Happy Friday, everybody! The playoffs are underway and we’re back with a brand new episode of Oilersnation Radio to get you set for the weekend and make sense of everything that’s happened so far. On this week’s show, we looked back at Wednesday’s loss against the Jets, offered a few ways the boys can rebound in game two, looked around the NHL, and a whole lot more.

Kicking off this week’s episode, we got started with a look at game 2 and what the Oilers need to do to make sure they even up the series before making their way to Winnipeg. Whether it’s making life difficult for Connor Hellebuyck or throwing more hits on the Jets forwards, we had a bunch of different suggestions on what the Oilers could do to get themselves back in the win column. Looking ahead at tonight’s rematch, we spoke a little bit about the good things Edmonton was able to do on Wednesday and what adjustments they’ll have to make to get a better result. One thing that the Oilers will need to do is make sure they’re taking advantage on the powerplay as it seems like there won’t be many calls with the prison rules the refs seem happy to be running with. From there, we discussed Zack Kassian’s quiet return to the lineup and how all of us expected more out of him in game one, especially since so many Oilers fans were disheartened by his disappearance in the play-in round last summer. Needless to say, #44 is on a short leash with the fanbase and it will be up to him to step up in a big way throughout the rest of the series.
