Chapter 3: How important is the development of the Canucks' young core?
Whoa, what?
Yeah, I was not okay with it.
That's like when, I remember, this is so stupid, but I remember watching Home Improvement as a kid, and they said crick instead of creek. That really threw me for a loop.
My wife says crayon instead of crayon. What?
What?
Yeah, it's very common in the United States.
That's wild.
And my wife's from Niagara Falls, Ontario. So like border town.
Yeah. Yeah.

Chapter 4: What insights can Dan Rosen provide about the playoffs?
It's like, think about like crayon.
Yeah.
Yeah. I've never heard that before. Oh, dude, it's like nails on a chalkboard. I bet. The moment you hear it, I'm like, let's not ever get crayons ever again. I can't possibly. And the worst part about it is I'll be, she'll be like, yeah, crayon. I'll be like, you mean a crayon? And she'll be like, no, a crayon. Like, we're saying the same thing. I'm like, we are not saying the same thing.
How dare you?
Anyway, what's your favorite pasta shape?

Chapter 5: How does Vancouver's roster construction impact their future?
I mean, look, like, I'm not going to pretend I'm better than just, like, classic spaghetti. Spaghetti and meatballs. But I do love a stuffed pasta. I'm more of a ravioli than a tortellini guy, I would say. So I would say ravioli or just spaghetti. Spaghetti's amazing.
Spaghetti is amazing. And I'm going to pick something very similar. I'm picking Bucatini.
Oh, okay. Yeah, Bucatini's good.
Bucatini's like spaghetti, but better. Yeah. It just is. I don't know why.
Chapter 6: What are the critical factors for a successful offseason?
I like linguine. I like spaghetti.
I don't like linguine that much. I love linguine. I'm a spaghetti guy. I like fettuccine. I like Bucatini. I like Bucatini.
You know what I love, actually, I really like, is rigatoni.
Oh, yeah. I love rigatoni.
That actually might be my answer.
There's also, like, something like, I love Bucatini. I think it's the best one. But sometimes I just want penne.

Chapter 7: How do playoff matchups influence team strategies?
Sure.
It's just so easy to eat. Yep. And I like to, like, gather them on my fork. You know what I mean? Like, gather, like, a whole line of them on the fork. On the tines of the fork. There's something I find, like, satisfying and childish about it.
Yeah.
So sometimes, like, a really simple penne pasta is delightful. Yeah, for sure. You're not wrong. Penne is like the safe. I also like Pacquieri. Like I like everything realistically.
Chapter 8: What are the implications of the Canucks' GM search?
I would say Penne is like the safe, reliable choice, but it's, it's never going to be like a jaw dropper, but it's good. It's always good. Okay. Well also Keelan Mack text in, are you making your own ravioli from scratch? Cause that would be very cool. What a great activity to do while listening. to Canucks Talk here on Sportsnet 650. I love to make pasta. It's super fun. It's super great.
Anyways, I was going to go into the inbox here.
saskatchewan joe texts in in your opinion is rj still the front runner and then he clarifies to me and like not just the front runner but actually in your opinion the best for the job and we've got a few variations on this question of like okay well blue sky it here guys right like if you were running this process what does the ideal outcome look like and i know you've made the point on twitter and i'm sure we've talked about it on the show at some point as well the kind of
Heavy hitter with lots of weight, hockey guy as president. Ray Ferraro and Kevin BX are names that come up paired with whatever super analytics nerd. you can find to kind of fill the Eric Tolsky role. I think that makes a lot of sense. I am curious though. That's my like number one favorite play for sure.
But we'll, we'll scale this down a little bit to get like somewhat more in the realm of reality. Cause it doesn't seem like that option is on the board necessarily right now. I mean, you never know. Like the process is still playing out, but it doesn't necessarily seem like we're going in that direction. Always such a classic Canucks talk bit, by the way, where it's like,
You know, yeah, I mean, that is a good idea, but the Canucks will never do it.
So let's move on. We apply the Canucks adjustment to our ideas. Yeah, because I do. I agree with you. That sounds awesome. But let's say working with the Ryan Johnson as front runner reported by you reported by Elliott Friedman. You know, Jim Rutherford has spoke very highly last Friday about Ryan Johnson said they have a very strong candidate internally. Yes. So and I like Ryan Johnson a lot.
But, you know, I'm thinking back also to our conversations about where the league is going, the education track record for different candidates around the league, all of those things. I guess my question would be, is there a way to have your cake and eat it too? You give Ryan Johnson the promotion because you want to keep him in the organization, but you add other parts to the front office.
And I'm open to what position that may be to kind of compensate for some of the weaknesses of his candidacy.
