July 25 2023 - Patrick Johnston & Garrett Spain

Rink Wide: Vancouver co-host Jeff Paterson joins Matt in place of Blake and discuss how many pieces are lacking for the Canucks to call themselves Cup contenders. The guys also discuss the glut of defencemen in Carolina after the Tony DeAngelo signing and who might shake free; as well as the remaining free agents and if anybody could secure a multi-year deal. Other topics include: Patrice Bergeron's retirement, the B.C. Lions extraordinary defence, Canada's second match vs Ireland at the FIFA World Cup, and a break for the Whitecaps in Leagues Cup. Patrick Johnston guests and talks about the departure of Canucks AGM Derek Clancey, the trading out of so many draft picks this decade, and what it will take for the Canucks to contend. And Vancouver Canadians outfielder Garrett Spain tells us about his first love (hockey) growing up as a Nashville Jr Predator, and about his penchant for dramatic home runs in what's being called "The Summer of Spain" out at The Nat. Presented by Applewood Auto Group.
