We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.

Former NHL netminder and TSN analyst Jamie McLennan opened today's guest lineup, kicking off the segment with a lighter look at his and Dusty's recent broadcast travels before diving into all things Oilers. McLennan analyzed Edmonton's recent stretch of play, offering a balanced breakdown of the pros and cons in their overall team execution. Drawing from his expertise between the pipes, Jamie broke down new goaltender Devon Levi's game—highlighting key strengths in his technique along with areas for refinement. The crease talk continued with an evaluation of Tristan Jarry's form that should offer some encouragement for Oilers fans, before closing out with thoughts on former Edmonton netminder Stuart Skinner and why his best hockey may still lie ahead in Winnipeg.
 
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. What's good today is both the Elks and Oilers are in action this weekend.
 
This then led to the Edmonton Elks Weekly Bugle, which LTE & JMO dished out their thoughts on tonight's game as the Elks look to make it two in a row.
