Nov 7, 2025: Demko down again? Trade winds for centres start to swirl

The Canucks were back on the ice for practice but Thatcher Demko wasn't! Matt and Blake dive into the mystery of Demko's day off, and what it means for the Canucks with back to back games this weekend. Will Jiri Patera make his Canucks debut?? The guys also look at some building rumours about Brayden Schenn's availability out of St Louis, and Ryan O'Reilly's potential availability in Nashville, and wonder if that's where the Canucks may turn for help. RinkWide's Jeff Paterson joins from Rogers Arena and has the latest on the Canucks lineup for tomorrow, including Boeser flipping wings and Räty getting his best offensive opportunity. Then it's TSN's Farhan Lalji with the football story, as the BC Lions look to continue their remarkable run and book a spot in the Grey Cup. Farhan tells us what the Lions need to do to correct their wobble from the Calgary game, and the likelihood of the Riders shaking off the rust to take down the CFL's hottest team. The guys wrap up with some baseball news, as free agency looms and a potential new Japanese star is looking at the Jays and Mariners. Plus, the MLS commish is in town for an ownership/stadium update and a Canadian teenager makes NCAA hoops history!Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: It's never ordinary!
