Nov 3, 2025: Hughes returns for Canucks, Lions and Whitecaps the weekend winners!

After a sports weekend for the ages, Matt and Blake have a jumbo show before the Canucks face off in Nashville. The guys get into the awaited return of Quinn Hughes to the lineup and get an update on who else is coming back soon for the Canucks. Plus, the boys listen in on Adam Foote's pre-game praise of Elias Pettersson, as he once again tries to find his offensive game. Then, it's a recap of the massive playoff wins for the Lions and Whitecaps who both move on as the hottest teams in their respective leagues, despite showing some hiccups in their victories. John Shannon stops by to talk about the Canucks through 13 games, and whether the jury is still out on EP40's renaissance attempt. John talks about the possibility of any more trade, whether to re-sign Sherwood immediately, and the longtime tv executive waxes on the surprisingly great tv ratings for the World Series in the USA despite the Canadian team involved. Then the guys are joined by Whitecaps hero Ralph Priso, who scored the game winner in Dallas. Ralph talks about the big moment of watching the ball go in, the chemistry in their room right now, preparing for their rivals LAFC, and what it might be like to have 40 thousand or more at BC Place for the match! The guys finish up with a look back at game 7 of the Jays and Dodgers, a series that really had it all. All the heartbreak, all the drama, all the innings! Plus the Seahawks are on a roll and back on top of the NFC West!
