Aug 21, 2025: USA snubs Demko and Boeser, Rossi off the board? Müller starting?

As USA hockey prepares for the Olympics, they'll do so without Demko and Boeser on their immediate radar. Matt and Blake get into the debate of what that means for the players, the fans and the Canucks' playoff hopes. They also get into what it means for Garland and Quinn Hughes, who got the invite to the summer camp. The guys also debate the apparent end to the Canucks' interest in both Rossi and Roslovic, and what that means for Filip Chytil, who has spoken about his summer prep to this point. Rob Williams, of The Daily Hive, stops by to discuss the Olympic snubs and how it might ultimately help the Canucks. He gets into his confidence in Chytil as a true scorer for the Canucks, and whether he sees a different 2nd line centre in the Canucks' future. Then it's Whitecap Jayden Nelson, after a fabulous performance against Houston, talking about a week of training with Thomas Müller and how he has blended into the team to date. Nelson talks about his great season, and the team's aspirations after picking up two more players in the last 24 hours. Then it's Vancouver Canadian outfielder Eddie Micheletti on a fabulous season at Nat Bailey Stadium. He talks about the long road ahead to the majors, the joy of playing in Vancouver, and living up to the chance of his name at the Nat! The guys finish with a preview of the weekend for the Whitecaps and Lions, plus Canadians get ready for the US Open in tennis and Tour Championship in golf.
