Andrew and Jeff kicked off the show talking about Jim Rutherford and what they took from his press conference today. We heard clips of Jim talking about how he plans to fill out the front office. They talked about what the timeline leading to when we may start to see moves made with the roster.  Harm Dayal of the Athletic joined Wadden and JPat to talk about the news of the day. Talked about the strategy of Jim Rutherford moving forward based on his press conference from today. Says it's hard to base any opinions on the first 20 games of the season. Now that the team is rolling, you still won't make any decisions on the first four games of the Boudreau era. Says by January, the Boudreau bump will be over. Really likes the timeline do decipher what this team is and isn't. Talked about where the team could go with the front office. Wonders if JR will go with someone in his immediate circle or if he will find someone bright outside. Mentions the name, Laurence Gilman. Talked about the job MacFarland did in Colorado with the defence and how that could be on his radar. Harm feels that Rutherford is well aware with what he needs and what he has. Will be fascinating to see how he handles the challenge. Talked about how JR handled questions about Quinn Hughes. Talked about the changes the Canucks need to make to fix the culture of the organization. On the other side of Harm we hear more from Jim Rutherford. He explains why one of the hard parts of the job is managing up and dealing with the owner. JPat said he didn't seem the least bit fazed with Francesco sitting right beside him. We also hear from the owner on what the last couple of weeks have been like for the organization. He explains why there was such an overhaul. The guys talked about what kind of person Jim Rutherford is looking for to be the next GM of the Canucks.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Andrew and Jeff talked about Bruce Boudreau and how his tenure with the Canucks has started. They talked about the utilization of the team's stars.  We heard from the coach after his media availability and he talked about how he wants to operate the penalty kill. The guys talked about how much they liked what he has to say but that now it's up to the players. We also heard from Quinn Hughes. On the other side, we heard from J.T. Miller, who described that coming to the rink will be fun now. Wadden and JPat broke that down. The guys run through some candidates for the vacant GM role with the Canucks. Laurence Gilman is a popular candidate amongst the guys and fans.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week in anguish: - Has achieved peak irrelevance by recording a 1½ hour audio interpretation of a franchise listlessly circling the drain, entirely unaware that massive, long-overdue changes were a few hours away. - Wait - weren't the Abbotsford Canucks supposed to be good at least? - Ardella has a new Google search term emotional temperature: jokes. - We crunch the numbers on Petey's generosity. - Halcyon Canucks quotes from days when we might have sucked nearly as hard, but we still managed to have fun doing it.  - Jason Farris is a very smart man who wrote some ostensibly very smart things about the traits of successful hockey organizations. Unfortunately, everything keeps coming up Bowman in the end. - Wait again - what actually went down around the 2015 firings of Laurence Gilman and Lorne Henning? (Sorry, Eric Crawford.) - 15 years of Canucks' talent evaluation misadventures as exemplified by the top 107 current KHL scoring leaders. - Random insights derived from searching the terms "scott melanby" in the Vancouver Sun and Province archives from 2008-2011. - Francesco told us it would be darkest before the dawn. In the dying moments of the Benning era, Tristan carves out a slice of his hockey heart and gives it to another, adopting the Connecticut Whale of the Premier Hockey Federation as his first ever Team I Am Also Cheering For. - I thought we were playing the Boston Pride later that afternoon. Turned out it was the Minnesota Whitecaps. And we won! This concludes Ep. 0 of This Week in Connecticut.    Thanks for listening! This episode supports the Hockey4Youth foundation and HerosHockey.

They also discuss the Noah Hanifin/Vancouver Canucks rumours swirling thanks to a certain blog featuring thirty or so thoughts. Can the All-Star defenceman be dealt to Vancouver? Do they have enough assets to make it happen? Or will they give up too many key pieces of their rebuild. They talk about what is happening in Toronto. Kyle Dubas is the general manager, Laurence Gilman his assistant and Lou Lamoriello is on Long Island, doing everything in his power to keep John Tavares in Islanders' orange by July 1st. Finally, they discuss the potential of Ryan Kesler missing a season, the video game addiction controversy and Evander Kane's big money deal in the Bay Area. Is it a gamble? Or what you need to offer a player of that calibre after an impressive yet short stint with San Jose? Enjoy! Listen to this week's 5 Minutes for Paying for our $5+ Patreon backers.

It may be the most remarkable season ever in North American pro team sports. The Vegas Golden Knights of the NHL are into the Western Conference Finals.  One of the people responsible for helping draft the NHL’s expansion-draft philosophy is Laurence Gilman. Laurence has been in the management of the Winnipeg Jets, the Phoenix Coyotes and the Vancouver Canucks. He’s now working on the dark side, doing radio in Vancouver.

Laurence Gilman can envision Alain Vigneault pacing behind the bench of the Calgary Flames next year. Gilman says the Flames would be a good fit for the former head coach of the New York Rangers.

Laurence Gilman feels Bo Horvat has all the attributes to be the next captain of the Canucks, but also admits he has some concern about the environment in the Canucks room next year without the Sedins. Laurence envisions a very long and tough season coming, and is curious how many young players can realistically be integrated

Darren Dreger doubts another late-season swoon will force Canucks ownership to pull the plug on Jim Benning and/or Trevor Linden, but admits there's always a very small change. Darren suggests Laurence Gilman is a front-runner for the GM job in Carolina

Laurence Gilman discusses the Brock Boeser injury, including the cap implications of his bonuses. Laurence also gets into the options with Loui Eriksson

Laurence Gilman discusses his time with Alain Vigneault in Vancouver, and also takes a deep dive into the Canucks drafting struggles during the Gillis era

Laurence Gilman says adding Tyler Motte and Brendan Leipsic is consistent with Jim Benning’s MO in the first few years of his tenure…but wonders why the club is still doing this

Laurence Gilman suggests Jim Benning has always been Trevor Linden's guy, but wonders if ownership needed to be fully convinced. Laurence says the Canucks prospect pool has clearly improved under Benning, and that's why the club is selling hope and the future....but Laurence also says the club is a long ways away

Laurence Gilman says Erik Gudbranson likely will get paid in the free-agent market so the Canucks have to contend with that, but also have to deal with the reality that his trade value may not be as high as they'd like...and, that Gudbranson offers a physical element that the Canucks are lacking

Laurence Gilman says he's not a fan of pugilism in hockey, but admits toughness takes many forms and is a firm believer in "the game within the game" and that it calls for a level of accountability among players. Laurence discusses where the idea of making teams pay on the power play evolved from

Includes: guests Jeff Paterson (TSN 1040 Canucks Reporter), Laurence Gilman (former NHL Executive), and Clip of the Day.

Includes: guest Laurence Gilman (former NHL Executive), Canucks update, and Tell Me I'm Wrong.

Laurence Gilman suggests Travis Green is trying hard to keep his team propped up, despite recent struggles, hence why his postgame comments seem so positive. Laurence comments on the Canucks 1-6 slide, and on Brock Boeser's quick return from injury

Laurence Gilman discusses Jim Benning's contract situation, suggesting it's not nearly as difficult a situation as a lame-duck coach. Gilman also says Erik Gudbranson could very well receive a decent contract in free-agency

Laurence Gilman admits Nikolay Goldobin is a skilled player, but also says he's not a great skater and has a reputation for having an uneven work ethic..so Goldobin has to prove he deserves to stay in the lineup. Laurence likes the Dowd for Subban deal

Laurence Gilman says Derrick Pouliot is playing with confidence right now, but he wants to see more before opening up contract talks with the RFA. Gilman discusses Anders Nilsson's play and the effectiveness of Thomas Vanek

Laurence Gilman has liked what he's seen offensively from Derrick Pouliot, saying so far the trade looks good, but also cautions that Pouliot must prove that he can handle defensive duties over the long haul. Laurence says Jake Virtanen may have seen some complacency seep into his game, so a wake-up call via healthy scratches was warranted.

Laurence Gilman joins Matt and Blake in studio. Guests include Craig Button.

Laurence Gilman likes how Travis Green is handling Brock Boeser, including Tuesday night in Calgary where Boeser saw limited minutes. Laurence also discusses how important a legitimate starting goalie is to an NHL team

Laurence Gilman explains why the Canucks called up Thatcher Demko, how much cap room it creates, and why Demko was the player called up

Laurence Gilman tells the back story of the Canucks game seven loss in the 2011 Cup Final...and all about the notorious game eight in January of 2012

Laurence Gilman drops by and tells a few Alex Burrows stories, including a trade all-but-agreed to in 2009 (before Burrows signed a four-year deal), dealing with his on-ice antics, and his genuine side off the ice

Former Canucks assistant GM Laurence Gilman tells the tale of how Alex Burrows was nearly traded in 2009, before agreeing to a four-year, $8m deal at the last second

Laurence Gilman discusses the Canucks trade for Derrick Pouliot and the club's ongoing pursuit of an offensive defenseman. Laurence also tells some stories about opening-day roster hijinks and moves

Former Canucks exec Laurence Gilman says the NHL clearly was looking for veteran lineups for the China games, but it works in the Canucks favour as they can give bubble and younger players a longer look in North American preseason games. Gilman also discusses Olympic participatoin

Laurence Gilman feels the Canucks could have hardballed Bo Horvat and paid perhaps $500k per year less, but it wasn't worth the bad blood over a camp holdout. Laurence feels Jordan Subban can be a PP specialist in the NHL, but admits Subban isn't there yet

More with Laurence Gilman in studio.

Laurence Gilman says Vegas GM George McPhee understood Wednesday’s expansion draft was “an asset harvest” event, and McPhee used that leverage masterfully to his advantage
