Ryan talks about how Andrei Kuzmenko needs to be a yearly one season contract sniper for every N...

On again, off again Canucks find a way to stay playoff relevant again this week.

Brock Boeser apparently could have been moved for a first round pick, Elias Pettersson is returning to form and the Calgary Flames make us mad.

Vancouver played in Calgary this week and it was bad blood all over the place: scrums, penalties, coaches yelling, and playoff intensity.

We're back on the podcast channels once again and with a new home.

Area 51 Sports Network presents The PP1 Podcast!

This week we discuss:

Ovechkin is 12 goals away from the Gretzky record, can he hit 1k, and is there another player even remotely close to flirting with the record in his career?

Conor Garland the workhorse, the switcheroo guru, the straw stir in the drink for the Canucks this season.

Presented in concert with THPN and Draft Kings Pick Six: The PP1 Podcast

This week we air out some laundry on the current state of the Vancouver Canucks and how it just isn't good enough. The team we saw a season ago compared to today is drastically different and the games look forgettable.

Trade talks, infighting in the locker room between the star players, and expecting Quinn Hughes to be everything to the Canucks just aren&#...
