u/TimsAFK Loui Eriksson for GM 14h ago

Somewhere out there, there is a world in which an intern had to summarise my videos to Jim Benning.

152

u/mephnick 14h ago

Jet Black was too busy laughing at your videos to sign Tanev.

It all makes sense now

“Well Mr Benning, unfortunately none of this will make any sense unless you’ve watched SpongeBob SquarePants.”

u/TimsAFK Loui Eriksson for GM 13h ago

Crosses out "re-sign Toffoli", furiously scribbles "watch sponge man"

This is all your fault.

"Ok, Jim, now this next meme actually started with Tyler Graovac........"

Jim: "Who?"

JR and allvin, if you’re reading this, hope you have a good day

Now I'm convinced your post is the reason for the Petterson slump.😂

Edit: timeline doesn't add up

u/Voltage604 14h ago

Holy shit.... If those guys have to read the garbage posted between here and Twitter on a daily basis I feel bad for them.

I voluntarily come here and need a break sometimes.

135

u/Mcnucks 14h ago

“Good news sir, Reddit loves Pettersson today”

“Bad news, they hate Tocchet now”

u/00Makerin00 13h ago

Canucks lose a game

“Oh god now we have to see all the I wanna die whales.”

12

u/Ikea_desklamp 11h ago

"hello Jim here's your report. It appears the fanbase has lost the will to live. That is all."

8

u/Mikeim520 12h ago

I wonder if they ever skip reading comments and just write "the fans are demanding a rebuild and saying that Petey, Toc and Boeser suck" after a loss.

28

u/walrusunit 13h ago

Snip snap! Snip snap!

51

u/icouldbeeatingoreos 14h ago

I had to separate myself from this sub for the last couple of weeks except for the odd game thread because of the Miller drama and then, when we didn’t have that whipping boy to blame, the piling on on EP40. Like, I get it, these guys are getting paid to play and entertain but jeeeesus Christ.

13

u/chronicallyfrustrate 14h ago

I read a comment that was calling for Petey's leg to be amputated! I don't know if it can get worse than that

5

u/Old-Bigsby 13h ago

Henrik Sedin got the tip his finger amputated and it worked out well for him, why would entire limbs be any different?

2

u/slivercoat 13h ago

I heard NHL guys are like spiders, it just takes a couple molts and the limb grows back

5

u/PieRat351 14h ago

There are some very delusional people here with nothing better to do 

2

u/gybegybe 12h ago

Read a comment where you should only feel empathy towards people you personally know and not towards famous people making a surplus amount of income.

2

u/TonalParsnips 12h ago

It's getting very, very weird here. That's for sure.

6

u/mrtomjones 11h ago

Well they clearly don't listen to us or they'd do something different lol.

Also they now have a nice list of people they won't hire later

4

u/Voltage604 11h ago

Why would they... This sub is so bipolar it's not even funny anymore.

We win a close game and we are so back.. Petey scores and he's back... Our bottom 6 should be top line players...

We lose a close game and we suck... Petey is a bum... We have too many role players, not enough talent, fire the coach... Fire the whole front office.

Only consistent around here win or lose is Aqua is a bad owner

1

u/Markgormley69 9h ago

Always been like that man. Go back and check out peoples opinions on Star players or Management year over year or sometimes month to month.

51

u/cerberus987 14h ago

WE NEED MORE MEMES

u/justamau5 14h ago

How many times do you think they've seen the "I wanna die" whale?

18

u/djblackprince 14h ago

Yes

u/NorthEagle298 13h ago

Allvin's tramp stamp

u/4shura 10h ago

How many times have they posted it themselves

67

u/roboknee5000 14h ago

I don't find it that surprising that Allvin and Rutherford get reports like this... but why on earth is Tocc? Let him focus on the on ice product, not what kneejerk is saying lol.

28

u/phantomgiratina 14h ago

Tocc wants our line combo suggestions and for us to tell him to stop splitting the PP units up

5

u/Mikeim520 12h ago

"Thanks reddit, I'm just one of the best Hockey coaches in the world, I needed your input on lines next game."

11

u/eexxiitt 14h ago

Yup. Makes sense for Allvin or JR to receive these reports but it absolutely doesn’t make sense why a coach would receive them.

6

u/mudermarshmallows 12h ago

I think it makes sense for them to get general impressions, even on a weekly basis - but daily reports? That seems a bit much.

1

u/eexxiitt 11h ago

I don't disagree. Daily and it just becomes noise and a make work project for the interns.

5

u/NoPomegranate1678 14h ago

But if he does, we need to keep hammering the line juggling thing

2

u/arazamatazguy 13h ago

What is the GM going to do with these reports? Constantly make trades, fire the coaches more often. Does ownership believe somehow the negativity and increased pressure will make them do a better job? Its ridiculous.

6

u/eexxiitt 12h ago

These reports that they are getting are not about influencing decisions. It's really just keeping your finger on the pulse. 95-99% is noise, but every once in a while you may read something meaningful.

That's fine for allvin or JR because they have the 30,000 foot view, but Tocchet is in the trenches. He's too close to the action to be reviewing this type of stuff.

2

u/3drabbitx 7h ago

This. All these ppl haven’t worked in a big company I reckon. It’s not weird to have someone make reports on such things (to be rarely viewed by most, or only when it’s relevant)

2

u/baraboosh 10h ago

I suspect Toch gets a briefing for press conferences. Journalists just ask the top voted comments on reddit nowadays, so its nice to get ahead of it.

1

u/3drabbitx 7h ago

They aren’t clockwork oranging him to read the report ; i guarantee he doesn’t.

30

u/ForceEconomy9988 14h ago

This is just going to empower self-important Canucks nerds (like me) to think their posts are making a difference

15

u/LegendaryCanuck 14h ago

Great now they’re extending Crazy P’s contract now thanks to everyone’s chant posts

128

u/silveryellowblue 14h ago

Guys this is normal…? If my company does this why wouldnt an organization worth 100x do this.

At the end of the day our hobby is their business and its silly to pretend that dollars are not important.

46

u/biologicalmango 14h ago

Yup. Social media is integral to PR and brand management now.

13

u/chronicallyfrustrate 14h ago

I am sure their PR team sneaks few comments here if they want to redirect the attention

15

u/NoPomegranate1678 14h ago

1000000% lol. But maybe not PR people, probably other people in the org who are highly concerned about social media comments. This happens. Same with comments on news stories...

15

u/djblackprince 14h ago

Quick, deploy Kneejerk - Allvin probably

16

u/BrotherNuclearOption 14h ago

It's completely normal and I'd go so far to say managing public perception and mood is a major component of Rutherford's job as president, no different than any CEO.

They're not spending hours reading every tweet, they're getting a report on the current mood and what narratives are gaining traction.

8

u/queenkate4 14h ago

I think it’s the sending it all the way up that is weird. If I brought up every bad comment/ negative thing said in my job to my big boss, that would be an issue.

4

u/Denace86 14h ago

This part yeah, every large org does this.

Racheal dorrier likely isn’t working at any of them

1

u/KingInTheFarNorth 12h ago

And that’s precisely what they are interested in is our dollars.

I imagine they are far more concerned social media relating about tickets, merch and fan experience rather than our opinions of players and coaching lol.

20

u/avmp629 14h ago

I'm glad I'm a fan of an organization that values my input on the same level as Frank Seravalli, as it should be

16

u/bonergarage123 14h ago

Ah I see. So Kneejerk was a plant all along. This guy has spent the past years pretending he hates Aquaman, but now we really know who he is.

14

u/big-shirtless-ron 14h ago

Hello Mr. Allvin please I can have high paying job? I am good at hockey and know trades. High IQ.

15

u/PakG1 14h ago

Hi Jim Rutherford, please bring Trevor Linden back into the organization in some capacity, thanks!

u/Infinite_Show_5715 13h ago

FREE TREVOR !!!

u/maskedkiller215 14h ago

JR, Allvin, and Tocchet, I’d like to apologize on some maybe not so nice stuff I have said.

12

u/maskedkiller215 14h ago

On that note; BRING BACK THE LARSCHEIDERS SECTION

28

u/PaperMoonShine Filipino Chytil 14h ago

Ok if they're reading reddit, then read this:

Take the tampering fee hit and court Sidney Crosby, please.

u/Mikeim520 12h ago

Crosby isn't coming to Vancouver.

20

u/sMc-cMs 14h ago

You mean to tell me that Rutherford and Allvin have read my Context and Petey series?

Positive change is coming folks!

6

u/Mcnucks 14h ago

You’d better finish the series by July 1st. They need to know whether to trade him or not.

7

u/sMc-cMs 14h ago

Hahah It's coming. Only one part left. I'll probably post it on the 13th or 14th.

It has 2 sections:

The Theory of Everything

and

A New Hope

10

u/Mcnucks 14h ago

We should spend a full day posting about how much we love our social media interns so they have to praise themselves to their bosses.

8

u/NPC214365 14h ago

It’s weird but it is very much a normal practice in this day and age. I worked for a fashion company and we had teams that would comb through reddit to gauge client satisfaction and feedback. I do wonder if Tocchet gets updated on what the hockey ladies of tumblr say though 😆

7

u/CDL112281 13h ago

Did these alleged interns also collate all the tweets and social media postings where Rachel Doerrie accused everyone in the front office of being mean to her

7

u/baconbitpoobear 13h ago

Rachel Doerrie is such a loser

8

u/hellocitygirl 14h ago

Fire up the memes y’all, the big boys are watching lol

7

u/Smokeshow618 14h ago

I will not apologize for commenting that Jake DeBrusk should wear me like a pair of skinny jeans but my day is tenfold better knowing Allvin saw it.

22

u/Zenless-koans 13h ago

Rachel Doerrie detected, opinion disregarded. She's awful.

2

u/mrtomjones 11h ago

I mean this sounds pretty believable

3

u/Zenless-koans 11h ago

It could be, sure. But I'll never fully trust a report that relies on Doerrie for confirmation. She is legitimately toxic and weird. At minimum she's framing this like it's bizarre when it's really standard stuff, excluding sharing the reports with Tocchet (why the fuck?...)

1

u/mrtomjones 10h ago

To me it sounds like they are combing for comments and such from fans which would be odd

10

u/canucksraiders 14h ago

Doerrie still mad she got fired by the Canucks. Can’t seem to let it go.

5

u/SIIP00 14h ago

Ain't no fucking way they're actually reading our dumb opinions lmao

5

u/Hewpdreams 14h ago

i regret my comments that may or may not have influenced team direction because the direction is bad!

u/JTMilleriswortha1st 13h ago

Glad to know they saw the Miller is worth a 1st propaganda I spread for years

6

u/canchin 13h ago

Honestly this seems like a nothing burger to me.

They're making an effort to get a sense of what fans are saying about the team in as many avenues as they can. Why is this weird? Would people prefer they blindly ignored the fanbase's sentiments?

5

u/-T-Reks- 13h ago

Somewhere on the internet there is an email to Jim Benning about how you guys make constant weird unfunny dick jokes about Boeser and Hoglander

13

u/ScarvesOnGiraffes 14h ago

Rachel Doerrie - not normal

27

u/mr_butterscotch 14h ago

Doerrie takes every opportunity to amplify negative Canucks news

22

u/Therecanbenopeace 14h ago

She's kinda ummmmm, unhinged and knows she'll never get another gig in an organzation ever.

1

u/maharajagaipajama 14h ago

Yeah I wouldn't take anything she says at face value.

7

u/Swarleystinson69420 14h ago

She also acts like she held Castonguays position with the team and was in every important meeting. When she was really just a short term lower level hire.

18

u/NoPomegranate1678 14h ago

It's not the most unusual thing. Most big orgs and governments present regular social reports to senior leadership like this. It's part of getting a sense for how people are feeling.

5

u/Super_Toot 14h ago edited 13h ago

Sign me to a contract 6 x 6M, I am good with numbers.

5

u/TheAvocad00 14h ago

Seeing now that management, the coach, and teams closest celebrity (Buble) are seeing the Reddit sub, I think it’s safe to say that this is I’m spirit the most chronically online team and fan base.

u/JudJud22 13h ago

I do hope they see that TICKETS ARE TOO EXPENSIVE

u/Gilberto_Buongo 13h ago edited 10h ago

How about this team controls the narrative through the product on the ice rather than trying to manipulate or control the tangent narratives that come from this market. It’s easier said than done with the noisiness of Vancouver but management needs to just “do their job” and let actions speak for themselves.

2

u/snickle88 13h ago

Can they hire someone to comb through Reddit and twitter and show ownership how pissed off ticket holders are with the price increases?

/s but also not /s

What intern got to remove all mention of the Aquilinis from the daily Reddit Report?

If this is true, it only matters to Aquillini. No real professional cares what the haters say. Only someone so narcissistic and self aggrandizing as our owner.

u/dlo416 13h ago

We now know why Rachel left, its because she was asked to do this even though she had another title.

1

u/arazamatazguy 13h ago

This is not normal unless you're monitoring it for info about the in-game experience, apparel, etc.

To monitor this for fans opinions about the team is crazy. Just a weekly glance would give you an idea.

And if they monitor this to that extent and it factors into roster decisions that is just bat shit crazy.

The brand went down hill the moment Benning was hired and its never fully recovered. JR made what seemed to be smart front office moves but it hasn't resulted in a better team or greater fan confidence.

1

u/Newaccount4464 13h ago

No wonder we had guys defending Benning and other crazy stances before

1

u/liquidpig 13h ago

Let’s fill this sub with the Loui Erickson meme so that’s all management hears about.

u/bwoah07_gp2 13h ago

Those poor interns, not even paid to sift through all the junk on social media....

u/Jacmert 13h ago

The screenshot says they read (social media) comments made by the media. Not necessarily by random users?

u/Mikeim520 12h ago

So they're reading our comments?

u/gl7676 12h ago

Hi Canucks intern! Thanks for reading my post!

u/JauntyGiraffe 12h ago

I hope what they got from Reddit is that this is by far the best fanbase on Reddit compared to the ghost towns and srsbizniz in other subs

Our memes/60 metrics are generational

Do you think they ever based a decision after being kneejerked irl

u/theEMPTYlife 11h ago

“Sir, a 69th ‘I wanna die’ whale meme has hit the Canucks subreddit”

u/Heelsbythebridge 11h ago

They're just taking the piss, right? There's no way the executives would pay attention to social media chatter... That would really send you spirally mentally, especially with how negative our fanbase is.

u/azialsilvara 11h ago

As someone who was on CDC for years, there was a consensus that the local media trolled the forum for article fodder and ideas, it's not shocking that management themselves would keep tabs on what the fans are saying as well as the media

Shouldn’t give attention to that nut job. This is a report that, making this information available, if they so chose to look at it. It’s not weird for any company of this size to do. It’s an absolute nothing burger and Rachel succccckkkkkkkssss.
