Presented in concert with THPN, Draft Kings Sports book (Promo code: THPN) and Raycon (promo code: THPN). The Canucks are an absolute unit right now and we brought in a guy who was no stranger to a team unit, Aaron Volpatti. He talks about the creation of his book "FIGHTER", the process to get to the point of writing and what he's doing now. We get into the current state of protective equipment, why the Canucks are doing so well, and how the Sedins are still incredibly fit. Was Aaron's...

The Hockey Podcast Network, Draft Kings Sportsbook, and Raycon audio bring you THE Canucks podcast that delivers *checks notes* the goods. This week, Ryan and Ted do a mini watch party where the Canucks put up 10 goals on a Sharks team that deserved it. We chat neck guards and other protective layers of sports equipment and how unlikely the NHL will be to adopt it. Ted challenges Ryan to a mustache battle as well as a mental exercise of trading Brock Boeser now that his value is what we've...

Presented in concert with The Hockey Podcast Network and Draft Kings Sports book app . It must be Canucks season because we're talking Tyler Myers, Brock Boeser and how Quinn Hughes isn't getting enough credit. The Canucks have had a pleasant start to their season and with that comes the fan's criticism of... the media. Go figure. Why do we care so much about what the media thinks? Ryan does a deep dive, well it's deep if you're short, on Tyler Myers vs. Luca Sbisa: Pizza Delivery Breakdown....

Brought to you in concert with THPN and Draft Kings Sportsbook App promo code THPN. This week Ryan and Ted get into the yearly Canucks trade target and how Ryan is kind of fed up with talking about it. We get into the team's hot start and the fall from grace game against the Flyers. There are some bright spots and some consistency awards to be given out in net with Demko and DeSmith. We talk about other NHLers in the twilight of their careers that might be good targets for the Canucks but...

Presented in concert with The Hockey Podcast Network and Draft Kings Sportsbook, promo code THPN. So the Canucks played a game and they won! The stats go heavy after one game and we have stories for days: Brock Boeser nets four goals and we all just fall back in love with Brock and his Redemption Tour. (Ryan makes an album for him). Quinn Hughes puts up three points and apparently Ryan wasn't a fan Pettersson goes on a tear and unleashes sauce mode Everyone is physical Ryan informs Ted...

As if four seasons wasn't hard enough, we have decided that FIVE seasons is the new challenge in Canucks podcasting. PP1 Podcast returns with Ted Wong and Ryan Hank to bring you the Canucks content you could only dream about. Casey DeSmith is a Canuck now? We had the inside track on his play from our summer guest, comedian Joe Bartnick. He wasn't a fan but maybe things will be different in Vancouver. The guys chat about the simplicity of killing flies right now, Ryan's completely random Nike...

No technical difficulties this week. PP1 Podcast is brought to you by THPN and DraftKings Sportsbook App. Ryan and Ted had plenty to chat about with the NHL Draft, free agency, and an OEL buyout having taken place, and they loaded up. Vancouver got their guy in Tom Willander and sometimes safe is the right thing. They took some swings deeper in the draft but overall, not a terrible showing for their prospect pool. We get into the OEL buyout and how it needed to happen to open up any chance of...

Presented on The Hockey Podcast Network. This week, we forgo the normal hockey chitchat and focus on a life issue: our friend Whit Penner has beat Dick Cancer and he came on the show to share his story, the journey to get to the diagnosis, the surgery, the aftermath, and everything in between. Whit has been a great supporter of the show even before it was a thing and he's an active member of the local ball hockey community. No punches were pulled in this week's show so make sure you're ready...

THPN presents PP1 Podcast. Hockey has never sounded better and it just felt inevitable that these two worlds would collide. Chris Faber of Canucks Army/Canucks Conversation joined the guys to talk all things NHL Draft as well as the Abbotsford Canucks and he never disappoints. He rocks his EP40 Ikea CA tee (which Ryan also owns from the day). Tons to get into with the upcoming draft and where the Canucks might be at 11. He gets into some interviews and how he ran the table with Dylan of THPN...

Can you believe Ted and Ryan have been doing this show for four seasons? We can't believe it either. In their final appearance on Crier Media as a hockey podcast they deliver what might be the greatest episode of all-time. Ryan asks Ted if Fathers Day should be moved to a better month, how he and JT Miller are alike when it comes to sports and maybe just maybe Connor Bedard becomes a Canuck after his rookie deal. We get into exactly what a blowout in hockey looks like and if we're even close...

Even though the Canucks haven't been in the hockey picture for a few weeks, there was no lack of stuff to chat about. Ryan and Ted went to a concert last week and had some interesting news from the show. Some interesting comparisons were made. Ryan informs Ted about a fun fact about Pandas and how they're rented to zoos. Quinn Hughes will likely be the next Canucks Captain according to Rick Tocchet but the guys make a case for him anyway. We do a one-off Bo or JT pick, no money involved. Ted...

Presented in concert with Crier Media. Ryan briefly touches on a topic he definitely isn't into, or is he? No, he's not. Ted updates everyone on his status after heart surgery and apparently has normal poops. Is going after Damon Severson like owning a Toyota Tacoma? Ted makes a great comparison, an analogy if you will. The guys get into who the next color analyst voice should be on the Canucks broadcast. What will it take for the circus in Vancouver to be over? Ted has some ideas. There are...

We pride ourselves at PP1 with the guests we get and this week's show is no different. Dave Jackson, he of over 1500 NHL games officiated, joined Ryan to chat hockey and reffing the game. From the All Star Game and just the celebration of stars to maintaining a standard of calls throughout the season, there was a lot to unpack. How do the playoffs get called compared to the regular season? Who had the best chirps? Does the league have it out for the Canucks (they don't and Dave explains)....

The Canucks may be super depressing but we find a way to be... less depressing. PP1 Podcast welcomes Canucks Army's Cody Severtson, he of the #SevertSystem gambling program (kinda real, kinda not). The guys get into what's even left to be excited about for the Canucks at the end of the season, Connor Bedard maybe being a Canuck, and how most of the team looks checked out. Ryan brings up the moon and the huge conspiracy behind that. The Masters are this weekend and the guys chat about the...

Crier Media presents PP1 Podcast. Do you realize the weight of that sentence? WOW! Ryan is joined this week by Brad Karp of K96.3 in Kelowna and they muck it up about pedicures, feet pics for cash, train robberies gone wrong, and Quinn Hughes up for the Norris. Mixed in with our Canucks talk we go over Maple Leafs/Habs fan guy (he's both), how bad are the Boston Bruins really? And french bus rides. We cover the usual arguments like Damon Severson coming to the Canucks, trading Tyler Myers for...

Clay Imoo aka Canuck Clay joined Ryan this week on PP1 Podcast and if you know Clay, it didn't disappoint. We got into Team Pepsi vs. Team Coke and would Clay still promote the Canucks with either drink? There was talk about which Canucks team is currently in front of us via a reCaptcha graphic or if we should focus our frustration on Fanatics as the NHL's new jersey supplier. Has the skate jersey been enough of a distraction to keep people from losing it on the Canucks? Possibly. Clay...

Safe to say the Canucks are out of the tank race and have put their chances to rest this season. Brian Mack of Virgin Radio Kelowna joined Ryan this week to talk about well... the Canucks, curling, Nickelback and Brad Marchand. We also got into the coaching change that the Canucks have taken on and what that likely means going forward. Bmack leaves the show to take a leak LIVE on air which made for good video, not necessarily audio but it was entertaining. Ryan stumps Bmack on EA Sports NHL...

If you thought there was no way to get more West Coast Express stories from the Canucks, you'd be wrong. Ryan Hank is joined by Scott Rintoul to chat about his amazing podcast series that launched starting with the most famous line the Canucks have produced: the West Coast Express. We get into the Messier era and how it was perceived quite differently than it actually panned out, the Minnesota Wild series and the foreshadowing of 2011, we talk golden retrievers, banana bread and bizarre car...

So first off, Ted's having surgery on his heart. Big deal, big deal. We wish him the best. Jordan Bowman of Trust the Process joins Ryan for some Canucks talk. We discuss the b*mb in Kelowna from the week that was (a real one), we talk about neat crime-fighting initiatives in the 'Lona and what could really change it up and of course we talk Canucks. The Bo Horvat trade really moved things along in the rebuild and then three weeks later (this week) it all came undone with the pick from the Bo...

What happens when you get the heartbeat of Vancouver's sports darling Donnie and Dhali (Ryan Henderson we're talking about) and you mix in PP1 Podcast? Mayhem? Yes. Hilarity? Also yes. The guys chat about OEL, the J.T. Miller trade that probably won't happen before the trade deadline and why any other massive trade doesn't happen. Shea Weber gets traded to the Coyotes and maybe NHL money laundering is real??? Bally Sports is in big trouble and the NHL might have to be ponying up some cash...
