8 straight losses for the Canucks after the latest defeat in Ottawa, so Matt and Blake look at what continues to plague the team, and the broadening fallout of their recent play. The guys bring in Postmedia's Patrick Johnston to talk about Jim Rutherford's comments to him about "everyone" potentially being available for trade and the ever changing definition of what "rebuild" means in Vancouver. The guys also look at the improved play of Elias Pettersson and whether that's a sign that the team should keep him or explore a trade as the market improves. Then it's former Canucks exec. Laurence Gilman dropping by to discuss his new role with the Columbus Blue Jackets. LG gets into the details of the gig, the role of culture on NHL team, and Kent Johnson's possible turnaround this season. Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects also stops by to chat about the NHL trade market and the interest in additions from Jersey to MSG to Carolina. Cam jumps into the latest draft projections too and on the ascension of Stenberg to Number 1. Plus, he looks at two centres who may or may not have a shot at cracking the top 3. All that, plus Matt and Blake check in on the Whitecaps before they leave for Spain, the Seahawks/49ers injury report and the CFL abolishes the tie?!
