The Canucks are back at home to face the Blackhawks and they're getting healthy! Matt and Blake get you the latest from morning skate as Conor Garland is set to return to Rogers Arena. The guys talk about what that does for the Canucks attack and offensive balance, plus, they look at ahead to a busy weekend of games that might include Teddy Blueger as well. The boys also debate the likelihood of Connor Bedard, someday, playing for his hometown Canucks. TSN's Frank Corrado stops by to look at the Canucks young defencemen and how they should be used going forward. He talks about a possible rotation for Willander, Pettersson and Mancini and what would benefit these players the most. Frankie also gets into the use of the Canucks forecheck and what their path to success could be after a 7 and 7 record to date. The Daily Hive's Rob Williams gives us his glass half full vs half empty opinion on the Canucks to this point, but also weighs in on possible Grizzlies relocation, and the successes of the Lions and Whitecaps and what a championship season for them would look like, especially through the lense of an average Canucks season. All that, plus the Jays get some good news already, the Vancouver Rise win in the playoffs, and health updates from the Lions as they get set for Regina.
