It was a win for the ages! Ok, maybe not, but it was a pretty fun night of Canucks hockey! Matt and Blake break down the unlikely night that was in Anaheim and what it might do for the Canucks lowly spirits of late. They look at a possible breakthrough performance from Jonathan Lekkerimäki, the Elias Pettersson train keeps chugging along, and the young defencemen are finding their games too.. The guys listen in on the Canucks post game comments and look ahead to the rest of the week vs San Jose and Toronto. Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by to give us his thoughts on the win and what it might tell us about the young sniper in Lekkerimäki. PJ looks at the similarities of the Canucks wins and takes on whether shot totals can go up more regularly for the team that is last in the NHL in that category. Then it's The Daily Hive's Rob Williams, who predicted the Canucks win, with his thoughts on Lekk's future star status with the fanbase and whether any other young players can help save the narrative this season. The guys also look back at the reception for Quinn Hughes and wonder what will change when he's back in a couple of weeks. Matt and Blake finish up with a preview of the Whitecaps match tonight, the BC Lions are battling injuries ahead of the West semi, and the Seahawks' rival just made a big trade too!

Matt and guest co-host Jamie Dodd crossover with Donnie and Dhali discussing Quinn Hughes' return to Vancouver and the standing ovation (?), Manny Malhotra's early days as an NHL head coach, and the contributions (or lack thereof) of some veteran would-be culture carriers. The guys also talk about the Canucks already approaching some dubious club and NHL records, Malhotra juggling lines as much as he has, whether Jacob Quillan deserves a call-up and the healthy scratchings of Paul Cotter and Jamie Oleksiak.

Cam Robinson joins to talk his biggest concern so far this Canucks season, Manny's role in all the losing, the players acquired in the Aatu Räty trade with Toronto, Caleb Malhotra's season at Boston U, a top 2027 draft prospect and Langley's Liam Pue, who at 16 is already dominating the WHL.

The guys talk big week for the B.C. Lions with their home playoff game, a significant trade by the Seattle Seahawks, the return of Thomas Muller for two big Whitecaps home games this season, and the upgrades to Nat Bailey Stadium for a minor league season that will happen in 2027, even if there's a MLB labour disruption.

Well it's 10 losses in a row for the Canucks and the latest comes from the hands of Quinn Hughes, so there's lots to chew on for Matt and Blake on this Monday. The guys look back on the unique night at the rink and how it compared with similar games in recent history. The boys listen in on the post game comments from the players and coach, and debate whether there's any fight left in the team as the losing mounts. RinkWide's Jeff Paterson jumps into the fray with his take on the return of Hughes and the Canucks' losing streak. JPat offers up what he sees as the path to victory for the Canucks going forward, the AHL possibilities to help, and the schedule ahead for the Canucks. BC Lions quarterback Nathan Rourke stops by to help preview the West semifinal coming up this Saturday. Rourke recaps a season that was full of ups and downs, the rest vs rust debate heading into the playoffs, and the veteran players that they all want to win a Grey Cup for this year. Matt and Blake finish up with a look at the CFL playoff picture this weekend, a massive win for. the Seahawks over KC, the Whitecaps are looking for answers and Vancouver Rise may have saved their season on the pitch!

The Canucks implode versus Detroit, it's 9 straight losses and the rebuild is off to an ominous start, so lots for Matt and Blake to digest on today's show! The guys look back on what might be the worst effort of the season for the Canucks, and then ask how they right the ship in time for Minnesota's visit on Sunday. The guys debate whether Quinn Hiughes' return was actually any sort of distraction or are the Canucks really just one of the worst NHL teams of the modern era?? They also examine whether the losing streak will have any effect on the reception for Hughes this weekend, and whether Hughes' uncertain future differentiates this game from Tkachuk's return. RInkWide's Jeff Paterson stops by with his views on the game last night, the tone of the post game comments, and the expectations for Sunday's game vs Hughes. JPat talks about the problematic play of the vets vs the youngsters, plus, his review of EP40 and Lekkerimäki's goals on the night. The Sheet's Jeff Marek stops by for a wide ranging chat on the woes of the Canucks, the return of Hughes, Tkachuk in Ottawa, and the future of superstar movement in the NHL. The guys debate whether there has been, or ever will be, a shift to Canadians wanting to win in Canada. Matt and Blake finish up with a Müller update and a lineup preview of the Whitecaps in Denver, the BC Lions get set for a weird one this weekend, while the Seahawks get some welcome news at running back as they get set to face their own Super Bowl running back!

The Canucks finally face a team at .500 or less tonight as they welcome in the Wings, so Matt and Blake take a look at the opportunity for a win to end the 8 game losing skid. The guys look at the changes to the forward lines, another Lankinen start, and a message sent to Öhgren. But they guys also debate whether tonight is a distraction from the big game on the weekend with the return of Quinn Hughes. Plus, is there any chance that Hughes' return can resemble the reception for Brady Tkachuk in Ottawa? Postmedia's Patrick jumps into the fray to discuss the incoming visit from Hughes and the Wild. PJ has his say on the differences between the Hughes and Tkachuk scenarios, and whether there was any avoiding the Hughes departure in the first place. Plus, are the Canucks able to feed off the energy for a victory like the Sens did in Ottawa? PJ finishes with an update on the Whitecaps situation and whether there's any reason for optimism surrounding the club's future. Then it's Steve Lloyd from TSN in Ottawa with a first hand review of the game last night and what led to the massive fan and team response to Tkachuk's return. Steve chronicles the hilarious subtleties that may have been missed in the lead up and during the night itself, and how the team's tortured history helped contribute to the festivities. Matt and Blake finish up with a look at a very interesting BC Lions' official lineup vs the Bombers, the Seahawks' health heading into the weekend is improving, and same for the Whitecaps as they look to finish their road trip from hell in style!

WIth the streak now 8 in a row for the Canucks, Matt and Blake listen in on the coach and players and react to another tough outing for a team that is last in the NHL in win percentage. The guys focus in on C Elias Pettersson, who is back to a point per game this season, but is once again sounding very frustrated with his lot in life. Should the Canucks explore a trade now while his production is back? Also, they look at the deployment of the two promising young forwards in Karlsson and Lekkerimäki, and whether there's more to see from them on a nightly basis. TSN's Frank Corrado stops by to discuss how the dressing room is supposed to deal with so much losing so quickly, and whether there's a fix that's wanted or needed for a rebuilding team. Frank also addresses the subpar play of the "role players" who may not be pulling their weight on the ice, and if the lack of NHL experience on the bench is showing in these losses. Frank finishes up with a preview of the Quinn Hughes return on Sunday and what might be said inside both rooms before the puck drops. The Daily Hive's Rob Williams is back and gives his thoughts on the ceremonies to honour John Garrett last night, plus, he looks at all the losing in Vancouver, and takes a deep dive into the woeful start to the season for Conor Garland in Colombus. Matt and Blake finish up with a peek at Whitecaps training ahead of their match in Denver, the BC Lions seem to be resting a lot of players this weekend, and the tailgate is back at BC Place!

The Canucks are finally playing a home game again and Matt and Blake make sure you don't miss a thing before the puck drops. The guys look at the expected lineup as Leevi Meriläinen tries to keep up his fine form in net, plus, they check in on the young Canucks and how Manny Malhotra is setting them up for this second encounter against the Cup champs. They guys also pay homage to the late John Garrett as the team gets set to honour him tonight at the rink. Don Taylor and Rick Dhaliwal check in for another edition of The Crossover, walking down memory lane with Cheech and looking at the long losing streak of the Canucks. The guys debate whether there's another waiver claim before the Canucks lose the guaranteed first choice on November 1st, and they talk about whether the structure is starting to improve night to night. DFO Vancouver's Elijah Ford stops by with his latest thoughts on the play of D-Petey, Linus Karlsson and Jonathan Lekkerimäki. He also looks at Manny Malhotra's developing taste at centre ice and whether it matters where the young defenceman are playing on the depth chart. Matt and Blake finish up with a look at the NFL weekend that was and the Jalen Hurts drama in Philly. They also examine the BC Lions playoff scenarios, the Whitecaps chances of winning the west, and the NBA is losing Canadian players??!!

A busy Friday for the boys as the Canucks come off a narrow OT loss to the Panthers and they pull off a trade with Toronto! Matt and Blake dive into the notable performances in Florida, including that of Meriläinen, D-Petey, Buium and the returning Filip Chytil. They debate which of the young defencemen is most capable of rising to the occasion over these 84 games. Plus, they break down the trade of Räty to the Maple Leafs, whether the timing was right, and who are these guys coming back the other way? RinkWide's Jeff Paterson stops in for a look back at the details of last night's effort, and gets into the positive post game comments of coach Manny Malhotra. JPat gives his first review of Chytil this season, talks about the changing expectations for EP25, and whether Meriläinen should be the guy on Saturday vs the Lightning. The Sheet's Jeff Marek makes his usual Friday visit as well and can't help but jump in on the Canucks road trip woes. Marek also has a first hand scouting report on the two young players coming the Canucks way in the Räty trade and talks about the likely road ahead for Räty.

Matt and Blake finish up with a look back at a perplexing Seahawks loss in OT, the BC Lions watch the scoreboard tonight to see if their game means anything, and the Whitecaps try to end their skid in Austin!

The first shoe has dropped on the Canucks season as the team puts Aatu Räty on waivers in the wake of another loss on the road! Matt and Blake recap the game, listen in on the coach, and talk about the performances and the improvements as the Canucks did make us watch the whole game at least. The guys get into roster changes with Räty either headed to Abby or another NHL team, and what the trickle down would be if they lost him. Plus, the guys also debate whether Leevi Merilainen is showing signs that he could be a long term investment. TSN's Frank Corrado stops by with his professional view of the play in net from the new Canucks goalie, the development path for Zeev Buium and other young defencemen in the Makar-Hughes era, and Frank reacts to the horrific starts for both the Flyers and Red Wings. Matt and Blake finish up with a preview of the Whitecaps and St Louis City in a match up of the top 2 teams in the west. They also get into the scenarios ahead for the BC Lions that could affect how they deploy/rest players this weekend, and the Mariners are on the hunt for a new and experienced manager to replace Dan Wilson

With the one last chance to get a NY win on the road trip as the Canucks face the Isles, Matt and Blake have the latest lineup news from the team. Manny Malhotra is changing the assignment for Zeev Buium and the rest of the D, so we listen in on the coach ahead of the game. The guys also debate whether this is the start of a run for Leevi Merilainen in net, and on which of the Elias Petterssons is having a better start to the season! It's another edition of The Crossover, as Donnie and Dhali drop by with their thoughts on the Canucks road trip so far. Dhali talks about whether the Canucks would be expected to make any additions in the coming weeks, particularly if they would reach out to Calgary for Zary. Plus, the guys look for positives as the goals and wins dry up. Then it's Elite Prospects' Cam Robinson on the Canucks' usage of Buium, Willander and D-Petey. Cam also talks about a deep Vancouver prospect that is already showing signs of popping in NCAA hockey, and a couple of hot starts for players coming up in the 2027 draft. Then some soccer talk as the voice of the Whitecaps Asa Rehman joins from the training pitch ahead of a massive game tomorrow in St Louis. The guys look at possible lineup decisions and discuss which version of the recent Whitecaps will show up for this one. Matt and Blake finish up with a look at the BC Lions playoff scenarios, the Seahawks are just being the Seahawks, and Shohei Ohtani is showing signs of human behaviour??

After a pair of lacklustre weekend losses, Matt and Blake take a look at the highs and lows of the performances, plus, they listen in on the coach's response as the lopsided scores continue. The guys jump in on the breakout game for defenceman Elias Pettersson and where his game now has a chance to grow, and is a new defence pairing arriving with EP25 and Tom Willander? RinkWide's Jeff Paterson joins the guys to discuss all that he saw, especially the struggling penalty kill and defensive structure to start the season. The guys all debate what the next step is for the goaltenders as well, with Kevin Lankinen at sea and Leevi Merilainen waiting for a run of games. Plus, has Jake DeBrusk's hot streak added to his value on the trade market? Matt and Blake finish up with a look back at a remarkable playoff clinching Whitecaps effort vs LAFC, the BC Lions clinch a post season berth of their own vs winless Ottawa, and the Seahawks blow a chance to take down the 49ers

After a tough loss in Carolina, Matt and Blake go through the exercise of looking at individual performances rather than the result. The guys peek in on the top line after they produced goals, especially what it means for the market on DeBrusk. Plus, they look at whether Räty or Mancini made the case to stay in the lineup this weekend. And then the uncomfortable question of who should be getting the starts in goal, after Lankinen's numbers appear almost unsaveable. Jeff Marek of the The Sheet shares his thoughts on the rebuilding process and the strong stomach that is so often needed. Marek looks back at successful rebuilds like Montreal and what they needed to endure. The guys also look at EP40 and his line's success and just how unstoppable the Canes appear to be again, with Stankhoven a big part of it. Then, it's RinkWide's Jeff Paterson with his detailed review of the game, both the beefs and the bouquets. JPat wonder about Merilainen taking over the crease, the sustainability of Lekkerimäki's play, and the special teams being an utter disaster. Matt and Blake finish up with a look at the Whitecaps trying to stop the bleeding and stay atop the MLS West, the BC Lions try to keep their push for 1st alive vs the worst team in history, and the Seahawks have a huge one this weekend vs the 49ers!

Another big, early season test for the Canucks as they face the defending Cup champs in Carolina. Matt and Blake talk about the new look lineup, the resting of key veterans like Schenn and Gallagher, and the chances of the Canucks keeping up versus the balanced 'Canes lineup. The guys also debate where the newcomers to the lineup, Räty and Mancini, are in the long term plans for the Canucks. Postmedia's Patrick Johnston stops by with his take on the tweaks, and the road trip's overall level of difficulty. PJ talks about how the dressing room vibes and bonding of the team has made such a drastic turn for the positive, and how that could insulate or be eroded when the losing eventually comes. Plus, did the NHL almost get it right with its "Hot for Hockey" marketing campaign, and is there a need to find new hockey fans in Canada? Then its Matt and Blake's longtime colleague Scott Rintoul with a look ahead to a new project he's working on called "SportsPage BC". The news portal will, like its namesake, focus on the local sports stories that often get missed and puts them all in one place. Scott talks about where he'd like to see the project go and how people can take part. Then Matt and Blake finish up with a look at the BC Lions' health as they face the winless RedBlacks, the Copa America is coming back to the USA afterall, and the head of global soccer may not end up being from Vancouver

On the eve of the first extended Canucks road trip of the season, Matt and Blake have the latest from practice in Carolina and what the new look lineup might give them tomorrow. The guys also chat on exactly how the issues in the room last season have now disappeared. TSN's Frank Corrado stops by to discuss road trip protocols in the NHL, and the dining schedule in particular, as Luke Schenn has been reported to be the organizer on the road. Frank gives us details on his most memorable meals in the NHL and when he started to pay for the table! Frank eventually gets to action on the ice too, commenting on the development and early performance of the young Canucks defencemen, Buium and Willander most notably. Then it's The Daily Hive's Rob WIlliams dropping by with his thoughts on the early bounce for EP40, and whether fans are buying that he's really back. Plus, Rob talks about the early Canucks attendance woes, and whether Nils Höglander is giving him any reason to regret the trade. Matt and Blake finish up with a forgettable night of soccer, for both Canada and the Whitecaps, the Lions face more accusations of foul play, and a BC athlete could win a massive year end award!

The Canucks squeezed in a practice before they jumped on a plane, so Matt and Blake listen in on the coach's comments about week one, and what they want to see from themselves out on the road. The guys hear from Paul Cotter on his weekly honour and the Canucks slander that he's heard, plus, Jake DeBrusk on his return from illness and readiness to contribute. Matt and Blake also debate which team has taken over the crown as Drama Kings of the NHL. Don Taylor and Ryan Henderson join for another edition of The Crossover, talking about the early season glow up for the Canucks and how the fans are receiving it. Then it's Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects with his review of EP40's start and how the young Canucks blueliners have begun the season. Cam rebuffs the growing opinion that the 2027 draft may not be great, and he looks at Caleb Malhotra's debut with Boston University. Matt and Blake then finish up with a preview of this massive night in soccer with the Whitecaps and Fire each deploying a former Bayern star, and the CMNT vs the USMNT in a fiery friendly. The guys also chat on a notable BC Lions roster change, and the Seahawks look for help in the run game.

The first weekend of the NHL season is in the books and the Canucks are giving Matt and Blake lots to talk about! The guys recap the pair of games and the notable performances in both directions, from EP40's great start to Cotter's award winning week to the better defensive/goaltending in both games. The guys listen in on the player reaction after the Sunday game and look ahead to the big eastern road trip. Also, the guys take a peek around the Canucks landscape and the exploits of the picks and prospects in Abbotsford and beyond! RinkWide's Jeff Paterson joins to give us his take on what he saw, and his answer on whether EP40 is officially back. He also gets into the report cards for the team's younger players, how the goaltending rebounded over the weekend, and the Canucks attendance woes through 3 home games so far. Then it's the BC Lions' hero from the weekend, kicker Sean Whyte, who provided all the points vs the Argos. He talks about the historic victory, the possible extinction of these kinds of games when the goal posts move, and the Lions momentum towards a home playoff date at BC Place. Matt and Blake finish up with the NFL headlines, including another Seahawks win. Plus, the Whitecaps get set for a possible Bayern showdown vs Chicago, the shorthanded Canadian men prep for the Americans, and the entire MLB playoff story

After an absolutely wild home opener for the Canucks, Matt and Blake tackle all the talking points after this crazy start to the season. The guys bring you all the post game comments from the coach and players, give you all the relevant data, and debate the performances they've seen so far. From the defensive lapses to the inconsistent goaltending to the surprise offensive contribuitions, there's plenty to chew on after this week! RinkWide's Jeff Paterson stops by to give us his take on the proceedings and where changes may occur ahead of game 3 vs the Flames. JPat talks about the play of EP40, the young defensemen, and the brief look we had on the new goale in Leevi Meriläinen. Then it's The Sheet's Jeff Marek, who was early on the Adam Novotný train, and revels in his latest goal for the Petes. Marek also talks about the sample size needed to declare an EP40 "comeback", plus, he jumps in on Jack Hughes' recent behaviour, another nutty second contract is handed out in Anaheim, and the is Simon Edvinsson getting an offer sheet? Matt and Blake finish up with the latest on the Seahawks and Lions' prep for their games this weekend. Also, Thomas Müller is in some literally rarified air in Vancouver and the Whitecaps are back training ahead of their busy month!
