Locked On Canucks - Daily Podcast On The Vancouver Canucks

Justin is joined by Danielle Huntley of The Broadscast to talk Canucks/Blues, but wait! This is actually the second half of an extended conversation that begins with today's edition of The Interview on the Locked On NHL podcast, so head on over to hear Justin and Dani talk launching the show, the whirlwind of attention it's received, and why WAGs content in hockey is a great thing. Then come back for Part 2 on Canucks/Blues, Bo Horvat going HAM, Quinn Hughes dominating the post-season, and Troy Stecher rising to the occasion as he authors his legend in Canuck history.

With the Wild on the brink of elimination ahead of tonight's Game 4, Justin is joined once again by J.D. Burke (EliteProspects, TSN1040) to talk the Canucks' performance in games 2 and 3, where Pettersson got mean, Hughes was in control, Markstrom dialled in, and Brock Boeser and Troy Stecher rose to the challenge of an opponent far greater than Minnesota: the coach who doubts their abilities.

Justin was joined by The Athletic's Thomas Drance for this week's Locked On NHL one-on-one interview from Edmonton, a.k.a. the Phase 4 Western Conference Secure Zone, and it's a chat so good and insightful we thought you should hear it on Locked On Canucks as well. Thom talks life in "The Zone", as he adjusts to living in Edmonton for the next two months just like the players, and dishes on the personal thrills and professional challenges of covering an unprecedented playoff tournament.

With Game 3 set to go early in the morning on Thursday and having had a few too many margs to bring you a post-game show after Game 2, Justin returns to Tuesday's conversation with Jackson McDonald (Roxy Fever, Daily Hive Offside) for a little overtime, on a topic sure to rankle just as many listeners as its subject did in his on-ice days as a Canuck. Ryan Kesler tweeted his support of Donald Trump over the weekend, irritating many Canucks fans who were trying to like him again. Justin makes the case that Kesler's off-ice behaviour has never mattered, and even with bad politics, he's still unquestionably one of the greatest Canucks of all time.

Ahead of Tuesday's Game 2 between the Canucks and Wild, Justin catches up with Jackson McDonald (Roxy Fever, Daily Hive's Offside) to settle a bet, try and find space for Jake Virtanen and Loui Eriksson in the Vancouver lineup, and ponder the distinct lack of buzz around the Canucks as a "playoff team" among the faithful.

The Canucks get blanked 3-0 in the opening game of their Stanley Cup qualifying play-in round against the Minnesota Wild, and generally looked listless and bad in defeat. Justin breaks it all down with returning favourite J.D. Burke (Elite Prospects, TSN1040) as they talk a rather dispiriting opener, if there are any positives that can be pulled from Game 1, and the general weirdness of these playoff games in general.

With the qualifying round play-in series just two days away, Justin chats with Tony Abbott of Locked On Wild about the lengthy history between these two teams, if this counts as a real rivalry, Todd Bertuzzi's villain status in the twin cities, Judd Brackett's flip between franchises, and so much more.

The Canucks fall 4-1 to the Winnipeg Jets in their one and only tune-up game ahead of the qualifying series against Minnesota, but all the talk after the game is focussed on the guy who didn't play: Jake Virtanen. Justin argues that Travis Green has a choice ahead of him: try and ice a winning line-up to make the playoffs, or continue to try and prop up Virtanen as a tradable asset. And the choice is clear.
