It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Connor McDavid's latest contract quotes, EA sports ratings, , and much more.
We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Connor McDavid's quotes from yesterday, and how the hockey world is making a big deal about his quotes even though No. 97 didn't really say much. And while most people still think he's going to sign an extension with the Oilers, there are still plenty of hopeful Leafs fans who believe he's going to end up in Toronto. That said, the noise will undoubtedly continue until his name ends up on the dotted line.
Changing gears, we looked at the limited Oilers news that's happened over the last week, including the new EA Sports ratings that dropped for the NHL 26 edition of the game that's set to launch in a few weeks. Starting with McDavid being the best-ranked player in the game for the second consecutive year, we examined whether he's properly rated at 97, given how significantly better he generally is than everyone else. We also discussed the other Oilers players and made some predictions about how they'll stack up.
Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week. With just over two months left until the start of the 2025-26 season, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode talking about an array of topics that were Oilers-related or not at all, but that’s what happens in August.
