On a combined second and third hour of the show, Reid Wilkins and Jay Milne sink their teeth into Connor McDavid’s thoughts on Mike Babcock before getting deep into the Elks/Bombers contest!
Push ‘Till You Break: McDavid claims that the entire leadership group wants Babcock to push them and to hold them accountable. If the leaders lead, the rest will follow. Could that really work?
A Long Time Coming: #97 mentioned that a Mike Babcock-type holding charge is something that the team has been calling for since 2019. Do professional athletes really need that extra “push?” How fast might Babcock’s shtick get old? How risky is this move?
Shawn Belle’s Thoughts: Former Oiler, long-time professional hockey player, Shawn Belle joins Reid and Jay to note his thoughts on the entire Mike Babcock hiring. The good, the bad, and the ugly… Bellezy doesn’t hold back!
Under The Bus: Kris Knoblauch leading the Oilers to a pair of Stanley Cup Final appearances wasn’t good enough? Is McDavid throwing his previous coaches under the bus with his quotes? Reid and Jay debate.
After that, host of the Commonwealth Stadium Green and Gold Kickoff Show, Matt Iwanyk, slides into the studio to preview the Elks’ vs Bombers clash from both sides of the ball! He also chats about Canada making it to the Round of 32 at the World Cup!
The boys have some fun during Buying or Selling before Jay takes us to the finish line with Words of the Day for the Edmonton Public Library!
