James Butler and his 1,000-plus rushing yards visit the Go Goat Studio to look forward to Sunday's CFL semi-final at B.C. Place. The Lions have a good running game this year, and they'll need it with an ailing starting quarterback and potential road games in Winnipeg and Regina if they get through the Stampeders.

Are the playoffs already a lost cause?

Jeff Paterson and Patrick Johnston stop by to discuss the Canucks' 0-5-2 start and whether they've once again lost the plot before the season's first month comes to an end!

After a 6th straight defeat, the guys discuss whether the Canucks should finally rebuild. Other topics include the injury to Quinn Hughes and how much that will affect the team, the combustible week for J.T. Miller, whether this Canucks core is the right mix, and if Bruce Boudreau getting his 600th coaching win will be his last.

John Shannon stops by and reminds us that Canucks PoHo is a patient man. John wonders what another tough season will mean for Bo Horvat, given that he's not under contract for next season, and whether Rutherford, 73, would want to participate in a long rebuild.

Jeff Paterson does the math on the hole the Canucks have dug and what it will take to get back in the postseason race, let alone make the playoffs.

And Rick Dhaliwal tells us that the Canucks will be patient with head coach Bruce Boudreau, and that ownership will have a say on whether or not to make a change, because it is already paying Travis Green not to coach.
