The guys break down a quiet, low-energy night at Rogers Arena and what it says about a fanbase that’s burnt out and out of belief. Jannik Hansen joins to discuss why someone is getting traded, whether moving Quinn Hughes now even makes sense, and why the Canucks are nowhere close to a two-year turnaround. With trade rumours heating up, front-office uncertainty looming, and the team sitting 32nd by points percentage, the direction of the franchise has never felt murkier. The episode asks a simple question: what are the Canucks actually selling... wins, hope, or nothing at all?

The guys recap a noticeably flat night at Rogers Arena, where a quiet crowd and low-energy play overshadowed the Canucks’ territorial advantage. With Vancouver slipping back to 32nd in the league by points percentage, trade rumours continue to swirl especially around what a potential deal with Detroit could look like, with Drance singling out Edvinsson as the piece to target. They also touch on Demko being ready to return against Buffalo and what that means for the upcoming stretch. Despite the muted atmosphere, the team’s long-term questions only feel louder.

Landon Ferraro joins the show to highlight a strong night from the young Canucks, praising Raty, Karlsson, and Bain while projecting Karlsson as a dependable third-line NHLer who has clearly benefited from working with the Sedins. The guys shift to Tom Willander’s development, his speed, instincts, and the mental adjustment rookies face, while questioning how trades might finally open up ice time for Vancouver’s younger players. With Höglander set to return and center depth stretched thin, the crew breaks down lineup decisions, Hughes’ playful “Fitzy” moment, and why Ferraro expects trade chatter to intensify even further. They close by examining Vancouver’s goaltending situation, whether Tolopilo deserves a longer run, and why the Hughes trade, if it ever happens, must net the best assets available.

The guys break down the newest wave of Quinn Hughes trade rumours, with Jamie insisting that “something has changed” between the star defenceman and the Canucks, while Drance cautiously agrees but won’t rubber-stamp it yet. Even with nothing imminent, reports of the Devils calling, and the possibility of multiple teams entering the mix, spark talk of a potential bidding war. They unpack Elliotte Friedman’s line that “nobody wants to talk about this,” which Jamie reads as a sign that a trade may truly be on the horizon, even if everyone should still take the noise with a grain of salt. The show wraps with a look ahead to tonight’s matchup and the betting odds.
