Sekeres & Price Show

July 4 2024 - Patrick Johnston & Rob Williams

Ep. 859

We’re having leftovers today on Sekeres and Price, as Matt and Blake take a look at the players that remain unsigned in the NHL and look for any that may fit the bill for what the Canucks are missing. Most specifically, a puck-moving defenceman but perhaps a scorer as well.


The Province’s Patrick Johnston stops by for his review on the week that was for the Canucks, and talks about his picks for continued improvement for the Canucks.


Then the Daily Hive’s Rob Williams chimes in with his view on the NHL’s busy summer calendar, plus how the market has responded to the Canucks signings, and who might be fan favourites in 24-25. All that, plus a review of a huge win on the road for the Whitecaps, and another edition of The Golf Report!

  • 904. Oct 3, 2024: Injuries, Canucks' cap and the camp kids

    02:03:30||Ep. 904
    With just one day left before the final preseason tuneup, the Canucks deal with a multitude of roster machinations. With some big injuries, some nagging ones, and a few young Canucks making a push, Matt and Blake take a look at how it could all shake down. TSN's Frank Corrado stops by to share his tenuous experiences of this time of year, with a new quote from Willie Desjardins. Plus, Frank gets into the Canucks roster decisions both on the forward lines and defence pairings and whether they should "spread the wealth". Then it's The Daily Hive's Rob Williams with his take on the "boring" preseason and what the lack of star power in the games might mean for the regular season. Also, Rob reports on the falling ticket prices for the home opener, as seats remain available. All that, plus a recap of the Whitecaps stinker vs. the Sounders, and the Lions looking to avoid another one of those themselves vs the Stamps.(14:04) Tocchet on Räty progress(17:44) Arshdeep Bains continuing to make strides(24:22) Teddy Blueger on getting back into games(51:20) Frank Corrado of TSN and former Canuck joins the guys to talk about the upcoming opening night!(73:05) #hashtags#(89:42) Rob Williams, National Sports Editor at Daily Hive chats with Matt and Blake(105:35) Final thoughts from Matt and Blake/ sekeresandprice/ sekeresandprice/ sekeresprice/ sekeresandpricelive@sekeresandprice.com778-402-9680Thank you to our great sponsors:bet365 | http://www.bet365.ca/Great Clips | https://lnk.to/SPGreatClipsGRETA Bar Vancouver | https://lnk.to/GRETAYVRVancouver Canadians | https://lnk.to/SPVanCYellow Dog Brewing | https://lnk.to/YDBrewingFollow host Matt Sekeres | / mattsekeresFollow host Blake Price | / justblakepriceFollow our Canucks reporter Jeff Paterson | / patersonjeffWatch @rinkwidevancouver for LIVE POST-GAME showsVisit @Canucks_Army for the latest on the Canuckshttps://www.sekeresandprice.com/https://www.rinkwidevancouver.comhttps://canucksarmy.com/Powered by The Nation Network.

  • 903. Oct 2, 2024: Lineup logistics for the Canucks and a goalie is gone as Game 1 nears

    02:00:53||Ep. 903
    The Canucks finally practiced as a single group and showed some new lines and pairings, so Matt and Blake take a look at what could be the opening night lineup. The Canucks also lost a player on waivers, so what does that mean for the start of the year? Patrick Johnston of The Province stops by to talk about what he sees as the best way for the Canucks to lineup on offence and defence, on Miller skipping most of the preseason, and what surprises might still come before opening night. Then it's Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects with his look at a fabulous camp for the Canucks cupboard of youngsters, and who could see action with the big club as early as this season, and how Aatu Räty has improved his play to put himself back on the radar. All that, plus a preview of the Whitecaps-Sounders, the CMNT roster drops, and a BC Lions health check!(54:20) Patrick Johnston(71:40) #hashtags#(89:50) Cam Robinson(108:32) Final thoughts from Matt and Blake/ sekeresandprice/ sekeresandprice/ sekeresprice/ sekeresandpricelive@sekeresandprice.com778-402-9680Thank you to our great sponsors:bet365 | http://www.bet365.ca/Great Clips | https://lnk.to/SPGreatClipsGRETA Bar Vancouver | https://lnk.to/GRETAYVRVancouver Canadians | https://lnk.to/SPVanCYellow Dog Brewing | https://lnk.to/YDBrewingFollow host Matt Sekeres | / mattsekeresFollow host Blake Price | / justblakepriceFollow our Canucks reporter Jeff Paterson | / patersonjeffWatch @rinkwidevancouver for LIVE POST-GAME showsVisit @Canucks_Army for the latest on the Canuckshttps://www.sekeresandprice.com/https://www.rinkwidevancouver.comhttps://canucksarmy.com/Powered by The Nation Network.

    01:58:17||Ep. 902
    As the Canucks get set for their final preseason game on Friday, the roster is taking shape following the most recent round of cuts. Matt and Blake take a look at who's making a case and who's in trouble, plus where's JT Miller? Well, The Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalii provides the details on Miller and the rest of the Canucks question marks, as the regular season begins to get closer. Plus, Frank has the latest goalie news here with Demko, and on the soap opera in Boston as Jeremy Swayman attempts to get a deal in time to start the year. Then it's RinkWide's Jeff Paterson with a recap on the night that was for the Canucks in Edmonton, and his report cards on the few players who had something on the line. Not to mention, JPat mentions a jewel in the rough that the Canucks have to be excited about.

  • 900. Sept 26, 2024: DeBrusk and Daniel dazzle, Canucks rolling in preseason

    02:01:23||Ep. 900
    After another highlight filled preseason win, this time over the Flames, the Canucks are ticking a lot of boxes before the real games begin. Matt and Blake go over the individual performances of note and how it might impact the opening night roster. Plus, can any of these dazzling performances be repeated before game 1? Patrick Johnston of The Province stops by to detail his day with the "other" Canucks, as he was out with Rick Tocchet at UBC yesterday, chatting with the coach and the guys who didn't play last night, like JT Miller and Brock Boeser. Tocchet gave PJ a little insight into who's impressed him, and a personal sports career that we hadn't yet heard about from the bench boss. Then Rob Williams joins from the Daily HIve with a full slate of topics, including a detailed update on the status of new seats at Rogers Arena, the Canucks changing beer brands at the rink, and the new face of intermissions on Canucks television broadcasts. All that, plus a look back at a championship night for the Whitecaps over TFC, and the Lions final preps before the Tiger-Cats!(54:40) Patrick Johnston of the Province and Post Media makes his weekly check in to talk Canucks… and a lot more!(77:45) #Hashtags#(91:09) Rob Williams from the Daily Hive joins us today to talk about training camp and the Canucks season ahead.(109:27) Final thoughts from Matt and Blake. / sekeresandprice/ sekeresandprice/ sekeresandprice/ sekeresprice/ sekeresandprice📧 live@sekeresandprice.com📲 778-402-9680Thank you to our great sponsors:bet365 | http://www.bet365.ca/GRETA Bar Vancouver | https://lnk.to/GRETAYVRVancouver Canadians | https://lnk.to/SPVanCYellow Dog Brewing | https://lnk.to/YDBrewingMr. Lube l https://www.mrlube.com/Follow host Matt Sekeres | / mattsekeresFollow host Blake Price | / justblakepriceFollow our Canucks reporter Jeff Paterson | / patersonjeffWatch @rinkwidevancouver for LIVE POST-GAME showsVisit @Canucks_Army for the latest on the Canuckshttps://www.sekeresandprice.com/https://www.rinkwidevancouver.comhttps://canucksarmy.com/Powered by The Nation Network.

    01:48:38||Ep. 899
    Another preseason gameday for the Canucks as they run it back with the kids vs the Flames. Matt and Blake recap game 1 vs the Kraken but also look ahead to this one in Abbotsford as Quinn Hughes, Jake DeBrusk and EP40 make their debuts. They also wonder aloud if guys like Räty or Lekkerimäki can keep up their good play and actually make the roster. John Shannon stops by for his weekly visiti and weighs in on the roster machinations that are possible for the Canucks, both at forward and in goal. Plus, he uses his decades of experience in the broadcasting business to talk about the importance of the Amazon reality show "Faceoff:Inside the NHL". Then it's time for the analysis and storytelling of TSN's Frank Corrado, who talks about the unpredictability of a young player trying to make the NHL in preseason and the differences between Räty and Lekkerimäki's bids this year. Plenty more as well, including Caps vs TFC and the Lions preparing for Hamilton!/ sekeresandprice/ sekeresandprice/ sekeresprice/ sekeresandprice📧 live@sekeresandprice.com📲 778-402-9680Thank you to our great sponsors:bet365 | http://www.bet365.ca/GRETA Bar Vancouver | https://lnk.to/GRETAYVRVancouver Canadians | https://lnk.to/SPVanCVancouver Whitecaps l https://www.ticketmaster.ca/telus-canadian-championship-final-vancouver-whitecaps-vancouver-british-columbia-09-25-2024/event/110060C6CAB63759?did=wfcYellow Dog Brewing | https://lnk.to/YDBrewingMr. Lube l https://www.mrlube.com/Follow host Matt Sekeres | / mattsekeresFollow host Blake Price | / justblakepriceFollow our Canucks reporter Jeff Paterson | / patersonjeffWatch @rinkwidevancouver for LIVE POST-GAME showsVisit @Canucks_Army for the latest on the Canuckshttps://www.sekeresandprice.com/https://www.rinkwidevancouver.comhttps://canucksarmy.com/Powered by The Nation Network.

Plus, the guys debate who might get more action this season in the crease, Šilovs or Lankinen? Former NHL goalie Chris Mason stops by from the Preds broadcast booth to discuss the Canucks goalies as well, and give a scouting report on Kevin Lankinen after watching all his games in Nashville. He also weighs in on what Kiefer Sherwood can bring to the team after changing his game to suit the NHL. Then it's Cam Robison from Elite Prospects to discuss whether Lekkerimäki or Räty can earn a spot on opening night, and if Nils Höglander can consistently find himself in the top 6 this season.

Rinkwide's Jeff Paterson is back from Penticton, and has a full post game report from Sunday, and also looks at who's likely to impress as they move into the preseason games, including names like Sprong, Blais and the veteran stars.
