The Canucks continue their eight-game homestand with a tough matchup against the Washington Capitals, a team Drance calls an elite puck-movement group and a nightmare stylistic fit for Vancouver. The guys question why Thatcher Demko would even start in this spot, calling the situation confusing given the standings and long-term priorities. There’s also discussion around lineup flexibility, due diligence on prospects like Verhoff and Chase Reid, plus reaction to Adam Foote’s comments and the latest betting odds.
