| 5/4/26 | OIL STREAM: Alarm Bells At Rogers Place! | The 2025-26 season has come to a jarring halt, and the post-mortem has officially begun. Dusty and Tommy are back to break down a franchise-altering weekend in Edmonton following the Oilers' shocking first-round exit at the hands of the Anaheim Ducks. With the players and management now officially on the record, the "vibes" in Oil Country have shifted from disappointment to genuine concern. The Stars Speak Out: Leon Draisaitl didn't hold back, admitting he is "concerned" and that the organization has taken a "big step backwards". We react to his raw honesty and Connor McDavid's labelling of the squad as an "average team with high expectations." Management's Message: While the players sound the alarm, GM Stan Bowman is preaching patience, stating he doesn't envision "massive changes" this summer. We discuss the growing disconnect: Can a team the players call "average" really be fixed with minor tweaks? Coaching Watch: Is Kris Knoblauch officially on the hot seat? After back-to-back Cup Final appearances, the early exit and declining 5-on-5 metrics have many wondering if a change behind the bench is coming. We weigh the pros and cons of moving on from the bench boss. NHL Weekend Recap: The playoffs roll on elsewhere. We recap the Montreal Canadiens' stunning upset over the Lightning and the Minnesota Wild's dispatching of the Stars. Plus, a look at the second-round matchups already underway, including Carolina's early lead over the Flyers. The Road Ahead: With McDavid only having two years remaining on his deal, the clock is ticking. We debate what must happen this offseason to convince the superstars that Edmonton is still the place to win. The Oil Stream is presented by Boston Pizza! | — | ||||||
| 5/1/26 | OIL STREAM: Oilers Eliminated in 6, What Went Wrong? | It is the day after a devastating night for Oil Country. The Edmonton Oilers have officially been eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs after a 5-2 loss to the Anaheim Ducks in Game 6. The dream is over, and the questions are just beginning. Dusty and Reid get together to pick up the pieces and provide a full post-mortem on a series that slipped away... The Post-Mortem: We dive into the big debate—was this a case of the Oilers playing "bad" hockey, or were the Ducks simply that good? We analyze how Anaheim managed to stifle the Oilers' stars and close out the series on home ice. Turning Point: We pinpoint the exact moment in Game 6 where the momentum shifted for good. Was it a specific goal, a coaching decision, or did the gas tank simply hit empty after a gruelling postseason run? Individual Struggles: We don't hold back on who struggled the most when the lights were brightest. We look at the depth scoring, the defensive lapses, and whether the heavy minutes finally caught up to the core. The Long-Term View: Is this early exit a wake-up call that serves the Oilers better in the long run? We discuss whether this "operation" of an offseason needs to be about minor tweaks or a major philosophical shift in how this roster is built. Every Angle Covered: From the officiating to the goaltending duel between Ingram and Dostal, we touch on every facet of the Game 6 fallout. The quest for the Cup is on hold until next year.

| 5/1/26 | Oilers End Their Season To The Ducks In 6 Games | The GCL Diesel Oil Stream Postgame Show | 04-30-26 | The Oilers are elimanted by the Anaheim Ducks in 6 games.

| 4/29/26 | OIL STREAM: Still Alive | Oilers Force Game 6 | The dream is alive in Oil Country! Dusty and Tommy are back on The Oil Stream to break down a season-saving performance at Rogers Place. Facing elimination and a 3-1 series deficit, the Edmonton Oilers delivered their most complete game of the postseason, defeating the Anaheim Ducks 4-1 to force a Game 6. Game 5 Dominance: The Oilers came out flying, scoring three goals in the first ten minutes and chasing Lukas Dostal. We dive into the "big moment" that set the tone and why the team finally looked like the juggernaut we saw in the regular season. The Goalie Pivot: Connor Ingram returned to the crease and slammed the door with a 29-save performance (0.967 SV%). Was going back to Ingram the defining move of the series? We discuss the stability he brought back to the lineup after the Game 4 heartbreak. Stepping Up: With their backs against the wall, the stars arrived. Leon Draisaitl potted two goals, while Evan Bouchard fueled the offence with a massive three-assist night. We discuss why this version of the Oilers is so hard to beat—and the frustrating question: Why can't they play like this every night? Ducks Breakdown: Were the young Ducks finally showing some nerves with a chance to close it out? We look at the shift in momentum and whether Anaheim is starting to feel the pressure of an Oilers comeback. Rallying Point: Is this win the spark the Oilers desperately needed to pull off the improbable 3-1 comeback? We look ahead to Thursday night at the Honda Center.

| 4/27/26 | OIL STREAM: Season on the Line! | It's a tense Monday morning in Edmonton. After a heartbreaking weekend at the Honda Center, the Edmonton Oilers find themselves on the brink of elimination, trailing the Anaheim Ducks 3-1. Dusty and Tommy are back on The Oil Stream to sift through the wreckage and figure out how a team with Stanley Cup aspirations ended up in this hole. The Game 4 Heartbreaker: We break down the 4-3 overtime loss. From the 2-0 lead that evaporated to the controversial Ryan Poehling winner, we discuss the call that has everyone talking. Did the puck actually cross the line? Goaltending Gamble: Kris Knoblauch made the bold move to start Tristan Jarry over Connor Ingram in Game 4. Jarry made 34 saves, but was it the right call to swap netminders in such a pivotal spot? The Health Factor: Connor McDavid finally found the back of the net, but he still looks like he's battling through that Game 2 ankle roll. Are the Oilers just too banged up to keep pace with the Ducks' speed? Ducks Credit: We have to ask—are the Ducks just this good? We look at how Anaheim has rallied from deficits in all four games and why its power play is suddenly the most dangerous unit in the league. The Road Back: Can the Oilers channel their 2024 energy and pull off a 3-game comeback? We look ahead to Game 5 at Rogers Place and what needs to change immediately to keep the season alive. It's all the analysis, all the frustration, and all the hope left in Oil Country. The Oil Stream is presented by Boston Pizza! | — | ||||||
