Friday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to be enjoyed. On today&#8217;s podcast, the fellas discussed <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2025/05/14/edmonton-oilers-advance-to-western-conference-finals-kasperi-kapanen-overtime-winner-vegas-golden-knights/">Edmonton&#8217;s series win over Vegas</a>, what to expect from the Western Conference Final, and much more.
The boys started the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about who everyone would prefer to face in the Western Conference Final if they could wave a magic wand and make it happen. Whether you think Edmonton has a better chance against Winnipeg or Dallas, there are angles you could run with for why the Oilers matchup against either team, but thinking about the next opponent was a fun debate.
Looking back at the week that was, we walked through the Oilers&#8217; performance, including their back-to-back shutouts against the Golden Knights, and how our side was able to strengthen as the series progressed. What stood out throughout the entire series, though, was Edmonton&#8217;s ability to score goals at key moments from depth players at times when it mattered most. A perfect example was how Kasperi Kapanen sat out the first nine games of the playoffs before returning and <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2025/05/16/a-look-at-how-oilers-kasperi-kapanen-went-from-waiver-wire-pickup-to-ot-playoff-hero/">making an immediate impact</a>.
Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week. It&#8217;s incredible how much things can change after those first two losses to L.A., isn&#8217;t it? Especially when you remember that the Oilers were down 2-0 in the series at this same point only a week ago. Life comes at you fast, doesn&#8217;t it?
