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.
 
Chris Streveler joined us in the middle of hour two. We got his thoughts on both games from the CFL this weekend. He touched on how Chad Kelly looked before he was taken out on Saturday. He also recapped the Lions beating the Roughrriders. We then looked ahead to this weekend where now the Alouettes will play the Blue Bombers and the Elks will play the Lions. What are his thoughts on both of those games?
 
Joaquin Gage was the final guest on today's show. We touched on everything from last night's game. Does Walman ever get slotted back? Colton Dach looks like a completely different player? Connor McDavid continues to do Connor McDavid things? He finished with some F1 talk as Max Verstappen got the job done in the Mexican GP.
 
We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.

Hockey Insider Darren Dreger headlined today's guest lineup, diving straight into Edmonton's perfect weekend sweep in New York. Dreger weighed in on whether the Oilers' recent structural play makes them a less dynamic product to watch, before breaking down the coaching dynamic—analyzing the lingering imprint of Mike Babcock alongside DJ Smith's hands-on impact. Turning to Connor McDavid's historic scoring tear, Dreger evaluated whether a 200-point season is within realistic reach. The discussion shifted to the Winnipeg Jets' ongoing downward spiral and whether management will be forced to make a major move. Finally, Dregs closed out his hit with an update on the weekend's biggest headline, clarifying where things stand regarding the rumors surrounding Nikita Kucherov.
 
We then gave our Early Bird Bet presented by Play Alberta.
 
In the middle of hour two, we got into MMMMMM That's Good presented by The Italian Centre Shop to tee up this weekends Western Conference Final in the CFL which sees the Elks host the Lions.
