On the eve of Canucks training camp, it's a massive edition of Sekeres and Price. The guys listen in on the media conference of the Sedins, Ryan Johnson and Manny Malhotra. Matt and Blake react to the claims of newfound teamwork already and how that may spell the end of the Canucks run of drama. They talk about the news on Thatcher Demko's availability and what that means for the team, plus, the team's belief in EP40 and the possible deployment of Filip Chytil. TSN's Frank Corrado joins the guys to expand on the Canucks' attempts to avoid "losing hockey". Frank talks about the right way to roll out a handful of young players that will be ready over the next few years, the patience needed in deciding a leadership group, and he weighs in on the good ole fashioned player holdout in Winnipeg, as Hellebuyck is poised to stay at home. Rob Williams of the Daily Hive was at the Canucks press conference and gives the guys his takeaways. He talks about the possibility of team camraderie, goaltending concerns, finding development amidst a lot of losses, and he even takes on the Sedin's hopes to build multiple ice sheets in the City of Vancouver. Matt and Blake finish up with a look at the Whitecaps semi final tonight in Montreal and the latest around the 'Caps and BC Place. Plus, the Jays' playoffs hopes begin to fade and the BC Lions try a new approach to get young fans.

Without having played a game, Matt and Blake tackle the concept of Canucks optimism on today's show. Newcomer Paul Cotter has said they will surprise people, so the guys look at all the ways that could happen. They also peer over to Minnesota where the Quinn Hughes contract drama has been resurrected in the state of hockey. They talk about how that may change the perception of the Canucks' trade haul, and where it's ultimately headed for the Wild. Patrick Johnston of Postmedia drops to offer his takes on the matters at hand and adds in a deep dive on the hopeful season ahead for Filip Chytil, who could be a key part of any Canucks surprises. Then, it's Rob Williams of the Daily Hive with news of a brand new hire for them in Canucks coverage, plus, he gets into the futures of Buium, Öhgren and other young Canucks could take the next step. Matt and Blake finish up with a recap of the C's latest playoff win, while the Whitecaps and Seahawks get big W's as well!

The boys are back! The hockey "season" begins and Matt and Blake are reunited to get you set for the first puck to drop! The guys dive further into the Zeev Buium contract extension and what the gamble means for both club and player. They also ponder the next captain of the Canucks and whether Buium would be a candidate. Also, Manny Malhotra has spoken more about his working relationship with Caleb, and sheds some light on how that might work when the time comes. The guys also kick around the possible waiver wire pickups this fall and the trades that still may need to happen (possibly Quinn Hughes). RinkWide's Jeff Paterson stops by to give his his reaction to the weekend signing of Buium and where he thinks the player may be headed in his career. Jeff talks about the direction of the team as a whole, and the other possible extensions that could match this. Seahawks Insider Gregg Bell joins the show as the defending champs get set to open the season tomorrow! Gregg gets into the difference in optimism between the defence and offence, the brotherhood inside the Hawks room, and the possibility of actually defending the crown. The guys wrap up the show with a playoff preview of the Vancouver Canadians, the Jays' boom and bust cycle down the stretch, and the Whitecaps and Lions both licking wounds after weird ones on the weekend.

Matt and co-host Jeff Paterson discuss the Canucks season outlook at this time of year. Typically it's filled with optimism. Is that the case this season? Are people rooting for losses? Or is hope once again springing eternal? They talk about Jake DeBrusk -- still a member of the Vancouver Canucks -- and whether they were surprised that he wasn't traded this season. They discuss the urgency of a DeBrusk trade, the captain's (minus a captain) skates ongoing at Rogers Arensa, the new guys arriving, the new coaching staff's duties, the lack of Canucks games on Amazon Prime, the murky Quinn Hughes situation in Minnesota and Evander Kane's social media feud with an ex-teammate.

DFO Insider David Pagnotta joins to discuss DeBrusk, the Kings interest in Elias Pettersson, and the interest in Brock Boeser, which probably won't amount to a trade. Pagnotta talks Hughes, Connor Hellebuyck, Dylan Larkin, and the mess in Detroit.

Canadian sports media podcaster/columnist Jonah Sigel discuss the lack of sports-talk radio in Vancouver, whether it's still viable, the shifting distribution landscape in media, and the futures of Elliotte Friedman, Kevin Bieksa and Landon Ferraro.

And Vancouver Canadians play-by-play voice Tyler Zickel joins to talk about the club clinching a berth in the Northwest League championship series, top prospect JoJo Parker, the catalysts who joined in July and the bonus home games At the Nat next week as the C's seek a sixth championship as a Blue Jays affiliate.

Matt and co-host Jeff Paterson discuss Canucks goaltending. Doesn't sound like Thatcher Demko will be ready from jump, Chris Driedger signed to a PTO, can Nikita Tolopilo take the next step, it's gotta improve on better defensive system alone. More light shed on the JT Miller-Elias Pettersson feud and Evander Kane's behaviour in San Jose -- are the Canucks actually now past all the drama? They talk about Connor Hellebuyck's now public trade request, Cale Makar's record-setting contract and Canucks prospects.

Kevin Woodley joins to talk goaltending, Demko's recovery, the possibility of claiming a goalie on waivers, whether a veteran like Driedger is needed for Abbotsford, chances Tolopilo is claimed or that they keep three goalies into the season. Kevin also talks about his interview with Ryan Johnson and the path forward for Pettersson.

Manuel Veth joins to talk all things soccer. Save the Caps, BC Place deal, Thomas Muller's return next year, the victory over Sporting KC, the club's player procurement and development strides as well as Canadian national team members moving on up in the world of global soccer...and the NHL's stated goal to be bigger in Germany.

The final Wednesday show of August and Matt and Blake get you up to speed on everything that's happened over the last 48 hours. The guys get into the Petterssons' choice of real estate investment as it appears EP40 is California bound for at least some part of the year. Training camp gets that much closer and the guys tackle the lingering questions. Then it's Kat Botchford making an in-studio visit to talk about the expansion of the Botchford Project to include a visit to the World Juniors this coming winter. Kat outlines the plan ahead, how she widdles down the list, and she trumpets the success of former Project grads like the inaugural participant David Quadrelli of DFO Vancouver. Matt and Blake wrap it all up with a look at the tons of soccer news from Whitecaps signings to key Canadian players on the move in Europe. The BC Lions make some personnel moves ahead of their date in Ottawa, all the baseball playoff races get updated too, including the Vancouver Canadians!

Another electric weekend of sports to recap today, plus, the hockey season gets another week closer! Matt and Blake begin the discussion on who the Canucks' first line centre might be this season and whether EP40 could still be that guy. The guys also tackle a winning weekend at BC Place as the Whitecaps and Lions both enjoy lopsided victories that could launch them into a promising finish to the season. The guys are then joined by former intern Elijah Ford, who is now writing for DFO Vancouver, to discuss some of the deep dives he's taken into the Canucks. The guys talk about the historic comparisons to EP40's downturn in production, the best utilization of Brock Boeser, and the timing of the Canucks rebuild amidst an escalating cap environment. Then it's a visit from one of the top baseball prospects on the planet, as the Jays number 1, Jojo Parker joins the show. He talks about his possible path to the Jays, the atmosphere of playing at Nat Bailey, and the possibility of playing with his twin brother someday! The guys wrap up the show with the latest on the Whitecaps' bid to manage BC Place stadium, the full MLB playoff race, and the golf season begins to wind down but Canadian win maybe on the cusp of greatness!

Your weekend setup is here from Matt and Blake! They guys jump into the Canucks media story as reports surface of a possible FM destination for Canucks games this season. This evolves into a discussion on the possibility of sports radio returning as well. They also take a look at Canucks comeback player options and who is most likely to find their game again. Plus, should the Canucks help out the Ducks with their salary cap issues?! TSN's Frank Corrado stops by to talk about whether the players today have any sports media habits and if he was ever sports radio listener. Frank talks about the poll question and which Canucks he thinks could truly bounce back. Frank also chats about the make or break year for Mancini and the situational pickle the the Ducks find themselves in with Cutter Gauthier. Then it's former BC Lions QB Travis Lulay joining the guys to discuss his induction onto the Lions Wall of Fame. Travis shares some of his favourite moments, his path to the CFL, and what he thinks of a Canadian QB in charge now in Nathan Rourke. The guys wrap up the show with a breakdown of the Whitecaps midweek stumble vs Houston, a Sedin is back playing in Vancouver, the Lions get set for the Riders this weekend, and the full baseball story as the Jays and C's have hope but the Mariners are at rock bottom.

Sekeres and Price are reunited! Matt and Blake are both back in studio to help breakdown a busy sports weekend. The guys also take a look at the quiet summer in the NHL and wonder if the Canucks should/will sign a late UFA. They go over who is still available and which players might fetch the highest price at the trade deadline. The boys also tackle the demise of Hockey Night in Punjabi and the effects on the local community. Then it's Cam Robinson from Elite Prospects on the Canucks' likely plan for Braeden Cootes and Adam Novotny, and which gets the longer look in training camp. Cam also talks about the likely Canucks goaltending situation, and whether a PTO or UFA might be needed with Thatcher Demko still not ready in September. The guys finish up with the latest win for the Whitecaps and a busy week ahead, the Lions are streaking now too, and the Jays and Canadians have great weekends too!

It's been a tough year for local sports media, on many fronts, and that continued this week. Blake is joined by guest host Farhan Lalji to walk down memory lane on the careers of two Vancouver media members who were lost this week, inlcuding BC sports Hall of Famer John Mckeachie. The guys share their experiences alongside the legendary sportscaster and talk about what made him so unique and special. They also talk about media in the present as play by play chair remains the same for the Vancouver Canucks going forward. The guys also debrief the recent hires and signings for the team and what it says about the club's intentions this season. The Sheet's Jeff Marek stops by to talk about the Malhotra/Celebrini training alliance last week and what it says about both players. Jeff has a great first hand scouting report on Novotny's readiness for the NHL and where he should be next season, and he also weighs in the Canucks' spending in a rebuild. Then it's BC Lions DC Mike Benevides with a look ahead to the Lions and Stamps tonight in Calgary. Benny gets into the reasons for the slow start this season, and how the leadership in the room has helped keep things in perspective. Blake and Farhan finish up with some final thoughts on the Lions health and gameplan for tonight, plus some Seahawks training camp updates from Farhan. Then it's the Whitecaps new signings and jerseys, plus, the entire baseball story as the Jays and C's are hot, the M's are not!!

Matt and Jeff Paterson discuss Quinn Hughes' future and how Canucks fans would be sweating his lack of contract extension if he were still Vancouver's player; they talk about whether the die is cast for a Hughes brothers union in New Jersey and whether they'll be at the forefront of building NBA-style super teams in the NHL.

The guys also lay out the business case for MLB in Vancouver, admit that the idea isn't as far-fetched as initially believed having done some digging and gotten to more details about a well-curated plan on behalf of Zack Ross, the Vancouver developer who is leading the bid. Matt reports where the idea originated from, that there is significant money behind the group, that MLB's labour situation is working in the bid's favour, that a stadium site has been identified and that no team name has yet been selected, that it might be a matter of public consultation and a name-the-team contest.

The guys also talk about Elias Pettersson skating at the Kings' practice facility in L.A. -- there are optics there!

Cam Robinson joins to talk Canucks practice facility, Hughes' future, Malhotra/Cootes at the World Junior summer camp and draft prospects for 2027 and 2028.

FIFA vice-president Victor Montalgnani joins to say there are groups looking at the Caps, one local, one European beyond the Arthur Griffiths-led bid. He says he remains positive the team will stay and that a number of interested groups are there provided the club gets the management contract for BC Place. Victor also wraps the summer of soccer in Vancouver after the World Cup.

They also discuss former Canucks owner Arthur Griffiths' bid for the Whitecaps, which was reported over the long weekend. Plus, Canucks prospects at the World Junior Summer Showcase.

Whitecaps CEO Axel Schuster joins to discuss a 1-1 draw with LAFC before 40K at BC Place, Thomas Muller on form, Ryan Gauld finding it, replacements for Seb Berhalter and a setback for Ranko Veselinović. Schuster says 90 groups have kicked the clubs tires, that he does talk to Griffiths, that a new owner would have to be committed to the community and a timeline for action. He's also asked if the club is interested in buying BC Place.

Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by to defend his report of the Canucks slashing payroll after GM Ryan Johnson objected last week. He talks practice facility, the confusion about whether BC Place is for sale, and whether money is a problem for a Zeev Buium contract extension.

The Canucks finally grab some headlines with news on a practice facility but is it really news? Matt and Blake take a look at the news release and if it really signals the chance for the 32nd and final practice facility in the NHL. The guys also look at all the noise around the MLB bid in Vancouver and whether it's viable and time to be taking it seriously. Harman Dayal joins from The Athletic with a further breakdown on what he's seeing with EP40 and whether there is a solution to make him more productive or at least a better asset for trade. He also talks about the value of a practice facility for the Canucks and his review of the lower cost hires around the organization. Then it's The Sheet's Jeff Marek stopping by to discuss his latest viral moment and his reaction to the dream of a Bedard-Celebrini reunion as Canucks someday. He also talks about Cootes and Malhotra's chances to be 1-2 centres at the World Juniors, and the change to NHL games streaming in the playoffs. Matt and Blake finish up with more on a possible BC Place takeover by the local teams, plus, the Whitecaps sign a player and prepare for a huge one vs LAFC. The BC Lions need a win in Winnipeg, and the Jays are about to make a bunch of trades!

Hockey news is back on the front burner as North Van's Macklin Celebrini signs with the Sharks for the highest cap hit in NHL history. Matt and Blake take a look at the deal for the local boy and what it means for his possible free agency in 6 years time. The guys debate whether he or Conor Bedard will ever don a Canucks uniform. The guys also dive into the newly announced Amazon Prime NHL deal that will see the streamer get a few playoff series. The guys get into the impacts for the consumer after seeing the Prime product this season. The Daily Hive's Rob Williams stops by to discuss the possibility of the local superstars uniting in Vancouver one day. He gets into the 2 Canucks prospects getting big roles at the Canadian Junior Summer Showcase, and what the latest Canucks' marketing campaign may say about the team's plans and priorities with certain players. They also bounced the future of BC Place off of each other as the concept of privatization continues to float around. Then, it's MLB.com's Keegan Matheson with the lowdown on what has gone terribly wrong for the Jays this season and what might be their path out of it for next year. He gets into trade scenarios for the current Jays roster and maybe even some player acquisition if the fit is right. The guys wrap up the show with a preview of the Whitecaps this weekend as Berhalter says goodbye, the BC Lions prep for a new QB tomorrow, and the NBA is back for another game this fall!

A massive edition of Sekeres and Price to send you into the weekend.. Blake is joined by Jeff Paterson as the guys tackle a bunch of big news, including the most recent re-shuffle in the Canucks front office as Cammi Granato moves out of her AGM role. The guys get into how the move will be interpreted, the trickledown in operations as the pro scouting department has already been thinned out, and whether the AGM role will even be re-filled. The guys also look at the birthday boy, Jonathan Lekkerimäki, and debate what the future holds for him in the organization. Then Blake and Jeff move onto the Whitecaps' possible interest in, not just running, but owning BC Place!? They talk about what that means for possible new owners, the future of the franchise, and the rest of the BC Place tenants. Then it's a chat about the movements on the pitch as the guys wonder where the Whitecaps go next, following the departure of Seb Berhalter to England. Postmedia's Patrick Johnston stops by to discuss the Canucks and Cammi Granato, and the experience that continues to be lacking in the front office. He also discusses the chat he had with BC cabinet Minister Ravi Kahlon on the Whitecaps and BC Place. PJ weighs in on how that could work and if it's financially feasible. Plus, who can replace Berhalter in the lineup? The Sheet's Jeff Marek drops by for all the other NHL news, including a new linemate for Conor Bedard, John Tortorella wanting back in, and former Canucks frontrunner Evan Gold is finding a new front office home. The guys wrap up with a look at the BC Lions returning to BC Place to face the Argos, the Jays are getting ready to trade everyone, and Lebron James has made his decision!

Matt and guest co-host Jeff Paterson discuss the wisdom of signing Zeev Buium to a long-term deal or whether it's best to wait. They take on the confusion (guilty!) of the Canucks schedule and when games actually start given BC's shift to permanent daylight savings time, the later Saturday night starts and other scheduling quirks. Jeff weighs in on the new hires of Ryan Papaioaanu on the Abby bench and Alex Edler in player development. The guys also discuss remaining RFAs and Nils Åman's tenure with the Canucks.

Cam Robinson joins to talk about the new hires, player development and says he's a big fan of Papaioaanu and new asst coach Ryan Mougenel. He talks about the shrinking Canucks budget, Buium's next contract, Braeden Cootes' next steps, the great draft talent on display at next month's Hlinka.

BC Lions president Duane Vienneau stops by for a welcome home. Lions play first game at BC Place Saturday since Nov. 1 last year. Duane talks about the Touchdown Kelowna experience, the upcoming pool party on Robson and how a pedestrian mall Granville St would be awesome for a future Grey Cup.

The boys are back after an historic weekend in sport, so a jam packed Monday show as usual! Matt and Blake further dissect the Canucks schedule and get into the virtual end of 7 PM starts in Vancouver. The guys also look at the coaching hires at the NHL and AHL level and take a look at the common criticisms of the hires so far. Former Canuck Frank Corrado stops by to talk some mid-summer hockey and some swirling rumours. Frank talks about his favourite landing spot for EP40, and what Shane Wright could provide if the Canucks are able to make a deal. Corrado lauds Alex Edler as his former teammate is back with the Canucks in a developmental role, plus, Frank's thoughts on a Bedard homecoming and his experiences with the sleep science. On that note, the guys welcome in for Canucks consultant Pat Byrne, the "sleep Doctor", to discuss the impact of the Canucks' schedule for next season: the challenges of the road trips, the change in start times for home games, and the possible pros and cons of a young roster being tasked with the rigours of the schedule. The boys finish up with a look at the World Cup final and the legacy left behind in Vancouver. Then it's an update on the Whitecaps and Lions, the Mariners and Jays scuffle along, and the Open Championship finds itself a speedy, blue collar winner!

Matt and Blake are back and with plenty to talk about after a few days off, a World Cup in the home stretch, and the Canucks finally hiring some assistants alongside Manny Malhotra on the bench. The guys debate the quality of the hires and whether the club's newfound fiscal responsibility is set to pose an issue with their player development. The guys also drill down on some of the trade rumours that still persist around the Canucks. Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by for a chat on the diminishing sports media options for fans in Western Canada, in the wake of the Rogers closings, and his recent chats with monopoly watchdogs. PJ also tackles the Canucks apparent budgetary critiques, and the needs for still more hirings before the summer is through. Jeff Paterson also joins with thoughts on the staffing of the Canucks and whether successful development can still be acheived with coaches that have less experience. JPat also talks about the next possible trade for the Canucks, Hronek or EP40's availablility, and whether Shane Wright is worthwhile target. The guys wrap up with a look ahead to the World Cup semifinals, the Whitecaps prepping for leg 2 vs Cavalry, the BC Lions make a hire, and 2 close calls for Canadian golfers on the weekend.
