2023/01/07

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?

2022/11/27

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.
