One more Oilers game before the Beltmas break, and Connor Ingram gets the start

Ep. 513

It's Tuesday afternoon, and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today's episode, the guys discussed the Oilers' Tuesday's matchup vs. the Flames, Connor Ingram's first win of the season, Baggedmilk's Trivia, and much more.


We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about what has been the most surprising storyline of the NHL season so far. Whether it's the lack of success in Edmonton for Andrew Mangiapane or Trent Frederic for the Oilers, the Leafs struggling as mightily as they are, or how a team like the Ducks are fighting well above their weight class, there are plenty of stories to choose from.


Changing gears, we looked at the latest injury updates from the Oilers. Given that Edmonton hasn't had a single game with a full, healthy lineup, the boys discussed the latest round of updates and whether the team will ever be able to ice a full roster. The guys also spent a few minutes talking about Trent Frederic being healthy scratched, and also what he needs to do to get back in the team's good graces.


Finally, we wrapped up the episode of ONR with another round of Baggedmilk's Trivia, including some Oilers vs. Flames-specific questions ahead of Tuesday's Battle of Alberta. If you've heard any of the previous editions of BM's trivia, you'll know that Baggedmilk has been way off on some of the questions, which keeps Liam in the role of trivia marshal and auditor. Did Baggedmilk get his questions right? You'll have to listen to find out for sure.

  • Was Trading For Jarry A Mistake? The Oilers Goaltending Situation Explained

    13:02|
    Ask Dubey is back for episode 32!Before diving into your Oilers questions, Dubey reacts to the wild Stadium Series matchup between the Lightning and Bruins — including an old-school goalie fight at center ice between Jeremy Swayman and Andrei Vasilevskiy. A rare sight, even rarer that both goalies stayed in the game. Dubey breaks down why moments like that fire everyone up, and why goalie fights are still such a tricky situation in today’s NHL.From there, it’s straight into your questions. Who’s really to blame in a blowout — the goalie or the team in front of him? Can players mentally drift with the Olympics right around the corner? And of course, the big one Oilers fans are debating right now: did Edmonton make a mistake trading for Tristan Jarry?Dubey gives a calm, honest breakdown of the Oilers’ goaltending situation, why the Skinner change needed to happen, and why fans shouldn’t be riding the emotional roller coaster on a game-to-game basis. Perspective, context, and goalie logic — all in one episode.Drop your questions for future episodes using #AskDubey in the comments or on any OilersNation social platform.0:00 – Stadium Series chaos & goalie fight reaction2:40 – Who’s really responsible for blowout losses?5:23 – Do players mentally check out before the Olympics?7:55 – Did the Oilers make a mistake trading for Jarry?12:01 – Final thoughts & how to submit your questionsDrop your questions for future episodes using #AskDubey or leave them in the comments below 👇SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

  • 522. The Oilers' rough run into the break, coaching changes, and healthy scratches

    01:06:25||Ep. 522
    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' disastrous wrap to their pre-Olympic schedule, Leon Draisaitl's coaching comments, line combos, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Paul Coffey rumours after some rumblings came over the last handful of days that the Oilers could be considering bringing the Hall of Famer back behind the bench. Given how successful the defence was under Coffey's tenure, the boys on the podcast all believe it would make perfect sense to bring him back and see if he can work magic again.Shifting gears, the guys looked at the Oilers' horrible finish before the break and how incredibly frustrating it was to watch them finally land their first three-game win streak of the season, only to give those games right back immediately. That led the boys to wonder if there are more coaching issues than just what's happening on defence. We also discussed the losses to Toronto and Calgary and how frustrating both results were, given Edmonton's opportunity to pick up points against struggling teams.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 2025-26 season past the midway points, the guys spent the bulk of the podcast moving through a range of topics, some related to the Oilers and others not, but that’s the way things go on the Friday episode of ONR.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 🙌👍🏼 Powered by @bet365 – Whatever the moment, it’s Never Ordinary at bet365.Download the app today and use promo code: NATIONhttp://www.bet365.ca/👍🏼 Swiss Donair:https://swissdonair.com/

    12:18|
    Ask Dubey Episode 31 is here, and there’s a LOT to get into — from historic Oilers defencemen performances to big-picture questions about goaltending, free agents, and life in Edmonton.Dubey kicks things off by showing love to the Oilers’ blue line after back-to-back hat tricks from defencemen (yes, really), breaking down Evan Bouchard’s Bouch Bombs and Mattias Ekholm’s unreal highlight-reel goals. If the Oilers can get even half of this kind of production from the back end consistently, it could be a massive boost heading toward playoff time.From there, Dubey answers your questions, including:• Has Jarry officially earned the Oilers’ starting job?• Where does Edmonton’s goaltending duo rank across the NHL?• How valuable is having a true goalie tandem in an Olympic, condensed schedule year?• Has Edmonton become a more desirable destination for free agents?• How different is the city now compared to Dubey’s playing days?We also get some great storytelling as Dubey shares his most memorable moments as an Oiler, including his NHL debut in Vancouver, a wild win in LA that helped earn a one-way contract, and getting the opening-night start against Pittsburgh.As always, this episode is packed with insight, honesty, and a few laughs along the way.Drop your questions for future episodes using #AskDubey or leave them in the comments below 👇SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers' win over the Sharks, the Bobby McMann trade rumours, Connor McDavid's heater, line combos, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Oilers' bottom six and how Kris Knoblauch can get more out of those players even though they're playing limited minutes. From finding roles for players who don't play much to stripping back the minutes for McDavid and Draisaitl, the boys offered their take on what the coaching staff can do to get more guys involved. On the other hand, is this even a problem?Shifting gears, the guys looked at last night's win over the San Jose Sharks and how the Oilers pulled off a third-period miracle to win their third game in a row. Starting with Kris Knoblauch pulling the goalie with four minutes left, the guys talked about where they were and how they felt when they saw the Oilers throw up the Hail Mary. From there, they spoke about Macklin Celebrini trying to wave off Mattias Ekholm's 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.

On today's episode, the guys discussed the Oilers' record-setting run by defencemen, Josh Samanski's NHL debut, and much more.We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Josh Samanski's NHL debut, and how everyone thought the undrafted centre fared in his first game as an Oiler. While he played only 7:43 in TOI, Samanski was noticeable in his first game in the bigs, and the boys spent a few minutes talking about how he didn't look out of place. Given that he played two years of pro hockey in Germany, it definitely looked like he was comfortable playing in that third-line role.Changing gears, we looked at how the Oilers set two NHL records in Monday's game against the Ducks. Starting with the four goals by defencemen in a span of only 3:49, it was wild to see Edmonton's d-men getting into the rush with that much space as often as they were. From there, we looked at the back-to-back hat tricks by Evan Bouchard and Mattias Ekholm, and how it was the first time in NHL history where two defencemen scored hat tricks in consecutive games. Finally, we wrapped up the episode of ONR with another round of Baggedmilk's Trivia.

    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' loss to the Islanders, the end of Connor McDavid's point streak, Edmonton's goaltending dilemma, line combos, and more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether or not the Oilers are blowing their January homestand. Given that they've lost twice as many home games as they've won, it's hard not to think that Edmonton is dropping the ball on a golden opportunity to make up some ground in the standings. Shifting gears, the guys looked at last night's loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins and wondered how much of that loss the boys hung on Tristan Jarry, given that he allowed six goals on the night. While no one is saying Jarry was very good, the reality is that the skaters in front of him were just as bad, if not worse. We also discussed Leon Draisaitl's return to the lineup, and how it was a valiant effort by Drai, considering the heavy week he had and the long travel back from Germany. 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.

    It's Tuesday afternoon, and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today's episode, the guys discussed Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' 1000th game, back-to-back shutouts, Kasperi Kapanen's injury, and much more.We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about when the Oilers might consider talking to Connor Ingram about an extension. Given that our new friend has been playing incredibly well since his recall from Bakersfield, it's fair to wonder whether or when the organization might start thinking about keeping him around for a while. Is it too soon? How much would the boys be willing to offer the goalie in a new contract?Changing gears, we looked at Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' 1000th game that happened at Rogers Place on Thursday night, and how the team did a fantastic job paying tribute to their longest serving player. From the pre-game ceremony to scoring the eventual game winner, it was a wonderful night at Rogers Place and one the guys were thrilled to discuss. Changing gears, the boys looked at the Andrew Mangiapane situation and whether or not there's any way the Oilers can save the relationship. Is that even in the cards? Finally, we wrapped up the episode of ONR with another round of Baggedmilk's Trivia. With none of the other boys coming up with anything new, the guys went back to old faithful with a round of Devils-related Baggedmilk Trivia questions. Think you know your New Jersey history?
