I have been a die har Canucks fan since the late 2000s and early 2010s. As an immigrant, I wasn’t in Canada during the late 1990s and early 2000s so my Knowledge of the WCE era is limited to just Wikipedia and fan discussion forums. This podcast did a deep dive back in Canucks history, and...Read full review »

Surprising in depth. Learned a lot.

What a fun listen! - except when it brought back my anger for blowing that Minnesota series. Strongly recommend for any long time Canucks fan! Interesting and entertaining to hear and reminisce about how things developed between the 1994 and 2011 cup runs. Do another one! How about 1989 Game 7...Read full review »

What a blast from the past! Great work Rintoul & GoGoat by putting this together. What a cool concept of podcast, it’s like an audio documentary!

As a hockey fan for 35 years these types of hockey programs are much appreciated. The amount of detail that went into this series is amazing. As a fan of hockey history, I thank you!

Having been a fan all of my life, the era of the west coast express was the best by far! This was a fantastic picture of those years. The participation of players, coaches and management was great. I hope you’ll follow up with the Sedin’s era!

So glad I found this podcast! As a Canucks fan who only got into hockey solely because of the WCE, this brought back some incredible memories. I hope there’s a season 2 on the Sedins and then the 2011 cup run!

Expertly written and edited it brought back so many memories for me. As an ardent fan of the Canucks it filled in so many memories of mine that time has faded. Mo, Bert and Nazzy. They were the best line this team has ever produced.

Unreal!!!! Need to make another series of the next era…Sedins….cup run!

Super informative and enjoyable. Great to hear from people who were involved in some of the biggest decisions, and most exciting hockey in Canuck history. I just want Scotty to keep going and do the from 90-present day!

If you’re a Canucks fan, this is a must listen! A perfect mix of exceptional journalism, great story telling, and a good dose of nostalgia for Canucks fans who watched the west coast express during those amazing years.

Not a big podcast guy, nothing was really able to hold my attention for longer than a couple of episodes. Then i found out what Rintoul had been up to, cooking. Graduating from high school in 1999 i was a little young and naïve to understand all the nuances that were happening around the Canucks...Read full review »

The WCE era was so amazing and so heartbreaking and Scotty really captures it. Amazed he got all the key players to talk about it in such a real way. Best sports documentary I have heard in ages. Thank you Scotty, I needed to remember this era
Long time clone via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/27/23
Great podcast covering the rise and fall of the West Coast Express. Goes in depth on the vibe/mood of the Canucks franchise before any of the three even get to Vancouver. Very easy listen with high quality production and clipped interviews weaved between the narration by Scott. Highly...Read full review »

Highly recommend to any Canucks fan. It was great to relive those times, they were a lot of fun but also a lot of heartbreak. That was such a fun and exciting team, nice to hear from all the players back then. I hope Scotty does another, thanks for an amazing listen!

It sounded like there was going to be more episodes. Is there only 8?

Really enjoying listening to this Scott and looking forward to more Canucks productions. As a kid who grew up in the 70’s and 80’s are you thinking of doing a podcast about the Roy Dewalt/Melvyn Fernandez BC Lions and the transition form Empire Stadium to BC Place. What an atmosphere when it had...Read full review »

I live in Australia and these years are very fuzzy in my memory. We get limited information here and I never understood the background going’s on.

For any hockey fan. Very well done look at the Canucks from the 94’ cup lose up through the early 2000’s and the west coast express. Mixed in clips of all the main people involved. Well produced and masterfully done!

We always look forward to Fridays but now even more so with this fantastic documentary podcast. Scott Rintoul and guests of that era bring back back the good and the bad moments that stick out in WCE history and great tie bits that have come out in this podcast.

UNREEL: West Coast Express chronicles the tumultuous times of the Vancouver Canucks in the late 90’s/00’s in great detail. It is informative and entertaining.

Scott Rintoul clearly has put in the work on this. The depths this series goes is incredible. A must listen for any Canucks fan or hockey fan really. No stone left unturned from it seems every angle leading up to WCE during and after. This story will win awards.
HankTheTank10 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/11/23
What a great look back at this era in Canucks history. Scott does a superb job of researching and narrating this unlikely yet fascinating journey. I hope there are many more stories that he tackles in the future.
Tunstall Bay via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/10/23
It’s nice to hear the whole story of what happened to the Canucks during that era. The ups and downs and the frustrations and the silver lining of everything that happened.
Ahriman77 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/09/23
I listened to both episodes back to back as it was so good to hear more about that era

Born and raised in Edmonton I bleed Orange and Blue but enjoy all stories hockey related. Since moving to Vancouver in 97 I was front and Center watching this team unfold. I find the reporting amazing and the interview clips from those around the game in-depth and very personal. Scott Rintoul...Read full review »

Brings back great memories! I went to Moscrop in the early 2000’s. Would leave at lunch to go down to 8 rinks and watch these guys practice and get autographs. I absolutely love this era of Canucks hockey! Keep up the good work Scotty!

If you’re a fan of professional hockey, whether you’re a Canucks fan or not, this is a very well produced podcast. With NHL vets like Wayne Gretzky, Trevor Linden, Marcus Naslund, Todd Bertuzzi, Brendan Morrison, and many more being interviewed, I can’t wait to hear the rest of the series. Plus,...Read full review »

With so many contextual details and personal stories that contribute to this period in hockey history — this wasn’t an easy onion to peel — but it was done masterfully. Loved it.

Best review I can give you Scott. My wife doesn’t like listening to podcasts when we walk the dog. I put on episode 1 today anyway. We get home from the walk, she starts working again, I’m in the kitchen making lunch and start listening to episode 2. She comes in and tells me I can’t listen...Read full review »
