#Canucks captain Quinn Hughes' quest for history - Sekeres & Price LIVE
On today's show, Matt and Blake look at Quinn Hughes' quest in the record books. The Canucks captain can become the team's all-time leading scorer for defencemen next season. Does Quinn have 1,000 points in him down the line? Patrick Johnston joins the show to discuss why the Canucks haven't signed Silovs, if the team will trade Tucker Poolman's contract and more. Then, it's Rob Williams on the new jersey numbers for the players the Canucks added this off-season and why it's time for Vasily Podkolzin to finally crack the team's lineup on a full-time basis.
Seravalli on Canucks report card in free agency
Frank Seravalli on the #Canucks in free agency:
"It would give them a C+. It was middling...I don't know how you can possibly make the argument today that the Vancouver Canucks are better than they were when they lost in Game 7 of Round 2."

Ray on Canucks outlook for next year
Ray Ferraro's outlook for the #Canucks next season:
"The balance that's been added to the lineup, given what's already here, I think you less distance to travel to be that good playoff team that you're talking about."

Shannon on Desharnais
John Shannon the growth of Vincent Desharnais:
"He understood how to use his big body...effective, for the most part, on the penalty kill...[he] will become a fan favourite. People will learn to love the way Desharnais plays the game." #Canucks

JPat on Canucks' forward depth
Jeff Paterson on the #Canucks' improved forward depth:
"Kiefer Sherwood should be able to give you got from Sam Lafferty & more...that sandpaper, that edge...Tocchet is really going to like having a player like Sherwood in his lineup."

Who is your favourite free agent signing by the #Canucks? - Sekeres & Price LIVE
Now that the dust has settled on the first week of free agency, we want to know who your favourite signing is, or rather, who are you most looking forward to watching on the #Canucks? Jake DeBrusk should have the biggest impact on the team, but what else can Danton Heinen, Kiefer Sherwood, Derek Forbort and Vincent Desharnais bring to the table? We discuss that all, and get John Shannon's input on what the Canucks did, as well as the new NHL's new broadcasting deal with Amazon Prime. Then, we welcome Justin McInnis from the B.C. Lions to recap the Leos' big win over the Ti-Cats on Sunday.
Ferraro on Heinen
Ray Ferraro on Danton Heinen:
"He should be a 40-point guy...fast, he's smart, he has a good shot...a middle-six player...he's a legit producer...he should give him them pop and speed." #Canucks

Harm on Canucks forward depth
Harm from CanucksArmy on the #Canucks signing Danton Heinen & Kiefer Sherwood:
"I really love how versatile he (Heinen) can be...give you 15+ goals, someone Tocchet can trust...Sherwood, he gives pace, grit, helps give the 4th line some identity."

Corrado on Canucks
Are the #Canucks a better team NOW vs. the playoffs? 🤨
Frank Corrado: "I would think they are...the fact that Pettersson now has two viable scoring options...he's not going out there with Mikheyev & Lafferty."

PJ on Heinen
The #Canucks should have more depth scoring next season from guys like Danton Heinen:
Patrick Johnston: "When he's been on his game, he's scored at a low-end second-line, high-end third-line rate...he's a handy player...can he find 15 goals?"

Ferraro on DeBrusk
Ray Ferraro on why he thinks DeBrusk can score 30 with the #Canucks:
"Jake is big, fast and has great hands...I think he got stuck in Boston between the power game & the speed game...you should get more help from your centreman here."

PJ on Podz
PJ & Blake on Podz:
"They've been really trying hard to de-systemize him...a massive season for him...a teenager in Russia playing pro where they barely give you ice-time scares you into "must not make a single f****** mistake!" #Canucks

Can Jake DeBrusk be a 30-goal scorer for the Vancouver Canucks next season? That's our poll question of the day, as JPat sits in for Sekeres to co-host alongside Blake. The guys discuss DeBrusk's impact on the lineup and how the rest of the lines could shape out before welcoming Ray Ferraro to get his take on free agency so far and how he thinks the team is shaping up. Then, B.C. Lions kicker Sean Whyte joins the show after nailing the game-winning field goal for Lions last week.
Which puck-moving defenceman could the #Canucks sign? - Sekeres & Price LIVE
They've loaded up their forward depth in free agency, but the Canucks appear to be one puck-moving defenceman short. Could we see them add another body on the backend before the season starts, or will it come in-season like they did with Nikita Zadorov last year? Matt and Blake comb through the names that are still available on the open market before welcoming Patrick Johnston and Rob Williams for their thoughts on the moves so far and what could still happen later this summer.
S&P + Corrado
Sekeres, Price & Frank Corrado on the #Canucks moves:
"They got DeBrusk, Heinen and Sherwood for what it would have cost for Guentzel...the #Canucks kind of used the Dakota Joshua success story as a template for what they wanted to do."

Shannon on Desharnais
John Shannon on the #Canucks signing Vincent Desharnais:
"He's physical, he's not afraid to mix it up...that great condor-like reach...if he can spend time with Sergei Gonchar & Adam Foote like he did with Paul Coffey, he will be a better 🏒 player." #Canucks

Harm on the Canucks' D
Harman Dayal on the #Canucks' defence core:
"It's fine in the sense if you started with it in Oct...if you want to make a deep postseason run, ideally you're not starting with Myers in the Top-4...I like the size, but I wonder if they have enough puck-moving"
