Are the Oilers trying to get the band back together? What about a trade?

Episode 170

Thursday, August 29, 2024 • Duration 01:12:27

Your Wednesday wouldn't be the same without a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never to wrap up the day and help guide you through what's left of the week. On today's podcast, I'm talking about Oilers rumours, PTO targets, betting futures, reality dating shows, and a whole lot more.

I kicked off this week's podcast with yet another conversation about reality dating shows. Not only do I love them, but I finally got through the newest season of Love Island USA, and I could not be happier about it finally coming to a close. Frankly, the seasons of that show are way too long, and it was standing in the way of watching a much better trash fire in Too Hot to Handle.

Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, it seems like the news du jour after the Holloway/Broberg offer sheets is what the Oilers can do with their newfound cap flexibility. According to Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli, the Oilers are looking around the league for defensive upgrades, including the idea of bringing back a couple of old friends for another tour of duty. Yet, given the current depth chart, all of the options the Oilers seem to be looking at are RHD, which has plenty of us wondering if that's the right approach.

Lastly, I wrapped up this week's show with some betting talk and an RSB about moving companies before working through another round of voicemails that were all over the map. The good news is that today's voicemails were a mixed bag of topics, which is always fun from my side of the microphone, and you fantastic folks did not disappoint. Oh, and subscribe to my YouTube channel.

Holloway and Broberg are Blues, and the Oilers make a bet on Podkolzin

Episode 169

Thursday, August 22, 2024 • Duration 01:21:25

I'm back from vacation, and the Oilers spent the week wheeling and dealing, so I had plenty to talk about in this week's episode of Better Lait Than Never.

I started this week's podcast with a quick recap of my vacation to Toronto. It was incredibly relaxing until I ran into some travel delays. From seeing blink-182 again to Niagara Falls to driving around the city, I got up to a lot despite not being there for very long. That said, I think a week in the 6ix is my absolute limit, and I think it's important to add that it's incredibly nice to be back in Edmonton. Just me? Possibly.

Turning the podcast to the Oilers, I started the news with a look at the Broberg/Holloway offer sheet situation that reached its conclusion yesterday morning. After a week of waiting, speculation, and a handful of moves by the team, the Oilers opted not to match the Blues' offers on their young players, and I wanted to talk about why they chose to let both guys walk. I also looked at the other trades that happened this past week, including the Cody Ceci deal everyone's been waiting years to see and the trade to bring in Vasily Podkolzin from Vancouver. Despite being in August, this last week was a spicy one for the Oilers.

Lastly, I wrapped up this week's show with some betting talk, an RSB about airline travel, and worked through another round of voicemails that were all over the map yet again. The good news is that today's voicemails were a mixed bag of topics, which is always fun from my side of the microphone. Oh, and subscribe to my YouTube channel.

Ryan McLeod for Matthew Savoie trade reaction

Episode 160

Friday, July 5, 2024 • Duration 17:08

The Edmonton Oilers made a big trade today, sending Ryan McLeod and Tyler Tullio to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for Matthew Savoie. In case you didn't know, Matthew Savoie was the Sabres' 9th overall pick in 2022 and is widely regarded as one of the league's best prospects, which makes this deal all the more fascinating.

As I like to do when any big Oilers news comes down the pipe, I jumped in the studio for a quick 15-minute reaction episode to the trade and offered a passionate plea to Jeff Jackson to remain on as the team's GM. Given the way this dude has handled his business over the last week or so, it's almost impossible to expect any more from Jackson, and I wonder if all of this early success is changing his mind at all about whether or not he wants to remain as Edmonton's general manager.

Either way, this was a significant trade for the Oilers after what I'd consider to be one of their best free agency days ever, and I was too excited not to talk about it.

The Year of Nuge, McDavid and Draisaitl milestones, and the NHL trade deadline

Episode 70

Thursday, February 23, 2023 • Duration 01:22:13

We've officially passed the midway point of the week and that means I've got a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never to help break down what's happened so far and what's yet to come. This week, I'm looking at the Oilers' struggles in overtime, the Dynamic Duo's latest milestones, the Year of Nuge, and a whole lot more.

To kick off this week's episode of Better Lait Than Never, I got started with a look at life in Edmonton, specifically how we're working through another tundra week here in the capital city with temperatures plummeting through the floor. On the brighter side, however, we're also inching closer to the Oilersnation 15th Birthday party, and that has me endlessly excited for what is sure to be a wonderful afternoon with the Nation at the Pint Downtown. Getting back to the Oilers, I started off with the good news after Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins all registered milestones in last night's win over the Philadelphia Flyers, and how it's so much fun to watch them do their thing together. And since all three of those guys are having such amazing years, it's almost impossible to understand how they're still spinning their tires in the standings. That led me to talk about the four-game losing streak that was basically the Oilers' own fault as they simply could not close out games to save their lives. Lastly, I wrapped up the episode with another round of voicemails to get your take on what’s been going on over the last week.

Erik Karlsson, Patrick Kane, and the finest Silly Szn rumours you could hope for

Episode 69

Wednesday, February 15, 2023 • Duration 01:06:51

It's Wednesday afternoon and that can only mean one thing — a brand new episode of Better Lait Than Never, your mom's favourite podcast. This week, I'm talking about all of the silly szn rumours that are surrounding the Oilers right now, the fact that Jesse Puljujarvi is still here, the Super Bowl, and a whole lot more.

To kick off this week's podcast, I got started with a quick look at the Oilersnation 15th Anniversary party that will be happening on March 18th at the Pint Downtown. As much fun as we've had over the years, it's crazy to think that the Nation is already turning 15 seeing as it doesn't really feel like we've been doing this that long. Then again, when I walk into Nation HQ these days, it's wild to see how many people actually work for this company now. Moving the podcast back to sports, I spent the next 10 minutes or so talking about all of the rumours surrounding the Oilers right now, including their reported interest in Erik Karlsson. Even though having Karlsson in blue and orange seems like a whole lot of fun, I have a hard time believing a deal like this will actually happen, ya know? Same goes for the thought of bringing in Patrick Kane to take our top-end offence from a Ferrari to a fighter jet. I also touched on the oddness of the Kailer Yamamoto situation as we all expected him to be activated from the LTIR yesterday only to have the deadline come and go without activity. Is there a trade in the works? As Tom Petty once said, "the waiting is the hardest part." Lastly, I wrapped up the episode with another round of voicemails to get your take on what’s been going on over the last week.

The Stretch Drive, Trade Rumours, and winning the Pacific Division

Episode 68

Wednesday, February 8, 2023 • Duration 48:26

How happy were you last night when the Oilers finally faced off against Detroit after a 10-day break? Probably 12/10 happy, right? Me too.

To kick off this week's podcast, I got started with a quick recap of the latest episode of MILF Manor. Why? Because I'm committed to the bit at this point and I need to stick with it. Not to mention, this show is a masterpiece and if you're not watching it yet then I encourage you to reevaluate your life. Back to the Oilers, we're right in the thick of the silly szn and that means there are rumours aplenty around this team right now, so I walked through some of the latest rumblings to try and make sense of what's happening. Seeing as last week's episode of the podcast kicked the hornet's nest a little bit, I feel even more bullish on the information I have, especially with Ken Holland admitting that he's got some tough decisions to make if Yamamoto comes off the LTIR in the next few days. And seeing as Kailer Yamamoto is traveling with the team and taking normal reps at practice, you'd have to think that he'll be back in the lineup sooner than later. On the more annoying side, I took umbrage with the fact that a bunch of Detroit Red Wings players were acting like real tough guys when the linesmen were around even though it was obvious they didn't want any of the Oilers' smoke. Lastly, I wrapped up the episode with another round of voicemails to get your take on what’s been going on over the last week.

Matt Berlin's big night, Jesse Puljujarvi Rumours, and a Pond Hockey recap

Episode 67

Thursday, February 2, 2023 • Duration 01:02:46

Another Wednesday has landed on your calendars, which means I've got a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never to help fill the rest of your week with a little dose of shenanigans. This week, I'm recapping the amazing Jasper Pond Hockey Tournament, Matt Berlin's night to remember, Oilers trade rumours, and a whole lot more

To kick off this week's podcast, I got started with a quick look at episode 3 of the greatest TV show in the history of cameras. Of course, I'm talking about MILF Manor, the show where eight moms are looking for love in a dating pool comprised of their own sons. I also spent some time talking about the Jasper Pond Hockey Tournament that took place at the beautiful Jasper Park Lodge this past weekend, and how much fun we had with not only the other participants but also the folks from Flamesnation. Getting back to the Oilers, how could I not talk about the amazing Matt Berlin story that happened on Saturday night against the Blackhawks after the U of A netminder subbed in for Jack Campbell for the final 2:26 of that hockey game? As far as cool stories go, this one ranks right up there with one of the most fun sports moments that I've ever seen. But even though most of us loved the move by Jay Woodcroft and the Oilers, there were plenty of angry folks on hockey Twitter trying to rain on our parade. Sticking with the Oilers, I also ran through some of the latest rumblings surrounding Jesse Puljujarvi and how it truly feels like the countdown clock is on for his time with the organization. Lastly, I wrapped up the episode with another round of voicemails to get your take on what’s been going on over the last week.

These are the Edmonton Oilers we expected them to be

Episode 66

Wednesday, January 25, 2023 • Duration 51:06

Happy Wednesday, friends, and welcome to a brand new episode of Better Lait Than Never to recap the week so far, preview what's ahead, and sprinkle a little bit of nonsense into your week. This week, we're looking at the Oilers' six-game winning streak, what to expect at the trade deadline, the all-star break, and a whole lot more.

To kick off this week's podcast, I got started with another look at the greatest TV show in the history of cameras. Of course, I'm talking about MILF Manor, the show that some are calling the grossest piece of television ever made. I also spent some time talking about the Jasper Pond Hockey Tournament that's set to take place at the beautiful Jasper Park Lodge this weekend, and how excited I am to be going back even though the weather could be taking a turn for tundra town. Switching gears to our beloved Edmonton Oilers, I dove into the six-game win streak and just how impressive the team has looked over this stretch. I mean, we all knew the ability was in there, but after a very mediocre first half to the season, we're finally seeing the Oilers playing up to their potential. Can they keep this run going given their schedule over the next few weeks? I also touched on some of the latest news surrounding the team, and how that may affect what Ken Holland does at the trade deadline. Lastly, I wrapped up the episode with another round of voicemails to get your take on what’s been going on over the last week. Want to leave a voicemail for next week’s show? Do it here!

#NationVacation recap, Kane is back, and the Edmonton Oilers are buzzin'

Episode 65

Thursday, January 19, 2023 • Duration 52:56

We all made it back from the #NationVacation to Las Vegas in one piece, and now it's time to get back to business with a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never. On this week's podcast, I'm talking about Vegas, Evander Kane, Jesse Puljujarvi, and how much of a difference a week can make.

To kick off the show, I spent the first few minutes recapping what was undoubtedly an amazing #NationVacation down to Las Vegas with a group of really incredible people. But since we did an on-location show on Saturday afternoon, I didn't want to spend too much time saying the same things over and over again. The point here was just to say thank you to everyone that makes these trips so special, and I cannot wait until March when we head to Toronto with another fantastic crew. Changing gears, how could I not spend a few minutes talking about MILF Manor, which could be the greatest TV concept of all time. That's not to say that the show isn't without its issues, but dammit did I ever laugh as I was watching the first episode. Getting back to the Oilers, it's pretty amazing how much can change in a week as the team not only saw Evander Kane return to the lineup but they also rattled off four straight wins against Pacific Division opponents. Sure, you can say that Anaheim and San Jose are terrible — we all know that's the case — but to also come up with big efforts against Vegas and Seattle should be celebrated. I also touched on the latest roster news that's happened over the past couple of days as the team had to make a flurry of moves to be able to fit Kane in under the cap. We also saw Jesse Puljujarvi get healthy scratched last night, which kicked off a hornet's nest on social media after Tyler broke the news on Twitter. Is this the beginning of the end for the Bison King? I covered this and more in the latest episode of the podcast.

The Gang Goes to Vegas

Episode 64

Saturday, January 14, 2023 • Duration 32:28

In the days leading up to our #NationVacation to Las Vegas, hearing the excitement building up a Nation HQ gave me the idea to record a bonus episode of Better Lait Than Never with the crew because I knew there would be some nonsense stories to tell. As expected, I was right.

On Monday afternoons, we hold content meetings at Nation HQ and this past meeting was all about what kind of content we would be making once the crew landed in Vegas. With a plan in our pockets and dreams of payouts in our hearts, we hopped on a plane and made our way to Sin City. Outside of getting a bunch of work done, the viewing party, and going to the game, we didn’t really have too much planned which left ample time for shenanigans. And seeing as this is some people’s (read: Woz’s) first time to Las Vegas, I knew there would be some ridiculous stories to share on a bonus episode of Better Lait Than Never. With that in mind, I packed the hotel room with people and we started talking about everything that’s gone down so far. Was there Oilers talk? A little bit, but the focus of today’s episode was all about what the crew has been getting up to, what everyone is working on, and whatever else we could think of for this bonus episode of Better Lait Than Never.
