January 22 2024 - John Shannon & Michael Del Zotto

Matt and Blake unpack a busy weekend for the Canucks including the win over the Leafs, Carson Soucy's latest injury, and interesting comments from president Jim Rutherford and Elias Pettersson. The guys talk about Conor Garland's incredible season, the fantastic progress of Nils Höglander, Tyler Myers getting a promotion to the top-pair with Quinn Hughes, Filip Hronek getting a chance to anchor his own pair, the coaching genius of Rick Tocchet, more details on Hughes and Co at the All-Star Game, the earth-changing changes in Junior A hockey with the merger of AJHL clubs into the BCHL, Saint Patrick Roy back in the NHL, and those pesky Edmonton Oilers who keep on winning.

John Shannon stops by with a new Canucks drinking game. We talk about Rick Tocchet's evolution, the future with Jim Rutherford now secured, the trade deadline and whether Nils Höglander should be available, the win over the Leafs, the surging Edmonton Oilers and new signing Corey Perry, and Patrick Roy back in the NHL.

Former Canuck Michael Del Zotto joins the show. Now retired, Michael catches us up on life these days. He talks about being a Canuck when Elias Pettersson and Brock Boeser joined the team, his time with John Tortorella in two NHL stops, and forecasts the Pacific Division with the Canucks shining, the Golden Knights ailing, and the Oilers doing nothing but winning.
