Oilersnation Radio

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 Mike Babcock press conference, Jason Dickinson's new deal, Connor Murphy re-signing, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Mike Babcock press conference, and what everyone thought about our first look at the team's newest coach. While everyone was curious how today was going to go, what wasn't overly surprising was that Mike Babcock didn't really answer those questions with any honesty. Whether it was his refusing to admit faults in Columbus or tap-dancing some of the tougher questions, there are still plenty of unanswered questions that will only be solved in time. Shifting gears, the guys continued on with Babcock conversation by wondering what they think is most likely to come next now that the press conference is done. We got some free agents signed this week in Jason Dickinson and Connor Murphy, but with free agency kicking off in just over a week, we're about to find out if having Babcock behind the bench will impact the calibre of player the Oilers might attract. While it was great that Dickinson and Murphy believed in the team enough to extend, that doesn't necessarily mean the same will be true for players who Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, the first edition of Reece's Game, which ended up being tennable, and a quick chat on what to expect from Canada's matchup against Switzerland at the World Cup. If Canada draws or wins, they will punch their ticket through to the round of 32. If they win, they will begin the round at home instead of having to travel abroad. Needless to say, the footy fever is alive and well at Nation HQ. 🤝 SPONSORS🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION)🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/

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 Darnell Nurse trade rumours, where he might end up, the incoming Mike Babcock press conference, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Mike Babcock becoming the Oilers' next head coach, and whether there's anything he can do to win over the Oilers fans who are not at all happy about the decision. Given the Oilers are making this decision not caring about the fanbase's opinion, there's little doubt that the noise surrounding this decision will be incredibly loud. That led the boys to wonder what kinds of questions the media will be asking about the situation and what to expect going forward. Shifting gears, the guys continued on with another round of Darnell Nurse trade talk. The boys had David Pagnotta on Oilersnation Everyday on Friday afternoon, and he pitched a couple of ideas on what a Nurse deal might look like. The options seem to be that the Oilers either hold some salary for a better return, or accept a lesser trade to clear out every dollar. Is there a scenario where Edmonton can actually make a hockey trade? Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, Ask the Idiots questions, and Hot and Cold Performers to wrap up the week. The guys also discussed the Stanley Cup Final, the Hurricanes winning it all, and how the entire office is bought in on the World Cup. While the Nation HQ staff may not know what's going on very often, that hasn't stopped the squad from getting excited anyway. 🤝 SPONSORS🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION)🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/🎙️ Subscribe to Oilersnation for daily Oilers coverage, live shows, and exclusive player interviews → https://www.youtube.com/@oilersnation

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 Darnell Nurse's trade request, where he might end up, the Mike Babcock situation, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether or not Darnell Nurse carries more risk than some fans are acknowledging. Given the minutes he plays and his constant availability, it's worth having a discussion about whether or not moving on from the player will create a bigger hole than some people think. While there's no debate that the contract has become an issue, there is still a strong hockey player there that the team will likely be without when the next season rolls around.Shifting gears, the guys continued with the Darnell Nurse conversation with a look at what trading him might even look like. His contract is obviously a massive part of the story when it comes to moving him, but that shouldn't suggest that Nurse carries zero value on the trade market. But what kind of trade should Oilers fans even expect? From there, the boys spoke about the never-ending coaching drama that's raging on after news broke earlier in the week that the team is interested in Mike Babcock. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk, Ask the Idiots questions, and Hot and Colder Performers to wrap up the week. The guys also discussed the Stanley Cup Final and how the Carolina Hurricanes have a chance to close things out in Game 6 on Sunday night. They also discussed the NBA Finals and how the Knicks' comeback wins have been wild to watch. Speaking of wild to watch, seeing Knicks fans beating up Spurs fans just for wearing team merch ranks right up there for being nuts. 🤝 SPONSORS🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION)🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/

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 Mike Babcock coaching hire, the public's reaction to the move, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Tuesday emergency episode of ONR with a look at the Oilers' decision to bring in Mike Babcock as their new head coach. After weeks of hearing Bruce Cassidy's name as the main target for the job, it was a stunning development to see Mike Babcock's name attached to the team, given all of the recent history and baggage associated with this specific candidate. While there's zero doubt about the resume, the reality is that not much has gone well for Babcock since winning with Detroit nearly 20 years ago. Needless to say, the fanbase's reaction was as spicy as expected, and that's why we gathered for an emergency episode of ONR to break things down.Sticking with the Babcock conversation, we looked back at some of his coaching controversies and wondered whether the Oilers will be asking for him to change, or if the franchise is expecting that same guy to show up and turn things around. Given the franchise's messaging that they wanted a firmer approach behind the bench, it always seemed like it would be a short list of candidates, but the boys certainly didn't think there was a world where Babcock was the solution. Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a quick update on some of the drama that's kicked up at Nation HQ over the last week, including the growing Duck Mystery and the fallout from the office World Cup draft.🤝 SPONSORS🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION)🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/

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 Darnell Nurse rumours, free agency, the Stanley Cup Final, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Darnell Nurse rumours that kicked up this week after Mark Spector wrote an article at Sportsnet, citing that the player and team are heading for a split. And while the rumours certainly got Oilers fans talking, there is no guarantee that Stan Bowman will be able to find a suitor for a contract this big. There's also the angle that removing Darnell Nurse creates a 20-minute hole on the back end that will need to be filled.Shifting gears, the boys looked at a burgeoning scandal that's happening at Nation HQ after a bunch of tiny plastic duckshades had been appearing around the office. As you'll hear, the appearance of the Ducks around the office has prompted an offseason investigation that is taking up everyone's bandwidth until the mystery is solved. Getting back to hockey, the boys spent some time looking at the Stanley Cup Final, and how both teams are showing reasons why either could win. 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 that was. With the conference finals nearly wrapped up, the guys spent the bulk of the podcast moving through a range of topics, most related to the Oilers' needs for the off-season, some not, but that’s the way things go on the Friday episode of ONR.🤝 SPONSORS🙌 Powered by Bet365 → http://www.bet365.ca/ (Use code: NATION)🥙 Swiss Donair → https://swissdonair.com/
