I was hoping someone would ask that question but it didn't happen. I also wanted to know how he works with, monitors and connects with the coaches and prospects on the farm team but no media folk asked that.

Locke Lamora Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 BB is going to have the Vancouver media eating out of his hand with his jovial, everyman nature. Until they turn on him. Which they will. The Patterson’s and Sekeres’s of the world have a selection of very sharp knives in reserve. Listening to BB, not anticipating much in the way of advanced systems going forward.

He is the perfect fit for all of the above: Players who need a guy that has their back but holds them accountable. A media that needs someone less easily vilified. A fan base who needs hope restored. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48MPHSlapShot Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 You can ask me again in a few weeks or months and I might give you a completely different answer, but right now holy $&!# does BB feel like a breath of fresh air! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSVII Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) Underrated part of the interview was at the end when Bruce tried to get up from his chair and stumbled, let out an f-bomb Hahaha. Edited December 7, 2021 by DSVII 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal:thecup Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 6 minutes ago, JM_ said: man I sure hope so. It was interesting to hear Stan say basically what Bieksa has said for weeks about the team having no identity. If Bruce can solve that I'll be very happy. I haven't listened to it; I'm still back on page 22 or so. 'N' I gotta go curry some veggies. I love Steamer (even back to the NW Bruins days, but he's not much of a talker that I've seen anyway...Now Darcy Rota, "The Mayor"...) That's not really a slag on 'Darce'. I knew him personally, but he made everybody feel like they did. And he was great for us as a player. He Slayed the Dragon of his day for the Canucks: The (spit, spit) Montreal Canadiens. Here's the sports report: MONTREAL -- Darcy Rota scored three goals Thursday night to spark the Vancouver Canucks to a 4-2 triumph over Montreal, snapping the Canadiens' unbeaten streak at 10 games. The loss also halted Montreal's 14-game unbeaten home streak and the victory gave the Canucks their first triumph in nine games. ADVERTISEMENT Rota, who was only playing his second game in two nights since missing seven weeks with an ankle injury, scored on a breakaway just 36 seconds into the game. Montreal, which has 101 points and needed just one more victory to clinch first place in the NHL's Adams Division, tied the score 1-1 at 12:16 on a goal by Larry Robinson. Rota came back with his second goal 41 seconds later, taking a pass from behind the Montreal net and drilling a slapshot past goalie Denis Herron to give the Canucks a 2-1 lead. Tiger Williams' power-play goal at 7:23 of the middle period provided the Canucks with a two-goal edge. Williams grabbed a rebound off Herron's pad and lifted a high shot into the Montreal net. Rota capped his hat trick with his 16th goal of the year at 9:07 of the final period after linemate Thomas Gradin faked Herron out of the net and passed the puck across. Bob Gainey rounded out Montreal's scoring 18 seconds later with his 21st goal. Back in the Coliseum Days: A buddy who also knew Darcy and I started chanting Rota, Rota, Rota from the corner every time he got the puck. It caught on, and later they put up a banner there that said "Rota Rooters". Another one we started back in the day, was: I-Van, H' Link-ah, Link-ah, Link-ah, Link-ah I-Van, H' Link-ah, Link-ah, Link-ah, Link-ah I-Van, H' Link-ah, Link-ah, Link-ah, Link-ah (to the tune of song, can't remember the real one now, lol) He was a force; props to the poster that uses his name. Kinda like a cross between Chara and Jagr. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We_Are_All_Canucks_4_life Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I watched the press conference and it was refreshing to hear him talk about his plans and having a bunch of small goals to build on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
