Oct 28, 2025: EP40 and Canucks vs JT Miller! Hughes still out; Jays lose epic

The long awaited return of JT Miller is finally here for Canucks fans, so Matt and Blake have a lot to preview, including the kind of reception the former Canucks star will revceive. The boys debate whether it'll be boos or cheers, and whether the emotions on the ice will be raised despite being non-conference opposition. The guys also go over the myriad of injuries and lineup changes as Quinn Hughes misses another game due to injury, and Tom Willander draws in for his first NHL game. Elite Prospects' Cam Robinson drops in to discuss the night's proceedings as well, plus he gives us a scouting report on the newest Canuck Lukas Reichel and his confidence in the player fulfilling his draft promise. Cam also weighs in on the addition of speed to the Canucks lineup, and drops the name of possible new centre ice target for the Canucks. Voice of the Vancouver Canadians, Tyler Zickel, stops by to discuss his experience covering the Jays-Dodgers game in person, and the feeling inside Dodgers Stadium over 18 innings worth of baseball. Zickel also shares his stories of watching Trey Yesavage rise from single A to the World Series in one year, and former C Addison Barger's impact on the lineup. The guys finish up with a full breakdown on the evening in LA and its place in history. They also peek ahead to the Whitecaps match in Dallas and which returning regular might be able to play more minutes. Plus, the Lions get set to host the West Semi at BC Place!
