Watching Brady Kachuk's first game back in Ottawa right now. Fuck are those fans pissed lol. Pretty entertaining

When did Ottawa get fans that cared??

They're a mostly cheapass bunch who are a little milquetoast, but nothing like a good betrayal narrative with a sprinkle of geopolitics to boot in the nation's capital to get their blood pumping.

Watching that made me think about how the Canucks and its fans should welcome Quit Hughes back, I suggest the following:


Do a tribute video for him but follow this script:

Start the video with the traditional “thank you Quinn Hughes” graphic and then show highlights of Rossi, Oghrem, Buium in Canucks jerseys and Novotny in his Pete’s jersey.

Reading some of the post-game stuff about what they were chanting at the game, gotta tip my hat. That’s some heartfelt fan hate, there.

Hughes is a different animal. He didn’t leave quite so acrimoniously. I think it best that the crowd has no reaction, like he’s just another visiting player.

The Sens actually have a decent group which makes Brady wanting out so much worse.

Quinn could clearly see the Titanic sinking and there wasn't anything he could do about it (on the ice anyway) plus he probably gave the ancient one loads of notice....his barfing out state secrets to the media surely didn't help

I don't really blame Hughes and the Canucks did get a decent return so what the hell, give him his little video and move on
