Question to Oilers season ticket holders. Would you enjoy the game more if they took the little drum away from the mascot who has no clue when to bang it, no feel for how and when to work or crowd and when to let them joyfully dial it up on their own? (Obviously I'd fire the guy)

Oilersnation Radio Episode 16 – Talbot and RNH Rumours, Andrew Ference and Goodbye Intern

The boys on the Oilersnation podcast are back this week with the 16th version of the pod.
In this week’s episode, Chris unveils the absolute worst way to eat a bowl of Shreddies in the morning and tries to defend his horrible life choice. After recovering from the disaster that is Chris’ cereal routine, the boys dove into a recap of the overtime loss in Winnipeg from Thursday night. Considering the way the game ended, we discuss the goalies and the maddening trend of people trying to trade away Talbot when the reality is that the team could run with a pair of competent goaltenders.
Speaking of trades, Terry Jones tweeted that the Oilers should get rid of Hunter the Mascot so we jumped in to defend his honour.
To finish off the episode, Baggedmilk wants everyone to leave Nuge alone and stop trying to trade him, Chris would like you to know why there are so many Canadians in Australia (you may want to skip this part), Andrew Ference’s review of the Edmonton Oilers in his time here, and we bid a sweet and sorrowful adieu to Evan the Intern.
