Talking about the 4 Nations Face-Off, and previewing Canada vs. USA
It's Friday afternoon, which means a new episode of Oilersnation Radio has been recorded and edited and is ready to massage your earholes. On today's podcast, we discussed Canada vs. Sweden, predicted what will happen against Team USA, and much more. We kicked off the newest episode of ONR with a discussion about the anthems at the 4 Nations tournament and whether we think it's appropriate to boo at a sporting event or if the fans should leave politics out of the equation. As you'll hear, no one on the podcast would boo at a hockey game, but they also weren't prepared to say that no one should do it. That said, it's a complicated situation for the NHL and one that doesn't seem to have an end in sight. Changing gears, Baggedmilk told a few stories from his quick trip to Montreal. Despite only being in the city for 39 hours, he had a lot to say about being at the 4 Nations Face-Off, Bell Centre hot dogs being overrated, and what it was like to be in the building for Canada vs. Sweden. Baggedmilk admitted he wasn't overly excited about the tournament leading up to that first game, but that changed almost immediately after walking into the Bell Centre for the first time. Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, we looked through some rumours surrounding the team as the trade deadline approaches on March 7th. Starting with the Noah Dobson rumour that had people excited, Liam threw cold water on the situation after Frank Seravalli appeared on Oilersnation Everyday and said the idea doesn't make sense from an Islanders perspective. We also looked at the latest trade board over at Daily Faceoff and tried to figure out which other names might be a fit. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of betting talk ahead of Saturday's matchup between Canada and the USA, some Ask the Idiots questions that were all over the board, and finally our Hot and Cold Performers of the week. As always, the final chunk of the podcast was all over the map with an array of topics and side quests. 💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/https://twitter.com/ONradiopodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/ https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/https://www.instagram.com/onradiopodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

It's Time for the 4 Nations Face-Off
It's Tuesday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your earholes and cover all of the Edmonton Oilers' biggest stories. This week, we're discussing the 4 Nations Face-Off, the Oilers' approach to the trade deadline, and much more. We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about how the NHL can get people more excited about the 4 Nations Face-Off. After cruising around social media, Baggedmilk got the sense that not everyone is dialled into the idea of the tournament taking over the next two weeks. As a result, the fellas came up with whatever ideas they could to try and raise the hype surrounding this one-off tourney. Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, we walked through Edmonton's loss to the Avalanche on Friday night and how it was a frustrating loss to see them go down the way they did. Starting with another tough night for Stuart Skinner, the Oilers had essentially lost that game before it even started after a string of costly errors put them in a hole in the first period. That had the boys wondering if Skinner's struggles have amplified the Oilers' need to acquire a goaltender, which led to Liam wondering where the John Gibson noise keeps coming from. Looking at some positive Oilers news, we talked about the incredible season Leon Draisaitl is having and how he seems to be getting better with each passing game. Even though some folks out east don't seem to appreciate his brilliance, watching him hit new levels and raise his game the way he has is a real treat to watch. Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode with a round of rumour talk before getting into some betting talk for the 4 Nations tournament.💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/https://twitter.com/ONradiopodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/ https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/https://www.instagram.com/onradiopodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

One last Oilers game before the 4 Nations break
Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to lead you into the weekend. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Jeff Skinner's spot in the lineup, Viktor Arvidsson's goal against the Blackhawks, Noah Philp being loaned to Bakersfield, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Jeff Skinner's spot in the lineup and whether he's doing enough to keep himself in the top six. Given that the winger has played well over the last handful of games, will that be enough for Kris Knoblauch? Or will the Oilers' coach continue to mix up his lines in the hopes of finding the perfect fit? As you'll hear, everyone is cautiously optimistic about Skinner's game, but everyone is still a little gun-shy based on his usage so far this season.Changing gears, we looked at Viktor Arvidsson's big goal against the Chicago Blackhawks and whether that beautiful snipe gave us some excitement that could get his offence going. Given that the Oilers paid him a bunch of money to score goals, having only seven on the year is certainly concerning, but that also means there's more there than we're seeing. We also touched on the Oilers loaning Noah Philp back to the Condors ahead of the 4 Nations break and how it's important that he keeps playing instead of sitting around here in Edmonton.We then looked at some recent quotes from Stan Bowman regarding his plans for the trade deadline. As you'll hear, it sounds like the Oilers are seeking depth as opposed to a major acquisition, but there's also no way that he's going to tip his entire hand. When asked about the goaltending, Bowman gave his vote of confidence for his goaltending tandem after there's been a lot of noise about upgraded that position.Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of the podcast with a random collection of topics, including some prop bets for Friday's Oilers game against the Avalanche, some Ask the Idiots questions from listeners, and Hot and Cold Performers to recap the best and worst moments from the past seven days. As always, the boys were all over the map with their answers, but that's the joy of opening up the end of the podcast for a little bit of shenanigans.💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/https://twitter.com/ONradiopodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/ https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/https://www.instagram.com/onradiopodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

Oilers goaltending, and three games left before the 4 Nations Face-Off
It's Tuesday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your earholes and cover all of the Edmonton Oilers' biggest stories. On this week's podcast, we discussed the Oilers' loss to Toronto, Kris Knoblauch's new line combos, NHL trade news, and much more.To kick off the first episode of ONR of the week, we started with a delicious debate about whether the Oilers have a goaltending problem and whether they should look at an upgrade between the pipes at the trade deadline. After a tough night for Stuart Skinner against Toronto on Saturday, the guys debated whether or not Stan Bowman should be looking elsewhere. While there was a lively debate about the topic, all of the guys still believed in Skinner but did agree that he needed to limit the highs and lows.Changing gears, we examined the Oilers' new line combos from yesterday's practice and asked everyone's opinion on whether this new trio would work. Before we even got through the first two lines, the conversation shifted to Viktor Arvidsson's lack of offence so far this season and whether that could result in him leaving town before his contract ends. We also discussed the first two games of John Klingberg and whether he's shown enough to make us look elsewhere for upgrades ahead of the trade deadline. We then ripped through all of the news that happened around here over the last week, including some trades that have happened around the NHL, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Tyler's new NHL Trade Rumour segment. If you're looking for a recap of some of the available names that that the Oilers could fish for at the trade deadline, Tyler has all the latest rumblings from around the NHL. With the deadline just over a month away, the silly szn rumours can only ramp up from here, and we'll make sure you're up to date. 💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/https://twitter.com/ONradiopodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/ https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/https://www.instagram.com/onradiopodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

Oilers blow it against the Red Wings, Brendon Saad lands in Vegas, and a Leafs preview
It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is recorded, edited, and ready to massage your eardrums. On this week's episode, the guys discussed Brendon Saad signing in Vegas,The boys kicked off the Friday episode of ONR by discussing Brendon Saad's signing with the Vegas Golden Knights. Given that there was some hope around Nation HQ that the Stan Bowman connection would lure Saad to Edmonton as a cheap free agent, it is slightly annoying that he wound up with a Pacific Division rival. As you'll hear, Rick didn't care that Saad ended up in Vegas, while Tyler and Liam made a case for how he would have fit in the Oilers' roster.Changing gears, we examined last night's 3-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings and how it was one of the more annoying losses we've seen recently. After a wonderful first period, the Oilers really duffed the second period with poor puck management, which allowed the Red Wings to get back in the game and fight their way to a win. We also looked at John Klingberg's Oilers debut and offered our first impressions on the Oilers' newest toy. Given that he hasn't played in over a calendar year, we all thought he played well in his first game and look forward to seeing how he progresses over the coming weeks. From there, we looked at the Oilers' quarter-century team for a total of 15 seconds, as no one on the podcast really cared about the rosters announced yesterday. If anything, the guys spent more time criticizing the Utah Hockey Club for ignoring their Coyotes and Jets history, while the current Jets included plenty of former Thrashers in their lineup. More importantly, Tyler walked everyone through the new cap numbers projected over the next three years and explained how this is fantastic news for the Edmonton Oilers. Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of the podcast with a random collection of topics, including some prop bets for the Super Bowl, some Ask the Idiots questions from listeners, and Hot and Cold Performers to recap the best and worst moments from the past seven days. As always, the boys were all over the map with their answers, but that's the joy of opening up the end of the podcast for a little bit of shenanigans. 💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/https://twitter.com/ONradiopodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/ https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/https://www.instagram.com/onradiopodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.
