Canada survives in absolute chaos, Olympic pressure is peaking, and the big-save conversation just got louder

On this week’s episode of Ask Dubey: Olympic Edition, former NHL goaltender Devan Dubnyk kicks things off by breaking down Canada’s dramatic overtime win over Czechia. From dominating possession but struggling to extend the lead, to the controversial missed six-men moment, Dubey explains why international hockey can flip in a single shift.

The spotlight quickly turns to the position everyone loves to debate: goaltending.

Dubey gives credit to Jordan Binnington for doing exactly what you need in these tournaments — making the right save at the right time — including a breakaway stop late in the third and a massive overtime save that set up Mitch Marner for the winner.

From there, it’s classic Ask Dubey, answering listener questions on:

• What “battling” really means when a goalie’s team looks chaotic

• Whether you can tell in the first five minutes if your defense doesn’t have it

• If goalies adjust technically when things feel off

• Whether the Edmonton Oilers need a major trade deadline shakeup

• Why a blockbuster move is unlikely — and why secondary scoring matters more

• The pressure and expectations of representing Team Canada internationally

• And how difficult it is for Olympic players (and non-Olympic players) to reset before the NHL stretch run

The episode wraps with Dubey reflecting on the unique mental challenge of playing for Canada — where gold is the expectation and anything less feels like failure — and what it really takes to handle that pressure in net.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed Team Canada going to the gold medal game, Connor McDavid's new record, line combinations, trade targets, and more.

We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Team Canada's two tight wins in the elimination games and whether facing that adversity will help them in the gold medal game. Given that the team has needed consecutive comebacks to beat Czechia and Finland, the boys wondered if grinding through those two games would better prepare them for what's to come on Sunday morning.

Shifting gears, the guys looked at Team Canada's comeback win over Finland after the boys fell 2-0 early in the game, forcing a wild comeback over the final half. Starting with Connor McDavid setting an Olympic record with NHLers in the mix, it's been incredibly to watch No. 97 do his thing at such a high level. Even so, there was still controversy about the late penalty on Nathan MacKinnon that ultimately ended the game for Canada.

Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week that was. With the 2025-26 season well past the midway point, the guys spent the bulk of the podcast moving through a range of topics, some related to the Oilers and others not, but that’s the way things go on the Friday episode of ONR.

It's Tuesday afternoon, and there's a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio set, which means the boys were back in the studio to recap the week that was. On today's episode, the guys discussed Team Canada vs. Team Czechia, Connor McDavid's success at the games, the State of the Nation survey results, and much more.

We kicked off the Tuesday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about the State of the Nation poll and the results from what Nation Citizens are thinking about the team this year. As you'll hear, nearly 80% of Nation Citizens feel there is a problem with the coaching staff, which has led to a discussion about whether the men behind the bench are the problem. As you'll hear, the boys all acknowledge the issues with the coaching staff, but none of them necessarily think a change is coming.

Changing gears, we looked ahead to Team Canada vs. Team Czechia in the quarter-final, and how our boys are heavily favoured against a team they faced just a few days ago. While the road to the semis looks good, the reality is that Canada can't take Czechia lightly despite being a much better team on paper (and on the ice). Sticking with the Winter Games, we did a throwback to Friday's episode of ONR where the boys discussed the Canadian curling controversy and offered an update on what's happened in the days since.

Finally, we wrapped up the episode of ONR with another round of Baggedmilk's Trivia. With none of the other boys coming up with anything new, the guys went back to old faithful with a round of Oilers and Olympics-related Baggedmilk Trivia questions. Think you know your Olympic Winter Games history? This round of trivia was for you. Did the quizmaster have to step in? Did Baggedmilk get his questions right? You'll have to listen to find out for sure.
