Matt and guest co-host Jeff Paterson of Rink Wide: Vancouver muse over Elias Pettersson trades, and whether it's time to start wondering what those could look like this summer. They discuss Elias Lindholm's mediocre start as a Canuck, where he fits best in the lineup. Thatcher Demko's workload is a topic, as is new power play formations at morning skate and whether Phil Kessel is the tonic for that struggling unit. Other topics include: the game against the Penguins, interest in Brandon Duhaime or players like him and whether they need one for the playoffs; the Dallas Star gaining cap space as a team to watch before the deadline, and the Boston Bruins' scratching a veteran defenceman and on the lookout for a blue-liner before next week's deadline.

John Shannon joins to discuss the Pettersson impasse. He says he doesn't believe the Canucks are considering a trade -- even this summer. John talks about his Canucks' team MVP, Chris Tanev and the available Flames, the Blues' and Predators' deadline plans, and Sidney Crosby memories from 2010. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.
