NHL fans react post-match

The Vancouver Canucks’ management has recently been in the news. Fans are mad at the management because they have been changing the coach of the team frequently. The moment Rick Tocchet replaced head coach Bruce Boudreau, fans were enraged with anger. Here are some mixed reactions –

“Canucks beat up on the bottom feeders, get slapped by the legit teams. Recipe for a mid 1st round pick and more mediocrity. Oh well, losing is tiring. Good win over a dogsh*t team.”
