Matt and guest co-host Irf Gaffar talk about the Canucks' ailing power play and how to fix it. They discuss the loss to Dallas on Thursday, the stakes against Anaheim come Sunday, who should tend goal versus the Ducks, why the coach used different forward combinations than what he has practised with, and the officiating vs the Stars. Plus we hear from head coach Rick Tocchet, forward J.T. Miller, evaluate Arshdeep Bains' return to the NHL, look ahead to playoff tickets, and check in on some Canucks' prospects in the NCAA ranks.

Jeff Paterson from Rink Wide: Vancouver joins to talk about the loss to Dallas, the woeful power play, Pius Suter in the bumper spot, fixes, his concern level with how the team is playing heading into the final stretch with the Edmonton Oilers creeping, the blended lines out the gate Thursday, officiating, the Canucks' lack of discipline and which winger (if any) can be a hero and start producing.

Plus, we go To The People and hear from listeners on Canucks-related topics. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.

Matt and guest co-host Irf Gaffar look at the Canucks second opportunity to clinch a berth in the Stanley Cup playoffs and a chance to reclaim the top spot in the Western Conference against the Dallas Stars. They delve into several topics including: Dakota Joshua's return to the lineup, his station alongside J.T. Miller & Brock Boeser how much he was missed, and his season arc after some tough love in October. Other topics include 10 games left, it's go time; Elias Lindholm's injury and the centre depth that's able to withstand it, the versatility of Canucks forwards who can play the middle, the matchup on defence against Dallas with two bright young superstars and two of the league's best pairs, a potential start for Arturs Silovs on Sunday, and playoff tickets going on sale soon.

Frank Seravalli stops by and talks about Lindholm's future with the injury and pending free agency. He also covers Filip Hronek's value as the most important Canucks free agent; the schedule for opening night of the playoffs, the cost of minor hockey these days and getting a kid to the NHL; plus the NHL's stance on CTE.

Patrick Johnston joins to talk about Canucks culture and how it's changed in the story he wrote. How the players have matured. How head coach Rick Tocchet has contributed to the changes. PJ also talks about their most important free agents and Joshua's return to the lineup. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.

Matt and guest co-host Jeff Paterson from Rink Wide: Vancouver talk about the Canucks' calling card: is it offence or defence? They discuss the return of Dakota Joshua to practice and his placement on the Miller-Boeser line, Thatcher Demko being placed on LTIR and his earliest return date, the recall of Arshdeep Bains and the need for a young forward to step up, the Elias Lindholm injury and whether it will end badly for him in Vancouver, the struggling power play and potential fixed, individual milestones being hunted, Filip Hronek no longer anchoring his own pair, former Canucks head coach Travis Green's chances of getting the permanent job in New Jersey and former Kamloops Blazer Logan Stankoven making his Rogers Arena debut Thursday.

Matt and Irf Gaffar (sitting in for Blake) talk about the Canucks' 3-2 loss to L.A., including whether the Kings are the team to avoid in the playoffs with the way they play and their record against Vancouver this season. The guys discuss Quinn Hughes' heavy workload and his comments post-game about how to waste energy and how he best generates chances; J.T. Miller's comments about the Canucks being a measuring stick, even if they're failing to get to the scoring areas against L.A. Plus, we revisit the Lindholm trade and the impact so far, Hronek without Hughes, the schedule for the Stanley Cup Playoffs & more!

John Shannon stops by to discuss the Canucks-Kings, who he'd want to avoid in Round 1, L.A.'s style of play, the playoffs getting moved up and the reasons why.

Big show for a big night as the Canucks try to clinch a playoff berth. Irf Gaffar joins Blake as co-host, and the guys discuss the likely absence of Elias Lindholm vs the Kings and maybe beyond, Dakota Joshua back at practice, and Jonathan Lekkerimäki officially joins the Abby Canucks to possibly even play a game before the season ends. 

Jeff Paterson stops by from Rink Wide: Vancouver and has lots to say on the eventful practice from Sunday, plus a recap of the Canucks win over the Flames on Saturday, and how the homestead might finish up. Jeff gives us his take on how the lineup might change when Joshua returns, and if Filip Hronek may have his run his own defence pair away from Hughes, now, and going forward. 

All this, plus news on the Canadian Men’s soccer team, the Whitecaps, and more! Presented by Applewood Auto Group.

The Canucks continue to set the pace atop the Pacific with a win over Montreal, and Nikita Zadorov takes his turn in the spotlight. Matt and Blake discuss the biggest night of Zadorov’s Canucks career as the big defenceman paces the team with two 1st period goals en route to the 4-1 win. The guys can’t help but wonder if nights like that might change the narrative that he’s just a rental for this season. 

They bring in the Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli for his thoughts on that, and how it might intertwine with the Flip Hronek negotiations. Also, Frank’s hysterical thoughts on the soap opera that is John Tortorella’s Flyers squad. 

Rink Wide: Vancouver host Jeff Paterson peeks in with a full post-game report, with more on Casey DeSmith’s fine effort, and the overall defensive play of late. All this and more, including the latest edition of “To the People We Go”, as we bring you some of the latest feedback from our viewers and listeners. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.

Matt and Blake discuss Ian Cole getting a load-management scratch, and whether the Canucks might consider Noah Juulsen in Cole's stead in the postseason. They talk about Casey DeSmith making a fourth straight start and playing in a fifth consecutive game in place of the injured Thatcher Demko. The NHL season, is it too long? What could schedules look like if not every Western and Eastern team play each other every year? The black Skate jersey being the primary playoff attire, Thursday's game against the Montreal Canadiens, Calgary Flames goaltender Dan Vladar headed for hip surgery and what that means for this summer on the goalie trade market, and ex-Canucks coach John Tortorella scratching his captain yet again.

Patrick Johnston joins and talks length of NHL season, the Skate jersey, the best wingers for Elias Pettersson, and the ongoing transformation from high-scoring outfit to a more defensively-inclined club.

Whitecaps FC interim head coach Mike D'Agostino joins to talk about leading his hometown club while Vanni Sartini serves his suspension. Mike talks about his rise in coaching, his relationship with Sartini, the mechanics of how an interim coach works, the team's terrific start and new mindset on the road.

Pettersson's prowess propels PP, Canucks outlast the Sabres. Matt and Blake have a lot to discuss after the stars came out to play for the Canucks vs. Buffalo, Pettersson’s 3 points, Hughes and his hits, and Miller being Miller. Is it a sign that the Canucks are figuring things out? 

TSN’s Frank Corrado stops by to break down the game and what it means down the stretch, including the possible resurgence of Ilya Mikheyev and avoiding a lull before the postseason. 

Then, it’s Rob Williams from the Daily Hive with his take on “Fry-gate” at Rogers Arena, Quinn Hughes’ place in Canucks history, and any possible concerns on the lack of playoff experience for the Canucks.

Arpon Basu of the Athletic joins the guys in studio to preview the game vs the plucky Canadiens, and explains how the Habs always seem to give the NHL's Cup contenders some issues, not to mention a history of BC connections with the team. All that, plus a nod to the late Chris Simon and the Whitecaps keep selling tickets! Presented by Applewood Auto Group.

Homestand Part 2! After 3 days off the game schedule, the Canucks get back at it this week starting with the Sabres, with yet another lineup shuffle from head coach Rick Tocchet. Matt and Blake go over those changes and the importance of these next 3 games against non-playoff teams.

John Shannon stops by with his take on the readiness of the Canucks for playoff hockey, on the possibility of team-friendly deals for the many Canucks UFAs, and on some bigger NHL issues like expansion and rule changes. 

Springs has sprung, which means the boys of summer are almost ready, and the voice of the Vancouver Canadians Tyler Zickel checks in from Florida with the latest on the Blue Jays and the C’s. 

All that, plus the Whitecaps getting good news on Vanni Sartini, and the Lions getting ready for Touchdown Pacific in Victoria. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.
