Thomas is joined by Donnie and Dhali as they talk about the Canucks making moves ahead of the Christmas roster freeze, searching for a top-four defenseman and potentially a winger to replace Boeser if an extension doesn't materialize. They question the puzzling decision to sign Hoglander to a 3x3 deal only to play him on the fourth line and dive into the frustrations of Tocchet's battles with inconsistency. Later, Thomas Drance joins for a mailbag segment, and Jason Bukala breaks down the Utah system, Ian Cole’s fit, and the overlooked importance of middle-six forwards as the Canucks face critical challenges ahead of the playoffs.
