  • Oilers Early Season Thoughts
    Oct 14 2025

    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 season

    We 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.

  • Edmonton Oilers Signings Continue As NHL Season Kicks Off
    Oct 11 2025

    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.

    With the NHL season kicking off, Devan breaks down the start of the Oilers season and what Connor McDavid's extension means to the NHL and the Oilers.


    Dubey gave his thoughts on the impact of a goalie tandem and how it can change, how long it takes to design a mask and who Dubey has worked with, why stopping a lot of low quality shots will always be easier than one high quality shot, and was Jordan Eberle's goal the nicest first NHL goal he's ever seen?

  • Edmonton Oilers Sign Two Big Pieces + Season Predictions
    Oct 8 2025

    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.

  • Knoblauch Extended, Oilers Add Ingram, and Storylines From Training Camp
    Oct 4 2025

    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' trade for Connor Ingram, Jake Walman's extension talks, line combos, and much more.


    We had some


    We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about what has been the biggest surprise through training camp and the pre-season. 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. With only a few days left to wait until the start of the 2025-26 season, 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 pre-season.

  • Oilers training camp decisions, Vasily Podkolzin's extension, and line combos
    Sep 26 2025

    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.

    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 only weeks left to wait until the start of the 2025-26 season, 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 before training camps kick off.

  • Who should start on the Oilers top line?
    Sep 19 2025

    It’s time for a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio as the crew sat down to go through all the headlines that have popped up throughout the early stages of Oilers training camp. Tyler, Dan, Liam and Reece kicked off the show by talking about the line combos that we saw during the team’s first practice of the season.


    Who should play with Connor McDavid? Who should take Zach Hyman’s spot in front of the net on the powerplay? Will Ike Howard make the team out of training camp? Where should Matt Savoie start the season? They answered all those questions with a handful of delicious debates.


    They then moved onto some talk about Stuart Skinner, who is down 15 pounds as he comes into camp. They talked about how this could impact his game and why maybe it was an issue last season.


    With a bunch of new players in different spots around the league, Tyler quizzed the guys on a handful of players who signed with new teams over the summer and one person ran away with this competition.


    They wrapped with some betting talk, which included a fun question about how many goals Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and how many goals he could score this season, and their hot and cold performers of the week.
