watch hockey and take notes so he knows what to talk about during the game. he does radio interviews during the week as well on different stations.

sigh, he was doing that when he was here and CBC games on HNIC.

Since the schedule was just announced yesterday, ticketmaster still did not print and send my tickets out yet. I hope I get it in time via regular mail before Game 1.

:werd:

I'm selling my pair of tickets at face value for Wednesday's game if anyone is interested. :)

I miss Jim Hughson as well.

^^ good deal

Jim hughsen commentating a canucks game? :fuckyea:

i find shorty having too much of a monotone voice when they score and when something big happens.

hughson and shorty are the best announcers imo. it's been mentioned before, but we're pretty spoiled by having these two guys announce for us. anytime i'm stuck with american streams or anything outside of vancouver really, i can't stand those other announcers at all.

Jim Hughson is the best in the business. There's a reason why CBC stole him away from the Vancouver market and put him in for the Toronto games.

Any places that sell t-shirts preferably with stick/rink logo. The team stores have zero sizes and selections right now.

Whats up with the scarves? I thought it was a soccer thing lol. Are people going to be wearing scarves in June?!

Call it blasphemy, but i actually like hughy better than i liked jim robson! and that's saying something!

shorty, meh, he's okay. he's proficient as his job but not even close to the other 2 for me.

you know, marc lee isn't ALL that bad -- it's just that kevin weekes brings his down. alot.

Mark Lee is always a couple of seconds behind the play. It would be fine if he were like Bob Cole because at least Cole knows when to pick up the tempo and raise his voice. Lee is behind the play and he yells in order to make up for it.

To me, Jim Robson will always be the best play-by-play guy for the Canucks.

Robsons stock is falling every time I see those stupid back in the day segments between periods :/

Does anyone know where I can find a list of all playoff players for a pool?

3rd line Hansen- Hodgson - Raymond
4th line Glass-Lapierre-Oreskovich

per twitter

If you grew up listening to the Canucks on the radio (before every game was televised), you would understand why there are some of us who still admire the guy. When you listened to Robson, you knew exactly what was going on the ice. Plus, he didn't have to rely on catchy phrases to bring excitement to the game.

@DOUBLEJGLOBALBC: CBC bringing the A team to town...Jim Hughson will be calling the Hawks Canucks series!!!

:fuckyea: :fuckyea: :fuckyea: :fuckyea: :fuckyea:

Too many TV guys seem to think that because you can see the pictures, they don't need to go into as much detail. Sometimes guys who move from radio to TV are even worse.

Hughie's never lost that "radio" touch, where you could close your eyes and still get a good visual of what's happening on the ice.

Listening to him on with Pratt & Taylor earlier, and he is STOKED to be calling the Canucks games for their entire run. They asked him for his prediction for the Cup... he said it was a no-win for him, because if he says the Canucks, he's labeled a homer, and if he says anyone else, people ask if he's crazy for not picking Nux. :D

John Shorthouse isn't too bad, one of my comments from this game LOL
