    The Nielson Show - June 22nd, 2026 - Hour 3

    We got the third hour started with Mr Mikes Kind of Easy Trivia.    It was then time for Three Questions Too Many presented by Park Mazda.   Former Oilers netminder Joaquin Gage closed out today's show in classic Gager fashion! Before hitting the ice with his hockey takes, he gave the boys an unexpected, highly educational breakdown on the inner workings of household sump pumps. Once the basement was dry, we dove straight into the Oilers' weekend headlines. Gager shared his raw analysis on the Jason Dickinson extension and officially slapped a letter grade on the five-year deal. From there, he gave his unfiltered thoughts on the looming arrival of Mike Babcock behind the Edmonton bench. Finally, the former goalie reacted to the earth-shattering blockbuster out East, analyzing how the Florida Panthers landed Brady Tkachuk and trying to figure out where the Ottawa Senators possibly go from here.   We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.

    The Nielson Show - June 22nd, 2026 - Hour 2

    TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger dropped by to kick off the show and immediately took the temperature of Oil Country. Dregs breaks down the inner workings of Jason Dickinson's fresh five-year contract extension, unpacking the $4 million AAV, the risk of the term, and what it means for Edmonton's bottom six. From there, we covered all angles of the looming Mike Babcock situation—including an insider's timeline on when an official hiring announcement could drop. Plus, with the Oilers facing a massive salary cap crunch, Dregs gives us the latest on the Darnell Nurse trade rumors and management's blueprint going forward. Finally, we switched gears to react to the absolute blockbuster trade that shook the hockey world yesterday, as Brady Tkachuk heads to South Florida to reunite with his brother, leaving the Ottawa Senators searching for a brand new identity.   It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.   After the break, we got into MMMMMM That's Good presented by The Italian Centre Shop! What's good today is how unreal Justin Rankin's season has been thus far.   We finished hour two with Offseason, What Offseason presented by GCL Diesel. YouTube Trev's trade of the day continues… and the nasties absolutely hated this one.

    The Nielson Show - June 19th, 2026 - Hour 2

    We kicked off today's show with heavy hitter Chris Johnston, getting his instant reactions to Team Canada's historic performance on the World Cup soccer pitch before diving headfirst into the hot-button issues in Oil Country. CJ pulled back the curtain on the breaking news surrounding the conclusion of the NHL's Mike Babcock investigation. With Babcock officially cleared to return to an NHL bench, CJ breaks down exactly what this means for the Edmonton Oilers and what fans should expect if Stan Bowman makes the hire. Finally, we headed out East to look at a chaotic week for the Maple Leafs. CJ gave us the inside track on Toronto naming Jim Hiller as their 41st head coach, followed by breaking analysis on the massive eight-year sign-and-trade blockbuster that brought defenseman Darren Raddysh to the Leafs this morning.   It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.   Following the commercial break, we served up a fresh edition of MMMMMM That's Good, proudly presented by The Italian Centre Shop. The soccer celebration kept rolling as the guys shared their personal match day experiences from last night's historic blowout victory and asked the listeners: Where did you watch the game?   From there, the conversation shifted right back to the burning questions surrounding Mike Babcock's potential arrival in Oil Country. We opened up the phone lines and text boards to see what the nasties had to say, reading through your raw reactions and going around the room to debate the audience's take on the looming coaching decision.

    We got the third hour started with Mr Mikes Kind of Easy Trivia.    It was then time for Three Questions Too Many presented by Park Mazda.   Dusty is away so the boys weren't able to do their traditional Scalding Hot Takes like they usually do on a Thursday's show. So instead, we each gave a realistic sports hot take.    We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.

    The Nielson Show - June 18th, 2026 - Hour 2

    Bruce Boudreau was the first guest on today's show. We started off with his thoughts on the Hurricanes winning it all this year then transitioned to the underwhelming news that broke in Toronto yesterday with the announcement of their new bench boss. We then got into the Oilers conversation, he shared his thoughts on the ongoing coaching situation and shared whether or not Mike Babcock is the right man for the job. We finished with Bruce like we always do, with some WWE talk.   It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.   After the break, we got into everyone's beefs from their week. What are the boys beefing about today?   We finished hour two with the one, the only, Reid Wilkins. Reid shared his beef, touched on the Elks home opener this Saturday and some Oilers talk.
