Your Wednesday wouldn&#8217;t be the same without a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never to wrap up the day and help guide you through what&#8217;s left of the week. On today&#8217;s podcast, I&#8217;m talking about Oilers rumours, <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2024/08/23/edmonton-oilers-perusing-the-market-for-right-shot-defencemen-including-justin-schutlz-tyson-barrie/">PTO targets</a>, betting futures, reality dating shows, and a whole lot more.
I kicked off this week&#8217;s podcast with yet another conversation about reality dating shows. Not only do I love them, but I finally got through the newest season of Love Island USA, and I could not be happier about it finally coming to a close. Frankly, the seasons of that show are way too long, and it was standing in the way of watching a much better trash fire in Too Hot to Handle.
Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, it seems like the news du jour after the <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2024/08/20/edmonton-oilers-decline-to-match-offer-sheets-for-philip-broberg-dylan-holloway/">Holloway/Broberg offer sheets</a> is what the Oilers can do with their newfound cap flexibility. According to Daily Faceoff&#8217;s Frank Seravalli, the Oilers are looking around the league for defensive upgrades, including the idea of <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2024/08/23/edmonton-oilers-perusing-the-market-for-right-shot-defencemen-including-justin-schutlz-tyson-barrie/">bringing back a couple of old friends</a> for another tour of duty. Yet, given the current depth chart, all of the options the Oilers seem to be looking at are RHD, which has plenty of us wondering if that&#8217;s the right approach.
Lastly, I wrapped up this week&#8217;s show with some betting talk and an RSB about moving companies before working through another round of voicemails that were all over the map. The good news is that today&#8217;s voicemails were a mixed bag of topics, which is always fun from my side of the microphone, and you fantastic folks did not disappoint.
