Sept 29, 2026: Canucks Season Begins! The Crossover part 2

And so it begins! The Canucks hit the ice as the NHL season kicks off and Matt and Blake are here to have you all ready! The guys debate what the absolute top end of this team may be, and could the bottom end be any worse than last year?? The guys look at the likely lineup for the Canucks and the surprises that be in store down the middle. The Crossover is back with Donnie and Dhali joining to discuss another start to the season and how this one may be different than any other before it. The guys talk about the differing trajectories and expectations for the young players, and the possible roster churn as the season unfolds. Cam Robinson drops by from Elite Prospects to give us his final preseason breakdown on the Canucks fate this year. He talks about the acquisition of Meriläinen and his high pedigree as a young player. Plus, Cam looks at the amazing start for Novotny in the OHL and where that could launch him for next season, and the early season schedule being kind to Caleb Malhotra's transition from the CHL to NCAA. Matt and Blake finish up with the news of Müller's extension with the Whitecaps, the wrap on the NFL and CFL week, plus the baseball playoffs begin!
