As the Canucks wrap up their Young Stars Classic, we take a quick look at which players have impressed on the ice, and which players might have a shot at main camp later this week.

We also touch on the Mike Babcock situation, and I answer all of the viewers' questions.

Most of the Canucks top prospects have gathered in Penticton for the Young Stars Classic taking place this weekend. We take a look at who might stand out.

Many industry insiders including Rick Dhaliwal and Elliotte Friedman are reporting that Quinn Hughes is likely to be named as the next captain of the Vancouver Canucks. I talked about why this is the best decision for the Canucks.

As well, I recap my weekend in Kelowna and we work in some AMA.

The Canucks are going to need contributions from players not named Elias Pettersson, Quinn Hughes, JT Miller, and Thatcher Demko.

Who else on the Canucks has to have a big season for the team to succeed?

Canucks players are making their way back into town and are starting to skate together. What's your mood as we are two weeks away from Young Stars and three weeks away from training camp?

We also talk about Elias Pettersson, and the possibility of the Pacific Division taking more playoff berths than the Central Division.

As we look ahead to training camp and preseason games, I look at what I think will be the 5 biggest stories for the club throughout the month of September.

Have a listen and see if you agree with me!

This is the first episode of season 2 of this podcast; thanks for being a loyal listener!

We're flipping the calendar to September and that means that Canucks hockey is around the corner....finally!

In today's show, I look at Ilya Mikheyev's potential delay to the start of the season, as well as Rick Tocchet's comments on captaincy and the lack of a practice arena.

This show is dedicated to long time subscriber and member Robert Rosenburg (nucksfan29) who passed away last week. Rest In Peace, Robert.

Which of our new players will have the biggest impact on the Canucks' on-ice fortunes this season?

I build cases for Ian Cole, Carson Soucy, Pius Suter, and Teddy Blueger.

Elias Pettersson made a lot of Canucks fans nervous with his comments to Elliotte Friedman about not wanting to sign a contract extension right away.

The Canucks are much deeper at forward this year so that means they have options for the top line.

Which winger should join Elias Pettersson and Andrei Kuzmenko?

I make a case for and against Ilya Mikheyev, Anthony Beauvillier, and Brock Boeser.
