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. Some great questions today.

ESPN Senior NHL Writer Greg Wyshynski closed out today's program, and the boys went straight into the deep end on the Edmonton Oilers. Wysh drops his insights on how aggressive Stan Bowman will realistically be when the market opens tomorrow morning, and names the specific targets he believes the Oilers should focus on to shore up their situation between the pipes. From there, Greg takes us on a rapid-fire tour around the league, identifying the one franchise he expects to be the most active player on the free-agent floor. Finally, Wysh wraps up the segment with a fascinating, big-picture look at the future of No-Movement Clauses (NMCs) and how star players are changing how general managers navigate the salary cap.

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

TSN Hockey Insider Craig Button kicked off today's program, and he was in absolute peak form! Craig joins the desk to give us the blunt, unfiltered truth on the Edmonton Oilers' approach heading into tomorrow's Free Agent Frenzy. Button lays out a fascinating debate: should Stan Bowman aggressively hunt outside upgrades, or is it time to trust the internal players already developing in the system? Plus, Craig weighs in heavily on the blue line logistics, unpacking whether the Oilers can realistically move Darnell Nurse or if keeping the veteran defenseman is simply the smartest play left on the board. Finally, Craig closes out his segment by naming the one franchise he expects to completely weaponize their cap space and be the most active team in the NHL tomorrow morning.

It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.

After the break, it was time for some Weekly Confessions for Spectrum Rent All. Some solid confessions from the boys today.

We capped off hour two with some Off-Season, What Off-Season presented by GCL Diesel to discuss the Oilers goaltending situation.

Good morning, Nasties! Welcome inside a massive, high-velocity Tuesday edition of The Nielson Show, streaming live on Edmonton Sports Talk.

The countdown is officially on. Tomorrow morning, the absolute madness of NHL Free Agent Frenzy detonates across the hockey world. The boys are at the main desk, the phones are already ringing off the hook, and the blueprints are set for a wild 24 hours of anticipation, so get ready and let's lock in you bozos!

The vibes were certainly high to start today's show. Like we always do, we start off today's show with Morning Announcements for The Haddies Golf Shop to recap all the action from the sports world last night.

After the break, we got into YouTube Trev's final trade of the day. Did he finally put together a solid trade? The answer is no.

Then we got Fired Up for Gemco Fireplaces and today we're fired up that a week from now we'll be golfing for the third annual EST Golf Classic.
