Nothing is better than a fresh episode of the Real Life podcast to recap the weekend and start your week. On the Monday episode of Real Life, the guys discussed the Masters final day, the Oilers’ playoff run, and much more.

The guys kicked off the Monday episode of Real Life with an array of random topics, including everyone’s anticipation of the Oilers’ playoff run and Rory McIlroy’s Masters win from Sunday. Starting with the golf, the guys spoke about how awesome it was to see Rory get the grand slam after over a decade of trying to win that fourth major. Seeing as there was plenty of history about blown opportunities for Rory, watching him overcome that adversity was fantastic in every possible way.

This past weekend was an incredible sports weekend, and it was a lot of fun to watch the Oilers handle their business despite being shorthanded only moments after one of the most exciting Masters finishes ever. To assess the Oilers’ situation, the guys started by discussing Mattias Ekholm’s season-ending injury and how that is a massive blow to Edmonton’s playoff aspirations. No matter how you slice it, that is an enormous loss for an Edmonton team that has been questionable defensively all season.

Sticking with the NHL, the guys discussed some of the playoff races that are still happening, with only a few games left in the schedule, including Calgary’s path to the playoffs if they keep winning. As you’ll hear, there are plenty of storylines to follow during this last week of the regular season, and it will be fascinating to see how everything shakes out. The only problem with the conversation is that there was a lot of math involved, so you’ll want to sharpen your pencil and bring your calculators.
