Yes, the Vancouver Canucks are embracing the “a team like that” comment Drew Doughty made about them earlier in the season, after the Canucks beat the Los Angeles Kings by a score of 8-2 in their home opener.
Since people have claimed that Doughty was misquoted, here’s the full quote, per Kings insider Jon Rosen.
“I mean, I ain’t gonna park it, it’s just embarrassing. I mean, a team like that should not be beating a team like ours 8-2. There’s actually no way. I know they had a lot of energy right off the bat because it’s their home opener and they had their whole ordeal with the captain and whatever.
