an the Edmonton Oilers finally finish the job, or will goaltending be their downfall again?

In this high-stakes episode of No Pucks Given, Stuart is joined by hockey influencer and die-hard Leafs fan Rick Rowley (@rickrowley3) to break down the final stretch before the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

We’re getting into the weeds on the trade that defined the season: Did the Oilers actually win the Tristan Jarry for Stuart Skinner swap? With Connor Ingram now in the mix, we debate if Edmonton finally has the "postseason ice" needed to bring the Cup home. Plus, Rick gives us a raw, unfiltered look at the Toronto Maple Leafs' horrendous season—is it time to tear it all down and rebuild?

Inside the Episode:

• The Goalie Gauntlet: Ingram vs. Jarry—who starts Game 1?

• Trade Retrospective: Re-grading the Skinner/Jarry blockbuster.

• Leafs Post-Mortem: Rick Rowley on why Toronto failed and what’s next.

• Finals Prediction: With the Florida Panthers out, who represents the East?

The trade deadline is here, and the Edmonton Oilers are making moves! In this episode of the No Pucks Given Podcast, we are joined by the one and only Nick Basra (@nicktoksOilers) to break down a massive week for the Copper & Blue.

General Manager Stan Bowman has officially gone "All-In," shipping out Andrew Mangiapane to bring in a trio of reinforcements from the Chicago Blackhawks. But the question remains: Is this enough to secure the Cup?

On the Docket:

• The Blackhawks Connection: We break down the acquisitions of Jason Dickinson, Colton Dach, and veteran defenseman Connor Murphy. How do these "fit over flash" moves change the Oilers' defensive structure?

• • The Stan Bowman Assessment: Did the GM do enough to address the team's needs, or did he leave the goaltending and depth scoring too thin for a deep run?
  • Grit & Glory (2006 vs. 2026): We take a trip down memory lane to the legendary 2006 playoff run. Does this current roster have that same "Cinderella Story" grit? We compare the blue-collar mentality of '06 to the superstar-heavy pressure of the McDavid era.
• • Road to the Cup: Our honest predictions on if this is finally the year the Stanley Cup returns to Edmonton.

  
  

  It’s a heated, informational, and high-energy session that every Oilers fan needs to hear before the playoffs kick off.

  Listen, share, and let us know: Did Bowman win the trade deadline?
