The guys are back and hockey is almost back as well. One of the signs that hockey is back is the annual 4th Line Podcast Divisional Previews! This week it gets kick started by looking at the Pacific division, including: - The Vancouver Canucks signed Thomas Vanek this week. Do they know how to properly tank? What will their goaltenders give them, as Jacob Markström is handed the reigns in net? - The Vegas Golden Knights actually get to play hockey soon. Will their defense be enough to carry them? - The Los Angeles Kings are a team that used to be really good. How do they get back there again? - The Arizona Coyotes made a lot of changes this offseason. Are the acquisitions of Derek Stepan, Niklas Hjalmarsson and Antti Raanta going to put them into the playoffs? - Mike Smith takes over as the #1 goalie in Calgary. How much of a change is that from last season? Will their defense be enough to carry them? - The San Jose Sharks lost Patrick Marleau, but how big of a loss is that anyways? - As they returned to the playoffs, will the Oilers now capture the division title? - The Ducks lost of defensemen, but gained a backup goalie. Can they hold off the Edmonton Connor McDavid's? Carl and Joel also announce the very exciting fact that they have joined the Alberta Podcast Network powered by ATB.
