  1. I love to see the morons in the vancouver media finally get called out. Take your medicine and keep your negativity in your bowels where they belong. You guys will shit on the players in a heart beat and there just isn’t any room for it anymore.

  2. Jeff Paterson is the issue. He asked the question framed as if there was a controversy over it. Tocc isn't reading every article out there. He was just going off how the question was framed. Then Jpat goes on twitter talking about "oh i dont know where he got that idea from hurr durr durr" like the slack jawed snake that he is.

  3. Completely disagree with Drance. I think it was inflamed and Toc will stop being honest with the press if they can’t keep themselves in check.

  4. Remember when this team would lose 6-0, and we'd all just call it an off night and try to forget about it? I think it's the same thing for this team when they lose 4-3 in OT. It was an off night, just forget about it and move on.

  5. Vancouver media can be brutal. Just constant non stop micro managing of issues just to make themselves relevant. No wonder Petey might be thinking of another place to play with the constant pressure.

  6. Drance is wrong, the media says "blasts Pettersson" and says that's not wrong???? Give me a break from all this BS about nothing!!!!

  7. I am liking this new chilled out version of Drance, nothing but rational comments, great video!

  8. Tocchett saying that Schenn didn't deserve a penalty was the issue I had. Same thing with Luke Richardson in Chicago on yhe Bedard hit. A coach needs to stand up for his players when a bad hit occurs

  9. A player out of nowhere that nobody is talking about will be added at or before the deadline. "Say Nothing" Allvin is a sneaky SOB.

  10. I like Drance but come on, he's dodging the question like a politician here! The question wasn't about Tochs openness. Let me answer for you Drance, Yes, the media is making a story here, and it's not in the best interest of our club! Period! Reminds me of when they ran Lou outta town, then want to praise his playing days because he got good at social media. Come on Drance, answer the question!!
