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.

After a huge weekend for both teams inside BC Place, there's so much for Matt and Blake to unpack today! They get into a sold out lower bowl match for the Whitecaps as Thomas Müller makes a 2nd half debut and nearly scores the game winner. They go over the atmosphere, the performance on the pitch, and whether it's reasonable to think he could help them win an MLS Cup. The guys also get into some hockey, as Luke Hughes remains unsigned in New Jersey, and begin to dream of a massive overpay to re-unite Luke and Quinn via trade. Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by for a chat on the Müller arrival and how he thinks it's gone so far, both on and off the pitch. PJ also weighs in on the neverending search for a Canucks 2nd line centre, and on the far fetched idea of the Canucks acquiring Luke Hughes rather than the other way around. Then it's Whitecaps legend and current club liason Bob Lenarduzzi on the historic debut of Müller and the comparisons he sees of the German to Whitecaps of yesteryear. Bob gets into the fit on the roster, and how he'll adapt to MLS and different level of play from his former global powerhouse at Bayern Munich. Then the guys finish up with a look back at a 2nd straight win for the Lions and an impressive performance for Rourke. Plus, the full baseball story and Scheffler wins on the PGA tour... again!

With the Canucks needing a centre, and the Bruins reportedly getting interest in a pair of their guys, Matt and Blake debate the fit and likely cost for Vancouver. The guys get into the recent performance of both Mittelstadt and Zacha, and which one would work best. Then it's the latest on the Whitecaps "ref-gate", as MLS rescinds the actions of referee Tim Ford, but can't give them points back. Plus, Thomas Müller begins catering his social media account to Whitecaps fans as he boards the plane ahead of Thursday's unveiling. Rob Williams of the The Daily Hive stops by with his takes on the Elias Pettersson revenge tour, plus some possible intel on EP40's summer romance?! Rob also has updates on ticket prices for the Canucks season, and the slow and steady seat replacement project. He also jumps into the poll question on the 2 Bruins centres and has his own predictions on the Müller effect with the Whitecaps. BC Lions President Duane Vienneau stops by in studio as well and talks about the start of the season for the team, the progress at the box office, and the plans for next season when the World Cup comes to town. He reveals how many home games will be played outside of BC Place, and whether they've had any talks with the Whitecaps about sharing an outdoor stadium. Then the guys wrap up with the latest Lions news on the field, and the full baseball report on the Jays, Mariners and Canadians!

The guys get into the ongoing wait for a Canucks 2nd line centre, the news of JT Miller possible being the next captain of the Rangers, and MLS referee Tim Ford sticks it to the Whitecaps again in a scandalous match in San Jose. Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects stops by to weigh in on the hockey news, as well as Elias Pettersson's offseason and vow for "revenge", the Canucks bringing back Vitali Kravtsov from the KHL, and the Oilers looking to a make a deal. Then it's kicker Sean Whyte of the BC Lions, after a massive OT road win in Hamilton, talking about late game heroics and career that is taking him into his 40's. The guys finish up with some talk about the week that was in the CFL, the Jays and Mariners division title aspirations, and the C's down to 2 homestands remaining!
