After another 3rd period to forget for the Canucks, Matt and Blake take a look at how a promising 40 minutes for the Canucks went up in smoke on home ice. The guys look at the season best shots on goal vs the defensive effort in front of Lankinen, and where this kind of game leaves the Canucks in terms of assesment. Patrick Johnston of Postmedia joins the guys to talk about the criticisms of EP40 from last night, specifically the passing up of shooting opportunities and the guys debate whether he will ever get the shooting confidence back. PJ also weighs in on the defensive play of the team, and whether there is a path to being much better than they are, even when they get fully healthy. Also, are the Canucks still willing to pay the price for a 2nd line centre or this team not worth the investment of assets? Then it's BC Lions Defensive Coordinator Mike Benevides, talking about the team's defensive turnaround in the 2nd half of the season, the momentum heading into Regina, and his review of several key members of the Lions defense to date. The guys also get into the new nickname of the PWHL Vancouver team, the Jays and Mariners' aspirations in MLB free agency, the Whitecaps miss out on an MLS award and the Canadian Men make 2 additions for the November window.Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: It's never ordinary!
