  • Unlistenable

    Hernan Salas is the absolute worst part of the show and the single biggest reason I can’t listen for more than 5 minutes

  • Could be great

    Not quite as good as it was back before EST. Before it was a short, concise show that got right to the point. Now, it’s loaded with lots of random banter and ads, and will it or won’t it have Dusty. Still a solid pod, just lots of fluff between Oilers talk and Dusty only around half the time.

  • Entertaining and informative

    Really enjoy the podcasts - especially when Dusty is on and puts grumpy fans in their place! Both Tom and Dustin are excellent. Please stop YouTube Trev from talking. He makes a good point and then keeps talking and talking and talking. 😱 please stop him.

Oilers Can't Solve Wallstedt | The GCL Diesel Oil Stream Postgame Show | 12-02-25
Q: Were they in terms of defending the slot compared to some other teams you've seen?
They defended well, obviously. They're playing well, goalies playing well. They're doing a lot of really good things.
Oilers Can't Solve Wallstedt | The GCL Diesel Oil Stream Postgame Show | 12-02-25
Q: How did you look at the opportunities you had this evening?
We had some looks, but their goalie played well, they defended hard, just maybe not clean enough to score.
