Oilersnation Radio: Oilers need this win against Philly, three-goal leads, and Tyler’s trade proposals

The Oilers are rolling into Tuesday’s matchup with the Flyers on a four-game losing streak, which means we had plenty to talk about on the brand new Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio. On today’s show, we’re looking at why the Oilers are blowing leads, the goaltending struggles, our rematch with Philadelphia, and a whole lot more

To kick off this week’s Tuesday podcast, we got started with a look at the Ryan O’Reilly trade that the Toronto Maple Leafs pulled off last week, and whether or not we would have made that same trade if it was available. Without a doubt, the Leafs got better after making this move, but they also spent a lot of draft picks to make it happen. From there, Tyler pitched a couple of different trade ideas for the boys to think about as armchair GMs. With the speculation out of the way, we dug into the Oilers’ four-game losing streak and what’s causing the boys to fall apart as they have been. Despite the fact that the Oilers are scoring plenty of goals, they’re giving up a tonne at the other end of the ice and it’s costing them points in the standings. Lastly, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with another riveting round of Word Association that Tyler put so much time together.
