July 9, 2025: Canucks camping in Penticton and is it time to overpay for a 2C?

Young Stars might be done in Penticton, but the Canucks aren't! Matt and Blake talk about the news of training camp returning to the Okanagan town again, where it's been before and what camps might look like going forward. The guys also debate what the highest price should be in the Canucks' pursuit of a 2nd line centre. They mention several combinations involving names like Willander, Lekkerimäki, and the 2026 1st round pick. Also, some other longshot trade targets have emerged, the guys weigh those possibilities as well. TSN's Frank Corrado also joins the show, discussing how big a risk he'd take in a Canucks centre trade. He also talks about the modern NHL roles, and what has and hasn't change with centre ice men, and what makes a good centreman these days. Also, Frank has his thoughts on whether a winger can be converted to play centre. All that, plus another edition of The Golf Report ahead of the Scottish Open, Ryan Gauld might be getting closer for the Whitecaps, and the Blue Jays win again!
