There&#8217;s an Oilers pre-season game against the Jets happening tonight, which meant I had to get myself organized if I was going to record the podcast in time to get settled in for the game.
Kicking off the podcast, I started the show with some brand new music from Dangersuede after I spent the last few weeks asking why the BLTN original tunes had stopped flowing in. Seeing as I hadn&#8217;t listened to the song before it made its debut on the podcast, I gave my first impressions on the new song and loved it so much I had to replay it twice. Speaking of Dangersuede, my dude brought me some of the most delicious desserts you can imagine this past week and the problem has been that I&#8217;m eating them too fast.
Turning the podcast back to the Oilers, a report by Elliotte Friedman suggests that the <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2024/09/25/oilers-dont-expect-to-have-evander-kane-on-ltir-for-entire-season/">Oilers don&#8217;t plan to keep Evander Kane on the shelf all season</a> and that he could return to the lineup early in 2025. Seeing as that doesn&#8217;t fit my plan for the organization to cheat, I wondered out loud how likely that actually is to happen. Is Kane really going to come back in February, or will there be a mysterious soft tissue type of setback that keeps him sidelined for *checks notes* another couple of months.
I also talked about the viral clip of <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2024/09/24/fiery-clip-of-connor-mcdavid-during-stanley-cup-finals-shows-another-side-of-oilers-captain/">Connor McDavid yelling the dressing room</a> that was flying around the Internet this week, and how I thought it was great to see him get that fired up for a change. McDavid is usually so stoic in his approach to almost anything that hearing him get that animated was music to my ears. I can only imagine how much moments like that must impact his teammates given how generally calm #97 is known to be.
Lastly, I wrapped up this week&#8217;s show with some betting talk and a pair of RSBs before diving into this week&#8217;s lot of voicemails. Even though this week&#8217;s VM segment was one of the shorter ones we&#8217;ve had in a while, you fantastic folks always bring the heat when it comes to dropping your takes. More importantly, having your feedback on the show is one of the most important parts of BLTN and I&#8217;m always grateful that you take the time to chime in.
