April 23 2024 – Frank Seravalli, John Shannon & Rob Williams

BREAKING NEWS: Thatcher Demko is OUT for Game 2 vs the Preds, casting a serious shadow over the rest of the series. Matt and Blake get the Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli in studio right off the top of the show to break the news and get as many of the details as possible, including Frank’s guess on the possibility of a Demko return at some point. Matt and Blake react to the news, talk about possible system changes in light of the injury, and get into the goaltending history of Casey DeSmithw. We also hear from Canucks Head Coach Rick Tocchet and JT Miller on the path forward without Demko. 


Prior to the goaltending news, the guys chatted with John Shannon and the Daily Hive’s Rob Williams as well, talking about the series, plus the NHL Playoff vibes in this city and around the NHL. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.

April 17 2024 – Frank Corrado & Rob Williams

Pacific Division Champs! The 11th division title in team history may end up being the most surprising one, so Matt and Blake look back on how they got here from there, including the win over the Flames that clinched it.
