Dustin Nielson and the resident brick wall, Joaquin Gage, finally share the desk again after a minute apart. The chemistry is flying, the dynamic is firing, and the fellas have an absolute mountain of hockey culture, gaming nostalgia, and tactical Oilers blueprints to tear through.
On Today’s Show:
The Face of Next-Gen Hockey: EA Sports just dropped a massive bomb on the gaming landscape, officially naming San Jose Sharks superstar phenom Macklin Celebrini as the cover athlete for NHL 27! At just 20 years old, he becomes the youngest cover star in the video game’s legendary history. Dusty and Gager debate the pick: Is Celebrini the most exciting cover athlete we’ve seen in a hot minute?
The Ultimate EA Nostalgia Trip:
The Celebrini news opens up the historical vault. The boys look back at the most iconic, legendary cover athletes to ever grace the franchise—from Owen Nolan’s called shot in NHL 2001 to Peter Forsberg on NHL 98. Who takes the crown for the greatest game cover of all time? Plus, the fellas check in on Benny, who is currently on an absolute, ungodly, legendary all-time heater in Chel.
The Ultimate Oilers Energy Line Matrix: Shifting back to real life on the ice, Dusty poses a major depth-chart puzzle for Gager. With a heavily fortified roster heading into camp, what is the optimal layout for the Oilers’ energy lines this season? The boys map out the combination of speed, physical heavy-lifting, and bottom-six grit needed to carry this team through a long Pacific Division grind.
The Trivia Crease: To close things out, Dusty puts Gager right back in the hot seat with a brand-new, hilariously challenging game of Who’s That Goalie? Can the former NHL netminder identify these obscure, forgotten crease-dwellers from the 90s and 2000s based on deep-cut career clues, or is he getting completely pulled from the net?
2 Guys & a Goalie is presented by GS Construction!
