Oilersnation Radio Episode 1 – A New Beginning

Welcome, welcome, welcome friends to the first ever episode of Oilersnation Radio! It’s a brand new podcast here at the Nation that will be a little bit more Oilers-centered than what you’d hear on the Real Life Podcast but still packaged with the same kind of feel and vibe.

NHL Top-100 Players

Trying not to read player rankings is as difficult as not eating a scrumptious Big Turk sitting in front of me. I love reading rankings of players. I devour a Big Turk when I see it. Of course, I rarely will agree with every aspect of the rankings, nor with those who dislike the deliciousness…

All About Ryan Mantha

For the Edmonton Oilers, Ryan Mantha was a defensive prospect that came with plenty of promise and potential when he was signed as a free agent with the organization in March of 2017. That was, of course, before a devasting eye injury shut him down for the remainder of the 2017-18 season, putting his hockey…

All About Skyler Brind’Amour

To many hockey fans, the last name Brind’Amour looks awfully familiar on the back of a jersey, and for good reason. Skyler Brind’Amour, the son of former Stanley Cup Champion Rod Brind’Amour, was drafted by the Oilers in the sixth round of the 2017 NHL Draft, and recently finished his rookie season with the Chilliwack…

Is this the Plan?

Back in March, Oilers Entertainment Group Executive Officer and Vice-Chairman Bob Nicholson hopped on Hockey Night in Canada to discuss the Oilers’ disappointing season with Sportnet’s David Amber, Cassie Campbell, and Doug MacLean. Nicholson wasn’t happy with the season, and talked about evaluating, high expectations, and patience. Twitter blew up. Oilers fans heard it all…

The Want List – Defensemen/Goalies

Earlier in the week, Connor McDavid made it be known that he wants to score more goals this year so I gave you a list of what the rest of the Oilers forwards should want from the upcoming season. Time to follow up with a look at the back end and the duo between the…
