And now the local media is asking EP if he is considering returning to Sweden due to the injury. God it’s hard to explain how much I hate our media
- CanuckDon


Our media is absolutely atrocious. Whats worse is half of our fans buy into it. EP is literally 1lb heavier than marner and has anyone once thought marner didnt belong in this league? Its just hysteria. EP is going to be the best player on the canucks, and at 176 lbs, he will continue to make bigger guys look silly. Half of tampas forwards are under 200 lbs and no one says a thing. Kucherov is listed at 176, gourde 175, cirelli 180, point 166.

I wonder if kucherov gets asked if he is going to flee to the KHL? I wish some of these media folks would get called out for their stupidity

I know you don’t particularly like Green and you find him arrogant...but that’s exactly what I like about him. He can’t stand our media and occasionally makes them look stupid. That being said, seems like he has been neutered a bit

The one thing that I like about Green is that he is condescending and dismissive with the media.

Stop blaming media. Media just feeding the hungry. Your choice to educate yourself instead of relying on someone’s else’s opinion or interpretation. Sports media is not there to educate us. They are there to entertain us.

I dont listen to the media. Look at the comments in here on guys who used "this is a mans league, and pettersson needs to gain weight and it wouldnt have happened to him". Whos spinning that narrative if posters in here are saying it?

The media didnt pull the weights of the tampa players bloaty. Believe me, i dont follow a thing that anyone says in the media. The media guys i follow are the ones who have keys to rogers and line rushes at practices. Thats it

I think the media creates stories from the HockeyBuzz narratives.

I use the term “you” loosely. Not Codes specifically.

Just so tired of the blame game especially when it comes to media. I don’t think it’s the media’s fault that Canuck fans are emotional train wrecks. They react because no one likes to admit they cheer for a loser. So they look for scapegoats. Media is the perfect scapegoat.

Sure, why not. Considering the amount of content they have to produce they have to find this crap somewhere. TBH, I find the discussion in here more realistic than any other Canuck focused site out there.

Canuck fans are a bit (frank)ed in the head. I don’t really like them much. I find them annoying with all their conspiracy theories and finger pointing.

I hear more media posts from posters here than i do social media itself. And i know you werent referring to me specifically, i get your statements. Its hard to blame the media when we know what they are about, but at the same time, i dont blame people who have a distaste for ours specifically, they are downright brutal compared to small hockey markets.

Bone weighs the most in the body. EP is probably 3-5 inches taller then all those guys.

You’re looking for journalism not opinion. Then Carol is exactly the source you need. And stat sites. And the box scores. The MSM types here peddle opinion.

As Burke said media affects whether players want to even sign there. When a bunch of morons harp constantly asking dumb questions like do you want to go back to Sweden. It's not even about us having to read or listen, it would affect a player unless they are captain material.

Its always been my philosphy with them. The only media guy i followed was rick dhaliwal because of his phone interviews, but hes been a bit of a drama queen lately so i unfollowed. Basically only brendan batchelor, as he has access to canuck practices and can post line rushes faster than the rest of them

the mean nasty Vancouver media.

Then let the (frank)ers go play in Montreal and see it it’s any better. Toronto is infinitely more critical.

To think botchford or Pratt has that kind of power.

Toronto loved their team no matter what they do. players over the years have said they disliked playing in Montreal for that reason.

Are you trying to say media doesn't have power? You must be trolling. It's talked about constantly that players just ignore the media. Why would they do that if they had no influence.

No, because he didn’t mean to single him out. He said “I should have said OK, instead of bad” basically saying it’s the media’s fault for making more of the situation than it is. Goldy “lost a couple puck battles” but he’s “fine”. They guys on the radio are suggesting Goldy as the extra skater doesn’t mean that much, it’s just a practice.
