One made up a rumor and story about Quinn needing at-home oxygen while battling covid19 and another asked pettersson if he regretted signing in North America after he got a concussion from Matheson.

Vancouver media sucks, much like the rest of the Canadian hockey media

They are a bane to the team. They gang up on that type of bs looking for skeletons.

If I were a reporter I’d rather be original & ask better Q’s that don’t inflame players. Better to give them some slack & let them give honest answers rather than being led into the crap they face so often. What is it about Van media that they all think they are important & ask what they ask?

Petey do you like smooth or crunchy peanut butter?

I don’t eat peanut butter.

How do you like your steak?

Quinn what is your fave colour of M & M’s?

All of them.

Why?

Cuz I’m not partial & it’s politically correct.

This is a great point, and I would suggest that this is the goal of *most* members of the media. But, what would you ask? At this point in the season, what “real” question would you like to get an honest answer from one of them?

That is some top notch journalism. Did you go to the same school as Ek?

How do you feel about this coming season?

Goals for the team & how do you see yourself helping?

Is it a PO or bust season?

Problem is, any time a player says something interesting/honest, people lose their poop... just look at Jack Hughes saying Van wasn't a good team

See, not exactly different from what they get asked already. Softball questions and cliche answers. Appreciate the effort, but asking great questions is harder than it might seem.

Actually, it's mostly you who adds to the problem. The rest of the guys in here seem pretty reasonable and level headed.

Yes we’re fanatics but we also discuss & argue our points of view. We don’t lose our shlt lol

Yes I agree. I didn’t put much thought into it. Tact was more neutral to get the juices flowing.

This looks more like a real game not exhibition.

But Canucks are winning.

Okay that is better

I like the look of Ek on the point. Seems to take a bit off the shot to get it through. Been a long time for a player to wear 23 for the Canucks not to just slam a puck into some shinpads...

I dunno, not a lot of flow early by either team.

They should have an agreement that games 1,3,5 are AHL type games and 2,4,6&7 are NHL games. It must be so hard for coaches to evaluate performances where teams are so mismatched.

Wow, everyone piling on Soaps. Who knew there was so much hate for the 🥝
