Patrick Johnston pays his weekly visit, and he is “not” buying into any moral victories after the performance in Colorado. He also has a breakdown of the struggling Canucks power play, players in the wrong places, and how that might have changed their fortunes in the past week.

Matt and Blake discuss a 4-1 win against Detroit, a two-goal game for Elias Lindholm and his Canucks future as a centre, according to head coach Rick Tocchet. They talk about how much fun it is watching the Canucks these days (most fun ever?) and the team's growing lead atop the NHL standings. They talk Nikita Zadorov's honour and honesty, his fun doing the Griddy dance back at Jake Walman, Thatcher Demko's brilliance and attempt at goal, Nils Höglander moving on up to PP2, and where Phil Kessel fits when (if?) he's signed. Frank Seravalli explains the Canucks' plans for Phil Kessel and how, if he works out, the team might be done adding forwards and will focus attention on defence. He tells us what others around the NHL are saying about the league-leading Canucks, extols the virtues of Tocchet and says he'll be a magnet for free agents, and goes through the Pittsburgh Penguins' conundrum including an injury to deadline target Jake Guentzel and Sidney Crosby's future. Jeff Paterson, the host of Rink Wide: Vancouver, talks about the win over the Red Wings, the goaltender showdown Saturday against the Jets, the plight of Ilya Mikheyev, the plans for Kessel, Brock Boeser's slump, and how the penalty-killing is now...wait for it...good!

Matt and Blake discuss Dakota Joshua's injury and whether it was worth fighting in Chicago just as he and that line were peaking. Ilya Mikheyev is the beneficiary of Joshua missing Thursday's home game, can he exit his 22-game slump and does he have to show something, or risk being traded, before the March 8 deadline? The guys talk about Phil Kessel's fitness level and fit, whether the Canucks should risk losing a player on waivers to add him to the NHL roster, and about retribution/vengeance with the Wings after the Nikita Zadorov hit on Lucas Raymond and Jake Walman's *Griddy* celebration. Patrick Johnston joins and talks about his article with Jim Rutherford and the Canucks seeking depth. Patrick talks about Kessel's future with the Canucks, that fantastic third line and Joshua, the pursuit of Chris Tanev, Jake Guentzel getting injured, and bad blood with the Wings. Rob Williams tells us why Costco was trending in Vancouver upon the Kessel news, compares Kessel to the Mats Sundin signing of 2009, wonders who he would play, and explains how he got an exclusive interview with Mark Messier, who says he was brought to captain a Canucks' (ahem) "rebuild."

John Shannon joins and talks "The Code." He reveals that he has a leather-bound copy of the code, talks about the Detroit-Vancouver rematch Thursday, how he wasn't bothered by Ridley Greig's slapshot into an empty net, and how retribution often puts a team at a competitive disadvantage.
