May 17 2021 - a podcast by TSN 1040

The start of another week with so much to unpack from a jam packed weekend of sports.

The Welcome Matt dives back into Matt’s report last Friday that former Canuck Geoff Courtnall had been approached by the Aquilini’s about a position in the teams front office. Matt references the rape accusation that Courtnall faced during his playing days while with the Washington Capitals, while also questioning why Courtnall would be considered for a position with zero experience working in an NHL front office.

Ben Kuzma from the Province follows the Welcome Matt, and gives the latest he’s heard about the Courtnall news and breaks down just what Courtnall envisions his role being within the Canucks organization. 

John Shannon joins after Hashtags (the best and worst of Twitter), and gives his insight on the Courtnall rumour as well drops a nugget about whether or not Jim Rutherford would be interested in the Canucks general manager position.

The Price is Right puts a spotlight on the points the Canucks are getting over these meaningless games and how it could hurt the team in getting one of the top defencemen available in the top-5 of the NHL draft. 

Jeff Paterson joins for his first hit of the week and speculates that Alex Edler is playing his final days with the Canucks. J Pat also gives his thoughts on Courtnall possibly joining the Canucks front office, stating that he would be okay with giving the former Canuck an advisors position. 

We play Memo To on a Monday and wrap up the show with all the Errors and Omissions.
