Let's overreact to the Oilers' pre-season

There's nothing better than a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio to wrap up your week and guide you though the never ending pre-season with an hour of Oilers talk.
We kicked off this week's episode of ONR with a delicious debate about whether or not we should be freaking out anything pre-season related. Even though the results don't matter at this stage of the season, there is a small chunk of Oilers fans who are already concerned about the lack of success. Unexpectedly, talking about the pre-season led the guys to argue whether or not the team is actually better than they were last season.
Changing gears, we walked through some of the biggest news stories coming out of training camp. From roster cuts to Friedman speculating that Evander Kane won't miss the entire season, there was plenty of news to talk about from this past week and the squad offered their takes on all of it. Even without much going on, the boys still found reasons to disagree and argue about what's been happening.
Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of Oilersnation Radio by answering your questions with another round of Ask the Idiots before diving into Hot and Cold Performers to recap everything that's happened over the last seven days. With the pre-season kickoff just around the corner, the boys had plenty to talk about this week for the first time in forever. Needless to say, this week's episode probably had the most hockey talk that we've had in a while, and it feels good to know that the NHL is almost back for another season.

I like Kane, hope he gets back and shuts you guys up. He’s a good tough scorer

Lets gooo

I dont think you guys realize how long this season is going to be. Top 6 isnt going to outscore the mistakes of the bottom 6 and your horrible defense.
Btw, yea its preseason, but holloway single handledly won the game for the blues, and looks like a player worth more than oilers were willing to pay. What a concept.

You know nothing lol. How many points did St.Louis earn for the win? Exactly - ZERO. Here's a history lesson for you look it up (if they even have the stats) a team went through the preseason with only ONE loss - a 3 to 2 decision to their FARM team in their last preseason game - the THIRTEEN preseason game they played. They won their home opener 6 to 2 over the Chicago Blackhawks. The next win they had was at home against the Colorado Rockies (who later became the NJD) 5 to 3 - that was just before CHRISTMAS - in between that etam set an NHL record - going THIRTY games without a single win (7 ties I believe though). That was the 80/81 Wpg Jets. I know because I lived there and our fanbase was all pumped up for the season given the success of the pre-season. So that is precisely what the preseason means - I'll spell it out for you - N O T H I N G.

You guys need to up your game and stop just being homers. Winners win and losers make excuses.
