There&#8217;s nothing quite like a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio to wrap up your Tuesday and keep you up to date on all things Edmonton Oilers.
We kicked off the Tuesday episode of the podcast with a delicious debate about the team&#8217;s lack of response to Radko Gudas&#8217; dirty headshot on Corey Perry. Given that the team responded relatively lightly to doing nothing after the play, the guys wondered whether or not more should have been done in the moment or afterward. Another angle on the story is how the refs completely lost the plot in Monday&#8217;s game, and their performance so poorly only contributed to the chaos on the ice.
Changing gears, we looked at the last two games the Oilers lost and tried to figure out what went wrong at the end of the road trip. Yes, it&#8217;s a massive problem that McDavid and Draisaitl are not in the lineup, but the struggle to get goals in the net is a problem the team can&#8217;t seem to solve. We also touched on <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2025/04/08/olivier-rodrigue-first-nhl-start-edmonton-oilers-power-play-vasily-podkolzin-leg/">Olivier Rodrigue&#8217;s first NHL start</a> and how it was a big moment for the second-round pick from 2018, even though he didn&#8217;t get the desired result.
The guys also reviewed the latest injury updates for the roster and discussed how it&#8217;s more important for the team to get healthy than to rush people back. According to Jason Gregor, <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2025/04/07/oilers-stuart-skinner-could-return-this-week/">Stuart Skinner may be the first man back</a> after he started practicing with the team and is targeting coming back this week. Without the team practicing on Tuesday, we don&#8217;t know the status of the other injured players, so the boys took their best guesses for who would come back first.
Finally, the boys wrapped up the podcast with a discussion about <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2025/04/06/alex-ovechkin-breaks-wayne-gretzkys-goal-scoring-record/">Alex Ovechkin breaking Wayne Gretzky&#8217;s goal record</a>, and how it was pretty fun to see one of the most untouchable records get broken. We also ran through some betting talk for our friends at bet365 that looked at the Oilers&#8217; Cup futures as well as Leon Draisaitl&#8217;s chances to win the Hart Trophy before wrapping up the pod with keys to victory and a score prediction against the Blues.
