This week in anguish:

  • The actual hockey this week was pretty miserable, but the Canucks for Kids telethon is coming up and Ardella investigates whether the Canucks and Vancouver are as charitable as we feel like they/we are. The results are…not stellar.

  • The realistic options for this year’s trade deadline range from mediocre to disastrous, so Tristan retreats into trade deadlines past to see how much of a role they played in constructing championship-calibre teams in ’94 and ’11. 

  • Adrian Aucoin teaches us how to treat our current enigmatic Russian with tales of Bure and Mogilny, and gives Tristan a new fantasy scenario for Tryamkin’s triumphant return. 

  • We go clambering up Newell Brown’s family tree in this week’s How Did I Not Know That?
