Biggest tool .... So many to choose from : Crotchford, Price, Patterson, Taylor , Macdonald , Edwards , Abbott, Tomlinson, Gallagher , Pratt . It's easier to name the guys that are tolerable . Lalji, Rintoul, Moj, Sekeres if he gets his adenoids out . McIntyre is ok . Kuzma is meh but not a vicious hack . Most of the media here need a good shitkicking and maybe a public stoning .

So.... If the hockey media is so bad why don't you get in there and do better, guaranteed its its not as easy as it looks.

If they would pay me to do it I would guarantee I'd do a better job than the mongoloids currently holding down the fort. Then again you are the same guy who said Horvat would be lucky to make the last WJ team so I wonder if your ear holes are as plugged up as your eye sockets .

Botchford just won an award for outstanding journalism (or something to that effect) in Vancouver.

Pretty much sums up the talent we have have here covering our local teams.

Do a comparison of the Vancouver media and the eastern hockey media.

Like clockwork, Tony G is back to slagging the Canucks mgmt on a regular basis like he was for many years before his good buddy the Players Agent Gillis became GM. I love how defends all of Gillis fuck ups.

He's always had a huge stick up his ass over anything associated with the Pat Quinn era, so this should come as no surprise. He's also always been in bed with the agents, and willing to pump the tires of any rookie being denied ice time from the coach. In fact, I always believed he took that stance because ultimately it was pro-agent. If you cared to look, I'm sure you can find articles he's written about Marc Crawford not giving Harold Druken enough of a chance. Actually, it wasn't even hard, I just googled "harold druken marc crawford" and found this:
Other players are ruined, and here you might want to pencil in the name of the departed Harold Druken who was lifted every time he made a mistake. By this season, the swashbuckling offensive spirit which was such a joy to watch had virtually disappeared, replaced by a tentative, almost apprehensive approach to the game.
Yeah, guess who wrote that. :drink: :drink: :drink: 40 years in, it's starting to get old.

Tony G has also hated on Linden since he was part of the PA that wanted to get a deal done and ultimately went behind Goodenow's back and got the deal done in 2005.

Don Taylor loves Tony G as much as he loves Ron MacLean

I hate him less than Don Taylor, Jeff Paterson and Flake Price . So I guess that's positive.

Read little of the local media, listen to even less.

Watch recorded games with sound low or off. I watch first, listen second, laugh at homer John and John fuckups third if the sound is on. Fast forward through intermissions crap anal ISIS.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.
