Mike is pleased to be joined by Niq Velji (@NiqhilVelji) to discuss the Canucks new acquisition, Elias Lindholm. Massive news for a team with Stanley Cup aspirations and how getting ahead of the market will pay huge dividends. Are the Canucks done tweaking their roster? Are they legit Stanley Cup contenders? Listen for answers and insights to all things Canucks!

Mike and Darren catchup after a long break and discuss if the Canucks are legit contenders, Jonathan Lekkerimäki and the World Juniors, and the EP40 contract

In this episode, Mike and Darren discuss the Canucks wonderful 6-2-1 start. Is this team for real? Is regression coming? They dissect the start, the numbers, and their assessment of the roster and coaching staff with a new-found tone of optimism and hope!

Mike and Darren are stoked to be joined by Sportsnet650's Bik Nizzar to talk about Conor Garland, Ilya Mikheyev, player point projections and of course, will the Canucks make the playoffs? 

With the new season a mere week away, Mike and Darren talk about their takeaways from the Canucks pre-season, the Pearson/De Smith trade, Quinn Hughes as captain and much, much more. Is it too early to call Vasiliy Podkolzin a bust? Who's impressed in camp and pre-season? Tune in to hear our thoughts!

Mike and Darren discuss the NHL Entry Draft where the Canucks selected 7 players, including Swedish Defenseman Tom Willander 11th overall. How did we like the Canucks picks? We also discuss the Canucks signing Carson Soucy, Ian Cole and Teddy Blueger.  Let's just say we aren't pissed, and that's a nice change!

Mike and Darren talk about the big OEL buyout and what it means for the Canucks in 2023 and beyond.

Mike and Darren are thrilled to be joined by the "AMAZING" Jeff Paterson in our year end Canucks episode. Jeff details the Canucks season, his expectations for the team going forward, his thoughts on the perception (from few fans) that the Canucks media is too negative and his very Canucks friendly Stanley Cup Finals prediction (please detect the sarcasm here...)! You can follow Jeff on Twitter at @patersonjeff and listen to his Rink Wide Podcast (@rinkwideVAN) as well as read his Canucks news at The Hockey News (thehockeynews.com). 

On this episode Mike and Darren sigh a lot because the Canucks are a complete and utter disaster. Join us as we have a super positive and happy chat about the Canucks!

Mike and Darren discuss the big Bo Horvat trade and look ahead to some other names that might be moved.

Mike and Darren are thrilled to have Patrick Johnston from The Province on to discuss the Bruce Boudreau fiasco. Did the organization handle this poorly? Who's to blame? How did we get to this point?
