Alrighty, how's it going, Oil Country? My name is Aidan Ganim, and you're listening to Oilers Now on 880Ched, brought to you by World of Spas. Derek Scott, that's two days in a row he's picked the intro song today. Derek, why did you pick Afternoon Delight today?

Unknown 0:25

You know, I had to go because it's actually Will Ferrell's 59th birthday today, and we were talking about this before, and we both thought he was much older.

Aidan Ganim 0:31

Yeah, you know what? He gives off the impression that, you know, he might be in his mid-60s, early 70s, but when you told me 59 today, I was like, wow, that's impressive. Hey, that Will Ferrell, you know, he's a really, really good actor, one of my favorites growing up, but... He's just got terrible taste in a hockey team.

Unknown 0:49

I know. You always see him like ringside. What's the word I'm looking for? Ringside. Ringside at all the Kings games. I mean, face painted up and everything. He kind of looks like a checkerboard sitting there. He goes all in.

Aidan Ganim 1:02

It's not a good look. And maybe if he was wearing blue and orange, it'd be, it'd be a, you know what? Not even maybe if he was wearing blue and orange, it'd be a better look, but I guess, I guess he lives in LA, whatever. Happy birthday to Will Ferrell. You know, you could cheer for, for the Edmonton Oilers. You'd be a lucky, A lot more in oil country. But we've got a fun show for you today. Derek Scott, the tech producer of this show. Kellen Kennedy will join us later. It'll be a fun one. At 4.35 today, we're going to talk a little bit about the Montreal Canadiens. We're going to talk to the Hockey News' Kareem Haynes. Uh, she is the, uh, site editor as well as one of the writers, uh, for the Canadians website on the hockey news.

Aidan Ganim 1:42

So, uh, very, very educated on the topic. It'll be fun to talk about the Ivan Demidov signing as well as, uh, you know what? They just signed Kirby doc to a new contract today. So a lot of things we can go over at five Oh five Euler sports net reporter, Jean Principe will join us. I love talking to Jean whenever we're at the rink. He's just a, he's a phenomenal guy and oil country knows it. Uh, I saw his Twitter thread yesterday that someone stopped him while he was on his morning run, and he just replied, it's okay. The best way to start my day is by having someone interrupt my run by telling me they love me. So Gene's just a phenomenal guy. It'll be fun to talk to him. And the Detroit Red Wings at 535 will be the focus.

Aidan Ganim 2:22

Man, they're in big trouble here. lose Steve Iserman, a lot of question marks around Captain Dylan Larkin. That would be a severe hit for their squad if they ended up losing him. Local boy drafted in the middle of the first round a long time ago. It'll be interesting to see because it seemed like the main reason that Larkin was done with Detroit was because of the fact that Iserman didn't get anything done at the deadline and the team fell apart in the second half of the season and maybe a little bit of blame there so now that Iserman is out of the picture as the GM the Iser plan is over as it were maybe potentially Larkin sticks around but a lot of question marks there it looks like they're probably going to lose Patrick Kane as well so some work
