Oilersnation Pre Game Podcast – Game 14 at Ottawa

Feb 8, 2021, 15:00 ESTUpdated: Feb 8, 2021, 15:07 EST
The Oilers will be looking to rebound from a disappointing performance on Saturday as they roll into Ottawa to take on the Senators. For Edmonton, this weekend’s Battle of Alberta presented an opportunity to extend their winning streak to four games and set the tone for the season series against their provincial rivals. Instead, Oilers fans are left questioning their goaltending and wondering if the team’s defensive issues will ever get solved.
Now, two wins in the next two nights against Ottawa won’t exactly do a lot to calm down some pessimistic Oilers fans, but that doesn’t mean these aren’t huge games. If the Oilers drop one of these games, the panic level will likely start to rise again.
These are big games, but really every game is huge this season and it will be important for the Oilers to bounce back tonight and not allow the letdown on Saturday night to snowball into a losing streak.
