Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by to chat about the latest rumbling arounds the Canucks and what the team would need to offer to acquire somebody via trade, or alternatives, what they would need to pay a free agent that may not fit the bill perfectly. PJ shares his thoughts on the Dakota Joshua trade too, and whether the trade is a bigger risk than holding onto him for a possible bounce back season.

Am I the only one that doesn’t like Patrick Johnston and think he’s 🏳️🌈
Joshua was crap last year. Quit using cancer as an excuse. He was awful.
trade the first for sure
M Pettersson and Lekkerimäki
After last yrs end presser , Alvin and the Chipmunks said “ we will find the next Dakota Joshua “ then proceeded to sign him up….. same as Brock….perhaps some owner influence is continuing?
Patrick Johnston is always a negative first analysis. Never has any inside information. Really a dreg of the sports analyst personality.
Tune into the new 100% Canucks podcast, way better.
Filip Chytil has no value. Put down the bogey juice.
If the Canucks had a choice, they would love to have kept Dak, but you can't go into the next season without signing a 2-3c and gambling on Filip Cheeto playing a full season. The consequence of that action seems like it would p!ss off Hughes from yet another wasted season…
There's obviously reasons for why he took so long to make the NHL. I find it odd that the pundits are quick to call Brock's 40 goal season an 'outlier', but DJ's ONE 'decent' season wasn't?? He was moved to clear cap because he wasn't worth the $$. Best of luck to him.
Roslovic’s stats are not special, just as well off to keep Suter. Joshua’s offence and PK skill will be missed!
They mentioned during the show of Canucks trading players who fall off, why do we still have Nils Hoglander? Major drop in performance! Don’t hold your breath, he had his career year. He is 3 million, time to trade and get a 4th round like Joshua and Silovs.
Im at the point where i say fuckin ship it for McTavish. I'm good with trading Lekkerimaki, Hoglander, Willander, Mancini, Debrusk, D Petey, Cootes, Chytil, 1st rounders, and 2nd rounders. Obviously not all of them, but some combination of them and i wouldn't even blink.
2026 1st round pick (top 5 protected)
Debrusk/Hoglander
Lekkerimaki/Mancini
2026 or 2027 2nd round pick
OR
2026 1st round pick (top 5 protected)
Chytil
Willander/Cootes
2026 or 2027 2nd round pick
Add an asset to either package to get it done if you have to, i dont care lol
TNT panel is horrible. Completely disagree. The best part about Sportsnet is their panel in my opinion.
I’m a BC boy living in Australia for the past 20 years
I stream the NHL app all the games in HD for $24 a month.
If you are in Canada getting ripped off buy a vpn and use a Australian ip address 😂😜😂
Just some insight into Cancer treatments since I'm personally dealing with Stage IV Prostate Cancer. Testicular Cancer is a hard one to deal with because your testicles produce testosterone, which you need for muscle strength. Usually, the protocol is to remove the testicle and combine radiation to the area around it. The also tend to use ADT treatment which shuts off your testosterone production to ensure that the cancer doesn't spread to places like his Prostate. This treatment is only used for around six months in the case of that type of cancer, but cancer feeds on sugar and hormones like testosterone. Once they're sure it hasn't spread they usually stop the ADT, but he will likely need testosterone injections to normalize the levels. They normally don't like giving those until a couple of years after the original treatment, for fear of triggering the cancer to come back. It's a balancing act as to how cautious his medical team will be. The fact that he even attempted to play last season was a huge undertaking by him, since the treatments will leave him exhausted and feeling weak. We don't know what exact treatments he actually had because it varies, but it was likely a combination of surgery and radiation. It's enough of a worry that the team might be concerned about his long term viability of still being a hard hitting aggressive player. He did show up for the Playoffs and did well, so it's sad to see them move off him. I'm not sure they'll get anything better with the cap space they have. It's clear that Joshua is a fighter, and loved playing in Van, so I wish him well in Toronto.
