Another one bites the dust

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

In an era where Canucks games were rarely broadcast on TV, Jim Robson's play by play made you feel like you were watching live while listening on the radio.

Legendary.

They should name a street after him or something...

That sucks. Grew up listening to his voice on the am radio call. He put you in the rink that's for sure

Name a street? Hell, they should name the tallest mountain in BC after him.

Wife Beatrice of 68 years died last September. No word on how he passed, but a broken heart had to be factor.
