Locked On Oilers - Daily Podcast On The Edmonton Oilers

DO OR DIE: How the Oilers SAVED Their Season in Game 5

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 08:13:01 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers refuse to go home! In a "Stayin' Alive Wednesday" edition of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis breaks down a gutsy 4-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks to force Game 6.

The day started with a massive scare as Connor McDavid was a game-time decision after missing morning skate. Despite the injury concerns, the captain suited up, and the Oilers responded with a clinical first period that saw three goals in under 12 minutes.

Nick dives into the mechanics of the early onslaught, featuring goals from Vasily Podkolzin, Zach Hyman, and Leon Draisaitl. We also discuss Evan Bouchard's defensive activism, Connor Ingram's steady presence in net, and why the "hungry dog" mentality is the only way Edmonton survives Game 6 on the road.

Oilers SEASON ON THE LINE! Can McDavid & Draisaitl Force Game 6? | Oilers vs Ducks G5 Preview

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers have their backs against the wall heading into Game 5 against the Anaheim Ducks. Down 3-1, the season and perhaps the current window of contention is on the line. Can Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Zach Hyman find a way to drag this series back to Edmonton for a Game 6? On today’s Locked On Oilers, Nick Zararis breaks down the "survival mode" mentality required to stay alive.

We look at the dominant play of the Leon Draisaitl, Kasperi Kapanen, and Vasily Podkolzin line (outscoring opponents 5-0!) and why the rest of the roster must step up. Plus, a deep dive into the Ducks' forecheck, Jackson LaCombe’s impact on a hobbled McDavid, and how Kris Knoblauch can fix a 50% penalty kill.

Topics Covered:

The philosophy of "Survival Hockey" vs. "Desperate Hockey."

Connor McDavid’s ankle injury and the Jackson LaCombe matchup.

Why the Draisaitl-Kapanen-Podkolzin line is the Oilers' only hope right now.

Breaking the Ducks' hyper-aggressive forecheck and fixing clean breakouts.

3-1 Deficit: Why the Oilers’ "Abominable" Penalty Kill is Killing the Season

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 27 Apr 2026 06:07:49 +0000

Down 3-1 in the series after a soul-crushing overtime loss to the Anaheim Ducks, the Oilers have a lot of soul-searching to do. Was the Ryan Poehling goal actually a goal? Did the officials blow the whistle too late? Nick Zararis breaks down the officiating controversy while acknowledging the hard truth: the Oilers are getting exactly what they deserve.

In this episode, we explore:

The Officiating "Subjectivity": Why you can't leave the game in the hands of fallible humans

The PK Abomination: How a 30% penalty kill is sinking a Stanley Cup contender

The McDavid Factor: Is #97 healthy enough to carry the "horses" the Oilers don't have?

The "President's Men" Moment: Why the Oilers currently lack the "bulletproof" details needed to win

How the Oilers Survive a McDavid Slump: Draisaitl’s Dominance & Game 3 Keys

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 24 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers head into a crucial Game 3 in Southern California with the series tied 1-1. The biggest shock of the postseason so far? Connor McDavid has zero points through two games. With a looming lower-body injury and a power play that is "taking on water," can the Oilers reclaim control of this series?.

Host Nick Zararis dives into why the Anaheim Ducks have successfully corralled the best player in the world. We break down the "nuts and bolts" of McDavid's performance, the impact of his ankle injury, and why the Oilers might need to embrace a "hard hat" dump-and-chase style to wear down Ducks defender Jackson LaCombe

Connor McDavid INJURY Scare & Oilers Game 2 Meltdown vs Ducks | What Happened?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 23 Apr 2026 06:48:17 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers drop a frustrating Game 2 to the Anaheim Ducks 6-4, but the real story is the Connor McDavid injury scare. After a collision with Mattias Ekholm, McDavid headed down the tunnel, leaving Oilers fans holding their breath. While he returned to the ice, the captain remains pointless in the series, and the Oilers' special teams are "taking on water"

Host Nick Zararis breaks down the tactical failures in the net-front battle and why the Oilers' defense is struggling to clear the porch against a physical Ducks cycle. We look at the "Freaky Friday" situation where the even-strength scoring is up, but the league's best power play has gone 0-for-6 through two games. Plus, a mental reset for Game 3 as the series shifts to Southern California

In today’s episode, Nick Zararis breaks down the "Game within the Game" after re-watching the Oilers' 4-3 win over the Anaheim Ducks.

On Today’s Show:

Draisaitl’s "Gravity": A deep dive into how Leon manipulated Jackson LaCombe and Leo Carlsson to set up the game-winner

Oilers vs Ducks Game 1 Recap: Edmonton Wins WITHOUT McDavid Points!

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers take a 1-0 series lead over the Anaheim Ducks, but they did it in the most unexpected way possible.

In today's episode, Nick Zararis breaks down a wild 4-3 Victory Tuesday. For the first time all year, the Oilers won a game without a point from Connor McDavid. While the stars were quiet on the scoresheet, the depth arrived in a big way: Jason Dickinson and Kasperi Kapanen both potted a pair, with Kapanen netting the dramatic game-winner.

Nick also "picks some nits" regarding the defensive lapses in the second period, Darnell Nurse’s "egregious" penalty, and why Kris Knoblauch needs to stop leaning on his "emotional support" lines when the chips are down. Plus, a look ahead to Game 2: Why targeting Jacob Trouba and Radko Gudas is the key to a 2-0 lead

Leon Draisaitl IN Or OUT? Oilers vs. Ducks Round 1 Preview | Matt Savoy’s Time?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers and Anaheim Ducks meet in the playoffs for the first time since 2017! Is Edmonton ready for the youth movement in SoCal, or will the Power Play carry them through?

On today's special crossover edition of Locked On Oilers, Nick Sarras is joined by Kyle Kjer of Locked On Ducks to break down every angle of this Round 1 matchup. The biggest question mark heading into Game 1: Leon Draisaitl’s health. Nick and Kyle discuss the gamesmanship at play and whether the Oilers can survive without #29 down the middle.

We also dive deep into the "X-Factors" for both sides. For Edmonton, all eyes are on Matt Savoie and his incredible late-season surge. Can he provide the secondary scoring needed to support Connor McDavid? On the Ducks' side, we look at the arrival of Cutter Gauthier and Leo Carlson, and why their "nothing to lose" attitude makes them a threat

We dive into the incredible performance of Matt Savoie, whose rookie hat trick has silenced doubters and provided a massive boost in the absence of Leon Draisaitl.

Edmonton Oilers Playoff Scenarios: Who Will They Play In Round 1?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 16 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers have one game left, but their first-round opponent is still a mystery. On today’s Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis breaks down the four potential paths for Edmonton as they look to secure the Pacific Division and a favorable start to the postseason.

We dive deep into the LA Kings, a defense-first team that seems to be limping across the finish line despite a dangerous top line featuring Artemi Panarin and Anze Kopitar.

Then, we pivot to the Anaheim Ducks—a volatile, young squad that takes a massive amount of penalties, offering a golden opportunity for the Oilers' league-leading power play.

Finally, we discuss the "worst-case scenario"—falling into a wildcard spot and facing the Colorado Avalanche and why the health of Leon Draisaitl and Zach Hyman remains the biggest X-factor for this roster

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers are trending toward a first-round matchup with the Anaheim Ducks, but are they ready for the grind?

On today's edition of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis dives deep into the emergence of Connor Ingram. With a .926 save percentage over his last five starts, Ingram is proving he might be the goaltender capable of stealing a crucial postseason game that Stuart Skinner or Calvin Pickard couldn't

We also break down the history of NHL playoff seeding. Does home-ice advantage actually guarantee a series win, or is the "path" more important than the seed?. Finally, we look at the "MASH unit" injury report, including the latest on Leon Draisaitl, Zach Hyman, and the loss of Mattias Janmark for the season

Oilers Clinch Playoffs! Regular Season Recap & 4 Breakout Stars for the Cup Run

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 13 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers are officially heading back to the Stanley Cup Playoffs! After falling just short against Florida last year, the Oilers are looking to change the ending and bring the Cup back to Edmonton

In today’s episode, host Nick Zararis dives into the "long, winding road" of the 82-game regular season and why the physical toll is higher than ever. We break down the coaching rumors that swirled around Kris Knoblauch and Bruce Cassidy, the goalie room overhaul, and how injuries to stars like Leon Draisaitl and Zach Hyman have shaped this roster

Plus, Nick highlights four individual players who have stepped up as the team's unsung heroes:

Vasily Podkolzin: The 19-goal breakout star who is playing like a first-liner.

Matt Savoie: The former 9th overall pick who is finally "cooking" in the NHL

Jack Roslovic: The "mercenary" goal-scorer who has stabilized the middle six

Connor Ingram: The new starter who has kept the Oilers' postseason hopes afloat

Matthew Savoie’s Surge & Oilers Fourth Line Trends: Edmonton’s Playoff Depth Analysis

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers are playing some of their best hockey of the year as the playoffs approach, even without Leon Draisaitl. In today’s episode, host Nick Zararis dives into the underlying trends making this team a Stanley Cup contender, specifically focusing on the emergence of the "depth" pieces

The "New" Fourth Line: Why the Max Jones and Colton Doc pairing is providing the controlling numbers the Oilers need to survive the postseason

Matthew Savoie’s Ascent: Since the Olympic break and Draisaitl’s injury, Savoie’s ice time has jumped by over three minutes, and his production is skyrocketing. We break down why his chemistry with McDavid is a game-changer

Defensive Reliability: A tale of two sets. While Ekholm and Bouchard are dominant, we look at why the Murphy-Nurse and Walman-Emberson pairs need to tighten up before April 19th

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 9 Apr 2026 05:56:26 +0000

Connor McDavid just went "Sicko Mode". With a hat trick and a 5-point night, McDavid has single-handedly dragged the Edmonton Oilers into 1st place in the Pacific Division. But with mounting injuries to Connor Ingram and Jason Dickinson, can the Oilers hold the lead?

Host Nick Zararis breaks down the Oilers' dominant 5-2 victory over Macklin Celebrini and the San Jose Sharks. We dive deep into the "battlefield medicine" of the Oilers' power play, which went a perfect 3-for-3 without Leon Draisaitl or Zach Hyman. Plus, we make the definitive case for why McDavid deserves the Hart Trophy, even if voter fatigue is real.

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 8 Apr 2026 05:54:11 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers blew five different leads in a frustrating 6-5 overtime loss to the Utah Mammoth. Is Evan Bouchard’s defensive play a concern heading into the NHL playoffs?

On today’s Wednesday edition of Locked On Oilers, Nick Zararis breaks down a wild back-and-forth game where Edmonton scored 5 goals but couldn't secure the win. We dive into Matthew Savoie's impressive performance, Evan Bouchard’s costly turnovers, and Tristan Jarry’s underwhelming night in the crease.

Plus, a deep dive into the "Paul Coffey Effect" on the Oilers' defense. Are the underlying numbers actually improving, or is it just a "new coach bump"? We also discuss the alarming trend with Jake Walman’s health and performance as his massive 7-year extension looms. Finally, we check the Pacific Division standings as the Oilers, Ducks, and Golden Knights battle for playoff positioning

Can the Edmonton Oilers Win the Stanley Cup? | The 2026 Playoff Elevator Pitch

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 6 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Can the Edmonton Oilers actually win the Stanley Cup in 2026? With the NHL playoffs starting on April 19th, host Nick Zararis delivers the ultimate "elevator pitch" for why this version of the Oilers is a legitimate contender. Despite a roster that looks "worse on paper" than previous years, a fundamental shift in coaching and style might be exactly what Edmonton needs to get over the hump. In today’s episode, we break down the 6-3-0 run without Leon Draisaitl and why the team's defensive improvements under Kris Knoblauch provide a "proof of concept" for the postseason. We also look at Connor McDavid’s Hart-caliber season and why Evan Bouchard belongs in the Norris conversation.

Why Jack Roslovic is a STEAL for the Oilers | Is Adam Henrique Finished?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 3 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Jack Roslovic has 20 goals in 62 games and is proving to be the ultimate "prove-it" deal for Edmonton. But as one star rises, is it the end of the road for veteran Adam Henrique?

On today’s episode of Locked On Oilers, Nick Zararis breaks down why the Edmonton Oilers must continue to lean into "prove-it" deals like the one that brought Jack Roslovic to town. Roslovic is currently an 80th-percentile goal scorer while costing only $1.5M against the cap.

However, the news isn't all positive. We dissect the decline of Adam Henrique, who hasn't scored a goal since November and is struggling with an alarming -13 even-strength goal differential. We also look at the "Oilers Math" ahead of the playoffs why the top six MUST win their minutes authoritatively if this team wants to make a deep run.

The Oilers FINALLY Have A Starting Goalie: The Connor Ingram Story

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 2 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers have officially found their man in the crease. On today’s episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis breaks down why Connor Ingram has officially won the starter's net heading into the 2026 NHL Playoffs.

We explore Ingram's incredible resilience, from his 2016 draft day in Tampa to overcoming personal adversity and professional hurdles to lead the Oilers' playoff charge. Then, we shift focus to Zach Hyman’s "sublime" season. Despite a broken wrist and missing 26 games, Hyman is currently scoring at a 45-goal pace we look at the underlying numbers that make him an indispensable piece of this roster.

Finally, we analyze the impact of Connor Murphy on the blue line. While the underlying stats are quiet, the Oilers' penalty kill has surged since his arrival, going 28 for 34 over the last month.

Are the Oilers BETTER Without Leon Draisaitl? | Ewing Theory Explained

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 1 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers just delivered a "clinical" 3-0 victory over the Seattle Kraken, proving they have the depth to compete even with just seven regular-season games remaining. On today’s Victory Wednesday edition of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis breaks down how the Oilers are pushing for first place in the Pacific Division by finding their "secret sauce" at exactly the right time.

The Clinical Win: Why the 3-0 win over Seattle felt like the Oilers finally found their identity and "bread and butter"

Connor Ingram’s Masterclass: On his 29th birthday, Ingram picked up his 9th career NHL shutout and has officially usurped the pecking order in net

Depth Scoring Explosion: Max Jones (in his 300th career game!) and Kasperi Kapanen provided the even-strength spark the team desperately needed

The Ewing Theory: We dive into the underlying numbers to see if the Oilers are actually playing better defensive hockey in the absence of Leon Draisaitl

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 31 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers are in the home stretch with only eight games remaining, and the Pacific Division race is heating up. Host Nick Zararis breaks down why Connor McDavid remains the best player in the world, even as he rotates through three different forward lines to find the perfect playoff chemistry

We dive deep into the analytics of McDavid’s most common pairings, from the reliable Nugent-Hopkins/Hyman duo to the high-upside look with youngsters Matt Savoy and Vasily Podkolzin. Plus, we explore the "unconventional" rise of defenseman Ty Emberson and why his bargain contract is a massive win for the Oilers' depth.

Finally, we look at the chaos in the Pacific Division. With the Vegas Golden Knights firing Bruce Cassidy and hiring John Tortorella, can the "New Coach Bump" threaten Edmonton's playoff positioning?

Welcome to Locked on Oilers with your host Nick Zararis! The Edmonton Oilers are finding silver linings through injuries, and massive coaching shifts in the Pacific Division are shaking up the league!

Vegas Shockwave: The Vegas Golden Knights have fired Bruce Cassidy and brought in John Tortorella! We break down what this means for a potential playoff matchup and if the Oilers should target Cassidy this offseason if they move on from Chris Knoblauch.

Oilers PASS Massive Gut Check! | Epic OT PK & Bouchard's Winner vs Vegas

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 06:08:06 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers just passed a massive gut check with an exhilarating 4-on-3 overtime win against the Vegas Golden Knights!

On this Victory Friday edition of Locked On Oilers, we break down why this high-stakes battle felt exactly like a playoff game. We dive into the nuts and bolts of the game, including how the Oilers navigated Bruce Cassidy's defensive style and how they stepped up as a "wounded duck" without Leon Draisaitl.

In this episode, we cover: The OT Winner: Breaking down the perfectly drawn-up play, starting with Connor McDavid's clean faceoff win that set up Evan Bouchard's game-winning shot.

Heroic Penalty Kill: The unbelievable effort by Darnell Nurse, Connor Murphy, and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to survive a grueling 4-on-3 penalty kill in overtime.

The Forecheck Battle: How Zach Hyman and the Oilers used an extremely aggressive forecheck to force turnovers and tilt the ice.

Playoff Race Math: The Oilers are sitting 5 points back of the Ducks with 9 games remaining. We calculate exactly why winning 5 or 6 of these final games is crucial to locking up a playoff spot.

Oilers Playoff Push: Ekholm's Resurgence & McDavid's Milestone

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Connor McDavid just hit 1,200 career points at only 29 years old. Is he on track to become a top-5 player in NHL history? Plus, we break down Mattias Ekholm's crucial return to form and Joshua Simanski's rookie impact

In this episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis analyzes the Edmonton Oilers' playoff readiness. We dive deep into veteran defenseman Mattias Ekholm's recovery from a serious ankle injury and his incredible underlying numbers alongside Evan Bouchard since the start of the new calendar year

Then, we evaluate Joshua Simanski's transition to North American ice after his stint with Team Germany at the Milan Olympics. We look at his increasing ice time and potential to develop into a solid bottom-six center for the Oilers. Finally, we pay tribute to Connor McDavid hitting the 1,200-point milestone and calculate the exact math of what it will take for him to reach the legendary 2,000-point mark before he retires

McDavid Hits 1,200 Points in Oilers 5-2 Win Over Utah

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 25 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers are back in second place in the Pacific Division following a 5-2 regulation win against the Utah Mammoth! Host Nick Zararis breaks down exactly how the Oilers are finding success through a heavily defensive, "game control" style of play.

In this episode, we cover Connor McDavid reaching incredible career milestones with his 400th goal and 1,200th point. We also analyze the new-look top line featuring McDavid alongside Vasily Podkolzin and Matthew Savoie. Savoie continues to impress, netting a brilliant shorthanded goal in tonight's victory. Finally, we discuss why this "muck it up" strategy is difficult to sustain long-term, but absolutely necessary given the current state of the Oilers' roster and defense

Oilers stretch run reset: Optimizing McDavid's offense and looking to the future

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 24 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers are wasting a season of the Connor McDavid era by clinging to a limited transition offense. With Leon Draisaitl injured, an offseason reset isn't just an option, it is mandatory to save this Stanley Cup window

In this episode, we break down exactly why Edmonton must abandon their high-flying rush offense and commit to a heavy cycle game to protect their goaltending. We analyze the underlying metrics of trade deadline acquisitions Jason Dickinson and Connor Murphy to see if they are actually fixing the blue line. Finally, we debate the inevitable summer retool and whether Stan Bowman and Kris Knoblauch will survive the fallout of failed gambles like Tristan Jarry and Trent Frederic

McDavid's subtle warning and the Truth about Draisaitl's knee injury

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Connor McDavid’s pointed post-game comments about the Tampa Bay Lightning being "perfectly coached" and directing reporters to "ask Knoblauch" highlight a massive structural divide for the Edmonton Oilers. We break down the lack of even-strength offense and why injuries are no longer a valid excuse for poor systems.

Plus, Leon Draisaitl’s trip to a German knee specialist—the same one used by Auston Matthews—suggests a serious MCL issue. With the Oilers sitting at just 77 points and staring down a brutal four-game stretch against division rivals like Vegas, Anaheim, and Seattle , we calculate exactly the math needed to hit the 92-point playoff threshold

Oilers EMBARRASSED By Panthers 4-0 | Are Edmonton's Playoff Hopes Slipping?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 05:03:44 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers suffered an absolute debacle of a 4-0 loss to the Florida Panthers. Host Nick Zararis breaks down why the Panthers continue to be Edmonton's kryptonite and why this specific loss is so deeply concerning.

Despite the Panthers icing a depleted lineup and focusing on draft position, Florida's speedy precision made the Oilers incredibly uncomfortable all night. We discuss the concerning lack of depth, how Connor McDavid and Matt Savoie were the only ones generating offense, and the shocking reality that the Oilers haven't won a single game this year when McDavid doesn't register a point.

With Leon Draisaitl out for the rest of the regular season, the playoff math is getting incredibly tight. The Oilers have 77 points with 13 games remaining. We look at the out-of-town scoreboard to see why Edmonton likely needs 8 more wins to hold off the Vegas Golden Knights, Seattle Kraken, and San Jose Sharks.

Connor McDavid is playing the heaviest minutes of his career while carrying the ultimate burden of expectations. With Leon Draisaitl out, how much more can the best player in the world shoulder?

In this episode, we dive deep into the impossible standards set for McDavid. Then, we break down the absolute anarchy of the Pacific Division playoff race—why the Oilers need to win 8 of their last 13 games just to survive.

Edmonton Oilers SURVIVE San Jose! Max Jones Steps Up & Draisaitl Injury Fallout

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 18 Mar 2026 05:22:07 +0000

In their first game without Leon Draisaitl, who is out for the rest of the regular season, the Oilers' depth stepped up in a major way. Host Nick Zararis breaks down how the fourth line, including a massive goal from Max Jones, helped salt the game away in the third period. We also dive into Connor Ingram's steady goaltending, how the Sharks used their transition speed to push back, and what Kris Knoblauch's lineup adjustments mean for the rest of the year.

In this episode:

The Anatomy of the Win: The Oilers defeated the San Jose Sharks 5-3 to tie for first place in the Pacific Division.

Life Without Leon: The Oilers played their first game without Leon Draisaitl, who will be out for the remainder of the regular season.

Depth Steps Up: Max Jones scored his second goal of the season, while Vasily Podkolzin and Connor Murphy also found the back of the net. Connor Murphy's goal was his first as an Edmonton Oiler.

Goaltending: Connor Ingram stopped 27 of the 30 shots he faced.

Tactical Breakdown: The Sharks utilized their foot speed and transition game, heavily driven by Macklin Celebrini, to challenge Edmonton. The Oilers countered this speed by playing below the goal line and establishing a heavy forecheck

EMERGENCY: Leon Draisaitl OUT for Rest of Regular Season | What's Next for the Oilers?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 17 Mar 2026 20:47:27 +0000

In this episode, we break down the devastating Leon Draisaitl injury news:

•The Oilers announced that star forward Leon Draisaitl will miss the final 14 games of the regular season

•We discuss the relatively innocuous hit by Wiseblatt during Sunday night's game against the Nashville Predators that caused the injury

•Analyzing how Draisaitl's elite transition play and passing have elevated wingers like Vasily Podkolzin and Kasperi Kapanen

•Attempting to "Frankenstein monster" a new lineup together without Draisaitl to maintain offensive pressure

•Explore the impact of moving Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to center, keeping Jason Dickinson on the third line, and leaving Adam Henrique on the fourth line.

McDavid Calls out Player Safety | Who plays with Nurse? Ingram steals starter's net

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 17 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Join host Nick Zararis for an action-packed Tuesday edition of Locked On Oilers! In this episode, we dive into three major topics:

Connor McDavid has thoughts on the Department of Player Safety following the hit by Radko Gudas that ended Auston Matthews' regular season. We discuss why the Department of Player Safety offers the illusion of security and why a five-game suspension isn't enough.

The Edmonton Oilers continue to use a revolving door of defensive partners for Darnell Nurse. We look at the analytics of Nurse playing alongside Jake Wallman, Ty Emerson, and Evan Bouchard to find the best fit.

Connor Ingram was officially named the Oilers' starting goalie over the weekend. Tristan Jarry has been completely usurped in the goaltending pecking order. We break down Ingram's numbers, including his 2.7 goals against average, and question if he can handle the physical workload of the upcoming playoffs

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 16 Mar 2026 04:39:44 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers secured a crucial 3-1 victory over the Nashville Predators, but the win came at a massive cost with the injury of superstar Leon Draisaitl. We break down the immediate impact of Draisaitl leaving the game and analyze how head coach Chris Knoblauch might restructure the top-six, including moving Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to the second-line center spot.

Why Tristan Jarry CANNOT Be the Oilers Playoff Starter | Edmonton Oilers get stomped in Dallas

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 13 Mar 2026 04:10:28 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers just got "boat raced" by the Dallas Stars, and it’s time to have a serious conversation about the goaltending. In this episode of Locked On Oilers, Nick Zararis breaks down why Tristan Jarry’s performance is proving he cannot be the starter when the playoffs begin. Despite coming off big wins against Colorado and Vegas, the Oilers fell flat against a depleted Stars lineup, giving up a goal just 83 seconds into the game. We dive into the "Jekyll and Hyde" nature of this 2025-2026 team and try to solve the identity crisis before the regular season runs out.

Key analysis includes the ripple effects of Jarry’s confidence spiral, Chris Knobloch’s lineup decisions, and the pros and cons of recent wins against Western Conference rivals like Colorado and Vegas. With a pivotal back-to-back against the St. Louis Blues ahead, questions loom—can the Oilers solve their identity crisis, find stability in goal, and rediscover a winning formula before the postseason? Don’t miss this honest look at whether Edmonton can still contend or if more shakeups await.

How Vasily Podkolzin Became The Oilers' Best Value Forward | Why trade looks like a steal

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

In less than two NHL seasons, Vasily Podkolzin has gone from a fourth-liner to an integral top-six forward for the Edmonton Oilers! Host Nick Zararis breaks down exactly how this former 10th overall pick was acquired for just a fourth-round draft pick and why it’s paying off big time.

We dive into the analytics behind Podkolzin's game, exploring his promotion to the second line alongside Leon Draisaitl and how he earned head coach Kris Knoblauch's trust. Discover why his even-strength efficiency is off the charts, how his ice time has increased by four minutes per game, and why his cost of $196,000 per goal makes him one of the best budget contracts in the NHL

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 10 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Edmonton Oilers face a critical crossroads as playoff hopes teeter on expectations versus reality. Can Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl carry an aging supporting cast and shaky goaltending back to Stanley Cup contention, or will weak depth scoring and relentless pressure expose their flaws?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 6 Feb 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Edmonton Oilers weigh a potential Bobby McMahon trade as the playoff push intensifies. Can McMahon’s recent production with the Toronto Maple Leafs actually address Edmonton’s scoring woes, or is he a product of favorable ice time beside Auston Matthews?

EVALUATION: The Edmonton Oilers’ Approach to free agency leaves a lot to be desired

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 3 Feb 2026 05:19:26 +0000

Edmonton Oilers rethink their top six after underwhelming returns from high-profile signings. Are lineup preferences and coaching decisions holding back stars like Jeff Skinner and Victor Arvidson from reaching their potential?

Nick Zararis evaluates roster moves spanning Arvidson’s bounce-back elsewhere, Skinner’s diminishing minutes, and Andrew Mangiapane's fading impact. The show spotlights Oilers’ challenges in maximizing offensive threats, especially with shifting ice time and Kris Knoblauch’s evolving system.

Insights include Kasperi Kapanen’s emergence, Evander Kane and Corey Perry’s fits post-scandal, and whether midseason acquisitions deliver the grit or scoring boost Edmonton needs. Exploring power play dynamics, underused talent, and hard choices in cap management, Nick Zararis questions if supplementary pieces can lift Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl’s supporting cast—and if the Oilers’ approach signals deeper lineup concerns. Will Edmonton’s strategy attract the right free agents, or push fringe contributors out before a vital playoff push?

EVALUATION: Are the Oilers facing a Mattias Ekholm problem? | What the numbers say

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Are the Edmonton Oilers’ struggles truly a reflection of Matthias Ekholm’s game, or is a deeper team issue brewing? Nick Zararis breaks down why the perception of Ekholm’s decline after his knee injury doesn't match the underlying data—and why the Oilers' current woes point to systemic problems rather than individual underperformance.

Key discussion points include the real impact of Ekholm’s skating metrics, Evan Bouchard’s partnership, and the Oilers’ shifting offensive and defensive effectiveness at even strength. Nick Zararis analyzes lagging goal shares, dominant power play contributions, Chris Knobloch’s lineup decisions, and growing concerns about the bottom six forwards. With Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Zach Hyman carrying heavy burdens, can Edmonton find the right balance to fuel a deep run, or will structural issues derail their championship aspirations?

BURN THE TAPE: Penguins thump Oilers 6-2 in Draisaitl's return to the lineup | Even strength woes

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 23 Jan 2026 06:19:50 +0000

Edmonton Oilers crumble against Pittsburgh Penguins in a shocking six-goal defeat. Can the Oilers recover from their defensive breakdown, or is their playoff hope slipping away?

Nick Zararis breaks down the disastrous 6-2 loss, spotlighting the fatal 37-second stretch that doomed the Oilers and exposing key flaws in the Ekholm-Bouchard pairing. Key topics include Edmonton’s overreliance on its league-best power play, concerning lack of five-on-five scoring, and heavy ice time for stars like Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. The episode questions whether the Oilers can address critical transition and roster issues before facing the Washington Capitals, and assesses recent lineup changes, including the Stuart Skinner-Tristan Jarry swap. Brett Kulak’s return also gets a special nod, framing what it truly means for player legacy in Edmonton.

Will a renewed strategy and emotional reset reignite the Oilers, or is their window for success closing fast?

Curtis Lazar's resilience brings stability to the Oilers bottom 6 | Why his play is working

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 22 Jan 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Curtis Lazar’s resurgence offers the Edmonton Oilers a much-needed boost in the bottom six, but is it enough to fix their depth issues? Nick Zararis spotlights Lazar’s impact, exploring how his work rate, versatility, and unexpected efficiency have made him indispensable amid a season of roster experimentation and shifting line combinations. Despite limited ice time and constant lineup changes, Lazar’s underlying numbers reveal how Edmonton’s fourth line carves out dangerous chances—and why that matters as the Oilers search for answers beyond Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Zach Hyman.

Key topics include the Oilers’ ongoing struggle to generate even-strength offense from their depth, the challenges of surviving as a rotation player, and the implications for playoff matchups in a wide-open Pacific Division. Can emerging talents like Matthew Savoie and Ike Howard step up, or will Edmonton need to make moves before the trade deadline?

Key analysis spotlights the Oilers’ struggles with breakout speed, Darnell Nurse’s costly mistake, and why six-on-five setups have lost their punch. The conversation sharpens around the irreplaceable impact of Draisaitl on both the power play and even strength, plus what Edmonton must tweak to regain their offensive edge.

Edmonton Oilers honor franchise legend Ryan Nugent-Hopkins as he reaches the remarkable 1,000 NHL games milestone—becoming the first to do so in team history, surpassing even Wayne Gretzky and Mark Messier. Does Nugent-Hopkins' enduring presence set a new standard for leadership and consistency in Edmonton’s locker room?

Nick Zararis breaks down the significance of a first overall pick carving out a role beyond flashy stardom, examining Nugent-Hopkins’ production, adaptability as both a center and wing, and his crucial presence on the power play. Key topics include the Oilers’ drafting strategy, the impact of institutional players, and how Nugent-Hopkins’ steady contributions complement Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Zach Hyman. Deep playoff aspirations, young talent integration, and the value of versatility take center stage. Can Oilers fans expect Nugent-Hopkins to remain a linchpin as the postseason approaches?

Islanders outlast Oilers in goalie showdown | Why Edmonton couldn't beat Sorokin

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 16 Jan 2026 06:04:01 +0000

Edmonton Oilers suffer a frustrating 1-0 loss as their high-powered offense gets stifled by the New York Islanders’ gritty, defensive approach. Can Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Zach Hyman find their late-game magic again, or are opposing teams finally cracking the code? Nick Zararis dissects the Oilers’ growing game script dependence, highlighting how Ilya Sorokin and the Islanders’ commitment to “parking the bus” neutralized Edmonton’s scoring chances despite a flurry of shots and high-danger attempts.

Key segments focus on the persistent Darnell Nurse conundrum—can Ty Emberson stabilize Edmonton’s volatile blue line?—and examine why the once-unbeatable McDavid-Draisaitl-Hyman line is falling short in must-score situations. Nick Zararis raises crucial questions about the Oilers’ roster construction, defensive pairs, and shrinking margins for error as playoff pressures mount. Can Chris Knoblauch reignite Edmonton’s offense before it’s too late?

DEBATE: Oilers face dilemma over potential Jack Roslovic extension | Will Edmonton roll the dice?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 15 Jan 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Edmonton Oilers fans see Jack Roslovic shine as a surprising offensive spark, but does his recent production warrant a long-term extension? Should the Oilers bet big on his underlying skills, or is Roslovic best suited as a third-line depth piece?

Nick Zararis dissects Roslovic’s career trajectory, from being a first-round pick with the Winnipeg Jets to supporting roles with Columbus Blue Jackets and now Edmonton. The analysis spotlights Roslovic’s elite skating and hard shot, but questions his fit in the Oilers’ top six and concerns about ice time, metrics, and contract value. Comparing Roslovic’s game to Jeff Skinner, Zararis also debates the pitfalls of overcommitting to flash players, the importance of roster flexibility, and why Edmonton should avoid signing Roslovic long-term—despite his hot start.

Will roster equity and player confidence reshape the Oilers’ Stanley Cup hopes, or is caution the smarter play with Roslovic?

Can Jake Walman boost the Edmonton Oilers defense with his return imminent? | What the data says

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 13 Jan 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Jake Walman’s return could redefine the Edmonton Oilers’ blue line—can his offensive skillset spark a playoff surge? Nick Zararis examines Walman’s unique role as an agile, shoot-first defenseman, exploring how his skating and puck-moving abilities contrast with the NHL’s traditional “punisher” archetypes. The episode unpacks Walman’s metrics, his chemistry (and challenges) alongside Darnell Nurse, and the implications of his seven-year extension for Edmonton’s long-term plans.

Key insights include how the Oilers optimize roster structure, the impact of Walman’s limited but promising playoff sample, and whether his style can offset Nurse’s volatility and elevate the second pair. With competition heating up in the Western Conference—and the Oilers’ defensive identity in flux—Nick Zararis weighs realistic performance expectations for Walman and considers how lineup adjustments could push Edmonton deeper into the postseason.

Key topics include Matthew Savoie’s NHL adaptation, third-line challenges, and upcoming matchups against non-playoff teams.

Underwhelmed: Andrew Mangiapane struggles in the middle six | Why it hasn't worked in Edmonton

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 8 Jan 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Edmonton Oilers’ gamble on Andrew Mangiapane falls flat as middle-six scoring woes continue. Can the Oilers salvage value from their $3.6 million free agent, or is this another costly roster misfire?

Nick Zararis scrutinizes Mangiapane's NHL journey—from his overage OHL dominance, to a breakout season on Calgary’s high-powered Backlund-Coleman line, and his abrupt drop-off in foot speed and finishing since joining Edmonton. Key talking points include the anatomy of Mangiapane's 30-goal “career year” with the Flames, the impact of line synergy and quality of competition, and why the Oilers’ current bottom six remains slow and underwhelming despite offseason upgrades. With the lineup struggling to generate balanced offense, the episode raises urgent questions about roster construction and the future role of players like Mangiapane and Trent Frederic.

Oilers struggles in Montreal raise questions about sustainability

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 04:06:02 +0000

Edmonton Oilers stumble in Montreal as missed power play opportunities and defensive miscues prove costly—was it a one-off setback or a sign of deeper issues? Nick Zararis breaks down the Oilers’ 4-1 loss to the Canadiens, analyzing Calvin Pickard’s performance in net, key failed chances on the man-advantage, and the ongoing volatility in goaltending league-wide.

The conversation explores how Edmonton’s lack of rush offense and blue line speed exposed them against Montreal’s fast skaters. Attention then shifts to the Oilers’ bounce-back win versus the Toronto Maple Leafs, where Connor McDavid’s dynamic zone entries and Leon Draisaitl’s vintage performance powered the offense—even with a quiet power play. Nick Zararis highlights concerns about Toronto’s defensive core and bottom six, and examines Edmonton’s roster shake-up, including the Brett Kulak-for-Spencer Stastney swap. Can the Oilers’ pro scouting unlock untapped potential on the blue line for a playoff push?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Thu, 11 Dec 2025 07:00:00 +0000

Edmonton Oilers face mounting pressure as goaltending woes threaten their playoff hopes.

Nick Zararis evaluates the Oilers’ trade deadline shopping list, spotlighting options for a top-six winger and right-handed defenseman. Alex Tuch and Anthony Mantha emerge as intriguing forward candidates, while the return of Jake Walman and depth concerns drive the push for another defenseman.

Edmonton Oilers struggle to find their winning identity as questions mount about their defensive structure and shaky goaltending.

ANALYSIS: What to think of the Edmonton Oilers likely opening night lineup | Top heavy

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Mon, 29 Sep 2025 06:00:00 +0000

The biggest storyline is Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl being reunited on the top line with Trent Frederic. We explore whether Frederic can fill the Zach Hyman role while the veteran forward recovers from injury, and why this combination makes sense from a skill-set perspective. Frederic brings the forechecking and puck retrieval that complements McDavid and Draisaitl's elite playmaking and shooting abilities.

On the second line, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins centers Andrew Mangiapane and Vasily Podkolzin in what could be an effective matchup line. While this limits the Oilers' offensive ceiling somewhat, it provides solid game control and allows Mangiapane to potentially bounce back after a down season in Washington.

The third line features an intriguing mix with David Tomasek getting center ice time between Adam Henrique and Matthew Savoie, showcasing the organization's faith in the Swedish free agent's game. We also discuss the challenges facing prospects like Ike Howard, who may be better served getting top minutes in Bakersfield rather than limited fourth-line duty in Edmonton.

The bottom-six construction reveals Stan Bowman's approach to building depth while managing salary cap constraints and player development timelines.

With Zach Hyman sidelined to start the season, these lineup decisions will be crucial for Edmonton's early-season success. Chris Knoblauch faces the challenge of maximizing his available talent while maintaining the game control philosophy that has made the Oilers successful when McDavid and Draisaitl play separately

All Connor McDavid Teammates Edmonton Oilers Team – Goalie Edition | Cam Talbot & Stuart Skinner

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 20 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0000

The All Connor McDavid Teammates fantasy roster challenge reaches its final chapter—goaltending. In this episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis builds the ultimate Edmonton Oilers goalie tandem from players who have shared the ice with Connor McDavid, while staying under a strict $71.5 million salary cap and using only one rookie contract (already spent on McDavid).

We break down the best netminders of the McDavid era and land on two standouts:

Cam Talbot (2016-17 season) — A workhorse starter with 73 games played, a .919 save percentage, and second-best goals saved above expected in the NHL.

Stuart Skinner (2022-23 season) — A stellar rookie campaign with 29 wins, .913 save percentage, and top-15 goals saved above expected.

From Talbot’s marathon season to Skinner’s poised rookie year, we discuss their fit in this hypothetical roster, why the Edmonton Oilers have struggled to find consistent goaltending for over 15 years, and what it really takes to win a Stanley Cup with “good enough” netminding.

0:00 Intro: Connor McDavid roster building challenge

4:06 Why drafting goalies every year is crucial

8:41 Cam Talbot as starting goalie for Team McDavid

13:46 Talbot's career journey and workload challenges

What if you could build the ultimate Edmonton Oilers roster—but only using players who have played alongside Connor McDavid? In this episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis takes on the All Connor McDavid Teammates lineup challenge, with strict rules:

Every player must have overlapped with Connor McDavid in Edmonton

The roster must fit under the NHL salary cap

Only one player can be on a rookie contract

We reveal the full defense corps for this fantasy Oilers lineup, including Evan Bouchard, Mattias Ekholm, Oscar Klefbom, Adam Larsson, Darnell Nurse, and Tyson Barrie—and break down how each fits into the team’s puck-moving, possession-first strategy. From first-pair dominance to specialized third-pair roles, we dive into why these combinations could thrive in today’s NHL.

We also discuss roster-building philosophy, the importance of pairing puck movers with puck retrievers, and why the Edmonton Oilers’ real-life blue line construction has been such a challenge in the Connor McDavid era.

What if you could build the ultimate Edmonton Oilers lineup—but only from players who have shared the ice with Connor McDavid?

From star wingers to unsung depth pieces, we debate every position, make some tough cuts, and see just how dangerous this fantasy Oilers team could be.

Whether you’re a die-hard Oilers fan or just love a good roster-building puzzle, this one’s loaded with hockey talk, cap-crunch math, and plenty of McDavid-era nostalgia.

How Zach Hyman & Mattias Ekholm Made the Edmonton Oilers Stanley Cup Contenders

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 12 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0000

In this episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis breaks down the two franchise-shifting moves that turned the Edmonton Oilers from a solid playoff team into a legitimate Stanley Cup contender the free-agent signing of Zach Hyman and the trade for Mattias Ekholm.

We analyze how Zach Hyman’s transition from the Toronto Maple Leafs to playing alongside Connor McDavid transformed his game, doubled his shot totals, and gave the Oilers one of the NHL’s most relentless net-front presences. Then, we dive deep into how Mattias Ekholm’s defensive stability unlocked Evan Bouchard’s offensive potential, creating one of the league’s most reliable top defensive pairings.

Plus, we discuss what the Edmonton Oilers can learn from these moves going forward, the importance of surrounding McDavid and Leon Draisaitl with the right complementary players, and why roster fit matters just as much as raw talent when chasing the Stanley Cup.

If I Was GM: How the Edmonton Oilers Could Have Kept Dylan Holloway & Philip Broberg

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 8 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0000

What if YOU were the general manager of the Edmonton Oilers? On today’s episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis takes you through a detailed “what-if” scenario for the summer of 2024 and how the Oilers could have avoided losing Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg.

We break down how poor roster management, offer sheet missteps, and short-term thinking cost Edmonton two young, cost-controlled players. From Ken Holland’s lame-duck final season to Jeff Jackson’s interim stint and Stan Bowman’s arrival, we cover the decisions that shaped the Oilers’ future.

Nick walks through the alternative moves he would have made including passing on Jeff Skinner and Victor Arvidsson, keeping Holloway and Broberg, and restructuring the bottom six plus how these choices could have impacted Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Zach Hyman, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, and the Oilers’ Stanley Cup window.

In this episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis answers 20 burning questions about the Edmonton Oilers, Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and the team’s path forward. Can the Oilers win a Stanley Cup during the McDavid‑Draisaitl era? Who should Edmonton prioritize adding a first‑line winger or a top‑pairing defenseman? And what is Chris Knoblauch’s biggest weakness as a coach?

Nick also dives into key hypotheticals: What if the Oilers had drafted Matthew Tkachuk, Charlie McAvoy, or Jake Guentzel? Could Connor McDavid realistically reach 2,000 career points? And who’s the next Edmonton Oilers player to get their number retired? Plus, we debate the impact of players like Zach Hyman, Matthias Ekholm, Evan Bouchard, Dylan Holloway, and Vasily Podkolzin, and what it will take for this team to stay in contention in the 2025‑26 NHL season.

Redefining Success: What Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers Teach Us About Winning and Life

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 6 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0000

Winning isn’t everything at least not in the way most hockey fans think about it. In this episode of Locked On Oilers, Nick Zararis reflects on what truly defines success for players and teams in today’s NHL. From Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl’s chase for the Stanley Cup to the Edmonton Oilers’ roster development, we examine how progress can exist even without a championship.

We also highlight growth stories for players like Evan Bouchard, Vasily Podkolzin, and Brett Kulak, and compare how organizations like the New York Rangers, Ottawa Senators, and Montreal Canadiens measure success in different stages of their rebuilds. This episode challenges the “championship or failure” narrative and asks a bigger question: What do we really value in hockey?

Do you want to understand hockey like a true analyst? In this episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis takes a deep dive into advanced hockey analytics breaking down the difference between counting stats, descriptive stats, and predictive stats and why understanding these numbers is essential for evaluating NHL players and teams.

Nick uses examples from players like Zach Hyman, Tim Stützle, Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and others to explain how context, efficiency, and style of play shape offensive production. Plus, we compare the offensive approaches of teams like the Carolina Hurricanes, Florida Panthers, Edmonton Oilers, and New Jersey Devils showing how quality vs. quantity influences playoff success. If you want to learn how analytics can make you a smarter fan, this is the episode for you.

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 1 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers are known for having one of the most dangerous power plays in the NHL, led by Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Zach Hyman, Ryan Nugent‑Hopkins, and Evan Bouchard. But in 2024‑25, the Oilers’ power play dropped from top‑five status to 11th in the league. On this episode of Locked On Oilers, host Nick Zararis dives deep into the numbers behind this regression fewer scoring chances, decreased shots on goal, and a notable decline in high‑danger opportunities. Was this simply a case of Zach Hyman’s regression from his career‑best season, or is the problem rooted in strategy and predictability?

We explore the underlying analytics, how opposing defenses like the Florida Panthers neutralized Edmonton’s man advantage in the Stanley Cup Final, and what changes new coaching tactics could bring. From puck‑movement strategies to adjusting zone entries and personnel usage, Nick offers solutions to help the Oilers return to elite status on special teams in 2025‑26.

Why Leon Draisaitl deserves more credit across the NHL | The league's most under appreciated star

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 29 Jul 2025 06:00:00 +0000

For as good as Leon Draisaitl is for the Edmonton Oilers, the center fails to get credit for being as good as he is because he's teammates with Connor McDavid.

Edmonton Oilers win 3-2 over Vegas Golden Knights in gutsiest win of the year

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 2 Apr 2025 05:36:31 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers pulled out a nail biter 3-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night in Sin City. The Oilers picked up goals from Jake Walman, Leon Draisaitl's 53rd and one from Viktor Arvidsson. The Oilers picked up their first win of the regular season against the Golden Knights largely due to the team's resilence and ability to withstand a prolonged Vegas onslaught down the back stretch of the final ten minutes of the game. Once again without Connor McDavid or Mattias Ekholm, it took an all hands on deck effort to come away with the win.

The Edmonton Oilers have a new price point for the looming negotiations with Evan Bouchard this summer after the Washington Capitals agreed to an 8 year, $9 million extension with defenseman Jakob Chychrun on Tuesday. The Oilers need to lock up their third most important player and one of the best defensemen in the entire NHL, while the sticker price might seem stark, the rising salary cap will only make it more palatable going forward.

What the Edmonton Oilers Playoff lineup should look like based on the evidence

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Wed, 26 Mar 2025 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers are almost assuredly locked into a playoff spot but have several decisions to make ahead of the postseason. Chief amongst them is figuring out what permutation of forwards makes the most sense, with too many players for too few of spots, Kris Knoblauch has to find what mix works the best for his idea of what the Oilers can be. Based on recent form, that means Ryan Nugent-Hopkins at center and Jeff Skinner in the top six.

Why Mattias Ekholm is the Edmonton Oilers most important player to the team's playoff success

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 06:00:00 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers emerged as bonafide Stanley Cup contenders over the last four years in part due to Mattias Ekholm's arrival and his positive impact on Evan Bouchard. As a duo, Ekholm and Bouchard were one of the best pairs in the entire NHL last season, this year, the team's results are a little more volatile and Ekholm's dealt with injuries at various points. For the Oilers to achieve their Stanley Cup dreams, the team needs Ekholm to return to form ahead of the NHL playoffs.

The Oilers' best shot comes up painfully short against the Devils | Is the season on the brink?

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 14 Mar 2025 06:07:53 +0000

The Edmonton Oilers best two players, Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, dominated their minutes Thursday night against the New Jersey Devils. Unfortunately for the Oilers, their best effort wasn't enough to make up for a lackluster supporting cast in a 3-2 regulation loss largely due to subpar goaltending and a lack of secondary offense.

The Ken Holland era in Edmonton Comes to an end | The good the bad and the history

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Fri, 28 Jun 2024 12:00:00 +0000

Join host Nick Zararis on this episode of Locked on Oilers for a full retrospective on the Ken Holland era in Edmonton upon the news of Holland leaving the organization. Holland took over a team that had a recent history of struggling, no playoff success and a top heavy roster with minimal depth. While the Oilers ultimately came up one win short of winning the Stanley Cup, Holland's track record rises to the top of a very thin pool of previous GMs this century. Nick recounts the good decisions, like trading for Mattias Ekholm and signing Zach Hyman as a free agent, the bad like trading for Duncan Keith and signing Jack Campbell.

Oilers come up agonizingly short in pursuit of historic comeback | Game 7 reaction and analysis

lockedonpodcasts@gmail.com (Locked On Podcast Network) — Tue, 25 Jun 2024 04:36:14 +0000

Join host Nick Zararis on this episode of Locked on Oilers recapping the Oilers heartbreaking loss to the Florida Panthers in game 7 of the Stanley Cup final. Lament the missed opportunities in an agonizingly close game where a single bounce going the other way could've swung the game in Edmonton's favor. While coming up just short and coming so far to make it happen is brutally unfair, Nick explains why it's important to maintain perspective and not treat this season as a total sunk cost emotionally as an Oilers fan.
