  • From 5 stars to 3 stars

    Dan left, negative Bik came in. The show is spiraling. Used to be one of my favorites to listen to. Can’t hardly finish an episode anymore. Bik needs to stop talking so much. All he does is whine and complain and bash everyone. It gets old. We know the season sucks. But yeah go ahead and keep pounding that into our heads. Won’t be listening for a while. Hopefully you find a good replacement for Dan…he’s missed.

  • Refuse to listen to segments featuring MAGAt fascist Saravelli. He is a shameless Trump fan and defended Cash Patel, deserves ZERO hits of Canadian radio!

  • Best hockey show around

    These legends of radio for hockey nuts like me, #factsonly that’s their show! And apart from the odd water bottle mishap and mishap with co-hosts names, just a great bit of entertainment

  • Great show!

    I especially love Dan Riccios coverage of any and all Canucks Italian relations. Very very very thorough Italian coverage. If you need to know how to pronounce provolone or lasagna. Or even a soccer players name?! He’s got you covered. Don’t know what Sat does. But Italian Dan is great!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Jannik Hansen on Coaching Impact and Draft Strategy
Q: What skill set do you think is the most important thing for a new front office member to include?
Having someone who understands the cap, culture, and player evaluation, then building a team around trusted evaluators; leadership should be able to delegate and hire smarter people to fill gaps.
Jannik Hansen on Coaching Impact and Draft Strategy
Q: Do we trust a new GM if they come in and say, keep Adam Foote around considering how it went with the team on the ice last year?
The panel debates whether Foote could develop young players and maintain a stable transition, suggesting that if Foote is the right guy for development, keep him; otherwise make the switch for long-term gains.
Landon Ferraro on Building off End of Season Culture
Q: Is there anything tangible about winning down the stretch in terms of mentality for next season, or is it something you park and move on with?
Ferraro explains that a bit of tangible momentum can be kept as a reference point going into training camp, but the main goal is for the team and players to understand what effort and commitment look like and to carry that into the next season, while recognizing turnover and the need for continued development.
Landon Ferraro on Building off End of Season Culture
Q: How do you view the end of the season? A merciful end, a bittersweet end?

Post Game: A Difficult Season Comes to an End
Q: What were the coach's key takeaways from the game?
Adam Foote noted the opponent wanted it more, execution was slightly off, and the team will learn from mistakes to grow for next season, while emphasizing the need for better preparation for high-stakes games and the willingness of players to fight for each other.
