Dan and Sat dive into the Elias Pettersson situation and brainstorm how he can get his game going. The guys discuss how it has been far from perfect for generating offence throughout the lineup but that the canucks are still leading which may be leading to the reluctance of Head Coach Rick Tocchet to make any lineup changes. Landon Ferraro then joins the show to give his take on how the Canucks can get more pucks to the net and describes how Elias Pettersson himself can turn the tide in this series.

Dan and Sat analyze the Canucks loss to Nashville in game 5 of the series. Hughes is nominated for the Norris, and should be the favourite. Canucks were the better team last night, but it doesn't matter. Nashville has the least amount of scoring chances, the defense has been good for the Canucks. Dan and Sat want to see Hughes and Miller attack more and stop over-handling the puck. Canucks have still yet to play their best game.
