Oilersnation Radio Episode 217 – Ben Stelter, Tyler Benson, and the #NationVacation to Toronto

It’s Friday afternoon and that means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has wrapped and is here to help you get through what’s left of your week. On today’s show, we talked about Ben Stelter, the Pacific Division, and a whole lot more.

To kick off this week’s podcast, we got started by honouring Ben Stelter who unfortunately lost his battle with brain cancer after capturing the city’s hearts and imagination. From the way the boys embraced Ben as part of the team to the way the city rallied around him from the moment we met him, it goes without saying that he captured our imaginations in a way that no one could have expected. Turning to hockey, we spent some time looking at the Pacific Division and took a few guesses as to how the eight teams will shake out over the course of the season. Is this Edmonton’s division to lose? Where does Calgary rank? From there, we looked at Tyler Benson signing a fresh one-year contract and what it will take for him to crack a roster that’s looking deeper than it has in quite some time. Lastly, we wrapped up this week’s podcast with another edition of Ask the Idiots and Hot and Cold performers.
