Oilersnation Pre Game Podcast – Game 49 vs Calgary

May 1, 2021, 13:45 EDTUpdated: May 1, 2021, 13:49 EDT
The Oilers will be looking to bounce back tonight as they battle it out with the Flames for the final time this season. The Oilers came out on top in five of the first nine meetings but the Flames have won the last two games and in each of them, Edmonton did not have their ‘A’ game. So it’s safe to say that Connor McDavid and company will be looking to have a bit of a bounceback performance tonight as they try to move a little bit closer to officially securing a playoff spot. It’s the final Battle of Alberta of the season and hopefully, these two rivals saved the best for last.
Dave Tippett will be trying to spark his group with some new line combinations tonight, which I give my take on today in the Pre Game Podcast (brought to you by YEG Burger and Nation Beer). You can download it right here in the article or by heading to Apple Podcasts or Spotify! Enjoy the game!
