Better Lait Than Never: Oilers are heading to Dallas for the Western Conference Final

The Oilers are one sleep away from kicking off the Western Conference Final against the Dallas Stars, which meant I had plenty to talk about on today’s episode of Better Lait Than Never.

I started the podcast with a couple of odds and ends from the end of the Vancouver series that I forgot to cover in yesterday’s reaction episode of Better Lait Than Never before distracting myself and ending up on a rant about MILF Manor 2. If you haven’t watched that show, it’s arguably the dumbest program to ever grace the silver screen, and that’s the exact reason I love it. Horrible TV + Baggedmilk = Happiness.

Turning the podcast back toward the Oilers, I got into the news with a look back at some of the incredible stats that came out after Game 7 put the boys into the next round. Looking at Edmonton’s top players, it’s amazing to see where the numbers some of them put up rank amongst the best to ever do it. As we head off to Dallas for the Western Conference Final, the Oilers will undoubtedly need their big dogs to keep eating, but they’ll also need to get more from down in the lineup. I mean, there’s no better way to battle Dallas’ depth than with depth goals of our own, am I right?

Lastly, I wrapped up this week’s show with a guest RSB and capped things off with another round of voicemails ranging from Oilers talk to sad/happy Round 2 reactions and everything in between. Once again, this podcast really is one of my favourite parts of the week, and I’m so very grateful for the levels of participation by the wonderful BLTN community that keeps moving.
