Jeff Paterson of the Rink Wide: Vancouver podcast sits in Sekeres' seat co-hosting with Blake. The guys ponder if the Canucks will make a big move or not this off-season to free up some cap space (where have we heard that before?) so they can perhaps add another free agent or two. They touch on Jared McCann's comments on Luke Gazdic's podcast talking about his experiences in Vancouver as a rookie and how it affected him. Now that he's retired, is Alain Vigneault the greatest coach in Canucks history, or does that title belong to Pat Quinn? The guys also tee up the weekend for the Vancouver Whitecaps and B.C. Lions, with both teams looking to bounce back after rough outings. Lions QB Vernon Adams joins us and says the defeat to the Argos is well in the rearview mirror, as the Leos get set to host Adams' former team, the Montreal Alouettes, on Sunday. Former Canucks analyst Rachel Doerrie breaks down the Canucks signings this off-season and provides an update on Tyler Myers' $5 million bonus and if the team is likely to move him or not. We also chat with Rachel on the team's decision to draft Tom Willander over local product Zach Benson. The show wraps up with a Sekeres vs. Price battle in which Matt and Blake debate (recorded on Thursday) whether the Canucks should trade Myers before opening night in October.

Matt and Blake discuss whether Tyler Myers will return after the addition of three free-agent defencemen; development camp and some of the prospects in the Canucks' system; some saltiness from Oliver Ekman-Larsson over in Sweden, and improvements on defence in light of the Rutherford/Allvin history in Pittsburgh. Rick Dhaliwal stops by with info on the negotiation with Elias Pettersson on a contract extension, and Myers' future. He also talks about remaining free agents that could fit the bill at third-line centre. Frank Corrado gives us his insight on former defence partner Ian Cole, the system for defencemen when he was in Pittsburgh under Coach Tocchet, Jim Rutherford and Patrik Allvin. Frank shares his feelings on what a summer development camp should aim to do, and on some of the deals handed out in free agency.

Matt and Blake are back after digesting the weekend's free agency news. The guys discuss the signings of Soucy, Cole and Blueger and the roster battles shaping up at Canucks training camp. They also take a look at the penchant for penalties from two of three newcomers, and the cap flexibility the club has left themselves going forward. Darren Dreger from the (Ray & Dregs Hockey Podcast) with his last hit of the season tells us that the Canucks said 'no' on a defenceman being pushed by an Eastern club, and informs that all is not as rosy as Patrik Allvin led us to believe Saturday with regards to Tanner Pearson's injured hand. Patrick Johnston addresses a number of Canucks issues including J.T. Miller staying and now having a no-move clause, the signings of free agents and whether there's any room left for upgrades.

A special NHL Free Agency episode on Canada Day features a full analysis of the moves the Canucks made -- and some they didn't make. Matt, Blake and Jeff Paterson from the Rink Wide: Vancouver podcast evaluate the signings of defencemen Carson Soucy, Ian Cole, Matt Irwin, centre Teddy Blueger and goaltender Zach Sawchenko. They kick around the signings elsewhere across the league including players such as Ryan O'Reilly, Luke Schenn that interested the Canucks, as well as players (such as Morgan Geekie) on the fingertips of Canucks' fans on social media. The guys have a big picture discussion on what brought the team to this Canada Day with limited cap space to fill several holes; debating not just what these additions mean for the Canucks' push to make the playoffs next season, but in the longer-term given that only one player signed a multi-year contract.
