Game 4 is upon us with the Canucks into Dallas, and Matt and Blake have you covered with all the news leading up to puck drop. The guys get into the new lines, including a couple of new linemates to try and get EP40 going and Chytil getting some legit firepower on his wings. Plus, Demko and Boeser get a little bit closer to making Team USA at the Olympics. Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by to look at the early moves of Adam Foote and whether his new look lines are a step in the right direction. PJ also looks at the obvious reliance on spectactular goaltending and whether it may tax the goalies too much, and the need for both Pettersson and Hughes to find another level. Then it's Gregg Bell in Seattle with a look at the vibes after game 3 between the Jays and Mariners, which city breathes more baseball, and a quick look ahead to MNF and the Seahawks vs Texans. The guys wrap up the day with an update on the Lions and Whitecaps preparations for the weekend, including a number of Caps hoping for awards.

Well it was fun while it lasted, but Braeden Cootes gets sent to the WHL by the Canucks, meaning Matt and Blake have lots to discuss in the aftermath. The guys debate whether there is any regret about the decision to keep the youngster, and what this means to the Canucks centre ice position in the short and long term. Are the Canucks officially desperate to get a new centre, or will the eventual return of Blueger be enough for now? The guys also look at the road trip ahead, the goaltending usage, and JT Miller's comments after running into some early issues with his Rangers. TSN's Frank Corrado is back to discuss the demotion of Cootes and what may lie ahead for the prospect, both this year and next. Frank also talks about the best lineup combination to get EP40 going, and the 2nd line centre urgency for the team. He also has thoughts on the strength of the Pacific division, and a surprise team that may battle the Canucks for a playoff position. The Daily Hive's Rob WIlliams stops by to discuss his view of the Pettersson criticisms and his Pius Suter regret at the centre ice position. Rob also talks about the initial Adam Foote decisions that have fallen flat, and also former coach Rick Tocchet's interesting comments about his relationship with the Vancouver media. Then the guys wrap up the show with a preview of the Jays and Mariners in game 3, the Whitecaps and Lions get set for massive home games this weekend, and on the pitch, the Canadian men get a draw vs Colombia!

After the Canucks suffer a Thanksgiving day loss to the Blues, Matt and Blake take a look at a start that is now bordering on concern. Outside of the goaltending, the stars have not been very visible, so is that an easier fix or more distressing? EP40's icetime is already being cut down by Adam Foote, so the guys debate whether this is the right approach for Pettersson so early in the season. The stats aren't even kind for Quinn Hughes, and the boys listen in on the already frustrated post-game comments of the captain. John Shannon stops by for his weekly visit and comments on the poll question of "concern vs patience". John gets into the roster demographic and the need for Foote to manage the lines appropriately. Then we get the finger on the pulse of the fans as Wyatt Arndt of "The Stanchies" stops by to discuss the angst that is starting already. Are Canucks fans too scarred to have patience? Wyatt also talks about his early impressions of Pettersson and gives his opinion on the possible return of the skate jersey in Vancouver. The show wraps up with a look at the Jays getting dumped by the Mariners again, a look at the Lions playoff scenarios, and the Canadian men's soccer team goes looking for its biggest win ever.
