Bye Bye Bowie - Jan. 31, 2023

This week on C4 we are talking the big news of the day - the Vancouver Canucks have traded their captain! Chris & Anna talk about the return and if it is fair, Bo’s time as captain, and what they think of Beauvillier & Raty as Canucks. Plus Tochett’s first week as head coach is in the books, the Canucks’ handling of injuries is up for discussion and how pride nights are apparently optional in the NHL now.

Bruce There He Went - Jan. 24, 2023

As was expected over the past few weeks, the Vancouver Canucks finally fired Head Coach Bruce Boudreau & Assistant Coach Trent Cull. And while Canucks fans & players provided Bruce with the best farewell they could, the Vancouver Canucks management group decided the best way to deal with the aftermath from the situation is to blame us & the media for all the rampant speculation. Anna & Chris share their thoughts on how this all went down, how they think ownership & management have completely misread the situation, and what the future of the team under new Head Coach Rick Tocchet will be like.

Christopher Conversations - Jan. 17, 2023

With Anna still away, Chris Faber (of Canucks Army fame) swings through to join Chris to talk about everything there is to know about the Vancouver Canucks. Yet the bulk of what the two talk about is the answers given by Jim Rutherford in the recent press conference that some might describe as the most entertaining in a while. Jim touches on tanking, Bo Horvat's future as a Canuck (there isn't one), coaching "candidates," and being in the contract pickle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tossin’ Sticks - Jan 10, 2022

If the Canadian Oxford Dictionary ever needed an example of inconsistency, the simple phrase "The Vancouver Canucks" would likely cover all bases. Friend of the show Jay joins Chris to talk about how the team can play so well against a top team like the Colorado Avalanche, only to play so poorly against the Isles & Jets. Chris also gets Jay's thoughts on who he sees as untouchable and what type of deal makes the untouchables... touchable. And Jay's excited about what's going on down in Abbotsford.

JT is an Anti-Capitalist - Jan. 3, 2023

Happy New Year everybody! While it's a new year, it looks like we'll still be getting the same old Canucks!

When Is A Rebuild Not A Rebuild? - Dec. 20, 2022

In a week where the Vancouver Canucks beat the depleted Flames in a shootout yet were outshot by the weakened Jets and lost 5-1 at home (again), the GM sort of kind of admitted the Canucks were rebuilding. But not really. Anna & Chris also feel sorry for Bo Horvat, chuckle about the Canucks game against the Blues as it plays out in real time, and draw a winner for their holiday contest!

Bo Know His Own Value - Dec. 13, 2022

Chris is back! The Vancouver Canucks won 3 OTs in a row against the worst teams in the league and played a lot of fun hockey while doing it... before getting shutout by the most boring team in the NHL. They also floated another contract offer to their captain who fair-enough rejected it. Is it bye bye Bo time?Stay tuned to end of the show for our giveaway which we'll draw a winner for next week!!

The Tail that Wags the Dog - Nov. 29, 2022

Anna is joined by Daniel Wagner - aka Wags, aka @passittouboulis from Vancouver is Awesome - who fits right in by deflating the optimism from Canucks 3 from 3 roadtrip. We talk Petey on the penalty kill, why Bo's face-off percentage might be game-changer but doesn't mean Canucks should break the bank re-signing him and why goalies are tough to talk to. Plus there's talk on the Canucks re-build road map, how to lose a trade and why we probably already can't afford Kuzmenko. And yes sorry, they do talk about JT Miller quite a lot.

Care-o-meter - Nov. 15, 2022

Having got their roadtrip off to a great start, where the Vancouver Canucks held a number of multi-goal leads and still won the game, the past few games have been far from stellar and the team looks to be in quite the tailspin. Anna & Chris wonder could happen when the team returns home, if trades of players named Bo & Demko are afoot, and where the team might find an opportunity to steady itself.

To Be Frank - Nov. 8, 2022

Anna & Chris are honoured to be joined by former Vancouver Canucks defenseman and current TSN analyst, Frank Corrado. Canucks fans know him a Frankie, so we ask the question on "everyone's" mind - did he purposefully switch to Frank once he left to distance himself from his time with us? Frank talks about his career, what he's up to now, and gives a few thoughts on what needs to happen with his former team. And as with every episode, Anna & Chris talk about the week that was and the week that could be... which... yeah... you know how it's likely to go. Learn more about your ad choices.
