Ask Dubey Episode 31 is here, and there’s a LOT to get into — from historic Oilers defencemen performances to big-picture questions about goaltending, free agents, and life in Edmonton.
Dubey kicks things off by showing love to the Oilers’ blue line after back-to-back hat tricks from defencemen (yes, really), breaking down Evan Bouchard’s Bouch Bombs and Mattias Ekholm’s unreal highlight-reel goals. If the Oilers can get even half of this kind of production from the back end consistently, it could be a massive boost heading toward playoff time.
From there, Dubey answers your questions, including:
• Has Jarry officially earned the Oilers’ starting job?
• Where does Edmonton’s goaltending duo rank across the NHL?
• How valuable is having a true goalie tandem in an Olympic, condensed schedule year?
• Has Edmonton become a more desirable destination for free agents?
• How different is the city now compared to Dubey’s playing days?
We also get some great storytelling as Dubey shares his most memorable moments as an Oiler, including his NHL debut in Vancouver, a wild win in LA that helped earn a one-way contract, and getting the opening-night start against Pittsburgh.
As always, this episode is packed with insight, honesty, and a few laughs along the way.

Best description of starting your first NHL game 😊
Love the description of your first appearance as an Oiler in Vancouver. I was at that game and when you went in all the Canucks fans were wondering who the heck you were. You played reasonably well but tough situation for sure.
Oilers goalies are pure garbage 🗑 😂
I’d like to see Oilers get a couple big aggressive punishing defensemen to protect our goalies!
