Two more meaningless games until it's Oilers playoff time

Better Lait Than Never

We've passed the midway point of the week, which means a fresh episode of your mom's favourite podcast is ready to massage your ear feelings. On this week's Better Lait Than Never, we're looking at Connor McDavid hitting 100 assists, potential playoff matchups, reality TV, and whatever else has been going on over the last seven days.

Kicking off this week's BLTN, I started the podcast with a random collection of topics, a confession that I might be getting hooked on Survivor again. Personally, I hadn't watched the show in over a decade, but having my missus glued to the TV every Wednesday night has piqued my interest. Then again, it might just be because I found out how much money Jeff Probst makes to host every episode.

Turning the podcast back toward the Oilers, I started the news with a tribute to Connor McDavid after he reached the 100-assist mark on Monday night against the San Jose Sharks. What was hilarious about that last assist, however, was that it took eight goals between the time Connor opened the scoring and when he picked up the helper he needed on Zach Hyman's 54th goal of the year. Evan Bouchard also touched some Oilers greatness against the Sharks after hitting the 80-point mark, and now, all I can think about is how much that next contract is going to cost.

Lastly, I wrapped up this week's show with an RSB about the NHL schedule and capped things off with another round of voicemails that ranged from Oilers talk to landlord issues and everything in between. Once again, this podcast always makes me laugh, and I'm so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keeps moving. Oh, and subscribe to my YouTube channel.
