Oilersnation Radio: Opportunity Knocks

We’re back from LA, the series is tied at two apiece, and with Game 5 on deck tonight at Rogers Place, the Oilers have a huge opportunity to take their first lead of the series.

To kick off the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio, we got started with a delicious debate about which Oiler needs to step up tonight in Game 5. Whether it’s Ryan Nugent-Hopkins or Kailer Yamamoto or Stuart Skinner between the pipes or Vinny on the backend, there are plenty of options for players that we’d love to see elevate their game tonight at Rogers Place. From there, we dove into some of the numbers from the series and whether there are some hints within that should leave us feeling confident ahead of tonight’s rematch. Diving into the game preview, we started off with Stuart Skinner getting back in the crease for Game 5 after getting pulled on Sunday night. As you’ll hear, we all think it was the right call and now it will be up to Stu to make the most of the opportunity. Lastly, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with another riveting round of Word Association that Tyler spent most of his morning crafting.
