John Shannon: JT as the new captain of the Rangers. And first hand memories of Ken Dryden and Bob Goodenow

With the Hughes family news continuing and the Rangers naming JT Miller captain, Matt and Blake take on the swirling stories of the two captains and the impacts on the Canucks' future. The guys look at the international eyes that are on this story and the Canucks' showdown vs the Rangers next month. Cam Robinson joins from Elite Prospects to give his review of the Canucks' performances last weekend in Seattle. He also chimes in on the players from the AHL Canucks that are vying for NHL jobs and roles this season, giving us his choices to make the leap. Cam also jumps into the Quinn Hughes story and whether NHL players like McDavid and Kaprizov will begin to Cup hunt on short term deals like some NBA stars. Veteran broadcast host and executive John Shannon is back as well, and tackles the JT Miller appointment and whether it's deserved. John also gives us his first hand memories of the recently departed Ken Dryden and Bob Goodenow, and their respective impacts on the sport of hockey. All that, plus the guys look at an historic night for a former Vancouver Canadian in his Blue Jays debut, the Whitecaps prep for a Canadian semifinal, and the Lions and Seahawks try to stay healthy.Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: It's never ordinary!

The Canucks' prospects weekend is over, a win and a loss, so Matt and Blake have their first bit of action to recap. The guys take a look at the top end players taking part and which ones might get the fans most excited in the future and they drill down on Lekkerimäki, Willander, and Cootes in particular. RinkWide's Jeff Paterson joins the guys to debrief what he saw in the games from Seattle. Jeff also projects what he anticipates the week to look like, as players check in on Wednesday and training camp starts up on Thursday. JPat gets into the battles for roster spots and specific roles that are up for grabs. Then it's Whitecaps radio analyst Colin Miller with his recap of the historic 7 goal win at BC Place on the weekend. Colin talks about what Müller has added to the team but also the contributions from guys like Sabbi, Ahmed and even the 17 year old Rayan Elloumi. The guys wrap up the show with a race around the rest of sports including the Lions dominant win over Ottawa, the Jays and Mariners winning everything, and world stage victories in rugby and track and field!Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: It's never ordinary!

While the Canucks prospects get set for their action in Seattle this weekend, Matt and Blake are equally focused on the big club and training camp. The guys look at the likely path to victory most nights, and whether it will be a lot of 2-1 wins. They debate whether fans are ready for that in the wake of the Miller-Pettersson era of decent offence. RinkWide's Jeff Paterson stops by to recap the week, including the questions around Quinn Hughes' future, including whether the Canucks can be good enough to keep him happy. Jeff also looks at the goaltending division of labour, the possibility of an Abby Canuck winning a job on opening night, and the right way for players to retire with their original team. Then it's Whitecaps coach Jesper Sorenson on the return to action for his club after a 3 week hiatus. Sorenson gives a health update on the likes of Gauld and White not to mention the banged up newcomers. Plus, he details his new relationship with Thomas Müller and whether they should vye for the Supporters Shield or just focus on the West. The guys wrap up the show with a preview of a proverbial must win game for the Lions, the Seahawks look for win number 1, and the Jays and M's both nab big wins down the stretch.Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: It's never ordinary!

After more comments from Quinn Hughes on his future in Vancouver, Matt and Blake have a ton to discuss on the future of the Canucks. Is Hughes just keeping his options open, or did he tip his hand? The guys debate the painful possibility of a Hughes trade sooner rather than later, and whether any return would be worth it. Former Canuck and TSN's Frank Corrado joins in to discuss the Canucks options on Hughes. Frank details the national interest in the story now, and if he sees the Canucks being able to salvage the situation. He also gets into the EP40 bulk up and what could benefit Pettersson, not to mention his own career experience with a summer of weight gain. Then it's Rob Williams of The Daily Hive with his very latest on "Seat beat" and whether the arena should be ready for opening night. Rob also gets into the muted coverage of Elias Pettersson's wedding, and the possible fallout of the Hughes drama on and off the ice. The guys finish up with a possibly massive addition to the Canadian men's soccer schedule, a curious Whitecaps marketing choice, the Lions roster update, and the Jays and M's stay on the hunt for the playoffs.Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: It's never ordinary!
