After one of the least exciting preseason games ever, the LoB lads return to the basement for some hockey (and everything) talk. We discuss things we liked and didn't from the Canucks/Sharks preseason opener, as well as Hansen's heel turn, the origin of a new goalie controversy, the arms race of random kindness, Chris Tanev's greasy flow, NFL football, slam dunking your vote, Rogers Arena 20 in 20 celebrations and "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol 2". All that plus your questions from Twitter.

The lads are back in a slightly echo filled room to discuss a few more exits from Canuckdom. This is pre-Bonino-Sutter, so that won't be discussed (and Bonino might make one of our heist teams). Aside from that, jBow and the Stanch break down the film "Grease" and answer your Q's from Twitter.

What in the name of F*** happened?! Eddie Lack has been traded from the Vancouver Canucks. Put on your goatees, we're in the darkest timeline. Also, Bieksa's gone too. It took a shockwave like this to get us back from our siesta, but the LoB is back in the basement for some hockey talk that meanders into other things such as "Jurassic World", Ben Affleck/Jennifer Garner's divorce, recent sports injuries, Canucks who didn't care they were Canucks, the return of the smash hit 90s sitcome "Coach", ...

It's been a while, but we didn't want to let Christmas come and go without doing another episode. We've been hustling and bustling, but last night we got together via Skype to chat Canucks, NFL, Green Lantern, Christmas Shopping, Christmas snacks and theme music (among other things). Thanks for listening, gang. Happy Holidays

BoHo has made his debut, and we got things to say about it. Not only did we get into "The Tonesetter" and the single greatest opening faceoff win in history, but we also discussed his parents and silly rookie hazing. We also discuss the upcoming "California Roady", NFL updates, a brief stop into the MLB to talk World Series and we discuss A-Rod's confession. All that, plus your questions from Twitter and a special B4-4 story from Bow's new job.

Alternate episode title: "Tales from the SECOND most important ball hockey game ever". After an off week, the boys are back in the basement to talk Canucks, a little bit about the Seahawks and a lot about the big #LoBup3 ball hockey showdown last weekend. Plus, we check in with Justen Gordon via skype to give us a hookup update and we take your questions from Twitter. (If you like quizzes, it's at the end of the ep)

The Canucks are 2-0, and we're all about celebrating (it's not going to be like this for long). This week, we discuss Radim Vrbata, Bo Horvat, exciting Canucks games, Back to the Future II, Reality TV, and a Shawshank Redemption quiz. All that plus your questions from Twitter and we give away #LoBswag from Rosterbot.

After a slight delay and a relaxing offseason, the blog boys are back! And irreverant conversation came with them. There aren't a lot of "new" developments, so the majority of the show is taking your questions from Twitter. You brought the goods, so we gave away a copy of "FIFA '15" for the XBone. We also discuss Gotham, The Cyclist and a "Back to the Future 2" quiz. Thanks for coming back everyone, it's gonna be a good year.

The Botch is back! Our most popular guest ever returns for his third appearance on the #LoBcast, and there is some tension in the basement. Kudos related tension (the worst kind). We continue to chase sponsors, as well as discussing Ryan Kesler, the Canucks draft, the coaching vacancy and more. Plus your questions from Twitter.

It's the offseason, and after swearing a vow of silence as long as the Boston Bruins were in the playoffs (that's what we're going with), the boys are back in the basement. So join us as we discuss the NHL playoffs, John Tortorella's coaching methods, Jim Benning's hydration, Ryan Kesler's trade value, X-Men movies, Wyatt's trip to EA sports and overly personal roller hockey chirps. All that, plus your questions from Twitter and some delicious mini bhakarwadi and Pure Leaf unsweetened tea.

Hot on the heels of episode 50, the boys are back in the basement to discuss recent Canucks struggles, the derailment of the Jensen train and more importantly, the epic ball hockey showdown from this past Saturday night featuring many, MANY show contributers from Twitter. We did our best not to make an entire show of that, so we also discuss Las Vegas, Wrestlemania and MLB opening day (briefly). All that, plus your questions from Twitter.

After some brutal scheduling delays and Canucks struggles since the trade deadline, the band is back for our 50th episode. Join Wyatt, j.Bow and producer John as they discuss Nicklas Jensen, the Canucks playoffs likelihood, heartwarming moments on Ellen and Tank Jobs. All that, plus a supersized "Questions from Twitter" because we wouldn't have gotten to 50 without support. (Note: Parts of the episode were filmed for a forthcoming video)

It's NHL Trade Deadline day, and the Canucks are in desperate need of something, anything to right this quick sinking ship. Roberto Luongo cannot help us, as he was delt "home" to the Florida Panthers yesterday. But during the deadline at least the Canucks did... umm... deal Diaz? We discuss that, and have our anticipated "Jurassic Park III" quiz and answer you questions from Twitter.

CANADA RULES! Once again, Canada gave the rest of the world "The D" and won Gold Medals in Men's and Women's hockey. Wyatt & Bow discuss that, other favourite Olympic memories, Canucks playoff chances, Ryan Kesler trade rumours AND Wyatt ambushes Bow with another Jurassic Park quiz, this time on "The Lost Word". All that, plus your questions answered from Twitter.

No losses for the Canucks this week (due to the Olympics) so we dive right in to how Team Canada is performing, and who we think is the "Maple Leaf MVP" at this stage in the tourney. Also, we talk Canucks trades, struggles and whether or not Eddie Lack can return to the show. Plus, Wyatt ambushes Bow with a "Jurassic Park" quiz and the boys answer your questions from twitter.

After an unfortunate incident wiped out our original 40th episode, We decided to put together this special collection of our favourite non-Guest Host, non Twitter question moments of the show. It took a while to put together, and in order to keep things brief we decided to pull them from the first 25 episodes. The first umbrage, Hep JB, the Cyclist, Pullman vs. Paxton, Mighty Ducks 2, Sexy dwarves, Eddie Lack sings, Jason Botchford's Amanda Bynes strategy, it's all here. Plus, the "Worst of" sho...

The Stanchion had a previous engagement of the hockey variety, so we reached out to outspoken twitter personality Dave Wells of @BrownToBure notoriety to guest host the show this week. He did not disappoint. Trying to tailor the show to our guest, we crack a few "sodas" and discuss the Canucks, Halloween Candy, Dollar stores, pumpkin carving accidents and which Vancouver newspaper is ridiculously oversized and hard to read. All that, plus some interesting questions from twitter. We had fun.

He's back, and he's Botchier than ever. The man who everyone wants to talk to in the wake of "Cock-gate", Jason Botchford joins the Legion of Blog in the basement this week. Botch is our second returning guest and previously has the record for highest rated episode of the show. Listen as we discuss GTA V, Tom Sestito, What is wrong with Dan Hamhuis and of course, we go long talking about Joe Thornton. All that, plus a super-sized "Question from Twitter" segment.

Dog days of summer? Phooey and pshaw! The Legion of Blogcast just snagged another awesome guest host and it's Sportsnet's own Dan Murphy. In case you aren't sure who he is, he is the guy on your Canucks broadcasts who wears suits more expensive than your car. He joins us in the basement (not really, recorded via skype) for conversations about buyouts, John Tortorella and just what he's been up to during the offseason. Also, we play "Pronger or Disney Villain" and answer your questions from twitt...

The Vancouver Canucks are eliminated for another year, and the Legion of Blog returns to the basement for some good ol' fashioned lamenting. Joining us for the first time is someone from the Canucks organizations (for reals) as goalie prospect (and avid FIFA gamer) Eddie Lack joined us for what is no doubt our best show ever. Listen as we discuss Greek food, the Canucks, proper video game etiquette and play a round of "Sweden or Finland"? and answer your questions from twitter. Plus, a Lackapell...
