Well, like Bruce likes to believe - it’s about winning your week. They need to get two of the next three.

Listening to the 2 John’s bantering really gives me an appreciation for their chemistry. So many other Broadcasts are wooden and similar. I often feel like I’m watching the Game with a couple of my buddies with these two.

At least they don't scream into the mic like some radio announcers in other markets like Edmonton, but while Shorthouse is fine, I wish we could move on from Garrett and bring in someone with more insight into the modern game. I get that he's like a loveable grandpa, but while Hirsch was a bit rough, at least he had interesting things to say about the goaltending. Garrett just kind of repeats what he sees and didn't play in the modern, post-deadpuck era.

John Garrett is the GOAT in terms of food-related commentary though.

On a negative note. Brock Boesers been completely useless once again tonight.
He wasnt noticeable bad just not noticeable which for him shouldn't be .
He actually improved his shot and his defensive game this season, have you even been watching him play for the last few years?

Shot is weak and something he should be spending hours a day on bets are a 1000 kids getting paid 0 a yr do and ive watched every canucks d man since 70s .
Hes talented small and needs to use smarts and work to be more than he is if hes going to lead or be a part of leading a team to more success.
Wtf do i know though i should be napping like a granpa only played 38 yrs coach now .

Put him on the post-game show then lol... I don't dislike Garrett at all, I just wish we had someone else who can say insightful things about the game without just repeating what he sees during replays.

Good win - I was worried this one was going to get away from them when they blew the 2-0 lead, but they knuckled down and got it done. Also nice to break that bizarre losing skid to New Jersey.

Looked iffy there mid 2nd till shorty for sure

I remember now
It was the conditions that PLD dropped and we traded 5th overall for Subban in 2017 or whatever draft that was.


LOL my god,

Subban is brutal, he was so bad tonight
I only heard about that recently. It is STAGGERING that we could have somehow left that draft day with a worse result than we actually did.
