It’s a special May Long Weekend edition of Oilersnation Everyday! While it’s a shorter episode, there’s still a ton to get into after a wild weekend of Stanley Cup Playoffs action.
The Western Conference Final is officially set, as the Dallas Stars eliminated the Winnipeg Jets in six games to book a rematch with the Edmonton Oilers. We’ll dive into the key takeaways from that series, look at how both teams are currently constructed, and assess how the Oilers stack up against a deep, structured Stars squad. Are the Oilers better equipped to handle Dallas this year?
Over in the East, Game 7 between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Florida Panthers turned into an absolute blowout. The Panthers steamrolled Toronto with a 6-1 win, ending another disappointing playoff run for the Leafs and advancing to their third straight Conference Final. We’ll talk about what went so wrong for Toronto and just how scary this Panthers team looks heading into the next round.
No guests today, just a good ol’ fashioned holiday show with playoff takes, analysis, and some fun ahead of the Oilers’ next big test.

People still calling us the underdogs is great 😊
Go Oil !!!
I packed my gym bag and got all the way there before i realized its a holiday😢😢 so now i watch the nation
I might stop cheering for the oilers if they brought in marner. Id rather bring back a 41 year old perry for double his current contract.
Marner would be amazing for the Oilers
Agreed with Liam 110% that the Stars are over rated.
Oilers: lets not talk to Holloway
Also Oilers: dam we could bring Marner and royally fuck our cap. Let’s do that
Calling any team in the final 4 overrated is asinine. Thats like saying the oilers are frauds because they have no depth. Homerism is everywhere but come on man.
Liam… you have amnesia bro? Yesterday you mention Oil sweep Stars in 4 later say maybe 5. Now it’s 5 or 6? What will it be tomorrow, Oil in 6 or 7. Playoff stats to date don’t mean much. Stars play the best 2 teams in the West and Oil barely beat LA. We’ve got a sketchy streaky goalie and that’s the position that matters most. If skinner gets skinned or the Stars expose Nurse or a weak PK performance or even hit a recovering Eklund then we might have problems. Not having home ice advantage might be a factor too where DeBoer can double shift his stud against Nurse or our weakest D.
Here’s my analysis:
Goalie Advantage: huge Stars (your words not mine)
Defense advantage: Stars
Scoring/ Offense advantage: Oil
Special Teams: Stars
(both PP&PK)
Home Ice Advantage: Stars
Coaching Advantage: Even
(Except for Gm 7s, then Stars)
Key man injuries: Oil
X Factors: Oil goalie & ST
Despite all this, I think Oil win in 7 and give DeBoer his first game 7 loss.
Youtubes new ad policy has made watching this almost impossible. Missing 15-45 seconds of live content every 10-15 minutes is annoying. At least you guys run this on instagram too, might start watching there. FUck youtube.
CUUUUUUUP YEAR!!!!!!!
Why would any sane hockey fan like Craig Simpson and Chris Cuthbert they are brutal I'd take Jack and Louie in a heartbeat even tho they do have their moments
Noooo to Marner, lol! He needs a whole different kind of boot camp to strip away his nine years of coddling and lack of accountability. He should be in Florida or Vegas, and Marchand should be in Toronto! Though it’s debatable that Edmonton needs any tinkering, if they could use anyone it would be someone like Bennet. Yet Bennet would be very useful in Toronto too, along with Marchy.
