The Crazy Canucks Podcast

Getting excited for tonight’s kickoff of the NHL regular season between our Canucks and the Calgary Flames, this commercial popped into mind.

Granted that this commercial was made in celebration of hockey coming back from the lockout, it still applies to a day like today. Game on!

Come along for a ride with all sorts of hi-jinks with not only your TCC crew, but a whole bunch of Canucks fans who are on the new media front lines with coverage of our favorite team in the NHL. Thanks to the Vancouver Canucks organization, members of the Fan Zone had the awesome [...]

As Rebecca put it to me this morning, she hasn’t missed a Vancouver Sun Raise A Reader Day in four years, and today was no exception. Taking my new Nikon D90 out for an inaugural spin into the real world, here’s a few photos of players we were able to run into today. [...]

I made a Twitter post about this today, and the reception to it was an all around agreement that yes, this is funny. Check out 2K’s latest commercial for NHL 2K10, which I would love to play on the Wii some time.

Gotta love those accents.
Edit: I just noticed on the 2ksports.com website [...]

I recall an episode we recorded awhile back when the joke was to call the Canucks the “Vancouver Luongos” from now on, simply because of two facts: Luongo is an amazing goalie, and so much of the team rests, certainly in the fans’ eyes, on him.
Now, in the event that you haven’t been paying attention, [...]

We have a quick turn around since the last episode, and even though there has only been two games, there’s still a lot to talk about in Canuckland.
Record as of this episode: 23-20-8

It’s been a while since we’ve done an episode, but we’re doing our best to fill you in on what’s happened since the last one as well as our thoughts about what’s been going on with the Canucks over that time. From Sundin to LaBarbara, there has been a lot to talk about and [...]

Here we are again to round up our thoughts on the Canucks minus one Rebecca, but the rest of the crew is together for this episode. Without a road map, we wander down the games that have been, talk about the goalie situation, look ahead to the rest of this road trip, and scatter [...]

Staying healthy is important not only for our team but our podcast crew because DaveO is a (un)healthy scratch for this one while John is recouping from being ill, hence the space between this and our last episode.
Record as of this episode: 3-3-0
Northwest Division: 3rd
Western Conference: 7th
We’ve been having fun spotting the crew [...]

At this point, we’re undefeated. Sure, it’s the pre-season, but we’re not complaining about a 6-0 record thus far. New faces are impressing us, a new coaching style seems to be working well, and the new lines are producing better than anyone has really expected. We also got our answer about who [...]
