Nov 5, 2026: Canucks gameday: Time for a win vs Jets? Lions and 'Caps preview

On today's show, Matt and Blake wonder if it just might be time for a Canucks win again. The risk of a long losing streak looms again but Leevi Meriläinen gets back in goal and the Canucks face the struggling Jets, who just ended a 9 game skid. The guys look at any other changes to the lineup as well and whether the Canucks can rise to the occasion vs a non-contender. The guys also take a deeper dive into NHL attendance, after much has been written about dips in the rebuilding markets but also the contenders like Vegas and Edmonton. Then the guys are visited by CFL Most Outstanding Defensive player Darnell Sankey. The Lions linebacker talks about what makes him tick, his mentors in life and football, and becoming the latest in a long line of celebrated Lions defenders. He also takes a look ahead to the West final in Edmonton! Then it's Whitecaps all time scoring leader Brian White, who has set numerous records over the past 2 weeks and wants to finish the regular seson strong in Montreal. White talks about wanting to host MLS Cup this year, his chemistry with Ryan Gauld, and what it's like a year after the Thomas Müller signing. Matt and Blake finish up with a further look at the Lions vs the Elks and who is healthy to go. The Seahawks make at least one change at QB, if not two, and the guys debate whether the Whitecaps would open up the roof at BC Place for a November or December home match.
