## Resource

The Cup has been awarded and NHL teams are getting down to business! Matt and Blake wonder aloud when the Canucks might make the first big player move of the Sedins front office era, whether it's a trade of a veteran before the draft or the re-signing of any players from last season. The guys tackle the notion of acquiring size in the NHL, as the Hurricanes get some notoriety for depending on smaller players. Cam Robinson joins from Elite Prospects with his latest from around the NHL, weighing in on the likelihood of a Canucks trade in the near future and their level of urgency on that file. He gets into the possibility of Carlolina's continuing interest in EP40, and whether the Canes have unlocked the secret to surviving the NHL playoffs with undersized contributors. Then it's a deep dive into some big swings for the Canucks with the 24th overall pick, including a Russian giant, a "diet Stenberg", and an American Blazer in Kamloops. Then Matt and Blake wrap up the show with a look at the day that was and the day to come at the World Cup.. Exciting draws galore yesterday, while the superpowers start today! Plus, is Canada going to get the injured players back in time for Qatar?? Then, the baseball story and the Lions' preparations for Touchdown Kelowna!
