In this episode, I break down everything Jim Rutherford said in his recent interview with Gary Mason of the Globe and Mail—and why I think this might be a game of 4D chess rather than a reckless act of frustration. I also respond to some of your thoughts on the drama. Sorry for the late upload—I was sidelined with an undisclosed lower-body injury this morning, but I’m good to go now.

In this episode I’m joined by fellow Canuck content creator DeanerHD. We react to last night’s game against the Washington Capitals, breaking down the key plays and performances. We also explore the Vancouver Canucks’ challenges, from a shaky defensive core, injuries, and locker room dynamics to potential trade targets. On top of that, we discuss strategies for addressing these issues and whether we should remain optimistic for the rest of the season. Hope everyone had a great new year!

In this episode I take a closer look at the rumoured drama surrounding the Vancouver Canucks dressing room. There’s been plenty of talk about a possible rift between star players Elias Pettersson and J.T. Miller, but nothing has been confirmed. I break down what’s being said and explore whether there’s any truth to the speculation. To help me navigate the situation, I’m joined by friend of the show, Carl, who shares his perspective on the rumours. At the end of the episode, I switch gears and ask Carl some of your burning questions about his current living situation. It's a good one! Apologies for the tardiness!

In this episode, I’m joined by Jeff Paterson, host of the Canucks post-game show RinkWide Vancouver and senior writer at Canucks Army. Jeff and I talk about why the Canucks are struggling to find success on home ice this season, Filip Hronek’s injury and the team’s defensive concerns, Nils Höglander’s slump and whether Patrik Allvin and Jim Rutherford might consider a trade, and possible line combinations for Elias Pettersson once J.T. Miller returns—including whether rookie Jonathan Lekkerimäki could be a fit. Thanks for listening, everyone!

In this episode, I talk about what’s really going on with Nils Höglander—does Rick Tocchet have it out for him? I also cover the Canucks’ need for defensive depth, Quinn Hughes’ Hart Trophy potential, and whether Cole Sillinger could be joining the team. On top of that, I share what I’ve learned since starting the nuckhead YouTube channel, discuss Tyler Myers’ basketball skills, and question if Thatcher Demko and Kevin Lankinen are the NHL’s top goalie duo.
I also explore whether Noah Juulsen is ready to level up, debate who’s the real best defenceman—Quinn Hughes or Cale Makar—and share my thoughts on Conor Garland and the J.T. Miller “situation.”
Oh, and I can't wait to see “Daddy Mäki" make "the mesh go smacky smacky" on a regular basis.

In this episode, I have a quick chat with Canucks Army writer and Canucks Conversation co-host, David Quadrelli. Can Kiefer Sherwood become the first player in NHL history to surpass 400 hits in a single season—or even 500?! Is it safe to say Elias Pettersson is officially “back”? And are Nils Höglander’s days with the Canucks numbered? Hope you’re all having a great week! Don’t miss Canucks Convo, live on YouTube and X every weekday at 2 PM PT!– Nuckhead

In this episode, I sit down with Dave Hall, a writer for Canucks Army who covers every prospect in the Vancouver Canucks’ system. We dive into a range of players, from the well-known (Jonathan Lekkerimäki, Tom Willander, and Elias Pettersson) to the nearly unheard of (Ty Mueller, Aku Koskenvuo, and Sawyer Mynio). We also chat about the lost art of the blue-line slap shot that once had penalty killers ducking for cover—think Sami Salo, Zdeno Chara, and Shea Weber.
But before any of that, I start off by airing my frustration with Los Angeles Kings forward Tanner Jeannot and his gutless, illegal check to the head of Brock Boeser.
Thanks for tuning in, everyone!

In this episode, I chat with Canucks Central and Canucks game host Satiar Shah. We share our thoughts on the Vancouver Canucks’ first ten games of the season and discuss whether they’re showing signs of being true Stanley Cup contenders or not. I ask Satiar for the latest scoop on when we might see Thatcher Demko back on the ice, and where he expects Dakota Joshua to slot into the Canucks’ lineup when he's back from injury. We also take a moment to give the vastly underrated Teddy Blueger his due and explore the chances of seeing Jonathan Lekkerimäki in the lineup this year. We dig into the building trade buzz around the team and analyze which defenders might be on the Canucks’ radar. Could it be Bowen Byram? Dante Fabbro? Damon Severson? Jakob Chychrun? And, of course, I had to get Satiar’s take on what might be going on with Vancouver’s superstar center, Elias Pettersson.
But that’s just the tip of the iceberg! There’s plenty more, so give it a full listen, follow Satiar Shah on X, and be sure to tune into Canucks Central on weekdays from 4 to 6 p.m. and after every Canucks game.
Thanks for listening, Nuckheads! 🫡

In this episode, I chat with Vancouver legend Clay Imoo, also known as Canuck Clay, about the Vancouver Canucks’ recent challenges. We discuss Vincent Desharnais’ inconsistent performances, Elias Pettersson’s mysterious issues affecting his play, and we even dream up our very own Canuck lineup combinations for when Dakota Joshua returns from injury. Clay also shares some of his amazing stories from his years as a Canucks superfan. Thank you so much for listening! Oh, and subscribe to Canuck Clay on YouTube. 🫡

In this episode, I chat with Carl about the Vancouver Canucks’ current three-game win streak, Elias Pettersson’s struggles (and when we think he’ll bounce back), the Quinn Hughes vs. Cale Makar debate, and the NHL's new "Global Series." Carl also ranks his top-5 Canucks of all time, and we dive into his terribly strange living situation. Hope y'all enjoy this one!– Nuckhead

In this episode, I reconnect with fellow Canucks content creator DeanerHD to catch up on everything Vancouver Canucks. We chat about the team’s offseason acquisitions, from Vincent Desharnais to Daniel Sprong, and discuss which young guns we’d like to see called up from Abbotsford—names like Arshdeep Bains and Kirill Kudryavtsev. We also break down the Canucks’ first few games of the 2024/25 season and share our boldest predictions for tonight’s matchup against the Florida Panthers. Enjoy!

In this episode, I share my boldest predictions for the new NHL season, from the Toronto Maple Leafs finally making it past the second round to Utah HC making the playoffs in their inaugural season. I’ll also be responding to your bold predictions, from Artūrs Šilovs winning the Calder Trophy to the Edmonton Oilers missing the playoffs. Plus, I’ll be reacting to last night’s season opener between the Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames. Apologies for the delay—had some upload issues, but we’re all set now. Also, sorry for swearing so much this episode! Thanks for tuning in, everyone!

In this episode I respond to a bunch of viewer-submitted Canuck-related hot takes and questions. I also apologize for leaving you guys hanging all summer without any explanation. I'm back now though and this time I mean business. Welcome to the second season of The Nuckhead Podcast– new episodes every Thursday morning at 5:30 PT!
Oh, and say it with me... THE VANCOUVER CANUCKS ARE GOOD!

In this episode, I chat with you—yes, you! I have separate calls with three fellow Nuckheads: Ryan from Hawaii (NavyRymar), Josiah from Calgary (VonHavok), and Travis from Burnaby (TLsnow44). We discuss the Canucks’ recent free agent signings, try our best to cope with losing Nikita Zadorov, share our memories from the past season, and set our expectations for the next one. If you’d like to be a guest on the podcast, send your name and city to [email protected]. Also, apologies for missing last week's episode—I was moving. Thanks for listening, everyone!

In this episode, I chat with Connor from the popular Vancouver-based YouTube channel “turning the tables.” As fellow die-hard Canucks fans, we discuss which free agents we hope to see back next season, share our favourite memories from the 2023/24 season, and we even dive into some music talk. Check out Connor’s channel—you’ll love it, especially if you’re a music nerd like me. Thanks for listening, everyone. Stay tuned for the new video coming out this evening!

In this (very short) episode, I wanted to share my thoughts on the new "30 for 30" documentary that aired on ESPN last week. "I'm Just Here for the Riot" covers the 2011 Stanley Cup riot in Vancouver following Game 7 of the Finals between the Vancouver Canucks and the Boston Bruins. In my opinion, some of the negative reviews it has received are driven by resurfaced anger, which is understandable. However, I believe this anger is leading to a misunderstanding of the filmmaker’s intent and that’s what I wanted to talk about. Hope you enjoy this shorter episode. Back to the regular scheduled programming next Thursday!

In this episode I’m joined by fellow content-creator, DeanerHD. We spend two hours chatting about all things Vancouver Canucks; from their heartbreaking game seven loss against the Edmonton Oilers to Elias Pettersson’s “knee injury.” We also try to solve their offseason puzzle by choosing which UFAs/RFAs we’d sign if we had the power to do so. Hope you enjoy this much longer instalment of the show! New videos coming next week!

In this episode, I chat with Pinholes Graham, a fellow content creator who, in my opinion, produces the best hockey-related videos on YouTube. If you haven't seen his work yet, start with his most popular video, "You Are Being Mythologized (Do Not Resist) – The Career of Carey Price," which has garnered over 130,000 views at the time of writing this. After that, dive into his captivating "Playoffs Past" series, where he explores nostalgic playoff matchups from the late nineties and early two-thousands – you won't regret it. Once you've finished, don't miss his hilarious "LOHL" series, where he straight-facedly covers an entirely fictitious league with absurd player names (and is only updated once a year, on April Fool's Day). Thanks for listening!
