Oilers look to rebound in Dallas for Game 2

Ep. 467

Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Edmonton Oilers' Game 1 loss, what they need to do to rebound in Game 2, the Carolina Hurricanes getting demolished, and much more.

We kicked off the Friday episode of the podcast with a delicious debate about whether the boys think Game 2 is a must-win situation for the Oilers. Teams that go up 2-0 in a best-of-seven playoff series have gone on to win that series 87.5 percent of the time in NHL history, so while it may not be a literal must-win game, it's hard to argue against it in the spiritual sense. Even so, the boys are all confident in Edmonton's ability to bounce back after a tough outing, considering how many times they've already done it.

Looking ahead to Game 2, we walked through some of the adjustments we'd like to see the team make to avoid repeating the same mistakes that led to Dallas scoring five unanswered goals. From the PK needing to be better to the boys needing to be more disciplined in general, we actually didn't have too many notes to offer, as 40 of the 60 minutes in Game 1 went incredibly well. Of course, no one cares about silver linings at this point in the season, but that didn't stop the boys from shedding some sun on the situation anyway.

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 dropping Game 1 to Dallas in the worst possible way, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about why we shouldn't be panicking over one loss, even if it was an ugly one.

Evander Kane has been racking up the penalty minutes and we asked the question, “Is Evander Kane a liability right now?”Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of Oilersnation Radio with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers.

  • 470. Oilers vs. Panthers rematch in the Stanley Cup Final

    55:50||Ep. 470
    Tuesday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been recorded and edited, and is set to massage your earholes. On today's podcast, the guys previewed Game 1 between the Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers, Connor Brown's return to the lineup, expectations, and more.The guys kicked off the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about which of the three teams the Oilers beat in the playoffs will look the most different by the time next season rolls around. As you'll hear, the boys made cases for the Stars and Kings being the most likely to make changes, but who knows what can happen, given that Edmonton has knocked out both of those clubs for consecutive seasons. Changing gears, we looked ahead to Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final and examined any potential advantages the Oilers might have over the Panthers. From a line-by-line breakdown to the Oilers being healthier and offering ideas on how to take advantage of any of Florida's deficiencies, there are plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the rematch going better than it did a year ago. Even though there's no doubt the Panthers are a good team, the Oilers are too. Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, keys to victory vs. the Panthers, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can get the job done in the final rematch. 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 we saw through the first three rounds.
  • 469. Oilers punch their ticket to the Stanley Cup Final

    01:22:12||Ep. 469
    Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Edmonton Oilers' series win over the Dallas Stars, depth scoring, Pete DoBoer yanking Jake Oettinger, a Florida Panthers rematch, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about why this year will end with a different result than last year. Whether it's their experience in these moments, better depth scoring, and an increase in defensive puck movement, everyone on the podcast thinks this team isn't particularly close to being the same club that faced Florida a year ago. As bullish as everyone is about the Oilers' chances, we also paid our respects to a Florida club that is undoubtedly very good.Looking back at Game 5, we started the recap conversation from the series win over Dallas with a chat about Pete DeBoer's decision to pull Jake Oettinger and then sewer him in his post-game presser. Are those the actions and words of a coach that will be back next year? From there, we discussed the Oilers' depth coming through again in Game 5 and how it represents a major upgrade in the postseason over anything we've seen before. 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.

  • 468. Oilers look for the stranglehold over Stars in Game 4

    01:02:31||Ep. 468
    Tuesday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been recorded and edited, and is set to massage your earholes. On today's podcast, the guys previewed Game 3 between the Edmonton Oilers vs. Dallas Stars, Connor Brown's injury, Viktor Arvidsson, and more.The guys kicked off the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about our favourite memories from the current playoff run. From the way the Oilers bounced back after two early losses against Los Angeles to dusting off the Vegas Golden Knights to Stuart Skinner looking better than anyone expected, there are plenty of fantastic storylines from the first 14 games. As you'll hear, everyone had different memories to share, and it was fun to re-live some of those memories. Looking ahead to Game 4, the boys began the preview by examining what Viktor Arvidsson brings to the table as a replacement for the injured Connor Brown. Coles Notes: We need him to play like the Viktor Arvidsson who annoyed the Oilers for years as a King. We also walked through the new line combinations and discussed whether it makes sense to have McDavid and Draisaitl starting on the same line. Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, keys to victory vs. the Stars in Game 4, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can get the job done for a second straight night on home ice. 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 we saw earlier in the series, even with the win on Sunday afternoon.
