Saturday May 04, 2024
Saturday May 04, 2024
We are most of the way through round 1 of 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Discussion topics include playoff predictions, Hunter's feelings, and the "expansion" Utah team. As of recording, the Canucks had not quite eliminated Nashville, so we will save the VAN vs EDM talk for the next episode.

We sincerely forgot, and that says it all.
Taylor explains why the Oilers will never lose again. Hunter unintentionally cooks up an elaborate and feverish fantasy about the Canucks miraculous run to the 2024 Stanley Cup Final and how the Vancouver Police Department prevented another riot. We also talk about the Kings, the Sabres, Canada's goaltending lull and more.

Ep. 21: ”It’s Coming Home”
Thursday Aug 24, 2023
Thursday Aug 24, 2023
It's the dog days of summer (or it was, until Matthews decided he still wanted to be a Leaf within a week of us recording this; Bouchard is also dead to me now). We talk cup final, free agency, and our favourite perennial disappointments: the Edmonton Oilers and the Vancouver Canucks. Taylor makes a Womens World Cup final prediction and I can guarantee you he did not know the outcome before saying it. We also do a little swearing, and read some fan comments!
