I don’t know it’s that management sees so much in him, rather that there’s no better option for the same price

Hes a lazy power forward thatll pot u 15-20 goals a season and at his price point, i can live with it.

I think most fans agree that Toffoli was the smarter play than Jake if they could have made it work from a cap perspective. Although it was a small sample size, Toffoli was a beast on either of the top lines. I feel that Jake has shown everything he is capable of. This is his 6th professional season, and 5th with the Canucks. I would love to be proven wrong, but he doesn't have the skillset to take it to the next level.

But if Jake ever started taking it serious, he could be a 30-30 player, which would’ve been super valuable.

Chicago Bears wore something similar too, but with white pants which didn't complete the look (and BC Lions as well, but the numbers were just orange outlines), but these look even better on the ice. | |

I love the all black uniforms of the Lions.
Gawd, I miss the Lions and the CFL.

So they let Dave Randorf go because he was basically the last choice for sportsnet and had gotten pushed out
Now we get the guy who calls the fucking Punjabi side of the games as the English commentator? Ffs...
I think shorthouse must have really pissed someone off because he’s barely gotten a sniff in the TV broadcast in the last few years and he would be one of the better SN play by play guys imo.

This guy is fine with the regular stuff, nice and clear, but his "excited" voice is pretty flat.

This guy is fine, probably took the game on short notice. I was never a big fan of Dave Randorf's midgety voice
Is Shorty still doing games on CKNW?

Lol CKNW hasn’t had the rights for like 10+ years I’d say
I still remember listening to them on a little hand held radio in my car before school when shorty and larshied won the 50/50

I didn't mind Randorf for the CFL or on the old Sportspage program, but he just wasn't good at calling hockey.

Honestly towards the end when he was force fed us on the Canucks game it felt like he was only there because he had been around for so long.
