July 3, 2026



Stan Bowman continues to reshape the Edmonton Oilers, and Tyler Yaremchuk and Liam Horrobin break down every major move from an unforgettable start to NHL free agency on today’s episode of Oilersnation Everyday.

The boys continue analyzing Edmonton’s busy offseason, including the blockbuster Darnell Nurse trade, the additions of Frederik Andersen, Ryan Shea, and Devon Levi, plus the return of Kasperi Kapanen. Which move will have the biggest impact? Did Stan Bowman make the Oilers better? Tyler and Liam hand out their grades, discuss the biggest surprises, and examine how Edmonton stacks up against the rest of the Western Conference heading into next season.

Later in the show, Ryder from The Sauce joins the program to share his thoughts on the Oilers’ offseason makeover. Was Stan Bowman the biggest winner of NHL free agency? Which signing or trade could have the biggest impact on Edmonton’s Stanley Cup chances? And is there still another major move coming before training camp?

The conversation then shifts around the NHL as free agency continues. Tyler and Liam react to the latest trades and signings, discuss which contenders have improved the most, and look at which teams still have work to do before the 2026–27 season begins.

The show wraps up with the boys’ favourite weekend betting plays courtesy of bet365.

  6. Trade Frederick’s and the draft choice for Claude and you keep some of your money if you have to, and if another name pops up, you got a few money, but don’t go in with with 7 million

  8. I'm a giroux homer and he fills needs, but this team can and should do much better and aim higher. Rakell is out there, and Tippett likely will be out in philly if that insanity of an offer sheet goes though. Philly wont' be able to keep all those guys while brining in 18 million in one player. Owen Tippett is liek 2-3 times as good as giroux for us for not that much more money.

  9. Big Zadorov a slow skater?…LMAO…Guess ya don't remember him skating through Oilers an scoring top shelf…lol….And since we are calling out players to removed when ya'll gonna start calling for slow bootz , weak, disappears in play offs , Ryan 4skin….thats another 5 mill in bank..go from 7 to 12 mill easily…Then I will praise Bowman..

  10. Kirill Marchenko : Big guy, right hand shot, 4 years in NHL with Columbus , last 2 season's 27+ goals and been a +20 goal scorer every season , 3.8 mil contract 1 year left and has said he does not want to return when his contract expires? top 6 Forward that everyone says we need ?

  12. The guy we want to spend our money on is Bryan Rust. Two years left at 5.1M per. Good for 30 goals, likely more in the Oilers top 6. Does Ike Howard get it done?
