Jan 9, 2026: Historically worst Canucks? Leafs up next

After another mind-numbing Canucks loss last night, Matt and Blake are forced to look into historic comparisons of Canuck ineptitude. The guys debate just how low they can go, and what that will mean to the fanbase, the owner and the team. The guys relay the latest trade rumours and possibilities for Vancouver, including a familiar name that was previously of interest for the Canucks. RinkWide's Jeff Paterson is back to recap the awfulness from Detroit, and to chat about where this season ranks all time. JPat also talks about the sagging performance of the vets like Boeser and Marcus Pettersson, and the need to move on soon for Sherwood and maybe even DeBrusk. The Sheet's Jeff Marek makes his 2026 debut and the boys go deep on a variety of issues from the Olympic ice surface to World Jrs to the Ottawa Senators off ice soap opera. Marek also talks about any Sherwood interest from the Wings and they get into trivia on active franchise goal leaders. In the final segment, Matt and Blake take a look at the drama on and off the field in college football, the possibility of snow games in the NFL playoffs, and we have a leaked look at what the Canadian men will look like at the summer's World Cup!
