We’re winding down the work week and that means a fresh episode of the Real Life Podcast is here and ready to get you set for the weekend. On today’s show, the guys looked at tomorrow’s postponement, a hypothetical Yaremchuk scenario, and welcomed Iain MacMillan from OddsShark to break down the latest NHL news and what’s going on in the world of sports gambling.
Kicking off the podcast, the boys jumped into the show by dissecting the news that the Oilers vs Canucks game for Friday night has been postponed. Unfortunately, the Canucks weren’t exactly put in a great spot with their reshuffled schedule and the NHL and PA decided that there wasn’t enough time to get fully prepared to play. From there, the guys got into a hypothetical about whether or not they would prefer the Oilers to get a Game 7 or a 5-on-3 powerplay for the win? Needless to say, this question caused a much bigger argument than anyone probably expected, and it didn’t get any better when Jason Strudwick joined the show and chimed in with his take. Finally, the guys wrapped up today’s podcast by welcoming Iain MacMillan from OddsShark to help break down the latest betting trends from the NHL, recap the week that was, and offer up details on the latest news from the world of sports.
