  1. Always returned to this one. I wish Botch could be here writing with this resurgence.

    I don’t know why Botch’s death always hits me so hard, but it did and always does.

    Botch was one of us. I hope he’s looking down smiling right now, first in the fucking league you guys. Do your dekes Petey!

    It was such a gut punch when he passed away. He was the best at what he did and I hope that soon we can toast to his remembrance with a victory that we all deserve.

    Sara Civian also referenced this quote in her article ranking all the NHL teams based on vibes (spoiler alert: we were #1)

    It’s such a bummer he’s not around to see this.

    I mean there’s still so so soooo much work to do. But even just leaving the arena tonight I was saying to my buddy, like…even just the vibes in town are so much better. People are dancing in the arena. People are happy drunk on a Saturday night. Hardcore fans are like kids again when we score. Games matter. Line combos matter.

    It’s a great feeling. Still so much to do and nothing has been done yet but it’s a fun wave to ride.

    I miss Botch, he was my favourite beat writer.

    Damn, man :(. Botch was a fan he’d be cheering alongside us in this.

  9. Haters still hate. And I’m keeping my cool. Been a fan for 30+ years. Could this season be the one? Maybe. It’s just nice to be competitive again.

    Botch just watching us fans from above and grinning. There will be drinks poured for this man when the cup is raised.

    Pour one out for our boy Botch and all the fans that aren’t here to see the Canucks go the other way

    I always feel out of the loop on this excerpt. Who was Botch quoting here, and what was the context?

  12. unbannedcoug

    What I loved the most about him was the ability for him to write or retell a moment and providing a gif to back it up.

    Sometimes she goes, and sometimes she doesn’t.
