Jannik Hansen just had the best week of his career, scoring five goals in three games, capping it all off with a hat trick against the Canucks’ bitter rivals, the Chicago Blackhawks. That kind of performance can change people’s opinions in a hurry and Hansen has gone from being dispensable to utterly indispensable in the minds of Canucks fans.

But it’s not just Hansen: with Bo Horvat stepping up as NHL-ready, the fourth line of Hansen, Horvat, and the underrated Derek Dorsett has been very impressive of late. It seems unlikely now that Horvat will get sent back to junior and far more likely that he’ll supplant Brad Richardson as the third line centre.

Daniel and Harrison talk all about the fourth line, but find room to talk about Daniel Sedin’s 1000th career game as well, because that’s pretty special, even if it got overshadowed. Also, Dan Hamhuis is out long-term, so they talk through the options available to them.

Before all of that, though, they pay tribute to Pat Quinn, who passed away today at the age of 71, and examine his legacy with the Canucks.
