Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
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.
Only thing Couture has on Skinner is the fact that he's +18 but when you're playing on one of the best teams in the league than you're kinda fail if you're not a plus player. Skinner stepped in and ended up being the Canes 2nd leading scorer at an age where he's not even legal to drink down there
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.
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. Posted via RS Mobile
Robsons stock is falling every time I see those stupid back in the day segments between periods :/
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. Posted via RS Mobile

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.
