Did anything happen this weekend?

It was a wild few days around the NHL with some big games on the ice and some major news off of it. The Vancouver Canucks finally made the big changes that their fan base was begging for as both GM Jim Benning, Head Coach Travis Green, and others were let go on Sunday. We now also know that Bruce Boudreau is going to be the next Head Coach of the team.

Frank and Jason broke everything down today on the pod. Frank gave some potential candidates for the now vacant GM position as well.

Oh, and Frank casually broke the Alain Vigneault firing while we were recording.

They also hit on some of the big games that happened over the last 48 hours and brought in Tyler Yaremchuk for 'Buy or Sell'.
