<p>With limited time to talk to Sam Gagner, the boys jumped right in with a look at the Burger of the Month he&#8217;s doing with <a href="https://www.yegburger.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">YEG Burger</a> and why he felt like it was important to support the Edmonton Food Bank during these strange days. Speaking of strange times, Gagner spoke a little bit about how he&#8217;s been living while on lockdown, including some talk about staying in shape and building backyard rinks. If you didn&#8217;t know, Gagner&#8217;s dad, former NHLer Dave Gagner, started a company called <a href="https://customicerinks.com/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Custom Ice Rinks</a> that builds custom ice skating rinks all over the place and that inspired Sam to build one of his own. Changing gears, the conversation was steered back to life in Edmonton and the potential for our city to become a Hub City for the NHL provided that they&#8217;re able to safely resume play, and Gagner had plenty of thoughts on why it would work. As an unquestionable fan favourite, Gagner graciously faced a barrage of questions from the boys about his time with the Oilers, including a look at the Kid Line from his rookie season, his remarkable eight-point night, playing at Rexall Place, and a whole lot more.</p>
