C4 Canucks Hockey Podcast

F U NHL - Nov. 2, 2021

After going .500 on the road, the Vancouver Canucks found themselves back at home in front a full barn with expectations they'd continue the trend of manufacturing points. Unfortunately, this hasn't been the case. Anna & Chris discuss what's going on, if it's something more than the usual "October duldrums," and when the team will find a way to get itself going. The two then discuss the news of the past week that the NHL has a significant culture issue, one that allowed the Chicago Blackhawks to put a Stanley Cup ahead of protecting one of its own, and what faith they have (if any) that things will ever change.

Squid Games Part 1 - Oct. 26, 2021

After a lacklustre effort against expansion cousins, the Buffalo Sabres, the Vancouver Canucks wrapped up their season opening road trip with a couple tidy wins against the Chicago Blackhawks and Seattle Kraken. Anna & Chris break the past week down while wondering how you fix the Lotto Line, why Connor Garland is so darn adorable, what it will be like to see a full house at Rogers Arena and so much more.

I Hate It Here - Oct. 19, 2021

The 2021-22 NHL season is now underway and the Canucks are midway through an swing out East to kick off their campaign. With points two out of three games, Vancouver finds itself working out the early season kinks while missing a top player in Brock Boeser. Anna and Chris share their thoughts on Travis Green's early line deployment, whether or not it's too early to suggest Vancouver won the OEL trade, and why they can't wait for the game against the Seattle Kraken. Plus talk about pill culture and what they want to see change to bring the game into a modern era. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Thankful Preseason is Over - Oct. 12, 2021

The Vancouver Canucks preseason is complete. The start of season roster is only hours (when this was recorded) away. Alex Chiasson is currently on the ice with the first power play pairing, as well as what appears to be the first line. What is going on?! Chris rejoins Anna to wonder if the Canucks poor preseason record is anything to worry about, whether Olli Juolevi got a fair shake in Vancouver, why Phillip Di Giuseppe didn't make the cut, and whether or not it's time to remove fighting from the NHL game.

A Long Way to Abbotsford - Sep. 30, 2021

With a couple of preseason games in the books - one in Spokane and another in Abbotsford - we're starting to get an idea of who's got a chance to make the big club, which players are going to meet our high expectations, and how things will look in a world that might not include Pettersson & Hughes in the early going (through Anna & Chris still hold out hope a deal is signed soon). Add in their thoughts & opinions on other pressing issues around the league and you have yourself a solid episode (albeit a bit late).C4 Text Line - (604) 200-6201

Waiting Around - Sep. 14, 2021

The Vancouver Canucks kick off the 2021-22 regular season in a month's time, the rookie camp rosters have been released, yet Elias Pettersson & Quinn Hughes both still need deals. Anna & Chris wonder what it will take to make that happen, and if there's any real potential one or both don't join the team for camp.C4 Text Line - (604) 200-6201

S’up Seattle? - Aug. 31, 2021

Chris (@lyteforce) is MIA (maybe check Matt Lee's basement just in case) so Anna (@aforsyth03) has roped in the new Kraken beat reporter Marisa Ingemi (@Marisa_Ingemi) to talk all things Seattle hockey. Join us as Anna grills Marisa on just how you build a successful hockey team, how Seattle is doing so far, and what's to come. They also get into the murky world of "hockey culture" and how we change it.We hope you've enjoyed our summer series on Seattle (please listen to our episodes with Sound of Hockey if you haven't yet!) but unfortunately, we will back to focusing on the Canucks soon - although the rivalry with those damn smart sea creatures will never be far from our minds.Marisa Ingemi - https://twitter.com/Marisa_Ingemi
