The Edmonton Oilers are back home after a mediocre eastern Canadian road trip, and their first game back at Rogers Place wasn't much better, which meant there was plenty to talk about on the Friday episode of Oilersnation Radio. This week, we recapped Thursday's loss to the Minnesota Wild, looked at the Oilers' injury issues, and a whole lot more. The guys kicked off the Friday episode of the podcast with a delicious debate about the Oilers' goaltending and how concerned we are about the current situation and tandem. Given that Stuart Skinner was the second best goalie again last night even though the game started with a mind blowing mistake on Marc-Andre Fleury that came only 27 seconds into the first period. Yet, at the same time, is it fair to blame everything on Stuart Skinner given the mistakes that are happening in front of him? Changing gears, we then looked at the injuries that the Oilers are running up against all of a sudden. With Viktor Arvidsson still on the shelf despite being listed as day-to-day for the last week, Zach Hyman getting banged up, and Darnell Nurse still an unknown after the Ryan Reaves hit in Toronto, Edmonton now finds themselves with some pretty key players off the roster for the short term.  We then looked at the rumour mill after a handful of names have been tied to the Oilers over the last couple of weeks and whether any of those players could be realistic trade targets. As much as it's fun to imagine another Ekholm-like trade, is it realistic to expect movement this early in the season when we still don't have clarity on Edmonton's cap situation? 💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/ https://twitter.com/ONradiopodcast https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/  https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/ https://www.instagram.com/onradiopodcast/ https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation  SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.
