Tsn 1040: Sekeres & Price

Brock Boeser returns to practice, joining Thatcher Demko as a triumphant returnee this week. Matt and Blake talk about when they might be in the lineup, and what this does emotionally to a team that has been on a rollercoaster of late. Plus, defensive changes are needed soon, will that be in personnel or just combinations? TGIJ! It's Jeff-day on S&P with both JPat and Marek. Paterson previews the Canucks and Senators, how this team responds to MIller's absence in the short term, and when he thinks the Canucks pull off a trade. Then it's Marek on the Miller story, the Canucks bonding on the road, and a deep dive into the CHL-NCAA-BCHL story and the trickle down effect of how this will shape both Hockey Canada and junior hockey in the future. All that, plus Vernon Adams trade possibilities and some NFL chat too!

It was a big day at practice for the Canucks as Thatcher Demko was a near full participant and spoke for the first time since training camp. Matt and Blake take a listen to what he has to say and try to read the tea leaves on when he might be back. The guys also look at the lineup over the next two games and see where Brock Boeser might slot in, plus they recap the 5 game callup of Lekkerimäki, and when the Canucks might be willing to call him back up. Patrick Johnston stops by with his thoughts on JT Miller, Boeser, and Demko timelines, where the Canucks should turn to improve the defence, and what Max Sasson might bring to the table after his callup. Then it's the Daily Hive's Rob Williams with a full Grey Cup streaker report, and more on Canucks defence and goaltending woes. And finally, the guys chat with new Lions GM Ryan Rigmaiden on his background, the future trade of Vernon Adams, and who is up for the vacant Lions Head Coaching position.

The Canucks lose JT Miller, and a game to the Rangers, all in the same day and Matt and Blake have all the coverage you need. Despite the good effort vs NYR, is that a sign of things to come with Miller, Boeser and Demko all gone? The guys get into the possible returns of Boeser and Demko though, and maybe the chance for the Canucks to build on their fabulous road record, starting Saturday in Ottawa. Former Canucks exec Laurence Gilman stops by to review the Canucks minus Miller, but also to recount how he's seen the Canucks deal with personal leaves in the past, including that of Rick Rypien. Then it's TSN's Frank Corrado with his X's and O's on the Canucks of late, whether they need to panic on defence, and how the Miller absence will affect the room. All that, plus the breaking news on the Lions coaching changes, the possible candidates for Canton, and the Canadian men win again in Nations League.

The Canucks get set for a spell without JT Miller as the Canucks' top centre takes an indefinite leave fron the team. Matt and Blake deal with the ripple effects of that news on a gameday vs the Rangers, as well as some other lineup question mark, as Garland misses the morning skate as well. The guys also talk about a closer return of Brock Boeser though, as he reportedly begins to skate. John Shannon joins to discuss all the big headlines and where the Canucks go from here. Can theyt keep their heads above water till they get healthy, and can Elias Pettersson's improved play offset the lineup losses? Plus John weighs in on the Grey Cup in Vancouver, Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects joins to discuss the development of Lekkerimäki, and whether guys like EPD or Kirill Kudryavtsev could jump on NHL ice at some point soon given the struggles of the Canucks blueline.

Back on the Canucks rollercoaster everyone! Matt and Blake tackle the up and down Canucks after their latest fiasco at home vs the Preds, and Rick Tocchet's interesting post game comments. JT Miller's 3rd period benching is in the spotlight, but all facets of their game are under the spotlight now. RinkWide's Jeff Paterson stops for his post game analysis, from the treatment of Miller to the spotty goaltending and defence pairs, but also the continued resurgence of Elias Pettersson. Then TSN's Darren Dreger stops by to update us on the timelines for the injured Brock Boeser and Thatcher Demko, plus he gets into the level of the Canucks' urgency to shake things up via trade. Are the Flames or Sabres ready to make moves as well? All that, plus a Grey Cup recap, the Seahawks surprise with a road win, and the Canadian men eke out a win in Suriname to start Nations League.

No shortage of topics today after an error filled Canucks loss to the Islanders and an animated Rick Tocchet post game interview. Matt and Blake listen in on the coach's comments and get into what went wrong for the Canucks, what has consistently gone wrong on home ice, and whether Tocchet is correct about it being his fault. Jeff Paterson joins from practice to discuss the opening goal of Lekkerimäki's NHL career, Dakota Joshua's season debut, and what Tocchet may have up his sleep to get the best out of his team going forward. And with the guys on location at the Grey Cuyp festival, they talk some CFL with TSN's Dave Naylor, who gets into the anticipated big changes for the BC Lions. All that, plus more on the CFL awards, MLB news and the CMNT without Alphonso Davies.

Bo is back, but so is Dakota Joshua! The Canucks get their winger back for his season debut, just as Horvat and the injured Islanders limp into town. Matt and Blake take a look at how that affects the Canucks lineup and what to expect from Lekkerimäki in his 2nd NHL game. Plus, does anyone feel bad that Horvat is possibly facing a season out of the playoffs and future that isn't as bright as the Canucks'? The Province's Patrick Johnston helps to answer that question and more as he visits the show from the arena. PJ compares this matchup to the Calgary game, and weighs in on the Canucks collecting cap space to make a big move later in the season. Then it's Rob WIlliams from The Daily Hive with his review of the Horvat era in Vancouver and what the fans still think of the former captain, plus the reaction to Ryan Kesler's personal campaign for a Canucks connection. Then some chat about the Grey Cup and an epic NFL schedule!
