Farhan and Drancer return with a new VANcast on a very busy day in Vancouver, after team president Jim Rutherford introduced Patrik Allvin as the new General Manager. The guys discuss what Allvin brings to the organization, the hiring of Émilie Castonguay as assistant general manager, and what other moves Rutherford might have up his sleeve as the Canucks continue to rebuild not only the team, but the front office as well.

The guys also praise the work of third string goalie Spencer Martin and they provide an update on all the players currently in COVID-19 protocol and they give their picks for the conference finals this weekend in the NFL.
