The reporters were giving him a chance to praise Petey, actually. The reality is that Tocchet was pissed off before the interview started, and he snapped a little, then quickly regained his composure. If it were me coaching the Canucks and having to constantly face those questions, I can guarantee I would have some Torts moments. 😂
Petey struggled for the first few weeks of the season, with major mental blocks. Tocchet was triggered by it because he's been working hard to break Petey out of his funk. A lot of those mental blocks were because of the media piling stress on him with finger-pointing. Petterson would read into that shit too much, and he took it very personally. It wasn't until Petey put his social media on pause, that he started to come around. For Tocchet, it's very personal, because he's spending lots of time with Petterson, essentially acting like a counselor (They've had a lot of walks together along Ambleside, and the Sea Wall), and the finger-pointing is also a shot at Tocchet's character and ability to coach. The fact of the matter is, Petterson has been playing better as of late, and he's got the results to back it up.
@chrisdranfield3828 he is picking up points because he is a part of the solution when he is out there. It's a team game and he makes his team better with a lot of smart skilled plays
More better questions that needed to be ask why you scratch Branny, why is you offense trash, why is Soucy on the PK, tf is the Petey question still a thing
Well obviously not. People rag on Petey so much but he scored a goal and got an assist and he's also very defensively reliable. He's not quite as dynamic offensively as he used to be but I think that's the system. He's transforming into a Bergeron type of player I think
$16.82 million CAD per year means Petey is always going to be in the spotlight and for some 40 games he was not playing up to what he is being paid- to put it kindly. So,yes,he was a fucking problem that became a major distraction.
@roundnround365 he got paid based on previous experience and previous success. His new contract only kicked in this season. Hopefully he gets another 100 point season so you can all shut up.
I mean initially Farhan was praising Petey in the question he asked.. all Tocc had to do was answer it and move on.. but it triggered him for no reason (this time). Go rewatch the question asked initially, I don't see anything wrong with that question and nothing bad was said about Petey. And then after Tocc did his rant.. he said he's joking and answered the question as he should've because he realized he was going overboard.
@@jessebremner5209 Well the questions about petey will still be asked so no point in being aggressive/retaliating.. just answer the question with a simple answer and move on.
Probably because he's been getting a little greedy and needs to take a step back a bit. Couple of times he thinks he's Hughes/Garland and tries to punch it through the neutral zone when he really should be focusing on breaking out.
I was at the game and Friedman played like he hadnt been in the NHL for months with no offense. Honestly Soucey played worse but we couldve only benefited by having Brannstrom.
Man Canadian hockey fans/ reporters are relentless on certain players and or subjects. Petey is fine back to almost a point per game. He’s your highest paid and most talented player surround him with the best talent you have and put him in a position to keep having success!
I was at the game and Soucey as much as I like him was an absolute liability out there. He just let Holloway skate in and score the OT winner with zero resistance. We needed Brannstrom.
Wasn’t just him. DeBrusk missed his assignment which made Soucy play it like a 2 on 1 because Blueger didn’t call out that he had the other guy. Just a line breakdown in general, and a nice shot.
Petey has 22 points in his last 14 games, including two tonight, and the first question out of Farhan’s mouth is what Tocchet thought of his performance lol. What a goof. Good on coach for shutting that nonsense down.
Guys like Don Taylor & Jason Brough are to blame for people piling on Petey. It’s pathetic watching Don Taylor try & find any reason to criticize Petey. His obsession is weird. Just wish he criticized Virtanen 1/100th the amount he does Petey
On Hal and Brough, they discussed this line, "I'm trying not to fall into your trap" ....So by this rationale Coach feels he can't state the obvious to the press... which is that Petey isn't playing at the level anyone media/organization likes. It's a good take even if the Coach was half-kidding when he said it. IMO, this is a good sign for the organization to not feed the Piranhas. Petey doesn't respond to getting more pressure thrown onto his back.. He needs to try and get comfortable which is different under a contract so huge. Maybe just my opinion, but 11 million$ a year isn't the only thing that makes a player awesome on a team. His teammates, the organization and the fans have to play the part in supporting him and not fall for the negative vitriol the Vancouver Press will put out there if you don't go on a scoring tear while your roster is decimated. Nobody will read all this. Fan gotta vent. Go Petey, Go!
Tocchet needs to put everyone through fundamentals again...the pressure and forechecking looked right, but the amount of bobbling of the puck and miscues cost us a lot of opportunities.
I mean, to be fair. Petey is making 11.6mil and teams get asked about their best players the most. But I do think more players on this team need to be called out and not just Petey. Although in this situation it felt like they were praising Petey. Lol. We need to start holding other players accountable, from the media side. Soucy and Myers have been a gong show on more than a few occasions. Boeser turning back into 2 defenders in OT instead of just skating out with the puck. There are 20+ players on this team and we talk about maybe 4 of them. Miller, Hughes, Petey and Sherwood cause he hits a lot and even that is just the same question about Sherwood's physicality. These guys really out here getting paid to ask the same stupid questions about the same 4 players.
not demonstrated here, but these gossip pieces (news reporters) about petey, miller, hogman stuff about their personal lives, etc should result in some form of discipline, spend a day cleaning horshit out of a barn or something ... definitely should go after the companies pushing their reps and then selling shock and awe BSers into line... Trudeau, taught em good... hahah
STFU Franco. Petey is an excellent center and leagues ahead of Brady! He has been producing almost every game for the past month and is just behind Hughes in points. Leave him alone you POS
I agree if he has a choice he would trade Petey. He is just not his guy. But I think Tocchet only knows what he knows and doesnt know how to handle talents like Petey. He makes contradicting statement sometimes. He emphasizes simple play. But if the guy is not producing, he would say guy needs to be doing this and that, be aggressive, etc. But the thing is those pretty little passes he makes are not simple and sometimes risky but it yields a goal, he is quick to react if Petey makes mistakes.
People ask about Pete because he ain’t playing great, for 11 million he is crap, other teams come to our barn, win the games, other teams best players always play great but Pete isn’t playing up to his skill
Goal and a game-tying assist last night and rang one off the crossbar. If that’s crap I’d like to know what kind of play/numbers you need to elevate a player above the shit line.
I'm not a PeeWee fan. He is developing very slowly. I hope he surprises me and learns how to be a pro and train HARD in the off-season. He needs to spend the summer with Nate McKinnon, Brad Marchand and Sidney Crosby, and learn how to be a pro.
@@brodieb5066 I guess I’m petty but I’ll always see him one way and that’s injuring people like a gutless rat and not winning a damn thing since being named captain.
This guy is a great coach but as long as the donkeys rutherford and the GM are there they will never win the cup...Its called Karma after what they did to Bruce
Have you even watched the recent games he started of the season horribly but has rebounded to a point per game and is going to progress back to 100 points soon
You sound like a broken record. Get over it, the salary is not gonna change and petey is not gonna have 180 points. Do you feel better if oetey has 160 points and canucks miss tje playoffs?
AHL level defense that gave up 5 breakaways and multiple odd man rushes is way more concerning. Petey even plays better defense than our actual defense. Also almost back to being over a point per game after a slow start to the season.
Vancouver media sucks. They need to fire every reporter asking the same stupid questions.
they are all the same if not worse in big market cities like TO Montreal NYC
Good for Tochs for sticking up for Petey.

@@MrPointmidget So many excuses for a guy making his salary.
@ playoff Petey is everyone.
Pete's kind of pulled his shit together, ppl just need to let him play at this point.
How the hell are Demko questions not first
He has not, he’s picking up points because he’s now out with Hughes instead of miller but he’s still a shell of what he was.
@chrisdranfield3828 he is picking up points because he is a part of the solution when he is out there. It's a team game and he makes his team better with a lot of smart skilled plays
They would both be out with hughes ..he plays almost half the game and they all play pp1..u make little to no sense
@@jessebremner5209 lol, pretty sure this guy thinks huggies a forward. Really makes that Norris more impressive.
More better questions that needed to be ask why you scratch Branny, why is you offense trash, why is Soucy on the PK, tf is the Petey question still a thing
"Rick just your thoughts on...Petey?"
Petey Petey Petey lol
Was praising Petey?!
Rick, regarding…Petey?
Rick, Petey?
Petey was fine. Definitely not the fucking problem.
Soucey on the other hand
Well obviously not. People rag on Petey so much but he scored a goal and got an assist and he's also very defensively reliable. He's not quite as dynamic offensively as he used to be but I think that's the system. He's transforming into a Bergeron type of player I think

@@rileyhun3710he’s been our best player behind Hughes and people still give him shit lol.
Farhan for called out. Good to see. Reality is, like Tocc said, when he was on T&T they wouldn't attack one guy the entire time.
Just look what Soucey did on the Holloway goal in OT its a perfect example
Farhan is easily the least professional reporter here, and quite possibly the least intelligent one too.
I mean initially Farhan was praising Petey in the question he asked.. all Tocc had to do was answer it and move on.. but it triggered him for no reason (this time).

Why did he scratch brannstrom????
Don't know. But deharnais can't skate worth of dickey lol
Ong brannstrom has been our only good depth defender
Probably because he's been getting a little greedy and needs to take a step back a bit. Couple of times he thinks he's Hughes/Garland and tries to punch it through the neutral zone when he really should be focusing on breaking out.

@@SokomPwnageIs that really a bad thing if he keeps trying that in game eventually he will get good at that
It’s always Petey but they never ask about the actually contentious players. Has he even gotten a question about Hoglander or Desharnais?
Rick why is it dark at night why is the grass green ……Christ it’s a long season shit happens bodies get hurt RELAX
Can always tell the hockey players 👍👍🏒🏒😎
Glovey McGlovin, I’m still your number one fan❤️❤️❤️. Great post as usual
Get in line buddy
Wait till Captain Hughes got paid, Farhan will start picking his little mistakes.
Farhan is the worst.
"Gotta meet Petey, with Petey."
Man Canadian hockey fans/ reporters are relentless on certain players and or subjects. Petey is fine back to almost a point per game. He’s your highest paid and most talented player surround him with the best talent you have and put him in a position to keep having success!
wtf is this coaching staff doing. Definitely some dumbass decisions recently and scratching Brannstrom is dumb af.
This is the first time I can remember where Tocchet is sounds obviously annoyed/short with the media.
refs should go in the box for bad calls
I don't think I could handle the media without losing my cool.
I was at the game and Soucey as much as I like him was an absolute liability out there. He just let Holloway skate in and score the OT winner with zero resistance. We needed Brannstrom.

Holy cow u. We’re at the game
U mean u actually wasted your money to go see these guys play

I’m tired of Petey too
Best coach

The ref(s) penalized Brock for "tripping", and they score...
That media guy saying well he gets paid alot should be banned. It's media like that is what's makes our media the worse.
Man, being a Vancouver Canucks coach seems alot like being the President of the United States. Every week Tocchet looks a year older.
chill bro hes literally 60. he actually looks really young for his age
Having worked both sides of the game of course he not going to fall for that amateur hour mind game
I think, part of why he is paid big money is his marketability. Look how crazy this fan base and media about him. LOL even Tocchet is up to the hype.
don't ask tocch about pete (he gets enuff of those Q's

Swiss cheese defense
It’s embarrassing to watch/listen to the same low quality questions from these reporters.
This team needs some defensive help ASAP.

We are all Petey

I think the booing is not helping our team move forward
Booing who?
The boos in OT were for StLouis pulling out of the offensive zone to regroup
Good teams are consistent and find ways to win close games. Canucks have neither of those abilities.
This is a top tier one
The questions other then the black pads are bad on demko
Canucks fans are the worse lol peteys finally stepping up and it’s still not good enough? Love seeing these armchair gms on here
9 million a season of course its petey petey petey and man i hope demko isnt going to make 3 goals his avg
It’s 11.6.
And. Hope the D isn’t going to average 5 breakaways a game against whole Demko is in net.
Booo
Bet Rick would love to trade #40 😅 ask Grapes 🍇 stick with Kevy
11.6 is too soft and floats most of the time definitely not a grapes type of player
trade #40 and Hoggy for Brady Tkachuk
