Yesterday00:51:05Tap to summarizeWe 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. Wrapping up today's show, TSN Edmonton Bureau Reporter Ryan Rishaug stopped by. We started things off on a lighter note, asking Ryan his absolute favorite way to consume an egg—which, naturally, led to a hilarious story. Then, we shifted gears to a heavy dose of Oilers talk. Ryan gave us his raw thoughts on Evan Bouchard's fourth-place finish in Norris Trophy voting, before breaking down Edmonton's top trade assets and the upcoming free-agent market. Plus, could an unexpected offer sheet be on the horizon for the Blue and Orange? We wrap it all up with his expert analysis on the Stanley Cup Final. It's an insider look you don't want to miss! We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.

We also get Jamie's insights on the wide-open Maple Leafs coaching search, the Nashville Predators hiring Chris MacFarland as their new President and GM, and wrap things up with his thoughts on Manny Malhotra taking over behind the bench for the Vancouver Canucks. It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day. After the break we got into Weekly Advice for Damon Bunting. As always, the boys gave out some great advice today.
