Better Lait Than Never

Oilers win two, Stuart Skinner's shutout, and NHL fines make no sense


Listen Later

It's been a busy week around here, and I've got a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never ready to hit your ear holes with another dose of Oilers adjacent shenanigans. On today’s podcast, I talked about the Oilers bouncing back from their season opener loss, Stuart Skinner doing what he can to shut up the haters, Jack Roslovic's Edmonton debut, and much more.


After a tough loss to the Calgary Flames in the season opener, the Edmonton Oilers rebounded with a pair of wins over the Vancouver Canucks and New York Rangers. While those two wins came after very different games and with very different heroes, the larger point is that our boys found a way to win despite two vastly different styles on the ice. Not only were those wins important, but I also got the chance to pump Stuart Skinner's tires a little bit after quieting down the haters with his first shutout of the season. Finally, I wrapped up the news with a quick look at Jack Roslovic's Oilers debut, and wondered whether he can do enough in the next few weeks to cement his spot in the lineup.


Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a Righteous Sack Beating about player fines before wrapping up the podcast with another round of voicemails. The voicemail was quiet again this week, but the messages were as varied as they were entertaining. The voicemail is my favourite way to wrap up the show and give everyone a chance to share their thoughts. Another hearty thank you to everyone who contributed to this week's episode, because having all of you in the mix makes the show so much better.
