What are the latest updates in the NHL today?
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. Bob Stauffer, Aidan Ganim, with you momentarily. We're going to go into NHL today for Elite Promotional Marketing. Then we're going to hook up with Ron McLean. But not before we go to the Ashley Fine Floors text line at 780-451-8800. And Jason from Sangudo, who loves to make me laugh, he says, Bob Stan Bowman says there's no dumb ideas. Well, if there's no dumb ideas, I'd like to see Mardi Gras beads given to ladies that show appreciation after the eventual underscored goals. This will promote team offense and improve the fan experience. That one comes to us from Jason from Sangudo.
Big thumbs up. Yeah, you guys, I thought that might make you chuckle. Let's do this. Let's head into NHL today. It is presented by our friends at Elite Promotional Marketing, your local branded merchandise specialist. Head to ElitePromoMarketing.com.
Well, a lot of things happening in the NHL today. No games on the NHL slate tonight as the Western Conference Final is settled. Montreal Canadiens playing for their playoff lives tomorrow in Carolina against the Hurricanes. A legend has passed away at the age of 60. Claude Lemieux passing one of the greatest playoff performers in the history of the NHL. Four Stanley Cups and a consmith over 1,200 games. He's going to be missed. In the hockey world, for sure. At the World Championships, Canada with a huge 4-0 win in the quarterfinals over the United States. They will play Finland in the semifinals. But for us here in Edmonton, a very scary scene. USA's Ryan Lindgren performed an illegal check to the head of Oilers defenseman Evan Bouchard.
Not many updates, but he did not return in that game. Stan Bowman just gave an update.
He's done for the tournament. I mean, concussion protocol is one week. That's a decerebrate concussion. He's done for the tournament, and... You know, the only good news for Edmonton is it's in May.
Yeah, for sure. And, of course, in the Memorial Cup, the matchup set. Kelowna Rockets failing to win any of their round-robin games, so the host city is now out. The Kitchener Rangers went perfect, so they have their spot in the final. Still one spot remaining. The Shakutami Saganae face the Everett Silvertips in the semifinal tomorrow night.
That injury update on Evan Bouchard is part of the Orders Now Injury Report. It's presented by James H. Brown and Associates, Alberta Injury Lawyers, the heavy hitters of injury law. Trent Brown, big-time hitter back in the day with the Edmonton Elks. He knocked a couple when he was safety. He caught a couple wide receivers clean and knocked them out. He was worried about them on the field. I remember when he played. I mean, you want to hammer a guy, but you don't want the guy to get hurt. That all comes part and parcel. This text comes in on the Ashley Fine Flores text line from Mitch in a grader. Bob, if Bender and Cassidy both become available, is there one you'd prefer to be the coach of the other?
Thanks. From Mitch in the grader. But you saw Bruce Cassidy did spit and chiclets. It was very kind of Paul Bissonnette and Ryan Whitney to have some fun at my expense today. Beautiful. That's you love it. You love it when you're on the show, even when you're not on the show. Awesome stuff.
How did Claude Lemieux impact the NHL and its community?
Hey, either of those guys would be right there. Right, like you're going to hear names like Bruce Cassidy if Vegas ultimately allows him to interview teams. And again, the belief is John Shannon said on yesterday's show, he thinks that will happen. Okay. Does Bednar, I don't know, what do you think? I don't think Bednar is done in Colorado. Do you think Bednar is done in Colorado?
No way.
I'd be shocked by that.
They've got time left in that quarter.
Cassidy, Labulette, you know, Berube's name is out there. Babcock. That is a name that, you know, there's some people that think he's one of the top three or four coaches of all time. So we'll have to continue to monitor this situation. All right. And we never BS you on this show.
