Steve Ewen and Jonathan McDonald talk about Luongo, Schneider and much much more going into Friday’s Game 2 between the Canucks and San Jose Sharks.

Top prize for Vancouver?

admin — Wed, 01 May 2013 17:08:15 +0000

What’s the psyche of a city where the hockey team has tried, without success, to win the top prize for more than four decades?

Pretty good, says Jonathan McDonald. So-so, says Steve Ewen.

On Tuesday’s Province Sports podcast, the Legion of Blogs’ Jordan Bowman joins Jonathan McDonald to discuss the best of thelegionofblog.com, as well as the NHL’s sexiest men (according to Cosmpolitan, of course!).

Athletes as Role Models

On Friday’s Province Sports podcast, Steve and Jonathan discuss pro athletes as role models.

Also up for discussion is which California team we’d rather see the Canucks tackle in the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs.

Luongo Legacy

admin — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 22:59:04 +0000

Paul Chapman and Jonathan McDonald discuss Roberto Luongo’s legacy, and what would happen if McDonald dressed as a backup goalie. (Hint: He might just cry.)

Political Podcast Pundits

admin — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 18:26:06 +0000

On Friday’s podcast, Steve Ewen and Jonathan McDonald talk about what it would be like to have political leaders who get you fired up … in a good way.

And why is it our expectations of Chris Tanev and Zack Kassian are so high? Can they really make a difference between a first-round exit and a true Stanley Cup run?

Winners or Losers?

admin — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 19:31:15 +0000

On Thursday’s Province Sports podcast, Paul Chapman and Jonathan McDonald talk about how it certainly seems this is one of those years where the Canucks could lose in the first round or get all the way to the Stanley Cup final.

Plus, why playing an NHL game at B.C. Place isn’t wowing them, and how the league seems to be taking its gimmicks too far.

A Dip in the Golf Pool

admin — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 19:47:48 +0000

Golf pools are for sissies, says Steve Ewen on Friday’s Province Sports Podcast. He has no idea how little knowledge Jonathan McDonald had going into this week’s Masters pool.

So little knowledge, he doesn’t even know the first name of a guy he picked named Moore.

Plus: Do we care if the Winnipeg Jets make the playoffs?

Augusta National

admin — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 19:35:10 +0000

Augusta National is truly an alternate universe. So says columnist Ed Willes, who joins Jonathan McDonald on Thursday’s Province Sports podcast.

The guys talk Masters, reminding those who’ve forgotten that Mike Weir was actually a force going into the 2003 tournament. And they talk about being a university hockey goalie when you wake up, an NHLer around dinner time.

Canucks, Canucks, Canucks

admin — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 21:46:40 +0000

Canucks, Canucks, Canucks. That’s what Paul Chapman and Jonathan McDonald talk about in Tuesday’s podcast.

Nerd alert: Paul can’t remember his anniversary, but can list the Canucks’ and Wild’s final, combined, 19 games.
