The Canucks open the season with a 5-1 win over Calgary, and while the score flatters, Demko’s brilliance and Chytil’s chaos were the real storylines. Jamie and Bik talk about Garland and Chytil's chemistry, the PK featuring eight forwards, and the debate over Vancouver’s 2C continues. Dimitri Filipovic and Brendan Batchelor join to break down Demko’s workload, the Oilers matchup, and wild moments from around the league — including Sharks-Golden Knights madness and Gibson’s rough Red Wings debut.
