Aug 17, 2026: Should the Canucks still shop for UFA's? Demko delay

Sekeres and Price are reunited! Matt and Blake are both back in studio to help breakdown a busy sports weekend. The guys also take a look at the quiet summer in the NHL and wonder if the Canucks should/will sign a late UFA. They go over who is still available and which players might fetch the highest price at the trade deadline. The boys also tackle the demise of Hockey Night in Punjabi and the effects on the local community. Then it's Cam Robinson from Elite Prospects on the Canucks' likely plan for Braeden Cootes and Adam Novotny, and which gets the longer look in training camp. Cam also talks about the likely Canucks goaltending situation, and whether a PTO or UFA might be needed with Thatcher Demko still not ready in September. The guys finish up with the latest win for the Whitecaps and a busy week ahead, the Lions are streaking now too, and the Jays and Canadians have great weekends too!
