  1. I wish Dave could mentor, make the big changes. Show the way somehow. He still has it. Talk radio is not about being safe. You have to be borderline nuts. See Exhibit A, Dave Pratt. He's legend. Three great legends in this clip. CKNW is all about safe, boring hosts outside of Mike. Vanilla doesn't work with talk radio. Pratt is wrong and most times is oblivious to how wrong he is, but that's the beauty of it. Pratt needs a new show with the former mayor. They can talk bike lanes, sports and politics. This segment? Brought to you by Depends.

  2. One thing to think about folks, all the love in the comments? Would Dave have many YouTube accounts in order to add some love down here? You never know!

  3. 9:30 – Dave Pratt: You want to be entertained, you want to be emotionally invested and you have to know how to stir the pot!
    Don Taylor my bud, Bringing Dave on the show was a GORGEOUSE MOVE!!

  4. So Dave, new management comes into town and can fix years of mistakes. Get a life, nothing gets fixed that fast and with the flat cap their hands are tied. To me Benning should've done a complete rebuild but he didn't so in 5 or more years this team maybe be ready for the playoffs.

  5. Fantastic to see big Daddy – and he looks trimmer and healthier than ever. Interesting that twerps in suits in someplace called Toronto promote vanilla broadcasters instead of real talent that keeps people glued to radios. I hope D and D have Pratt on much more frequently – he still has lots to say!

  6. When your 750k a year guys are playing better and producing more the the 8million dollar guys (Miller,Boeser) you have a problem……Miller and co make as much in a month than the producing players make in a year…….you never gonna win a cup when you are aiming for a scoring title or the Presidents cup

  7. I agree šŸ’Æ on What Dave Pratt has mentioned about Canucks management….I am still angry with Canucks management for not prioritizing your Team captain….I don't understand why the f*ck why they decided to sign Miller 8 years over HORVAT….Still blows my mind… What a complete jokešŸ¤”šŸ™ƒšŸ¤”šŸ˜’

  8. Dave Pratt, holy cow! Great to hear from the guy again. Reminds me of the "good old days" of Vancouver sports media before Bell Media killed off sports talk radio in the city. Everything he said about the state of the Canucks and sports media is so true. You guys are the definition of what it should be all about. A talent lost nowadays.

  9. Dave is a clown. Never liked the man it was always about him. Glad he isn't in the sports scene anymore. He looks sick he's lost 50 lbs

  10. Donnie is a good dude burying the hachett with Pratt to let him on his show while hes down and out.

  11. Miss the old days of Vancouver's sports scene with Sports Page, Dan Russell's Sports Talk, et al.

  12. lol three men in their 80's pretending theyre still relevant like the world hasnt passed them by long ago….
