    Amazing Job!
    Great podcast covering the rise and fall of the West Coast Express. Goes in depth on the vibe/mood of the Canucks franchise before any of the three even get to Vancouver. Very easy listen with high quality production and clipped interviews weaved between the narration by Scott. Highly recommend for any hockey fan.
