June 23, 2025: NHL deals being made without the Canucks, Abby plays for the Cup.. again!

The simmer of the NHL offseason continues with signings and trades, but no sign of the Canucks jumping in just yet. Matt and Blake talk about the deals so far, and what it means for the Canucks. Should they have been in on any of the trades so far, and who are they chasing now? The guys also preview game 6 of the Calder Cup Final as the Abby Canucks try to seal the deal for the second game in a row, and who will make the difference for them tonight? Rinkwide's Jeff Paterson also weighs in on the Canucks chances to win the title, and what he expects in terms of the lineup and tactical changes heading into the game in Charlotte. Jeff also gets into the NHL trades of Trevor Zegras and others, and whether the Canucks should have been bigger players in those deals, and he gives his two cents on a possible return of Kuzmenko?! Then it's John Shannon with a wide look around the NHL for the sellers and buyers, expecially those that may interest the Canucks. John has strong takes on the value of several players including the relocated Zegras, and others like Bryan Rust and JJ Paterka. Then the guys finish off with a chat on the Lions second straight loss to 'Peg, SGA making history with an NBA title and more MVP trophies, the Canadian men looking ordinary at the Gold Cup, and the C's starting their second half of the season!
