An analytics dork who can't skate backwards and thinks Brad Hunt is a god. A wannabe of a person who is no longer with us. The questions at press conferences are long winded and bias, with shocking regularity, Petey even called him out recently. I could go on. Is anyone else tired of him? If only you weren't mandated to watch and listen to him. I long for the days when TVs and radios had of switches and the government didn't force you to consume sports pundit programming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drance is annoying, but for some reason, I don't hate him. Guys I hate: The Plagiarist (i.e., David Pratt), The Crypt Keeper (i.e., Tony Gallagher), Andrew Walker, Randeep Something, That tall skinny that stutters with his questions (thank goodness they've taken him off the air) and more than anyone else, Fatt Suckhairyass (i.e., Matt Sekeres). Starting to hate John Garrett. His color commentary is repetitive and boring as hell. Brings zero insight into the games. Sportnet Pacific needs to take him to the back of the barn and put him out of his misery. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't really avoid that at that point unless if it means turning off a show you like otherwise. Exactly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could see the level of the media through the constant questions on the sexual assault case (Jake Virtanen) to someone in Rutherford who literally just stepped foot in Vancouver and then asking to make investigations public to Francesco. Such a disregard for the victim. That irked me yesterday when listening to the press conference. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.B Cooper Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Agreed. He doesn’t know hockey. He knows stats. He takes the fun out of the game. He sucks. Hahaha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has the VanCast Podcast and The Canucks Hour on 650 now, I do not listen to it and gave them both ample chances. I can't stand him. The Shows I like are: Donny and Dhali Halford and Brough Sekeres and Price Perhaps my issues are more with these shows having him on. Right now we are oversaturated with his bias. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Dog Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 He can be informative with the stats but he doesn’t formulate opinions much with the information provided. It rarely leads anywhere. He is hard to read which can be infuriating for some I can imagine. Especially when in the few times he has been opinionated it’s usually been in a negative light which in-turn leads to a negative perception due to lack of substance to go by. Overall I just formulate my own opinions based off anything interesting I hear. Like when he mentioned Dickinsen underlying numbers are great, I did my research and was able to determine that Dickinsen is our best defensive forward 5v5. Team’s Shooting + Save percentage is while he is on the ice is the best on the team for anyone that’s played 20 games or more and he starts more in the defensive zone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanfor42 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 (edited) And our tax dollars directly pay 25% of the salaries for these clowns. People don't even know this but there is a direct federal income tax credit payable to the employers of media in Canada that goes to pay 25% of their salaries. The process is for a media company to apply to CRA to be certified as a Registered Canadian Journalism Organization. Once qualified the company receives cheques from the government that cover 25% of the salaries for their media employees. Post Media, Bell you name it they are all qualified. Literally hundreds of companies in Canada are qualified and receive huge government subsidies to give these guys jobs and keep these guys on the payroll. Look it up.

BabychStache Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I do not like him. We need more Clay Imoo, less Drance. He is the worst parts of humanity rolled together to form a douche canoe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammertime Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Drance is probably the worst member of the media who reports on all things Canucks related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester13 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I wouldn't use the word 'tired', as it implies that I used to like him at one point. I think I'd go with 'done', as it implies I've never been able to stand him, and now I'm just DOOOOONE with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
