Oilersnation Radio

Olympic heartbreak, goaltending pressure, and the Oilers’ search for consistency — it’s all on this week’s episode of Ask Dubey.

In this post-Olympic edition, Dubey opens with his thoughts on Canada’s loss in the gold medal game. From running into Connor Hellebuyck to the coin-flip nature of three-on-three overtime, he breaks down what went wrong — and why the lack of secondary scoring was the biggest surprise. Despite the disappointment, Dubey explains why Canada still played a dominant game and why Jordan Binnington did exactly what he was brought there to do.

From there, it’s classic Ask Dubey, diving into your questions about the Oilers’ goaltending situation and the rest of the NHL season.

This week’s topics include:

• Why some goalies thrive after leaving Edmonton
• Whether a reunion with Stuart Skinner is realistic
• The pressure of playing net in a market like Edmonton
• What a “successful” remainder of the season looks like for the Oilers goalies
• The importance of timely saves vs. highlight-reel stops
• Why consistency has been missing compared to past seasons
• And whether this team just needs one big heater to feel dominant again

Dubey gives honest insight into the mental side of goaltending, how narratives build in Canadian markets, and why sometimes a change of scenery is exactly what a player needs.

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' post-Olympic return, Connor McDavid's latest 100-point season, the NHL Trade Deadline, line combinations, trade targets, and more.
We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether Thursday's 8-1 win over L.A. helped everyone get over the 6-5 loss to the Ducks the night before. Aside from Rick feeling fine about both results, the rest of the boys were notably upset about the blown opportunity against Anaheim. That said, the Oilers are so inconsistent right now that it's hard to imagine how back-to-back games could end so differently.

Shifting gears, the guys looked at Tristan Jarry's struggles between the pipes and how his first couple of months as an Oiler have been anything but uplifting. That led to a conversation about how Kris Knoblauch should handle his goaltending rotation. Should the Oilers lean on Connor Ingram in the short term as the starter while Jarry works his way back up to form? We also ran through some of the Edmonton-related rumours heading into the trade deadline and whether any names tied to the Oilers might make sense.

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 entering the stretch drive, 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.

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 Team Canada vs. Team Czechia, Connor McDavid's success at the games, the State of the Nation survey results, and much more.

We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the Winter Games and what everyone's biggest takeaway was for Canada. Given that the standard in Canada for hockey is gold or bust, it's hard not to be disappointed with how things ended, especially given how dominant our boys were despite the loss. Either way, any excuses the fellas could come up with were all punctuated with the fact that the team lost the most important game of the tournament.

Changing gears, we looked ahead to the Oilers' first game back in their stretch drive and how these three games in California could end up among the most important of the year. Given that these are three Pacific Division opponents, finding ways to get points from those them is crucial for setting them up down the stretch. From there, the boys spoke about Brett Kulak being traded from Pittsburgh to Colorado, and how Kyle Dubas just keeps adding assets to his arsenal for whenever they decide to rebuild.

Finally, we wrapped up the episode of ONR with another round of Liam's Tenable game. With none of the other boys coming up with anything new, the guys went for another round of Liam's grouping game. Think you know how all of these topics fit together and where they rank? Props to Liam for coming up with a game, as the usual quizmaster didn't have the time to get one done for today. Did the quizmaster have to step in? Did Baggedmilk get his questions right? You'll have to listen to find out for sure.

Canada survives in absolute chaos, Olympic pressure is peaking, and the big-save conversation just got louder

On this week’s episode of Ask Dubey: Olympic Edition, former NHL goaltender Devan Dubnyk kicks things off by breaking down Canada’s dramatic overtime win over Czechia. From dominating possession but struggling to extend the lead, to the controversial missed six-men moment, Dubey explains why international hockey can flip in a single shift.

The spotlight quickly turns to the position everyone loves to debate: goaltending.

Dubey gives credit to Jordan Binnington for doing exactly what you need in these tournaments — making the right save at the right time — including a breakaway stop late in the third and a massive overtime save that set up Mitch Marner for the winner.

From there, it’s classic Ask Dubey, answering listener questions on:

• What “battling” really means when a goalie’s team looks chaotic
• Whether you can tell in the first five minutes if your defense doesn’t have it
• If goalies adjust technically when things feel off
• Whether the Edmonton Oilers need a major trade deadline shakeup
• Why a blockbuster move is unlikely — and why secondary scoring matters more
• The pressure and expectations of representing Team Canada internationally
• And how difficult it is for Olympic players (and non-Olympic players) to reset before the NHL stretch run

The episode wraps with Dubey reflecting on the unique mental challenge of playing for Canada — where gold is the expectation and anything less feels like failure — and what it really takes to handle that pressure in net.

Drop your questions using #AskDubey in the comments or on social — and hopefully next week we’re breaking down a Canadian gold medal.

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 Team Canada going to the gold medal game, Connor McDavid's new record, line combinations, trade targets, and more.

We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Team Canada's two tight wins in the elimination games and whether facing that adversity will help them in the gold medal game. Given that the team has needed consecutive comebacks to beat Czechia and Finland, the boys wondered if grinding through those two games would better prepare them for what's to come on Sunday morning.

Shifting gears, the guys looked at Team Canada's comeback win over Finland after the boys fell 2-0 early in the game, forcing a wild comeback over the final half. Starting with Connor McDavid setting an Olympic record with NHLers in the mix, it's been incredibly to watch No. 97 do his thing at such a high level. Even so, there was still controversy about the late penalty on Nathan MacKinnon that ultimately ended the game for Canada.

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 well past the midway point, 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.
