Boomer, Pinder and Rhett dive back into the increasingly chaotic Mike Babcock situation as the Edmonton Oilers' coaching search takes another dramatic turn. What initially looked like a controversial hire has now become even more complicated after reports surfaced that the NHLPA has formally requested the NHL delay Babcock's hiring until a full investigation can be completed. The guys discuss the latest reporting, why this story refuses to go away, and what it means for both Babcock and the Oilers moving forward. They also revisit the allegations that led to Babcock's resignation in Columbus before he ever coached a game and debate whether Edmonton should continue pursuing him at all. With the NHLPA, NHL and Oilers now all involved, the biggest question is simple: how does this actually end? Does Babcock eventually get the job, or has this process become too messy to move forward?

The Los Angeles Kings have turned to Peter Laviolette as their new head coach, a move that feels like a logical short-term fit for a team looking to remain competitive while its young core continues to develop. In Edmonton, reports that several Oilers stars played a major role in interviewing Mike Babcock have sparked debate about how much influence players should have in coaching hires and where the balance of power lies between the dressing room and management. The Babcock process remains in limbo with no clear timeline for the league's review, leading to questions about whether the Oilers could revisit Bruce Cassidy if things fall apart, or whether they already know Vegas won't permit that conversation. Meanwhile, the Stanley Cup Final is tied after Carolina's Game 4 win, powered by two more goals from captain Jordan Staal, who has been a dominant force at age 37 with five goals in four games and countless key faceoff victories. The series has produced an incredible 33 goals through four games, the second-highest total in Final history at that stage, fueled by relentless pressure and goaltending that has been solid but hardly dominant.

June 11th, 2026: Cup Talk; Babcock to Edmonton? by Twofiveandten
Edmonton Oilers leadership, including Zach Hyman and Leon Draisaitl, are reportedly advocating for Mike Babcock to become their next head coach despite his history of bullying. They discuss the potential fallout of such a hire and whether Babcock's lack of remorse will prevent his return to the NHL. Earlier, the conversation covers international football nicknames and the double-landlocked geography of Uzbekistan. 01:15 - World Cup Nicknames 05:14 - Oilers Coaching Search 13:30 - Charity and Athletes
This week, the boys talk about the Mike Babcock situation in Edmonton and talk about how wonderful the Stanley Cup Final has been and many might be missing out.

The Edmonton Oilers season may be over, but the conversation is just getting started.On today's episode of Oilersnation Everyday, Tyler Yaremchuk and Liam Horrobin continue their offseason coverage by breaking down the latest rumours surrounding the Edmonton Oilers. They'll also touch on another major developing storyline around the team, with reports from Elliotte Friedman and Mark Spector suggesting that Darnell Nurse has officially requested a trade out of Edmonton. The discussion around what that means for the Oilers' blue line, their long-term direction, and how serious the situation is will be part of the ongoing conversation around the team's offseason plans.They'll also dive into the latest developments surrounding Mike Babcock and the NHLPA's investigation into his time with the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2019.

Nick Alberga & David Pagnotta are joined by Toronto Sun Leafs reporter Terry Koshan to break down the latest surrounding Toronto's ongoing coaching search.

Plus, he shares his thoughts on the Mike Babcock-to-Edmonton rumours and why he doesn't understand the fit.The conversation then shifts to the Toronto Marlies' run to the Calder Cup Final. Koshan weighs in on whether John Gruden deserves serious consideration for the Leafs job, while highlighting the outstanding play of Artur Akhtyamov as a major reason for the team's success. He also assesses the development of Easton Cowan and Ben Danford during the playoff run before wrapping up with his thoughts on Toronto's goaltending situation and what the Leafs should do in net this summer.

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start with the latest on the Oilers and their reported pursuit of Mike Babcock as head coach, with the NHLPA requesting that the league open its investigation into his Columbus tenure. Then, they look back on Carolina's Game 4 win over the Golden Knights to knot up the Stanley Cup Final, Brandon Bussi's performance in net, and whether Vegas should consider turning to Adin Hill over Carter Hart. Later, Sports 1440's Jason Gregor (31:45) stops by to discuss the Oilers' chaotic coaching search, why he's not sold on Babcock, and the likelihood that Darnell Nurse is moved in the offseason. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
Boomer, Pinder and Rhett are joined by TSN's Jamie McLennan to react to the increasingly chaotic Mike Babcock situation in Edmonton. Just when it looked like the Oilers were moving closer to hiring Babcock as their next head coach, reports surfaced that the NHLPA is pushing for a full investigation into his past conduct before signing off on any return to the league. The guys discuss why this story continues to grow, what the latest reports could mean for Edmonton's coaching search, and whether the Oilers underestimated the backlash that would come with pursuing Babcock in the first place. Noodles weighs in on the controversy, the league's decision to investigate, and whether a coach with Babcock's history should be getting another opportunity behind an NHL bench. Is this a reasonable step by the NHLPA, or is Edmonton's pursuit of Babcock already dead in the water?

The hockey world is spinning, the rumours are flying, and the big boys are finally back together. Today, Joaquin Gage (Gager) is anchoring the ship alongside YouTube Trev! It's been a hot minute since these two shared the airwaves, so the fellas have plenty of catching up to do before they dive headfirst into the absolute storm surrounding the Orange and Blue! On Today's Show: The Mike Babcock Era—This Might Be Real: The noise around the rink isn't slowing down. Reports keep pointing toward Mike Babcock becoming the next bench boss of the Edmonton Oilers. Gager and Trev lay it all out on the table: Is he truly the right man to lead this star-studded group to a Stanley Cup? The boys break down the ultimate pros and cons of bringing such a rigid, high-pressure coach into a room that already features the best players on the planet. The Darnell Nurse Dilemma: This is where things get really interesting. How does a potential Babcock hiring affect Darnell Nurse? Gager gives the player perspective on whether a coach with Babcock's strict defensive accountability can finally unlock the elite, shutdown version of Nurse we've all been waiting to see. On the flip side, Trev looks at the asset-management angle—does this hire create a structural change that forces management to finally pursue a blockbuster trade to clear out that massive contract? The Nasties Text Line: The chat is already buzzing, and the text boards are wide open. The boys spend plenty of time reading your live feedback, checking the temperature of Oil Country, and letting the fans dictate the chatter. The Oil Stream is presented by Boston Pizza!
The Stanley Cup Final is four games deep, and we're breaking down everything we've seen from the series so far, including our updated predictions, biggest surprises, and whether momentum has shifted heading into the final stretch. We also dive into the latest Dylan Larkin trade rumors, with reports linking the Red Wings captain to Florida, Minnesota, and Vegas. Which destination makes the most sense, which teams need him the most, and what could Detroit realistically expect in return for a player with four years remaining on his contract? We also discuss the Edmonton Oilers' decision to hire Mike Babcock as their next head coach, whether coaching was truly the team's biggest issue, and what Babcock brings to the table that Kris Knoblauch didn't. Plus, we react to the latest NHL Awards, including the Jack Adams, Norris, Ted Lindsay, and Vezina Trophy winners, before making our own predictions for who will take home the Hart Trophy. In this week's Money Moves segment, we examine the Minnesota Wild's six-year extension for Michael McCarron and what it means for their salary cap situation moving forward, as well as Evgeni Malkin's new one-year deal to remain in Pittsburgh. Would we have made the same decisions if we were running those organizations? Finally, we continue our offseason Team In Review series with the Vancouver Canucks, Chicago Blackhawks, and Calgary Flames, identifying the biggest priorities each franchise must address this summer. We wrap things up with another edition of Flaming Hot Takes, where we each bring two bold NHL predictions and put them to the test. #NHL #Hockey #StanleyCupFinal #StanleyCup #NHLPlayoffs #ConnorMcDavid #NathanMacKinnon #DylanLarkin #DetroitRedWings #EdmontonOilers #VegasGoldenKnights #FloridaPanthers #MinnesotaWild #MikeBabcock #NHLRumors #HockeyPodcast #AfterTheHorn #GuerillaSports #HockeyTalk #NHLNews Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Liam Horrobin is running the show today on Oilersnation Everyday, with Oilersnation writer Michael Menzies riding shotgun as the guys dive into a very busy news day around the Edmonton Oilers.The big story continues to evolve around Mike Babcock, with new reports surfacing this morning suggesting the NHLPA has received “significant” additional claims regarding his tenure in Columbus — the same situation that ultimately led to his firing. What does this mean moving forward, and why is this gaining traction now?The conversation doesn't stop there. The guys also break down the report that members of the Oilers' leadership group may be pushing for Babcock to become the next head coach in Edmonton. If true, what could that mean for the upcoming season, the locker room, and even potential future free agent decisions?Plus, we open up the mailbag to see how Oilersnation is reacting to all the speculation and rumours swirling around this potential hire. To wrap things up, Liam and Michael get you set for game day with some Bet365 picks and betting angles to watch.A packed episode with plenty to unpack — let's get into it.
We got the third hour started with Mr Mikes Kind of Easy Trivia. It was then time for Three Questions Too Many presented by Park Mazda. Before Ryan Rishaug, we got into Lt. Eric's weekly ranking's of power presented by The Ranch. Today, he ranked what the best possible food names could be for the Oilers if they hire Mike Babcock. TSN Hockey Insider Ryan Rishaug wrapped up today's show, and there was certainly no shortage of drama to dissect. Ryan kicked things off by hinting at some potentially massive news breaking right here at home before sliding straight into the escalating Mike Babcock situation. He shared all the latest updates that have surfaced since our last chat, detailing the timeline now that the NHLPA has officially requested a league investigation. We asked Ryan point-blank if he believes this current organization is operating with a level of dysfunction, and got his inside thoughts on how a potential Babcock hiring might alter the future of Darnell Nurse on the Oilers' blue line. We finished the show like we always do with The Wrap from William Huff.
Former NHL goaltender and TSN analyst Jamie "Noodles" McLennan kicked off today's show! After sharing some great stories about finally meeting YouTube Trev, we dived straight into the latest breaking news out of Oil Country. Noodles gave us his take on the developing Mike Babcock coaching situation—specifically breaking down what the NHLPA's request for a formal league investigation means for the franchise moving forward. If the investigation doesn't swing in Edmonton's favor, what does that say about the future relationship between Connor McDavid and the players' association? We also debated whether Babcock is actually the right fit for this locker room, the reality of potential coaching rust after being out of the game, and what ultimately went wrong during his final days in Toronto. Plus, Noodles weighed in on the rumors surrounding Darnell Nurse's future with the club before wrapping up the segment with his thoughts on the Stanley Cup Final. It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day. After the break, it was time for some Weekly Advice for Damon Bunting. As always, another great segment full of advice. We capped off hour two with Eric Macramalla and today was the perfect today to have him on with the whole Babcock/NHLPA situation. He broke this down in the best way he could to touch on why he thinks this is a serious mistake for the orange and blue.

Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill are joined by TSN Hockey Analyst and former Maple Leaf Frankie Corrado to break down the latest in Toronto's coaching search. Corrado weighs in on the intriguing possibility of Joe Pavelski behind the Leafs bench, explaining why recently retired players can bring a fresh perspective to coaching and why the Martin St. Louis model in Montreal is worth examining. He also discusses what Toronto's checklist should be in finding its next head coach, the value of adding an experienced consultant to support a younger hire, and why the organization should be searching for its own version of Spencer Carbery.Later, Corrado shares his thoughts on the growing speculation surrounding Mike Babcock and the Edmonton Oilers. Having played under Babcock in Toronto, he discusses the veteran coach's strengths, shortcomings, and why success behind the bench requires much more than X's and O's.Finally, the conversation shifts to the NHL Draft as Corrado explains why he believes the Leafs will select Gavin McKenna first overall. He breaks down what makes the superstar prospect special and why some players simply "get it" at an elite level.
Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill break down Carolina's pivotal 5-3 win over Vegas in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final to tie the series up a two games a piece.From there, the conversation shifts to the Maple Leafs' ongoing coaching search. Could Joe Pavelski be a legitimate candidate despite his limited coaching experience? The boys debate the merits of bringing in one of the NHL's most respected former players and what Toronto should be looking for in its next bench boss.Later, TSN Hockey Analyst and former Maple Leaf Frankie Corrado stops by to share his thoughts on the coaching search, the Pavelski buzz, the possibility of Mike Babcock landing in Edmonton, and the direction of the Leafs under John Chayka.
Rumours continue to swirl that Mike Babcock could be the next head coach of the Edmonton Oilers, a surprising development given his recent comments about being retired and the controversy surrounding his exits from Toronto and Columbus. The belief is that key Oilers leaders, including Connor McDavid and Zach Hyman, may have supported the idea, with Edmonton seemingly accepting that Bruce Cassidy is no longer a realistic option. In Toronto, Joe Pavelski has emerged as a potential coaching candidate, with comparisons being drawn to Martin St. Louis' successful jump behind the bench in Montreal, although the Leafs would be attempting the experiment from a far different competitive position. Meanwhile, frustration has boiled over in Detroit as Dylan Larkin has reportedly requested a trade, providing a three-team wish list of Florida, Vegas and Minnesota after years of playoff disappointment and another painful late-season collapse. On the ice, the Stanley Cup Final continues to deliver incredible drama, highlighted by Game 3 in which Carolina fell behind 4-0 before mounting a remarkable comeback to force overtime, all while maintaining its composure through the adversity. Mitch Marner stole the spotlight early with a natural hat trick and 10-shot performance that showcased a rarely seen shooter's mentality, though his heroics were ultimately overshadowed by the game's wild momentum swings and Vegas' eventual victory.

Boomer, Rhett and Pinder react to the stunning reports linking Mike Babcock to the Edmonton Oilers head coaching job and try to make sense of one of the most controversial stories in hockey. Nearly three years after his brief and disastrous stint with the Columbus Blue Jackets came to an end before he coached a single game, Babcock is once again being connected to an NHL bench. The guys discuss Darren Dreger's reporting, the Oilers' apparent interest, and why the organization would be willing to revisit a coach whose reputation has been under intense scrutiny for years. They also get into what this says about Edmonton's urgency to win, whether players and management believe Babcock has changed, and how Oilers fans should feel about the possibility of him becoming the next coach. Is this a smart hockey decision, or are the Oilers taking a massive risk at the worst possible time?

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Mike Babcock coaching hire, the public's reaction to the move, line combinations, and more.We kicked off the Tuesday emergency episode of ONR with a look at the Oilers' decision to bring in Mike Babcock as their new head coach. After weeks of hearing Bruce Cassidy's name as the main target for the job, it was a stunning development to see Mike Babcock's name attached to the team, given all of the recent history and baggage associated with this specific candidate. While there's zero doubt about the resume, the reality is that not much has gone well for Babcock since winning with Detroit nearly 20 years ago. Needless to say, the fanbase's reaction was as spicy as expected, and that's why we gathered for an emergency episode of ONR to break things down.Sticking with the Babcock conversation, we looked back at some of his coaching controversies and wondered whether the Oilers will be asking for him to change, or if the franchise is expecting that same guy to show up and turn things around. Given the franchise's messaging that they wanted a firmer approach behind the bench, it always seemed like it would be a short list of candidates, but the boys certainly didn't think there was a world where Babcock was the solution.
