Watching a game at Mullett Arena, Oilers lose to the Bruins, and Evan Bouchard's contract

Nation Real Life

The boys are back from the Arizona #NationVacation, which meant there was a lot to talk about on the Thursday episode of the Real Life podcast.

Kicking off the podcast, the guys got started with a recap of the trip to Scottsdale and how it was one of the greatest weekends any of the guys have ever experienced. From going to a game at Mullett Arena to the pre and post-game show at Devil's Advocate to cruising around in autonomous cars, there were plenty of stories to cover despite the trip being only 47 hours.

Getting back to the Oilers, the guys walked through the experience of watching the game in a rink that small and how it was an electric environment to watch a game. To put it lightly, it was absolutely bananas to go to an away game in another country that felt just like a home game at Rogers Place. The unfortunate part is that there's no way an arena that small should be part of the National Hockey League so everyone just felt lucky that they were able to experience it at least once.

Finally, the guys wrapped up the Thursday episode of Real Life with a look at last night's loss to the Bruins and how that game was both thrilling and frustrating at the same time. From the way the boys stunk it up in the second period to the missed PP opportunity in OT, the first matchup of the season against Boston was a rollercoaster of emotions.
