Feb 7, 2025: Canucks cap good week for newbies, Demko with win in SJ...one more to go before 4Nations break

Matt and guest co-host Jeff Paterson discuss the week that was for the Canucks, the contributions of newcomers and the renaissance of Thatcher Demko, as well as the win in San Jose, the Marcus Pettersson extension, the early returns on Drew O'Connor and the continued struggles of Elias Pettersson. Other topics include: whether Dakota Joshua can get his season back on track, Quinn Hughes' injury and availability going forward, Conor Garland's leadership, Saturday's home game against the Leafs, and the Millers' farewell post to Vancouver.

Former Canucks president/GM Mike Gillis stops by and assess the Canucks recent moves, the path forward for Elias, team "resets," the conversations between players, organizations and agents heading into international duty, and the growth of women's hockey.

Arash Madani joins from Super Bowl with his thoughts -- and a bold prediction -- on the big game. He discusses Kansas City's clear coaching advantage, Philadelphia's route to victory, the Chiefs' experience in big games, and how a KC victory would situate this team in NFL history.
