He's here! The Whitecaps' biggest signing ever, Thomas Müller, officially arrives on our shores and is welcomed to the city! Matt and Blake look at the players' place in Vancouver sports history, and what it means to the team's competitiveness this season and next, plus what it means for the franchise's future on and off the pitch. The Sheet's Jeff Marek injects some hockey talk as well, the guys debate how the NHL might be able to add something to the August calendar to keeps fans engaged. They also look at the recent Canucks topics of EP40's "revenge" season, the signing of Kravtsov, and the possibilities of Zacha or Mittelstadt from Boston. Then it's a visit from Whitecaps co-owner Jeff Mallet, talking about the genesis of the Müller acquisition, what it does for the team's marketability, and how it affects the possibilty of a new stadium and ownership change. They wrap the show with the baseball report, and the latest from the BC Lions and NFL camps!
