Challenge ahead! The struggling Canucks merely face the best and hottest team in the NHL, with the Avs riding a 16 game points streak. Matt and Blake dig into the lineup tasked with ending that streak, and look at who's still missing due to injury. Plus, Adam Foote gives Lekkerimaki a big break on the big stage. The guys check on the team vibes too and debate if people are coming to grips with a likely Quinn Hughes trade. Then it's James Duthie from TSN to discuss the upcoming World Cup draw and what it means for fans in Vancouver, plus he tells a number of crazy Canucks stories ripped from the pages of his new book. Elite Prospects' Cam Robinson also stops by to talk about some of the whispers being bandied about with regards to the Canucks. Cam gets into possible Hughes destinations and who has the assets to pull it off. He also looks at the possibility of a local star coming home. Then the guys look ahead to MLS Cup and the high flying opposition that also likes to tempt the officials. The BC Lions face free agent decisions and the Seahawks have to keep winning!
