    Watching the Canucks from outside of Vancouver

    in Canucks Talk

    Posted

    It's a hassle at times to get Canucks games. I recently scrapped my cable as the bill was way to high to pay for terrible content with overwhelming commercials. Getting rid of cable, Center Ice is off the table and I'm stuck with NHL Gamecenter...not bad but can't watch playoffs, you'd think the NHL would actually own their product and I just saw as of yesterday. I get some random blackouts....for Seattle games. I should explain further....I'm a lifelong Canucks fan down here in Washington state (now behind enemy lines) I use to be able to watch Canucks games either from cable or even antenna but that is longer an option. No more HNIC to boot...and NBC doesn't even come close in terms of coverage/depth in my opinion.

    We'll be back on the Island soon. Very happy for Hicketts, another really nice kid. Spoke with him a few weeks ago at the Everett Silvertips Preseason Tournament. My son had many questions for him, Hicketts was very patient.

    I could be wrong but it seems Victoria has much more home games on weekdays then the last couple years.

    [Report] Torts Fired

    I feel one year isn't enough for Torts. I certainly like his honesty and holding players accountable. I do like the idea of Trotz taking the HC spot but I have no substance to support this, just my bias opinion.

    Plenty of rumors out there but I didn't get the GM gig. Apparently Mr.Linden was not all that impressed with my results on the coloring book portion of the testing process but he did smile when I shared my drinking stories. Sorry to report that I am no longer in the running for GM of the Canucks.

    Not sure what goalies are available. I'm guessing a few but might be a high price. This past off season the Seattle Thunderbirds were eager to get a veteran goalie. Only one real serious chat that I'm aware of was with Kelowna for Cooke but the Rockets wanted the moon in return so to speak and Seattle wasn't willing to deal.

    Had the pleasure of attending the Everett Silvertips preseason tournament this weekend. As expected,the first series of games was rusty but by day 3,most teams really upped their game. I was primarily interested in watching Victoria but my wife loves Seattle and I was impressed,granted,it's only 3 games but plenty of positive buzz surrounding Seattle and Barzal. Anyhow...time to drop the puck!

    Now that was a great game,that's the first time I've gone to ShoWare and cheered against Seattle. One thing that I noticed,although not breaking news,the Royals are excellent skaters,they were running circles around Seattle. I was able to take some photos but cellphone quality. Looking forward to their return in January against Everett & Seattle

    Although its unfortunate for Chiliwack,I'm glad to see the WHL back in Victoria. I lived in Port Angeles,Wa in the late 80's-early 90's

    and use to hop on the Coho and attend Cougar games until they moved to Prince George. The family and I will be making a few trips

    up there this season,I'm trying to attend one of the skate with the team events,my six year old son would have a blast.

    Anyhow,I'm rambling again....
