It's been another wild week around here with the Oilers rollercoaster making another loop, and I've got a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never ready to recap it all. On today’s podcast, I talked about spending a couple of days in Toronto and Montreal, the Oilers' comeback against Columbus, Trent Frederic's fight, and much more.

It's a strange time to be an Edmonton Oilers fan. We have high expectations for the team around these parts, and for the third year in a row, their start to the season has been anything but spectacular. It gets even more interesting when I've been to Calgary, Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal in a single week. Sticking with the Oilers, how could you not talk about the wild game they had against Columbus, when the team both got booed on home ice and also came back for the win? Part of the story from Monday night was the fight Trent Frederic got into with Mathieu Olivier, and it didn't take long to see the mismatch there when the boys started chuckin' 'em.

Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a Righteous Sack Beating about airport food prices, then wrapped up the podcast with another round of voicemails. The voicemail was very quiet again this week, but the limited messages were still fun anyway. The voicemail is my favourite way to wrap up the show and give everyone a chance to share their thoughts. Another hearty thank you to everyone who contributed to this week's episode. Having all of you in the mix makes the show so much better.

I thought it was going to be a quick episode and ended up bullshitting for an hour. Shout out to everyone who dropped in on the voicemail this week.

It's been another wild week around here with the Oilers rollercoaster zooming up and down, and I've got a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never ready to cover it all. On today’s podcast, I talked about the Nation Vacation to Vancouver, the Oilers' recent run of games, Isaac Howard's steady improvements, Jack Roslovic settling in, and much more.

After wrapping up the intro with a full breakdown of the Vancouver Nation Vacation, I dove into the rollercoaster that is being an Edmonton Oilers fan in 2025. While the Oilers' record isn't actually that bad, the inconsistencies from game to game are undoubtedly frustrating. How the team can go from sloppy and disorganized, as we saw for long stretches against Seattle and Vancouver, to being a total wrecking ball against the Utah Mammoth makes no sense whatsoever. Even though we're used to knowing how well Edmonton can play and watching them fall short of that bar early in the season, that doesn't make the frustration any less, even if no one is particularly worried in the long term.

Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a Righteous Sack Beating about player fines before wrapping up the podcast with another round of voicemails. The voicemail was very quiet again this week, but the limited messages were still fun regardless. The voicemail is my favourite way to wrap up the show and give everyone a chance to share their thoughts. Another hearty thank you to everyone who contributed to this week's episode. Having all of you in the mix makes the show so much better.
