    Another loss, another perplexing decision by the Canucks organization, another big show for Matt and Blake! The guys get into what was another disastrous performance for the Canucks vs the Flames, particularly in goal, and despite a 2 point night for EP40.

    01:55:02||Ep. 1960
    A loss for the Canucks but an addition for the show as the boys are back together! Matt and Blake look at an interesting night for the Canucks future as Buium and Willander show some moxy on a tough night for the goal scorers. The guys debate whether either young blueliner is a future leader on the team, and if so, whether that needs to be made official as early as this offseason. The guys also delve further into the contents of the Canucks letter to season ticket holders and whether fans will continue to pay the price to see the re-build, plus they each run down the top 3 things they would love the organization to do this off season. The Sheet's Jeff Marek joins the show to talk about the upcoming offseason for the Canucks and his own reaction to the letter. He looks at the stable of the Canucks young talent and evakuates where they are in the progression and how long it can take, and gives us an update on young players in the OHL including Medvedev, Patterson and Chiariot.. Then it's Jeff Paterson of RinkWide with this post game recap of what happened vs the Kings and how he sees the temperment of Buium and Willander serving them going forward. JPat also talks about the weight of the losses, the neverending 8 game homestand finally concluding, and will deployment change once Kane reaches 1000 games? Matt and Blake finish up with an update on World Cup qualifying after the first round of games during final qualifiers, inlcuding the possible future foes for Canada. The guys also look at opening day in the majors for the Mariners and Blue Jays, plus a huge weekend game for the Goldeneyes!Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: Download the app today and use promo code: NATION | http://www.bet365.ca/GRETA Bar Vancouver | https://lnk.to/GRETAYVRYellow Dog Brewing | https://lnk.to/YDBrewingPizza Pizza: https://www.pizzapizza.ca/Pacific Toyota Dealers: https://www.shoptoyota.ca/Get an exclusive 15% discount on Saily data plans!
