The Nielson Show - May 20th, 2026 - Hour 2

TSN's Craig Button kicked off today's show to break down a wild week in the hockey world. We started by getting his reaction to Stan Bowman's recent comments regarding the Kris Knoblauch firing, and looked at how Vegas handled Bruce Cassidy's situation. From there, we debated whether Craig Berube is the best option on the market and if these Oilers specifically need a more stern voice behind the bench. The coaching carousel conversation kept rolling as we shifted to John Tortorella's future in Vegas—is he a lock to stay behind the bench next season? Finally, we got Craig's take on the Vancouver Canucks' massive staff shakeup over the past week before wrapping up with his thoughts on the Eastern Conference Final.   It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.   In the middle of the hour it was time for the boys to give some Free Advice for Damon Bunting.   Eric Macramalla capped off hour two with his thoughts on the Habs moving on to the Eastern Conference Final and shared his expectations for the upcoming series. He then touched on the debacle of a situation the Oilers have put themselves into.
