Bowman Speaks, Oilers In Trade Talks | EST Afternoons | 03-02-26

Описание: The Oilers went 1-2-0 on their California road trip with one game left before the NHL Trade Deadline. What set them back in those two games out West? Was it goaltending, defence, or lack of depth? Maybe all of the above? Plus, what should we expect to see around the NHL as we creep toward the March 6th deadline?

Matt Iwanyk, filling in for Hernan Salas and Joaquin Gage for one final day, is joined by producer Zachary 'Koob' Kubusch to gloss over the Oilers' weekend, delving into the other notable changes, updates and notes around the league. Oilers GM Stan Bowman did speak today, with the boys playing his presser on the show. They also share their thoughts on Andrew Mangiapane and Alec Regula clearing waivers.

During the program, tons of news broke surrounding the Oilers being in talks with the Blackhawks for defenceman Connor Murphy. Is that a good move? What other information do we know? Matty updates you throughout the show.

To LA, Matty catches up with John Hoven from Mayor's Manor to dive into the Kings' firing of Jim Hiller. How does this affect the team? What forced the Kings' hand to fire Hiller? Will they try to make a move before the deadline?

Meanwhile, Bruce Arthur was overseas covering the Olympics for the Toronto Star. He illustrates his experience at the Winter Games while highlighting key Canadian performances as he joins us on today's program!
