Dan and Shawn are joined by NHL.com (http://NHL.com) 's Edmonton-based writer Derek Van Diest to discuss and dissect the reasons why the Oilers have won 14 games in a row. Van Diest talked about the Oilers renewed commitment to defense and the improved play of goalie Stuart Skinner. He points to the depth scoring the Oilers are getting from forwards Warren Foegele and Ryan McLeod. The impact of coach Kris Knoblauch and his calm demeanor, and what assistant Paul Coffey has brought to the defense, were also topics in the conversation. In addition, Rosen and Roarke spent time talking about Patrick Roy as the new coach of the New York Islanders and why they love the move, and the struggling Los Angeles Kings, who were recently called out by defenseman Drew Doughty. They offered their predictions on who will win the 2024 NHL All-Star Skills and discussed the potential of future NHL hockey in Salt Lake City. They answered some mailbag questions concerning teams like the Nashville Predators and Arizona Coyotes, who have draft capital to spend and cap space to use to improve their chances of making the Stanley Cup Playoffs this season.
