Ive always hated how media will click bait topics way out of proportion. Love Tocc addressing this. I doubt anything changes but its nice to see him « blasting » media about it.

Sign first. Blast second.

Yep. It makes the media look like frauds. More importantly he holds his players accountable. If someone is gonna write bullshit, then they should be accountable.

> In a market like this one that’s taken it as the coach blasting one of his star players
So, it’s the market, not the media. Fuckin’ JPat, lmao 💀
Good on Tocc for throwing the ball back at him and said it’s « you guys. »

If Petey’s signed, this is a nothing story. Its the fact that he’s saying this that has people freaked out that Petey might not want to re-sign. The fanbase is on eggshells when it comes to Petey.

Please don’t piss off Rick. I would be lost without his honesty and if the media destroys that they can bugger off and move to Toronto.

My only defense to the media writers is that the headline is often chosen by the editor or the content curators. Traditional newspapers were famous for this. The writer wouldn’t get a say into the headline whats so ever.

He is by far my favourite coach this team has had!!!

This guy is such an absolute breath of fresh air compared to every coach. Even Torts cause that idiot just belittles people and never really talks hockey. I was almost as pissed as when we hired Keenan when we hired Dorkarella.

Paterson always uses “the market” as an excuse to ask stupid questions or engage in speculation. Using the fans as cover for click bait type angles, classic move.

Vancouver media is trash. Go google “Tocchet Pettersson” and just look at the headlines.
What a joke.

Seriously, we’re number one in the league. Can we just appreciate this? Then go back to self-hating and negativity when we lose to Boston in game 7. For f**k sake. Go Canucks!

Tocc is the perfect guy for this. His experience as a broadcaster really gives him an edge when dealing with the media I think.
