Show Notes
Dusty is BACK, and the boys are ready to break down one of the biggest days on the sports calendar!
The Edmonton Oilers kept their start rolling with another tidy victory over the Los Angeles Kings! Now sitting on a 5-game win streak, Edmonton remains the only team in the NHL without a regulation loss.
The fellas caught up as it's been a minute since they last shared the airwaves, they then dove into Morning Announcements for Haddies Golf Shop to recap everything that transpired last night in the world of sports.
After the break, we got right into The Prolux Lighting Morning After Show! In this segment, we took a deep dive into last night's game. What was the key moment, what the super stat and who were the fourth and 38th stars…

We got the third hour started with Mr Mikes Kind of Easy Trivia.
Bruce Boudreau was the first guest on today's show. We got right into the Oilers talk with him, starting with Connor McDavid's unreal start to the season. He then touched on the play of the team so far this season, how important Nugent-Hopkins return is tonight for the team. We then looked elsewhere and got his thoughts on Brady Tkachuk's return last night in Ottawa and as well touched his biggest surprise so far this season.
Dave Jamieson is back in the house, and the desk is loaded for a packed Thursday edition of The Nielson Show, live right here on Edmonton Sports Talk!
We got the third hour started with Mr Mikes Kind of Easy Trivia.
Jamie McLennan kicked off today's guest lineup, jumping straight into a breakdown of last night's thrilling overtime win and what makes this Oilers squad so fun to watch right now. The conversation quickly shifted to the crease, with Noodles evaluating Devon Levi—what sets him apart from previous Edmonton netminders of the McDavid era, and whether it's fair to label him the goalie of the future. The guys also looked down the ice at Minnesota's Jesper Wallstedt, discussing his potential to evolve into one of the league's elite goaltenders. To wrap things up, Noodles previewed tonight's marquee matchup in Ottawa as Brady Tkachuk makes his first emotional return to the nation's capital since being traded.
