There’s nothing better than a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio to wrap up your week and guide you into the pre-season with an hour of Oilers talk mixed with a dose of shenanigans.
We kicked off this week’s podcast with a delicious debate about which prospect we were most excited about based on their pre-season results. Whether it was thinking Magnus Paajarvi would be the Answer to Rob Schremp making magic with his stick to thinking Anton Lander would be a future captain, the squad had all kinds of great answers about players they thought were going to be stars. That said, drinking the Kool-Aid on prospects is part of being a fan.
Moving over to training camp, the Oilers kicked off their on-ice sessions earlier this week and that meant plenty of news came out on and off the ice. Most notably, Evander Kane revealed some of the injuries he’s been dealing with all summer and what the plan is going forward. And with players like Kane banged up and on the shelf, the Oilers added some depth to their training camp roster with a pair of new PTOs in Mike Hoffman and Jasper Weatherby.
Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of Oilersnation Radio by answering your questions with another round of Ask the Idiots before diving into Hot and Cold Performers to recap everything that’s happened over the last seven days. With the pre-season kickoff just around the corner, the boys had plenty to talk about this week for the first time in forever. Needless to say, this week’s episode probably had the most hockey talk that we’ve had in a while, and it feels good to know that the NHL is almost back for another season.
