Is Trent Frederic The New Connor Brown? | Has The Game Changed? | December 11th, 2025 | Hour 1
Description
Reid Wilkins and Jay Milne share the stats and facts from both sides of the ice, discussing Stuart Skinner starting for Edmonton and former Oiler Cam Talbot getting the nod for the Wings. How can goaltenders with a save percentage below .900% find wins like Detroit's netminders have? What is the reason for the heightened goal scoring seen around the league? Has the NHL become a more offensive game?
The guys also note the headlines from practice, including some roster moves made by the Oilers. Reid and Jay then put the spotlight on Trent Frederic, comparing his lacklustre play to former Oiler Connor Brown. Jay brings up Brett Kulak's poor start to the year, asking Reid if he's gone under the radar of scrutiny with other members of the team being talked about more.
Some laughs are shared throughout the hour as they have the Off-Topic Topic for William Huff and The Afternoon Headlines for 100.3 The BEAR! Wilkins and Milne also chat about some times they've needed stitches after Frederic needed 14 of his own following yesterday's practice when he took a puck to the face. We note some fan responses on that topic as well.
