Hey, it's Bob Stauffer. I just wanted to let you know that you can listen to Oilers Now ad-free on Amazon Music, included with Prime. This is Oilers Now, and it is presented by World of Spas. Hey, we finally got some decent weather out there. Is it actually getting dark just as we speak right now? Is that what's going on here? Wow. I tell you, it was a spectacular morning to do an extended walk-on, no question about that. And we sort of have a regular Monday show here for you, and then we slip into summer. Okay? But coming up on today's edition of Oilers Now, Freddie Anderson did a media availability this morning. We'll talk a bit about that, of course, signing here on a bonus-laden contract, a $1 million base.
And then $1.8 million in performance bonuses, depending upon the amount of starts that he gets and how the Edmonton Oilers roll in the playoffs. So Frederick Anderson in the first half hour of the show. Then at 4.35 from Frank Lee Hockey, it'll be Frank Cervalli. From 5 to 6, Oilers legend Craig McTavish for Contract Equipment Limited. Back to you on Monday's final appearance of the summer. We will tell you that you can reach us on the River Cree Resort Casino Hotline, your home for live music and great performances. And speaking of the River Cree, they're going to bring in Canadian rock legends, Street Heart, live on July 30th with special guest Lee Aaron. Two powerhouse Canadian acts, one incredible night of rock.

Let's go to our top story for legacy heating and cooling, home and old payments and no interest for a year. That's how you build a legacy, legacy heating and cooling. Saturday, Dan Milstein, the agent for Shakir Makhamadoulin, put out that the orders had extended him, Makhamadoulin, a two-year extension at a $1.75 million gap hit. Yesterday, the Oilers announced that Spencer Stashny had signed a one-year extension at $1.525 million.
The Oilers announced both the Stashny and the Maka Madulan releases at the same time, which was after the close of when players could file for the arbitration process. In the end, there was 15 of them that did.
What insights does Bob share about Frederik Andersen's media availability?
including Jason Robertson of the Dallas Stars, which means in theory, if the arbitrator decided to do a one-year deal, that would make Robertson a UFA next summer. Kirby Dock of the Montreal Canadiens, who was qualified on a two-way, also represented by Jerry Johanson of the Sports Corporation, also elected to file for arbitration. Colton Dock, by the way, is an RFA that remains unsigned. I think that we may have some clarity on that topic sometime over the next couple of weeks. We will tell you tomorrow. Zach Hyman will join us on tomorrow's edition of Voters Now.
What are the details of Frederik Andersen's contract with the Oilers?
It won't just be about Mike Babcock, though. I mean, Zach Hyman has turned out to be one of the best free agent signings in NHL history. And Zach Hyman isn't just a player. He's an owner. He owns an OHL team, the Bradford Bulldogs. And they're a good OHL team. And we'll talk a bit about some of his passion for the game as well. Now, today... The Edmonton Oilers extended Owen Michaels a two-year deal at $900,000 AAV, likely slated to be in the minors to start the year. He is a 6'1 right shot center. Of note, not everybody caught it. It is a one-way deal next year for Owen Michaels. So that is sort of the news of the day. We got the young gun, Aiden Ganim here. Hello, Aiden. How are you doing? I'm good, Bob.
How are you? Good. Did you watch any of the soccer on the weekend?
Yeah, USA, or not USA, Mexico. England, Mexico was really good.
What did you think of Canada against Morocco?
You know what? It was due eventually. We knew that Canada wasn't going to win the World Cup this year. I would have liked to see maybe a little bit more fight, but the run that these guys went on, I mean, you just got to be happy for the way they played.
