Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Oilers Legend Craig MacTavish (3/16/26)

Q: What do you think about the Oilers' playoff chances given the current depth and the latest acquisitions?

MacTavish highlights improved depth, a stronger penalty kill, and key players stepping up as essential ingredients for qualifying, while acknowledging the division's competitiveness and the need to outperform expectations.

Oilers Legend Craig MacTavish (3/16/26)

Q: Could you envision back when you were coaching the team in 2003, 2004, with a $30 million salary cap, that Edmonton would have a brand new building hosting such events?

MacTavish responds that the trajectory was hard to predict but stresses the dramatic rise in Edmonton's profile, the new arena, and the city's willingness to host premier hockey events as a testament to the organization's long-term stability and fan support.

Sportsnet Writer Jason Bukula (3/17/26)

Q: How are you doing?

I'm good, happy to be on and talk shop about the draft and my current work.

Oilers Sportsnet Colour Analyst Louie DeBrusk (3/19/26)

Q: Louie, what stood out to you from the Vancouver game and the way Edmonton handled the Florida rivalry talk after it?

Louie emphasized the rivalry's intensity, noted Florida's resilience despite injuries, and suggested Edmonton should maintain discipline while applying physical pressure to shift momentum without crossing lines. He highlighted that the team needs to stay focused on the playoffs and balance the lineup to compensate for key players.

Hockey Blogger Bruce Curlock (3/19/26)

Q: Can you discuss Maxime Berezhkin's NHL comparable?

Bruce explains there isn't a clear direct NHL comparable yet, but the coaching and development environment, including Bob Hartley's influence, complicates the projection and highlights the variability in his offensive potential.
