Sept 30, 2026: Canucks win season opening thriller! Cotter's possibilities

Well that was something?! Matt and Blake have no shortage of topics after a thrilling rollercoaster ride with the Canucks last night in Edmonton. The guys get into the surprising contributions of Cotter and Sasson, plus the promise shown by guys like EP40 and Lekkerimäki. They debate the possibility of these games happening again this season, and whether the good vibes in the dressing room are real or merely customary early season rhetoric. TSN's Frank Corrado stops by with his review of what happened vs the Oilers, including the netminding performances at both ends. Frank talks about what he's seen previously from Cotter, plus, Frank's experience watching new goalie Leevi Meriläinen during his time with the Sens. The Daily Hive's Rob Williams drops by with his take on fan reaction to an early, impressive win and whether anyone thinks changes the direction of the team just yet. Rob talks about the rather large group of alternate captains that the Canucks have chosen for the season and the team's overall "likeability". Matt and Blake finish up with the latest on the Whitecaps' new deal with BC Place, the BC Lions celebrate their longest serving executive, and the Blue Jays promise to be great next season
