Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded and edited, and it's ready to help you wrap up the week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed the Oilers' Game 2 loss, Connor McDavid's ankle injury, the series heading to Anaheim, and much more.
The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about the guy who threw the chicken/duck onto the ice, and how it was a moronic decision at that point in the game. Not only was it a dumb move to throw the bird on the ice, but to do it at that point of the game when the Oilers were buzzing was every shade of annoying. The guys even tried to think of better times he could have still done the stunt without annoying the entire fanbase.
Changing gears, the conversation turned to Tyler's beef of the week, which centred around the playoff spirit that hasn't really landed in Edmonton yet. Given that we're two games in and there are very few car flags on vehicles in the city, Tyler called out the fanbase for not getting hyped up for the first round and offered a plea to get more involved to show support. That led to a discussion about what went wrong in Game 2, and what needs to be sorted out ahead of Friday's first game in Anaheim.
Finally, the guys wrapped up the podcast on the Thursday episode of Real Life with a run of topics, starting with what the team needs to do better in Game 3 and beyond. From there, the boys played another round of 501 centred on how many playoff games a guy has played as an Oiler. Finally, Jay aired out a bonus Beef of the Week about Chalmers calling him at the most unfortunate times of day and complaining about never getting calls back.
