It’s Tuesday afternoon, and a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is set, edited, and ready to massage your earhole. On today’s episode, we discussed Evan Bouchard’s next contract, McDavid and Draisaitl’s injury timelines, Jeff Skinner, and much more.

We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about a neighbour in Dan’s hood who keeps running his diesel truck for extended periods every day. As you’ll hear, the neighbour is clearly trying to troll his neighbours with his vehicle, which led the guys to offer a range of solutions, from calling the bi-law officer to being much more petty than that. As a bonus delicious debate, Tyler wanted to know how the Jacob Chychrun extension in Washington will impact Evan Bouchard’s upcoming negotiation. Needless to say, it’s going to get expensive.

Changing gears, we looked at the updated injury timelines for Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl and how the Oilers will be without their two stars for (at least) the next three games. Given that the Oilers have some winnable games — Dallas aside — over the next week, it’s not the worst idea to give the team’s two best players a little some extra time to get healthy. The good news, however, is that Ryan Nugent-Hopkins has caught fire over the last week or so, and having the secondary scorers start to warm up certainly helps the decision. The tricky part of the situation is that the secondary scorers need to keep chipping in.

Finally, we wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a discussion about Connor McDavid’s contract extension after a quote from Stan Bowman on Hockey Night in Canada had the fanbase buzzing. We also walked through some NHL and CFL futures in our betting segment for bet365 before wrapping up the podcast with a round of keys to victory ahead of Wednesday’s matchup with the Dallas Stars.
