It’s clear the Oilers are wanting a new goaltender, but where could that player come from? Tyler, Liam, Dan and Zach discuss the possibility of acquiring Thatcher Demko from the Vancouver Canucks or John Gibson from the Anaheim Ducks. Would the Canucks be willing to make a trade with a division rival? What is the price for Gibson, after he said he’d be willing to waive his no-trade clause to join the Oilers?

Furthermore, besides acquiring a goaltender, what would a perfect offseason look like for Stan Bowman? The guys discussed talked about it during there Odd Company Delicious Debate. Do the Oilers need another top six forward? Do the prospects need more love? Is signing Connor McDavid the biggest priority?

Finally, the closed out the show discussing the 2025 Hall of Fame class, which included former Oiler Duncan Keith. That lead to the conversation of how many current Oilers could make the hall of fame?

All that and more on this Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio.

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.

Tonight’s Game 6 is do-or-die for the Edmonton Oilers, and on the latest episode of Oilersnation Radio, we break down exactly what needs to happen for them to extend the series. Edmonton’s margin for error is gone, and it starts with tightening up defensively and staying out of the penalty box.

We dive into whether the Oilers need even more from Connor McDavid. He’s been producing, but in a game of this magnitude, Edmonton’s captain has to dominate every shift — offensively and defensively. With Leon Draisaitl still quiet, the pressure on McDavid is massive.

Then there’s the Sergei Bobrovsky problem. The Florida netminder has been lights-out, but is there a formula to crack him? We look at where the Oilers’ chances are coming from, and what needs to change to finally solve Bob.

Of course, we also look at the odds. Is now the time to back the Oilers on the moneyline? Could tonight be the McDavid multi-point game bettors have been waiting for? Tune in for all that and more on Oilersnation Radio — your go-to for everything Oilers this playoff run.
