It’s Friday afternoon, meaning a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been edited and ready to massage your ear holes. This week, we’re talking about the Oilers’ GM search, the Edmonton heat wave, and whatever random nonsense we could think of to fill the time.
The guys kicked off the podcast with a random collection of topics, including a weather report, English TV recommendations, and whatever else they could think of to kill time since there’s not much going on. Even though the fellas knew they were supposed to talk about the Oilers, it took a while for them to actually get going.
Once they actually started talking about hockey, the conversation turned to who Jeff Jackson will hire as the Oilers’ new general manager over the next few weeks. Will he pick an experienced candidate, as many people suspect, or will he go with a different candidate that no one sees coming? Either way, Jackson said earlier this week that he would like to get someone in place sooner rather than later, so it seems like it won’t be much longer until we get our answer.
Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with some Ask the Idiots questions, Kennedy’s quote game, and another round of Hot and Cold Performers. Despite the fact that nothing is happening in the hockey world right now, the fact that we were able to knock out more than an hour of hockey content is truly remarkable. That’s not to say that we need a parade, but we wouldn’t be opposed to one if someone would like to organize it.
