The Heritage Classic, Sam Gagner's third tour, and all kinds of live music

Description
A fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never can only mean Wednesday afternoon and that you're on the back half of your work week. Are you excited? I'm excited. Kicking off this week's BLTN, I started with a recap of a very busy week for myself and the Nation. From the TOOL concert on Wednesday night to the Oilers' disaster in Minnesota on Friday to having the pendulum swing back the other way with a BOA win in the Heritage Classic, the emotional rollercoaster that is being an Edmonton fan never ends around here. Needless to say, having the boys kick off their season as poorly as they did was a major cause for concern, but it was equally fascinating to see how quickly the vibes changed with a win over the Calgary Flames. With the recap of my week out of the way, I dug into what's been a pretty busy week for the Oilers after the team waived Adam Erne and replaced him with a freshly signed Sam Gagner. For some fans, Gagner returning for a third of duty was precisely what they were looking for, while others hoped that Raphael Lavoie would finally get a crack at the NHL. How will it work out? Only time will tell. Lastly, I wrapped up the episode with another Righteous Sack Beating and a fresh round of voicemails to get your take on everything that's been happening since last week's episode.

I didn't get a chance to get through the voicemails in yesterday's episode, so I decided to go back-to-back with and work through what you've been thinking about over the last week or so. Keep leaving your takes, please, because this is honestly one of my favourite parts of the week. I love...

We're in the hours leading up to Game 4, and the Oilers find themselves in a familiar, albeit uncomfortable position. Win, and the series is tied, lose, and they'll backed into a corner. That's life in the playoffs when you can't stop shooting yourselves in the foot. I started this week's podcast...
