Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

I'm with you Nuckster. Botch is a bit whiny but I find I agree with him on most Canuck issues.

You’re not alone. Botch can get a little full of himself, but I like his writing style and appreciate that just because he will hack on the regime for what he feels are mistakes and praise them when they don’t doesn’t make him a flip-flopper per se. I’ll take him over company man MacIntyre.

Totally agree with the above. I think the thing I hate about Botchford is the TMZ act and fake shouting and screaming.

Nothing wrong with taking management to task. God knows they deserve it.

It's why I just stick to reading, vice listening to him. His on-microphone/camera act can drive me up the wall.

Crotchford is a maple leaves fan, his takes are bordering on handicapped, how anybody can take his opinion seriously is beyond me. I’m gonna love it when guddy turns into a top 4 guy in Pittsburgh and that idiot is wrong about him.

Guddy won’t be a top 4 guy in Pitt.


Letang and Schultz are ahead of him as RH shots. Letang has been hurt which is why Gudbranson is playing more. When they get healthy he will battle JJ for icetime

He’s had a nice little run like he did here a handful of times and then crashed back to Earth. He is a bottom pairing guy good for 14-15 minutes. Wow, a good team is carrying a shitty player, imagine that

Yeah he gets pretty animated around certain canuck deficiencies like Erikson, and trading away picks, and odd mgt decisions; and i guess the yelling thing is just part of his schtick.There's been a couple times when he and Patterson (i think that's his name) have alluded to the pre-on-air " puffs" Botch will have - I find that kind of funny. I dont think i could ever do that, pretty sure i would sound more like a version of Cheech an Chong and or i would forget my thought half way through a sentence.

I'm surprised to hear you say that Blob.

Agreed, Doc. That one came out of nowhere. Blob?

LISTEN @JDylanBurke: #Canucks overall lack of prospect depth is result of five years of trading away picks

Just reporting, not agreeing.....Many holes in his analysis. A real blowhard.

I was the opposite with Gallagher, hated reading him but found his pre-game rambling highly amusing.

Botch provides good info every now and then but has become a bit more lazy. He does sound like an idiot when you listen to him more often than not though. Overall, I think I'd rather read his twitter feed.

Big Fat David Pratt is as big a tool and troll as our own resident village idiot, Blob McKenzie. Pratt must have mental health issues. I can now tune into 1040 morning show again. Sweet!

Has anybody heard this "Uncle" guy that calls into Satiar's show on SN650?

God that guy cracks me up, I can't tell if he's legit or if its all an elaborate prank

Fake accent, I'm Indian and can hear right through it.

Are you offended by it? I have some East Indian friends and even they think the Dude is funny. Uncle Laleet.

It’s probably Rummy.

He’s a far better calmer than that rage case Mike, or Mapke Leaf Dave or Hardy from the Whack. Or Johnny from the Pizzaria
