Last night's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets couldn't have gone worse for the Edmonton Oilers, which meant a sombre tone on the Tuesday episode of Oilersnation Radio. On today's episode, we looked at the Connor McDavid injury, who fills the void, Philp/Caggiula being recalled, and more. The boys started the Tuesday podcast episode with a delicious debate about the Connor McDavid injury and how the Oilers can realistically fill the void for a player that can not be duplicated. Elliotte Friedman tweeted Tuesday afternoon that the team is expected to recall Noah Philp and Drake Caggiula, meaning the Oilers will need to figure out line configurations and how they can best be effective. We then wondered aloud about McDavid's injury and our initial thoughts after seeing him go down. Considering it was an innocuous-looking play, it's unbelievable that he could be injured for any length of time after such a minor collision. Regardless of how McDavid's injury happened, the Oilers will have to navigate a captainless existence in the short term. It's a massive hole to fill, and the question will be whether or not they can get anywhere close to doing it. As we were recording, the news became official that the Oilers recalled Noah Philp and Drake Caggiula, meaning the team is no longer able to accrue cap space while they're on the lineup. Even though that's a temporary issue while McDavid is out of the lineup, the Oilers will have less space at the trade deadline than they initially hoped. 💻 Website: https://oilersnation.com/https://twitter.com/ONradiopodcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom/ https://www.facebook.com/OilersNation/https://www.instagram.com/onradiopodcast/https://www.tiktok.com/@oilersnation SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼Powered by @bet365.
