Oilers vs. Stars preview, and an NHL Round 2 recap

Oilersnation Radio

Tuesday afternoon means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio has been recorded and edited and is set to massage your ear feelings. On the Tuesday edition of the podcast, the guys previewed the Edmonton Oilers vs. Dallas Stars rematch, Mattias Ekholm's nearing a return, Kris Knoblauch's line combination changes, and more.

The guys kicked off the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio with a delicious debate about how the Oilers matchup against the Dallas Stars. While many fans were nervous about the L.A. Kings and Vegas Golden Knights, a significant portion of the fan base is feeling very bullish about Round 3. Even though the Stars are a very strong hockey club, are Oilers fans feeling too confident about getting through to the Stanley Cup Final before a single game has even been played?

Sticking with the Western Conference Final preview, we looked ahead at what's to come in this year's rematch against the Dallas Stars. Starting with Mattias Ekholm returning to practice with the main group, and whether that move signals his return to the lineup. Given that he hasn't played in nearly two months, does it make sense to rush him back a little bit despite the rest of the club playing as well as they are?

Finally, the fellas wrapped up the Tuesday episode of ONR with a run of betting talk for our friends at bet365, keys to victory vs. the Stars, and offered a few reasons why everyone should believe the Oilers can get the job done for a second straight year in the WCF. As you'll hear, the boys feel bullish about the Oilers' chances of getting the job done, but that'll only happen if they can bring the same effort that saw them close out their first two rounds against L.A. and Vegas.
