I remember working for the team years ago and having one of those meet the GM/Season Ticket holder nights when it was at the plaza of nations and Brian Burke getting up and telling everyone they had their #1 centre of the future and his name was Josh Holden! So what happened to this Josh Holden? I'm intrigued Not much info online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Shotgun Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Probably working at a Chevron station. Typical Burke all talk no go but he did have to promote interest in the club part of the job. Highly over rated GM, aside from dealing for the twins not much here, no contract renewal (but I'm not fired), slips down the coast to the Ducks pretty much a set team Pronger falls into his lap team wins a cup, bolts to the center of the hockey universe as the all hail mighty Caesar...we know the story...nadda, surfaces in Calgary...well we're waiting jury is still out. When Calgary punts him he'll turn up in the NHL offices as a Bettman flunky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's his hockeydb profile: http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=19307 He actually has had a very good career all things considered. He put up some good numbers in the AHL, (ppg player) but failed to crack the NHL. So he went to Europe and has had a very successful career there for the last 12 years. He's 39 years old now and just got signed to another 1 year extension with Zug EV. Could definitely have been a top guy in the NHL if he'd had the right conditions. I think we can all probably agree to blame Mark Messier for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepress83 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Serves me right for renewing right away, I held out last year for months but still didn't get any of these offers and I was in the lower bowl (not the cheap seats). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCNeil Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Relocation 20th to 22nd. I thought this year they would go to online only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepress83 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 You beat me to it, I just RSVP'd it will be interesting to see what the options are like this year for seat selection. I'm hoping for selection similar to last year so I can get even better seats. With all of the new price categories I bet more people than usual will be moving this year.

Grapefruits Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I have a question. What does the season ticket package they send you come with? Just curious as I am a season ticket holder for the BC Lions. Over the years it gets less and less. Few years back I received a collectable box. Couple years back a cylinder with a cool poster. Last year a "folder" with a card, lanyard, and a few stickers. This year, a "folder" with a card and lanyard. Just curious if the Canucks have gone the same route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have my Lions "The Pride Of All BC" collectable box right here at my desk....use it to store pens...and my cylinder is full of pennies. Other than this year the Canucks don't send much...I have a couple books and pictures they sent over the last several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
