Everyone involved in that should be fired and banned from holding a hockey job for the rest of their lives. What an absolutely criminal thing to do

GMJR managed to have a two to three year run here where things weren't absolutely farcical like the rest of his career, but boy shits really gone off the rails with this one.

Reddit just got me caught up on this. GMJR seems like a child who can’t control his emotions. Really gross stuff.

Another septuagenarian in charge of things and doing it poorly. Hmmm.

Has there ever been another instance where a press conference was scheduled to announce the firing of the current coach and a replacement named while the current coach was still behind the bench? Seems unnecessarily cruel.

Yup ^

To be fair, ownership is a big part of this too...not just JR...but he's also very culpable, of course...

Tim Horton’s right? Still, considering GMJR threw a tantrum and quit the penguins because he wasn’t allowed to make a video game trade makes me think that a lot of this was his idea.

Are you asking if Tim Horton's owns the Canucks...? If so, no. It's the Aquillini family, I think they own much of Vancouver...

There was something about Tim Horton’s advertising/marketing controlling a lot of things. I could have misread.

Also lol at JR for blaming media speculation for this whole thing as opposed to, you know, him constantly running his mouth to the media when things aren't going his way.

It's never his fault, always someone else's.

Case in point:



Hopefully Pittsburgh media is next in going scorched earth on him, and leaking why he really left/rage quit.
