The Oilers hate Game 1s and I expect much better in Game 2
Manage episode 478684646 series 3301326
It's the Wednesday of Game 2 in Edmonton, which means a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never is ready to get you prepped for the night while looking back at the week that was. On today's podcast, I recapped Game 1, looked ahead at Game 2, what the Oilers need to do better, and much more.
I kicked off this week's episode of BLTN with a recap of what's happened so far. Starting with the Game 1 party at Greta, I wanted to thank everyone who came out for a late start on a Monday and turned the bar into a vibe, even though the game started horribly. But as any good Oiler fan will tell you, the boys haven't exactly had much success in Game 1s historically, but the reaction to the loss was incredible to watch.
As for the team itself, there were countless areas where the Oilers needed to improve, at least early in the game. For the first 38 minutes of Game 1, the Oilers looked like they couldn't do anything remotely productive, which allowed the Kings to essentially dominate the first two periods. Even with the loss, the way Edmonton was able to claw their way back from a 4-0 deficit has to have put a seed of doubt in the Kings' minds. Looking ahead at Game 2, I walked through some of the areas I think the Oilers can improve and how the new line combinations posted this morning could impact that plan.
Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a Righteous Sack Beating about that's taking over downtown Edmonton before wrapping up the podcast with a quality round of voicemails. While the voicemail was quieter again this week, the messages were very funny anyway. As always, finishing up the show with your opinions is my favourite part of the whole thing and something I always look forward to most.
