Soups on Hockey

I had to go back and see what I titled this when I did the podcast on the Zadorov trade. Lindholm goes to Vancouver, what I think of it for the Flames, and the Canucks, and what else both teams could/should do by March 8th.

They did not deserve to tie the 16-17 Columbus Blue Jackets for the 2nd longest streak in NHL history with today's 4-1 win vs the Nashville Predators. But the Oilers have tied the 16-17 Columbus Blue Jackets for the 2nd longest streak in NHL history. Next up: Vegas on February 6th, with the 92-93 Penguins in their sights.

NEW SHOW ALERT!!! Not sure if it's that big of a deal, and they all basically sound the exact same, but General Manager Tyler Campbell goes to work for the Edmonton Oilers and looks at a potential trade deadline which would see the Oilers land Elias Lindholm plus others to potentially put the Oilers over the top. Why does he fit? Would Calgary trade with Edmonton? What would it cost? What other moves would be possible? I discuss it all in this groundbreaking concept of an idea of a show (again, it's the same as all my other shows, just a new title).

LOL I still call them the "Best Bets". There is nothing good and or funny about this at this point. I hate this show, I'm just doing it now because I follow the 1988 Cincinnati Bengals motto of "finish everything". So I'm finishing my dignity by continuing to record this show each week.

Another uninspired performance by the Oilers aside from their goaltender as Calvin Pickard shines and the Oilers up their winning streak to 15 with a 3-0 win over the "pesky" Blackhawks.

Look, I'll just be honest...I couldn't think of a good title for this one. But today I'm laying out my 25 changes that I would make to the league (truly, in no particular order). Some of these are VERY obvious and simply common sense. Others will be debatable. A few might even be ridiculous in the eyes of some! But give it a listen and let me know what you think! (I don't mean that, please don't blow up my phone and/or X about this)

On this edition of the Soups on Hockey Big Show, I discuss the issues going on with the Toronto Maple Leafs, Lindy Ruff, the Jack Adams candidates at the halfway point of the season, the shit show happening with the AJHL, and as always some Edmonton Oilers talk to close it out.

It wasn't a very well kept secret over the last week or so, but it has now been widely reported that Corey Perry is signing with the Edmonton Oilers within the next 24 hours. My thoughts on that, plus what else the Oilers need to do ahead of the trade deadline to solidify themselves as Stanley Cup favourites.

The Oilers have now won 8 of 9 in the BOA going back to game 2 of their series in the 2022 playoffs.
