June 5, 2026: Adding to the Canucks staff, Mock drafts, and trades aplenty?

As the dust settles on another busy Canucks week, Blake and Jeff dive into the future of Manny Malhotra's Canucks and how much success the new head coach will be allowed to see. The guys dive into the rumoured new hire in the front office and compare it to others that are taking shape around the NHL. Plus, trade rumours begin as a star player asks out in Detroit, mock drafts begin, and the Cup Final heats up! The Sheet's Jeff Marek joins the guys from the draft combine in Buffalo for the latest rumblings about which teams like which players. Marek gets into the tradition of team dinner dates with prospects, and some of the wild stories of years gone by. He also has his take on the trade rumours and on Manny Malhotra's opening week in Vancouver. Then it's The Daily Hive's Rob Williams with his review of the Canucks news of the week, the future of the Canucks' captaincy and that of Elias Pettersson. He also gets into the latest World Cup prep around town. Then the guys finish up with a peek at the Canadian men getting set for one final WC tuneup vs Ireland, the Whitecaps stadium situation is updated by the MLS commish, and a pair of former Vancouver Canadians are on the move and making news!
