Leon Draisaitl is a stud, Connor McDavid climbs the Oilers' point ranks, and a Happy New Year!

Better Lait Than Never

I may be a day late with this week's episode of Better Lait Than Never, but I do plan to get the podcast back on track now that the holiday season is over. On this week's show, I discussed the Dollars for Dogs campaign, new Edmonton Oilers line combinations, rumours about the Vancouver Canucks, and a whole lot more.

I kicked off this week's podcast with an update about the Dollars for Dogs campaign after I got a few new bids since I last recorded, which means the pressure is steadily rising now that the per-dog total is rising. I also talked about living out some childhood dreams after buying myself a new toy yesterday, and while I don't usually splurge on electronics all that often, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't having fun so far.

Turning the show toward the Oilers, I finally ended my in-person losing streak after attending the New Year's Eve win over the Utah Hockey Club. If I'm being honest, I was nervous going into Rogers Place on the 31st for two reasons: 1) the boys hadn't won with me in the bar in a while, and 2) the Oilers' record on NYE tends to stink anyway. Fortunately, it all worked out after some key performances by the team's best players.

Finally, I wrapped up this quick episode of BLTN with a Righteous Sack Beating about trade deadline expectations before wrapping up the show with another round of voicemails. The inbox was quieter again this week, but I still got a healthy chuckle from your ideas, feedback, and voicemails. As always, I sat back and laughed while listening to everything that's been on your mind over the last seven days.
