The Nielson Show

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.
 
Greg Wyshynski was the final guest on today's show. We started with a brief recap on last night's game and his thoughts on that series as a whole. He then highlighted one player in particular, that player being Taylor Hall. We then headed out West to discuss the other series that has the Avs on the brink of elimination.
 
We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.

TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button kicked off the show this morning live from Kelowna, and he brought a ton of insight from the Memorial Cup. Button shared his raw scouting report on 16-year-old phenom Landon DuPont, detailing exactly why the Everett Silvertips dynamic defenceman is being hailed as the NHL's next true superstar.
 
We then bounced around the professional ranks, picking Craig's brain on the tactical adjustments defining the NHL's conference finals out East and West. Finally, we brought the conversation right back home to Edmonton, getting Button's expert evaluation on the Oilers' newest European signing—Finnish forward Aku Raty—and where his 57-point skill set projects to fit in the organization.
 
It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.
 
After the break, we got into Weekly Confessions for Spectrum Rent All. Some good confessions from the boys today.
 
We then finished off hour two with Fired Up for Gemco Fireplaces. Today, we're fired up about the season long CFL fantasy that launched today.

Joaquin Gage was the final guest on today's show. We started with a hypothetical F1 question, then touched on the Montreal Grand Prix and why it was such fascinating watch. We then changed gears into some Stanley Cup Playoffs and Oilers talk.
 
We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.

Former NHL goaltender and current TSN analyst Jamie McLennan kicked off the show this morning with a fantastic, in-depth conversation. "Noodles" started by dropping his raw takeaways on both of the NHL's final four matchups before shifting focus to the Metropolitan division, breaking down exactly how head coach John Tortorella has completely moved the needle and changed the culture with his squad this season.
 
With the Eastern Conference Final heading into a raucous Bell Centre in Montreal tonight tied up at one, McLennan mapped out his tactical preview for Games 3 and 4 and highlighted what the Canadiens need to do to protect home ice. Finally, we steered the ship right back here to Oil Country, where Noodles weighed in on the ongoing coaching search and what kind of timeline Stan Bowman is looking at to fill the vacancy.
