In this episode, Irfaan Gaffar joins me following Quinn Hughes' return to Rogers Arena, where he was booed throughout the night before reaching 500 career points on the game-winning goal against Vancouver. We talk about the reaction to Hughes, his departure from the Canucks, and how the players Vancouver acquired in the trade are adjusting to their new team.
The Vancouver Canucks have also lost 10 games in a row, but is that really what fans should be worried about? We discuss Manny Malhotra's efforts to establish a new culture, the young players showing signs of promise, and what progress should actually look like for a team that's finally embracing a rebuild.
