There's such a thing as too many heels even in a market that likes it's sports media heels like Vancouver. We need more baby faces in the market right now to balance things out. Even if the job isn't as much fun for them. Suck it up.

It's kind of like that scene from Reservoir Dogs these days. Everyone wants to be Mr Black. Well, somebody has to be Mr Pink or we don't have a game.Richardstroker69 wrote: ↑Sat May 23, 2020 2:43 pmAgreed could definitely use another babyface, drance is kinda on an island all alone.Megaterio Llamas wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 6:09 pm Everybody wants to be the bad guy now.

Young journo students should look to Iain McIntyre for inspiration. He's had a great run without ever turning heel.

Benning promoted Brackett to the top job a year after inheriting him from Mike Gillis’ scouting staff.

I've been pissed a couple times this year with Imac

Like how Gallagher was pro management when his buddy Gillis was at the helm, Vincenzo Skully?

Re: Vancouver's Hockey "Media"
He absolutely was. The media guys are a pile of flip flippers for the most part. But I Mac is like a loyal puppy to this administration. He isn’t capable of stirring the pot. Though he did loathe Gillis and was devastated when the Cheeseburgular got canned.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Sun May 24, 2020 7:58 am Like how Gallagher was pro management when his buddy Gillis was at the helm, Vincenzo Skully?

Re: Vancouver's Hockey "Media"
The 1040 crowd still love Gillis, especially Sekeres and Price. They can’t stand Benning, just like the Athletic whipper snappers like Dayal and Burke. To be honest, IMac is a relief compared to the barf that is being puked out about Benning from Day 1Doyle Hargraves wrote: ↑Sun May 24, 2020 8:04 amHe absolutely was.

Re: Vancouver's Hockey "Media"
I don’t like the constant bashing from 1040. But they all flip flop. That’s what I’m saying. I Mac acted like a fool when Dave Nonis got canned. Gallagher hated Quinn and Burke but loved Gillis. It’s hard to take any of them serious. Gary Mason was the last good read in this town. Farhan is pretty good on the radio and Murph is aces on TV. Other than that they pretty much all suck. Rintoul isn’t bad but his voice is ultra creepy.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Sun May 24, 2020 8:08 amThe 1040 crowd still love Gillis, especially Sekeres and Price.

Re: Vancouver's Hockey "Media"
To be more honest, Benning deserved a lot of the lumps he took in this market during his first three years on the job. He doesn’t however, deserve all the shit he’s taking now from the media and the inbreds at hfboards.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Sun May 24, 2020 8:08 am

Re: Vancouver's Hockey "Media"
Vancouver is a huge market with zero credible media talent save possibly farhan lalji but he leans away from venturing an opinion imo.
Cowgrease has jason gregor and coilerville has bob stauffer...both are top shelf reporters who have a balanced perspective.
If you guys want to listen in sometime stauffer is on 650 ched and and gregor is 960 the fan. 960 does a daily around the league segment around 1 mountain time mon-fri which is good. Usually intetview shorty or lalji for the canucks
