The Oilers are Buzzin'

About this episode

In this edition of 32 Thoughts, Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman begin by reacting to an electric Game 1 victory by the Edmonton Oilers over the Vegas Golden Knights. They also touch on the Carolina-Washington game (9:25). Afterwards, the hosts delve into the Sam Bennett-Anthony Stolarz elbow incident (15:14) and Game 1 of the Leafs-Panthers series (24:07). The Final Thought focuses on the remaining Round 2 series that has not started yet: Jets vs. Stars (28:15).

In the back half of the podcast, Kyle and Elliotte revisit the 2025 NHL Draft Lottery broadcast (33:14). They discuss how winning the lottery now alters the Islanders' plans for their vacant GM position (37:29). Kyle and Elliotte talk about the Buffalo Sabres adding to their mix (40:38) and discuss General Manager Chris MacFarland extending a vote of confidence to Jared Bednar as head coach of Colorado (43:01). They move on to the LA Kings, where Rob Blake will not return (45:51) and wrap up the podcast with Ottawa, as Ryan Bowness and the Senators part ways (51:26).
