The Nielson Show - May 13th, 2026 - Hour 2

Jamie McLennan joined the show to provide a deep dive into the coaching firestorm in Edmonton. "Noodles" didn't pull any punches, arguing that a change behind the bench was overdue and outlining the specific coaching profile needed to stabilize this roster. Beyond the X's and O's, the former NHL netminder broke down the ongoing crisis in the Oilers' crease and questioned if a coaching swap is enough—or if the real issues stem from the front office. We wrapped up with his pulse check on the rest of the NHL playoff bracket.   It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.   We then gave some Free Advice for Damon Bunting. As always, the boys provided some great advice today.   Chris Morris joined the show to wrap up hour two with a comprehensive update from Edmonton Elks training camp. Chris detailed the aggressive roster overhaul from this offseason and explained why the culture being built in the locker room—and the community—feels fundamentally different this year. We also got his take on the arrival of Cody Fajardo and how the veteran QB fits into the Elks' new-look offense, plus a breakdown of the recent CFL rule changes designed to jumpstart the 2026 season.
