As the losses mount, the Canucks merely get set to take on the best team in the league tonight in Denver. Matt and Blake take a look at how ugly it could get considering the Avs' dismantling of Calgary earlier this week. But with a loss clinching 32nd, does anybody care? The guys also look at the decision to sit Evander Kane in the wake of his 1000th game and whether Lankinen can handle all this work, plus, they debate whether Jim Rutherford has fan confidence to manage the rebuild.

TSN's Frank Corrado stops by with a brief bit of Italian soccer angst to start, but also gets into the state of the Canucks and their historically bad 2nd periods. Frank talks about whether that should concern Canucks' fans about coaching decisions in the future, and who thinks might be making those decisions in the offseason. Corrado also weighs in on rumours of former Canucks executive Mike Gillis as a possible new president in Toronto?!

The Canucks just can't stop, won't stop, with all the losing and Matt and Blake have the latest on how close the Canucks are to clinching the top odds in the NHL Draft Lottery. The guys look back on the latest Canuck to hit 1000 games, the young blueliners are taking on water, and reports are beginning to surface of a chance in Canucks management. RinkWide's Jeff Paterson stops by to discuss the ongoing losing and lack of competiiveness lately on the scoreboard.

The Vancouver Canucks had reporter Trevor Beggs of the Daily Hive removed from Rogers Arena, mid game, and revoke his press credentials after they were unhappy with an article that was written. Since then, the organization has doubled down and decided to uphold their decision and not re-instate the credentials.

Another loss, another perplexing decision by the Canucks organization, another big show for Matt and Blake! The guys get into what was another disastrous performance for the Canucks vs the Flames, particularly in goal, and despite a 2 point night for EP40. They also look at the team's decision to kick out a media member mid game on Thursday night and how that reflects on the team in a trying time already. Plus, a Stanley Cup winning coach is suddenly out of work and a former Canucks coach takes over in Vegas?? Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by to delve...

Nils Höglander is one thing, but the young defencemen and goalie Nikita Tolopilo are others. They also discuss the merciful end of this eight-game home stand, another start for Kevin Lankinen, Filip Chytil skating again, the prospect pool moving on up The Athletic's rankings, Canucks players at the NCAA Frozen Four and a sweet story about a BC boy making his NHL debut.
