The season is over. The Anaheim Ducks have eliminated the Edmonton Oilers in Game 6, ending another heartbreaking campaign before it ever really began. It's the earliest the Oilers have been sent home since being swept by the Winnipeg Jets in 2021 — and tonight, we're not holding back.

Michael Menzies joins Aaron Bordato on Oilersnation After Dark for a full breakdown of Game 6 and what this gut-punch elimination means for the future of this franchise. The questions are massive: Is Darnell Nurse part of the solution or part of the problem? Who is actually going to be the goalie next season? And perhaps the biggest question of all — does Kris Knoblauch survive the summer behind the bench?

This was supposed to be a CUP YEAR. Instead, the Oilers are watching the second round from home. We break down where this team went wrong, what needs to change, and who might not be in Orange and Blue when training camp rolls around.

🔴 OILERSNATION AFTER DARK — Your home for honest, unfiltered Oilers talk.
