I Can Tell That We Are Gonna Be Friends (448)
After 450+ episodes, eleven years, seven PON Christmas Parties, and three playoff appearances by the Vancouver Canucks, we are calling it a day at Pucks On Net. Ryan, Arash and Geeta get together this week to talk about their decision to end the podcast and prepare for next week's final episode. Ryan chats about his weekend in Las Vegas, the gang navigates pre-show technical difficulties, and chat about the Vancouver Canucks' slog to the finish line with whatever "playoff hopes" remain. We'll see you next week for the final episode. Buy us a coffee if you're feeling generous: buymeacoffee.com/pucksonnet or show your support one last time at Patreon.com/pucksonnet

The Vancouver Canucks entered the trade deadline under-performing with several pending UFA's that could be shipped out for nice draft picks and prospects in an effort to rebuild their slumping franchise. And just like all those past trade deadlines, the 2025 deadline was no exception. Ryan and Arash get together this week reeling from another disappointing trade deadline in Vancouver. They look at the contradicting comments made by Patrik Allvin, the team's inability to generate any offense (AT ALL), and if they can make it into the playoffs. They also discuss the big changes in Boston and Aaron Ekblad's twenty-game suspension for PED's. They also play Sauce It? or Toss It? And answer some great listener questions.

Geeta and Ryan hop on the call this week with PON Black Ace Matt to gear up for the NHL trade deadline on Friday, March 7. They outline what they hope to see from the Vancouver Canucks as their underwhelming season has them on the outside of the playoff picture. They break down another tough week for not only Elias Pettersson, but the entire Canucks team.
