The Edmonton Oilers season began on Wednesday and it’s safe to say it went terribly. After losing 6-0 to the Winnipeg Jets, the Oilersnation Radio gang (Tyler, Liam, Rick and Dan) took a look back at what went wrong for the Copper and Blue in that home opener. That then bled into today’s delicious debate: What concerned you the most about that opening loss?
From there, they chatted a little about the news that Raphael Lavoie was claimed by the Vegas Golden Knights. The Lavoie saga has gone on all week with the former second round pick going on waivers three times. The guys expressed their disappointment that yet another prospect goes at the door without much value coming back.
It was time for Ask The Idiots which is a segment you can take part in by sending us your questions on X. They started with a couple of Oilers questions by then pivoted to more Thanksgiving themed submissions. Finally, it was time for Hot and Cold performers before the boys headed into the long weekend.
