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.
 
To wrap up a massive show, ESPN's Greg Wyshynski joined the guys midway through hour three. Greg kicks things off with a recap of his experience down in Sin City over the past few days before diving headfirst into the bombshell news surrounding Mike Babcock and the Oilers. The fellas cover every angle of the potential hire: Does Babcock deserve another chance behind an NHL bench, and is this the right move to push Edmonton over the top? Plus, Greg gives his quick thoughts on the latest coaching hire down in Los Angeles and wraps up with his definitive take on how the Stanley Cup Final has played out so far and who he has lifting the mug. 
 
After Greg, we quickly hit on YouTube Trev's trade of the day! 
 
We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.

TSN's Craig Button jumped on the line at the top of hour two to weigh in on the massive breaking news rocking Oil Country. With all signs pointing toward Mike Babcock becoming the next head coach of the Oilers, Craig shares his initial reactions on whether Babcock deserves a second chance, if current players should be concerned, and how the NHLPA might handle the hire. Plus, we look at how this polarizing move could impact Edmonton's ability to attract top-tier UFAs this summer. Craig then shifts gears to break down the roaring rumors surrounding a Sebastian Cossa trade to the Oilers and tees up tonight's crucial Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final.
 
It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.
 
After the break, we got into Offseason, What Offseason for GCL Diesel. In this segment the boys went around the room, discussing the pros and cons of Babcock being brought in. Lt. Eric and YTT, are in favour, Dusty, not so much.
 
We capped off hour two with our confessions for Spectrum Rent All. What could the boys be possibly confessing today!?

After three long weeks away from the microphones, the boys are finally back! Dustin Nielson, Lieutenant Eric, and YouTube Trev are officially back and better than ever on Edmonton Sports Talk.
 
The fellas have a massive amount of catching up to do, but there is no time to ease into things because an absolute bombshell is rocking Oil Country this morning, and that's what we started off with.
 
Morning Announcements for The Haddies Golf Shop was the first segment we hit on today's show to recap all that transpired yesterday in the world of sports, including the Oilers looking to land Mike Babcock as their next head coach.
 
After the break, Ryan Rishaug was the first guest on today's show. He stopped by to share his thoughts about the Oilers looking to sign Mike Babcock as their new head coach. We had plenty of questions and Rishaug has lots of answers. This brought the boys to the end of hour one.
