It's been a pretty good summer if you are a Toronto sports fan.  Kawhi Leonard was traded to the Raptors and John Tavares was signed by the Maple Leafs.  Both are considered top athletes in their sport.

The World Series starts tonight in Boston between two of baseballs most storied franchises.  It's the second markee match-up this season and it's also a big budget series.

The Canucks are having an unexpectedly good start this season and it’s more or less on par with how they started last season.  The season starts off exciting, but the good times tend to fall by the wayside around December.  But it doesn’t have to.  If the Canucks goaltenders can continue to play at a higher than normal level, this season could stay exciting for a little bit longer.

The BC Lioins want tonight to be perfect!  They want a party, they want the crowds, and the climax of the evening would be a win over Edmonton so they can make the playoffs.  It's also the last year for Wally Buono and going out with a bang would be a great send off to a great BC Lion.

Last Night, the Vancouver Whitecaps were missing 7 players because of international duty!  And in the final half of their game, it looked like 11 more went missing.  The whitecaps lost 4-1 at home, in a game they needed.  It was as if Fright Night had moved from the PNE to BC Place!

Seattle born and raised Paul Allen died yesterday of cancer at the age of 65.  He's probably best known for his partnership with Bill Gates in the building of Microsoft.  But he was a hometown man and did a lot for his city, including giving them the gift of the Seahawks.

When Jim Benning decided to re-sign Erik Gudbranson, he said it was to have a protecter for young players, like Elias Pettersson, to develop without being picked on.  But over the weekend, Pettersson got put down hard with Gudbranson no where to be seen.  Which begs the question..."Where are the Canucks Enforcers"?

Nobody expected the Canucks to win in Tampa Bay last night...Not even the Canucks. But they did win, and it had a lot to do with surviving in the first period with the penalty kill and having the tide turn.

Last season the Golden Knights were true to the town they play in. Teams were leaving Las Vegas with the same look most gamblers have when their junkets come to an end. For other teams what happened was a lot of losing, and what stayed in Vegas was their money.

The Vancouver Canucks aren't the only local team going through a transition phase.  Next year the BC lions and the Whitecaps will join the Canucks in reorganizing and filling their rosters.
