Four-time Juno winner, two-time provincial basketball champion, and world log rolling champion Mike Rogerson hitting switches and conducting things. First of all, thank you to everybody who shouted out our draft coverage over the course of the weekend. It was a long shift on Friday night. They do have to get a handle on the length of this first round. Oh my goodness. And again on Saturday with the Canucks holding those two early picks in the second round, but got a lot of nice notes.
So thank you to everybody who partook in our coverage, the regular showtime on Friday at night. And of course, early, early Saturday morning, Morning. Also, I don't know about you, but I've met so many people here on the streets of Vancouver. Because we're out, right? We're watching the World Cup. We're on Granville. We're downtown. And the vibe is just, it's out of this world. I mean, everyone's so happy.
I actually escorted Belgium to their hotel. Oh, really? Yeah. Friday, yes, or whatever day it was. Yeah, I got out of work and I realized the police escort was right behind me on Hornby with the buses. I was like, okay, I'll take you guys down there. It's no problem. Yeah, sure.
Just follow him. He knows where he's going. I come out of a breakfast restaurant on Canby on Wednesday because we're going to Switzerland, Canada. So you've got to get a hearty breakfast in you because you know you're going to be partaking. And I hear, hey, Secaris, like right in the middle of Canby. Shout out to longtime audience member Momin, who came up, said hello, loves the show, loves the Canucks coverage, obviously was on a high with everyone heading to the match or heading downtown. Shout out Johnny and Jason, father-son combo. We met Carter, Vic at Mahoney's, and then... So we're having lunch by the water on Wednesday after the match because my buddy's in town from back east, and he's like, look, he's like, we've been with 50-some thousand people.
We've been to Granville. A little more peace and quiet, like something by the water would be nice. So we go down for lunch on the water. Look at the three guys beside us. One of them goes, hey, Sequeira, what's going on? I was like, man, you guys look like hockey players. And they're like, well, we are. And I'm like, oh, who do you play for? And he says, New Jersey. So shout out to North Vancouver's Angus Cruikshank, member of the New Jersey Devils, his buddies Carter and Johnny. We had a nice guy. I'm forever amazed when professional hockey players – and these were all three professional hockey players who grew up on the North Shore – They follow Canucks coverage. They follow the show. They want to know about the Canucks, right?
Like they're born Canucks fans. They grow up Canucks fans. And so they retain an interest, even if they happen to compete against the Vancouver Canucks fans.
They all follow. Yeah, exactly. When NHL players say, I try to tune out the noise. They try. They do not successfully do it. They can't help but love the noise.
Well, but the younger ones, and these guys are all young, you know, early to mid-20s. Like, you know, they grew up in a world where they're fans of a certain team. There's all sorts of content about that team. And so they follow the content. They follow the team through the media that's around them. And so thank you to those three guys. And best of luck to all of them as they begin their new hockey seasons later this summer. Let's get to our daily poll question. After a busy morning for the Vancouver Canucks, Nils Hoaglander to the Nashville Predators for a third-round pick in 2029. Is that a good deal for the Canucks? You can vote yes, you can vote no. Do so at the Sakaris and Price X and YouTube channels.
Nils Hoaglander's Vancouver Canucks career comes to a close after 342 games, 61 goals, 61 assists for a symmetrical 122 points, including...
