Episode Details

Max Sasson and Nikita Tolopilo are back in Vancouver after whirlwind offseasons, balancing personal triumphs with serious hockey work. Tolopilo welcomed his daughter into his Belarusian family circle — a deeply emotional milestone — while Sasson proudly represented Canada at the World Championship in Switzerland, with family and even Canucks teammates cheering him on. Both players hit the ice hard: Sasson trained with elite pros in Michigan and Vancouver, sharpening his shot and stickhandling; Tolopilo worked with KHL and NHL stars in Minsk and switched goalie coaches for fresh insight before returning early to train under the Canucks’ new goalie coach. With three seasons under their belts, they’re thrilled to reconnect with Manny Malhotra and the new coaching staff — including RJ and the Sedins — who bring intensity, structure, and championship energy. They feel indebted to the organization and are laser-focused on giving their all this season to support the new leadership, ready to bring their improved game and heart back to the Canucks.
