Real Life Podcast Episode 80 – NHL free agency recap, Puljujarvi, and a podcast studio update

Jul 3, 2018, 18:37 EDTUpdated: Jul 4, 2018, 16:35 EDT
It was another busy week on the Real Life Podcast as the boys had a lot to get to with free agency wrapping up, the World Cup in full swing, and an old friend taking a contract in Russia.
On this episode of the Real Life Podcast, the guys start out with a quick look at the World Cup and whether or not they think Russia could be trying to rig it for a home court win. Could it be possible that everyone gets a Poots Card if they can manage a win? Next up, the guys talk about what went wrong with Nail Yakupov and how he ended up going from a first overall pick to signing in the KHL only six years later. With free agency on their minds, the boys get into what the Oilers did on July 1st and whether or not it will be enough to get them back into playoff contention. Lastly, we got a podcast studio update about what’s coming along and when it will be ready and finished things off with some listener questions from Twitter. Needless to say, this was another jam-packed episode of the podcast that you’re going to want to hear.
