Canucks Talk

On this episode of The Whiteboard, the guys react to Team USA’s overtime gold medal win over Canada, sealed by Jack Hughes and a legendary performance from Connor Hellebuyck. Despite criticism of Hockey Canada’s roster decisions, Canada largely played well but was undone by elite goaltending and a stunning Nathan MacKinnon miss that could have ended it. The panel breaks down why Canada vs. USA remains hockey’s best rivalry and why this result is ultimately great for growing the game in the United States. Plus, why the NHL must capitalize on the momentum heading into the 2028 World Cup and what the future holds for Canada’s next wave of stars.

In this edition of Canucks Talk with Thomas Drance and Landon Ferraro, Olympic hockey rolls on as Team Canada’s women open against Switzerland, with questions about whether they have the pace to match Team USA on the smaller international rink.
