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.
Elliotte Friedman was on TEAM 1040 and said there's basically an unspoken rule that no matter how pissed you are at a player, you ALWAYS shake their hand and keep your mouth shut. What Lucic did is a complete lack of disrespect
disrespect, or lack of respect?

Local boy or not, Lucic seems like your typical meathead...
I like his game, but he doesn't know when to shut it down and carries it way too far into the classless territory.
Kind of makes you wonder why people disrespect his home and deface it. I don't know Lucic but I've heard stories from those who do. IMO, he makes his bed, he should sleep in it too.
Why even bother to line up and handshake if you're just going to be a douche about it
If anyone is still looking for Luongo merchandise, its 50% off at the Canucks store according to Eddie Lack's Twitter account. Not sure if this includes jerseys though. I would embed the tweet but not the easiest to do on the mobile.
“@TEAM1040: .@garymasonglobe reports on #TEAM1040 that John Tortorella wanted the Canucks to buy out Alex Burrows.”
That's weird - Burrows probably had the worst luck of anybody on the team this season, and Tortorella wanted the team to buy him out? What about Booth?

And other points such as he didn't talk to the farm team coach AT ALL. That he didn't go thru video a lot and such
Lol where are the Torts supporters now.
Absolutely unacceptable, not talking to the farm team coach insinuates that he had no plan giving chances to young talent, and we wonder why teams like Detroit, Chicago, and Boston have young talent that end up making the roster
Good riddance.
Became much more obvious as the season went on that he was not only the wrong coach but a terrible coach.
So he goes to management and ownership to convince them to buy out Burr. Burr probably found out and that probably contributed to him playing like crap. The players said they were unhappy about the amount of practice they were getting (not enough) and they didn't think he took practice seriously. Also, he never looked at video at the opposing team.
Not communicating w/ farm. As Naba stated, he raged at Booth for being late 5 mins when he wasn't, and the players vouched for him.
The players sucked but this guy never put us in a position to grow, develop, or win. All talk about development all season beginning at the hiring conference and he does jack all, other than shafting Jensen on the 4th line and destroying his confidence. Apparently he tried to get rid of Weise as early as the beginning of the season too.
Torts got pissed at booth for showing up to practive 5mins early then ripped him infront of the team....
Torts is like jekel and hide....or bipolar haha

If that's true, wow... if Tort wanted burrow out then i am glad he is gone.
Just for slaying the dragon during 2011's first round is enough to cut burr some slack for a couple of shitty seasons in my book, He's one of the if not THE hardest work horse on our team.
