## Resource

Former Oilers winger Luke Gazdic kicks off today's program to dive headfirst into the massive Mike Babcock conversation. Luke shares his raw initial reactions to the introductory press conference, weighs the heavy pros and cons of the hiring, and drops some high praise on the addition of DJ Smith as the new associate coach. We then transition to the blue line as Gazdic breaks down what a potential Darnell Nurse blockbuster trade could actually look like, before wrapping up with his definitive picks for the biggest offseason winners in the NHL so far. It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day. After the break, it was time for the fellas to dive into everyone's beefs from the week. The boys had some very relatable beefs today. To wrap up the second hour, Reid Wilkins stopped on by with his beef and his thoughts on all the latest Oilers news we've had this week.
