Closing Time

Ep. 203

How about another fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio to look back at the Western Conference Finals and how everyone felt after getting swept by the Avalanche? On today’s show, we talked about what went on in the series, where the Oilers went wrong, what comes next, and a whole lot more.

To kick things off, we got started with a look back at Game 4 and what it was like to experience a Western Conference Final against one of the league's best teams. Whether it was the way the Avs were able to mostly shut down McDavid and Draisaitl to the way the Oilers couldn't get the breaks they needed at the times they needed, there were plenty of reasons that the Oilers didn't get the job done and sometimes you have to tip your cap to an opponent that was very good. From there we looked ahead at what's to come for the Oilers, including which players we think have played their last game for Edmonton and which ones we'd love to see back. Obviously, cap space is limited so we can't bring back everyone but certainly, there are some guys that should be prioritized over others. Lastly, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots before wrapping up with a look back at the best and worst moments from the Western Conference Finals.

Nation Birthday Recap, Oilers wins, and Saying Goodbye to the Germans

Ep. 276
The Nation's 15th Birthday party is in the books, the Oilers picked up a pair of key wins, and Mattias Ekholm continues to shine, which means we had plenty to talk about on the brand new Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio. On today’s show, we recapped Saturday's party at the Pint Downtown, the wins over Seattle and San Jose, and a whole lot more.To kick off this week’s Tuesday podcast, we got started with a look at our friends at Oilersnation Germany and what were our favourite memories from the week with our crew from overseas. Whether it was having them meet Leon Draisaitl, the Devin Shore chants, or the energy they brought throughout their trip to Edmonton, the Germans were a bundle of energy that was so nice to have around and we'll miss them greatly until the next time they come to town. From there, we looked at Oilersnation's 15th Birthday which happened at the Pint Downtown on Saturday, and how it was an event that was absolutely incredible to be a part of thanks to the amazing support we get from Nation Citizens. Turning things back to the Oilers, we then talked about the last two wins over Seattle and San Jose and how they weren't the prettiest you'll ever see but you have to appreciate the way the Oilers closed them out anyway. Getting to individual players, we also talked about Jack Campbell's continued struggles, Mattias Ekholm's heater, and how Zach Hyman still can't score without it being challenged. Lastly, we wrapped up the podcast with another riveting Word Association segment that Tyler spent literally seconds putting together.
