Oil Rig Radio: Hockey This Fortnight

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler as they come back after a month away (whoops....) and talk about the Oilers recent successes and failures. Is it a coaching problem? Do they miss Kane more than they know? Why isn't the bottom 6 better? What is the solution to the problem? Apparently, only The Shadow knows. 

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler as they delve into the Oilers current situation, discuss the goaltending 'controversy', try to figure out what to do with Jesse Puljujarvi, and decide what they'd do as GM. The second half of the show is a deeper discussion about the Oilers current woes and whether or not they are built well enough to win now, plus a further discussion about sweet Jesse. Also, thanks to the many of you who retweeted our last post, Steven will be crushing many watermelons between his thighs. Once we know the details, we'll pass them on to you. 

Join Steven Darnell (who hasn't actually introduced himself in WEEKS), Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler as they do a deep-ish dive into the Oilers current issues, despite the comeback win against the Rangers. Is Philip Broberg the answer? Maybe Ken Holland will make a trade? Maybe a coaching change is in the works? None of those things are off the table. Also, at about the one hour mark, we delve into the simulation question; we'll leave it to you to decide who thinks it's a simulation and who doesn't. Plus, Avry makes a joke about Herschel Walker that lands really well, somehow.

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler for a look at the Oilers first 13 games, a discussion about goaltending, how to make the defence better, what (if anything) to to do about coaching, a look at some non-Oilers stuff and a bit of a deep dive into the latest nonsense with the Bruins. Also, one of them exposes themselves as a "9 inch person", so that's fun. 

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler as they dissect the Oilers first 5 games, talk about some surprises (and disappointments) from around the league, and are then stunned into silence at Avry's deeply personal question. 

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler for a deep-ish dive into the end of Oilers training camp, some very significant off-ice news in the hockey world, and a rather involved discussion of Nala from the Lion King (it's about exactly what you think it's about). 

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler as they discuss some big changes around the Oilers Rig (we're The Oil Rig now), as well as a pretty deep dive into some of the Oilers off-season moves. Stick around to the end to hear what laws we'd each enact if we were in charge of a country. 

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler for some free agency chat, and a pretty long discussion about Hockey Canada and its current legal troubles. 

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler for a brief recap of the Stanley Cup Final, an in-depth discussion of the Oilers offseason needs, what might be the last time they talk about Jesse Puljujarvi on this show (if the rumours are to be believed), and see if they can solve the Oilers goaltending conundrum.

Join Steven Darnell, Avry Lewis-McDougall and Megan Fowler as they discuss the Oilers Western Conference Final loss to the Colorado Avalanche, try to figure out what the top offseason priority should be for the club, sing the praises of Cale Makar, talk a little about the NHL Awards and why they matter (even if it feels like they don't), agree on a talent they would all like to have, and decide once and for all which current (and possibly soon-to-be-former) Oilers Steven most closely resembles.
