The Nielson Show - June 9th, 2026 - Hour 2

Published 6 hours ago
Description

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!?
