The introduction to our May bonus episode on the 1997/98 Vancouver Canucks.
Paul and Ryan discuss the 97/98 Canucks’ season. An incredibly eventful season full of trades, injuries, firings and nonsensical hirings. They discuss the entire season. From the Canucks’ picks at the 1997 NHL Draft all the way to the four game winless streak that ended the regular season. Arguably the most depressing season in Canucks history, they touch on:
Mark Messier singing and his influence on ownership
Tom Renney and Pat Quinn’s November dismissals
Trevor Linden’s trade to Long Island
and the myriad of deals that littered the season.
