Sekeres & Price Show
March 5 2024 - Gary Mason & John Shannon
Deadline Day minus 3! The trade targets are coming fast and furious for the Canucks, and around the league, and today Matt and Blake wonder how far the team is ready to go before Friday. Is there a player that would peel free Jonathan Lekkerimäki? Or Tom Willander?” Or even a soon-to-be 20-goal scorer in Nils Höglander?
The Globe and Mail’s Gary Mason stops by for a walk down memory lane on the last time the Canucks were in this position, plus after years of losing, is ownership pushing an aggressive deadline week?
John Shannon has his take on the trade pace around the league, and gives us his player choice for the Canucks to acquire before the end of the week.
All that, plus a crazy day of moves around the NFL as well! Presented by Applewood Auto Group.
