There is no better time in your week than when the notification comes through that a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never has been posted on your favourite podcast app. This week, we're discussing the Oilers' struggles, scoring issues, my trip to Toronto, and much more.

I started this week's episode of BLTN with an explanation of why I'm recording a day early and what I'll be up to in Toronto over the next few days. As much as I enjoy living on a plane these days, the same can not be said for red-eye flights, which is what I'll be taking tonight to head out east. Will I sleep on the plane? Unlikely. Will I complain about it the entire time I'm in Toronto? Yes. Yes, I will. On the bright side, Survivor is back for another season, which means another handful of weeks where I get to swoon over my new hero, Jeff Probst.

Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, I started with a breakdown of Monday's loss to the Sabres and how it's truly puzzling that Edmonton continues to struggle against mediocre opponents. Despite starting hot as a pistol, our boys couldn't beat Buffalo's goaltender with any of their early chances, which seemed to put them in a funk. I also covered the fanbase's reaction to what Stan Bowman did at the trade deadline, and how it always makes me laugh how angry we get regardless of what the GM actually gets done.

Finally, I wrapped up this quick episode of BLTN with a guest Righteous Sack Beating before wrapping up the show with another round of voicemails that were as entertaining as they were all over the map. The inbox was so funny again this week, and I got plenty of laughs from your ideas, feedback, and voicemails. As always, I sat back and laughed while listening to everything that's been on your mind over the last seven days.

With the Edmonton Oilers looking like a hot mess on the ice, there was plenty to discuss on this week's episode of Better Lait Than Never. On today's podcast, we covered the Trent Frederic trade, what to expect at the NHL trade deadline, frustration on the ice, and much more.

I kicked off this week's episode of Better Lait Than Never with a random collection of topics, including what we have planned for Friday's trade deadline, workshopping gift ideas for myself ahead of my birthday, and offering another tale of being every day fancy. Even though this bit is just getting started on the podcast, I already love having you fine folks sending me DMs about times when you've scored amazing deals.

Turning the podcast to the Edmonton Oilers, it's hard not to feel discouraged right now based on how shitacular the team is playing. Not only did the team lose its sixth game in their last seven tries last night against the Ducks, but they looked completely down and out without much fight to turn things around. Losing is one thing, but looking completely dejected while the tailspin is happening is another problem altogether. I also spent some time on the Trent Frederic trade, what Stan Bowman may do at the trade deadline, and much more.

Finally, I wrapped up this quick episode of BLTN with a Righteous Sack Beating about the trade deadline before wrapping up the show with another round of voicemails that were all over the map. The inbox was so funny again this week, and I got plenty of laughs from your ideas, feedback, and voicemails. As always, I sat back and laughed while listening to everything that's been on your mind over the last seven days.

It's Wednesday afternoon, and the Edmonton Oilers are struggling, which means there is plenty to talk about in today's episode of Better Lait Than Never. On this week's podcast, I discuss the Oilers' four-game losing streak, Leon Draisaitl's heater, trade deadline needs, and much more.

I kicked off this week's podcast by thanking the Gords for snapping the streak of cold weather we've been battling in Edmonton over the last two weeks. It may be a small thing, but just being able to go outside and walk my dog this week has been a huge win. I also took listeners behind the scenes a little bit about what we're working on ahead of the trade deadline, including our Daily Faceoff Trade Deadline special.

Turning the podcast to the Oilers, it doesn't take much searching to see how upset the fanbase is right now after a run of putrid games put the team on their first four-game losing streak of the season. It's not all bad news, though, as Leon Draisaitl continues to light the world on fire, and Matthew Savoie is looking like he could be a damned good player for a long time. That said, with only two weeks left until the trade deadline, a lot of us are getting antsy about what Stan Bowman may or may not do at the league's annual swap 'n shop.

Finally, I wrapped up this quick episode of BLTN with a pair of guest Righteous Sack Beatings, before wrapping up the show with another round of voicemails that were all over the map. The inbox was alive again this week, and I got plenty of laughs from your ideas, feedback, and voicemails. As always, I sat back and laughed while listening to everything that's been on your mind over the last seven days.
