Joined guest host Doug Dirks on CBC Alberta at Noon along with Dave Waddell from CBC Calgary to talk about the Edmonton Oilers, their playoff run and the first game at home in the finals. It was a great interactive show as we talked a lot about hockey, but also heard from a number of listeners about their personal experiences during the playoffs. Full segment is here: CBC Alberta at Noon (2024, June 13)
Topics we covered:
- What went wrong in games one and two in Florida, and what the key factors were.
- The general environment around this team, and why there’s plenty of optimism that the Oilers will bounce back.
- The play of Stuart Skinner, the pressure he’s in, and what to expect from him.
- The pressure around the Edmonton Oilers to win a championship, and the urgency fans are feeling.
- The officiating during the playoffs, and the frustration fans are experiencing.
Thanks to the CBC team for putting it all together!
