The weekend is almost here and that means we’re back with a brand new episode of Oilersnation Radio to make sense of everything that’s happened here in Edmonton and around the NHL over the last seven days. On this week’s show, we’re looking at cheering for Canada’s team, and a whole lot more.
Kicking off today’s episode, we jumped in with a look at the final four in the NHL playoffs and gave our takes on who we think would be the ideal Stanley Cup Final. Vegas vs Tampa? Can Montreal keep their Cinderella run going? Will the Islanders be able to suffocate the Lightning the way they did with the Bruins? Speaking of the Montreal Canadiens, we also had a discussion about whether or not it makes sense to cheer for the Habs because they’re the last team from north of the border. Next up, we looked at the NHL Award nominations that came out this week and whether or not there were any Oilers that got snubbed by not get a nod. Sticking with the Oilers, we looked at the hilarious reaction that happened amongst the fanbase after Devin Shore signed a two-year contract extension. Lastly, we we wrapped up this week’s podcast by looking at some of the players the Oilers have already lost to Europe and whether or not we think any of the other free agents will end up following suit.
