In this episode, I’m joined by Jeff Paterson, host of the Canucks post-game show RinkWide Vancouver and senior writer at Canucks Army. Jeff and I talk about why the Canucks are struggling to find success on home ice this season, Filip Hronek’s injury and the team’s defensive concerns, Nils Höglander’s slump and whether Patrik Allvin and Jim Rutherford might consider a trade, and possible line combinations for Elias Pettersson once J.T. Miller returns—including whether rookie Jonathan Lekkerimäki could be a fit. Thanks for listening, everyone!

In this episode, I talk about what’s really going on with Nils Höglander—does Rick Tocchet have it out for him? I also cover the Canucks’ need for defensive depth, Quinn Hughes’ Hart Trophy potential, and whether Cole Sillinger could be joining the team. On top of that, I share what I’ve learned since starting the nuckhead YouTube channel, discuss Tyler Myers’ basketball skills, and question if Thatcher Demko and Kevin Lankinen are the NHL’s top goalie duo.

I also explore whether Noah Juulsen is ready to level up, debate who’s the real best defenceman—Quinn Hughes or Cale Makar—and share my thoughts on Conor Garland and the J.T. Miller “situation.”

Oh, and I can't wait to see “Daddy Mäki" make "the mesh go smacky smacky" on a regular basis.

In this episode, I have a quick chat with Canucks Army writer and ⁠Canucks Conversation⁠ co-host, David Quadrelli. Can Kiefer Sherwood become the first player in NHL history to surpass 400 hits in a single season—or even 500?! Is it safe to say Elias Pettersson is officially “back”? And are Nils Höglander’s days with the Canucks numbered? Hope you’re all having a great week! Don’t miss Canucks Convo, live on YouTube and X every weekday at 2 PM PT!

In this episode, I sit down with Dave Hall, a writer for ⁠Canucks Army⁠ who covers every prospect in the Vancouver Canucks’ system. We dive into a range of players, from the well-known (Jonathan Lekkerimäki, Tom Willander, and Elias Pettersson) to the nearly unheard of (Ty Mueller, Aku Koskenvuo, and Sawyer Mynio). We also chat about the lost art of the blue-line slap shot that once had penalty killers ducking for cover—think Sami Salo, Zdeno Chara, and Shea Weber.

But before any of that, I start off by airing my frustration with Los Angeles Kings forward Tanner Jeannot and his gutless, illegal check to the head of Brock Boeser.

Thanks for tuning in, everyone!

In this episode, I chat with Canucks Central and Canucks game host Satiar Shah. We share our thoughts on the Vancouver Canucks’ first ten games of the season and discuss whether they’re showing signs of being true Stanley Cup contenders or not. I ask Satiar for the latest scoop on when we might see Thatcher Demko back on the ice, and where he expects Dakota Joshua to slot into the Canucks’ lineup when he's back from injury. We also take a moment to give the vastly underrated Teddy Blueger his due and explore the chances of seeing Jonathan Lekkerimäki in the lineup this year. We dig into the building trade buzz around the team and analyze which defenders might be on the Canucks’ radar. Could it be Bowen Byram? Dante Fabbro? Damon Severson? Jakob Chychrun? And, of course, I had to get Satiar’s take on what might be going on with Vancouver’s superstar center, Elias Pettersson.

But that’s just the tip of the iceberg! There’s plenty more, so give it a full listen, follow Satiar Shah on X, and be sure to tune into Canucks Central on weekdays from 4 to 6 p.m. and after every Canucks game.

Thanks for listening, Nuckheads! 🫡

In this episode, I chat with Vancouver legend Clay Imoo, also known as Canuck Clay, about the Vancouver Canucks’ recent challenges. We discuss Vincent Desharnais’ inconsistent performances, Elias Pettersson’s mysterious issues affecting his play, and we even dream up our very own Canuck lineup combinations for when Dakota Joshua returns from injury. Clay also shares some of his amazing stories from his years as a Canucks superfan. Thank you so much for listening! Oh, and subscribe to Canuck Clay on YouTube. 🫡

In this episode, I chat with Carl about the Vancouver Canucks’ current three-game win streak, Elias Pettersson’s struggles (and when we think he’ll bounce back), the Quinn Hughes vs. Cale Makar debate, and the NHL's new "Global Series." Carl also ranks his top-5 Canucks of all time, and we dive into his terribly strange living situation. Hope y'all enjoy this one!

In this episode, I reconnect with fellow Canucks content creator DeanerHD to catch up on everything Vancouver Canucks. We chat about the team’s offseason acquisitions, from Vincent Desharnais to Daniel Sprong, and discuss which young guns we’d like to see called up from Abbotsford—names like Arshdeep Bains and Kirill Kudryavtsev. We also break down the Canucks’ first few games of the 2024/25 season and share our boldest predictions for tonight’s matchup against the Florida Panthers. Enjoy!
