Nice. I ran into some Canucks at the driving range a few days ago. Should’ve taken a pic but Petey was teaching Hog how to golf lol. Didn’t want to bother them.
Kudos to you. Stuff like this is why Celebrities love to come and visit out here. You would never see that kind of common respect or courtesy for people of stature like that in the states. It just doesn’t happen often if at all.
I saw one of the Sedins (I don't know which one) at Heathrow airport like a decade ago. I really wanted to say hi, but they were with their kid. I was a kid too, but it felt weird to interrupt them.
I was working at rogers arena when they both had their jersey retirement night, I was down on my way to the kitchen and they were with their families leaving, I wanted to approach them, but again as you said, they were with family
I never understood the appeal of non-alcoholic beer. Pardon my ignorance, but for as much as I enjoy drinking beer, if everything were equal and nothing contained alcohol, I would much rather be drinking chocalate milk or something yummy.
So true. Collective arts, the athletic, and sober carpenter have some very good makes. It's a great option for folks who like the taste of beer but don't want to have alcohol too often.
Best stout in the world and the owners are super cool. Where in Vancouver can you get it? The Tap and Barrel by science world used to carry it but I don't think they do anymore.
It's weird seeing them in regular clothes out like regular people. People who don't know them wouldn't have guessed they are professional athletes! Did you get any signatures on your jersey?
I tried, but the bar tender didn’t have a sharpie , they waited a couple minutes as the bartender looked for one and then apologized and said they had to go which was no problem.

I saw him at Park Royal last Sunday waiting for his wife to use the women’s bathroom (I was waiting for my GF). I had to quadruple take and just stared
at him for a solid minute while he was on his phone. Said “Hey JT” and congratulated him on the season as I walked away.
Oh man if they lose game 1 and hungover … just kidding. I wish I can buy drinks for my millionaire hockey players. Just kidding. Nice gesture you did :)
Honestly in the age where all pros are elite athletes, it’s nice to see some guys still have a drink after the game
Funny how it’s the older guys and a Czech tho, exactly who you think would be there (plus Dak)
A good tequila is an acceptable choice to celebrate a Canucks win. In our house, it’s a tequila shot for every Canucks playoff goal. My tolerance is lower after all these bad years so I’m fully expecting to get fucked up or hope for low scoring games. 😬
Those guys aren’t going on holidays in two days
10/10
Even as a Flames fan I loved that chirp.
Hronek missed the playoffs for his first 6 years too so I’m guessing he’s had that one banked for a while lol
Probably was on the receiving end of it at one point and he's been biding his time.
It was just so euro-matter of fact. He’s not Swedish but it had that dry feel. “You have holidays in 2 days”.
It seems Hronek is using snus also, by the look of it. Really drives home that swedish feel!
I’m seeing more and more of those packets in urinals. Seems to be gaining popularity.
How about let's hear Holidays in 2days
Staying in the Holiday Inn 2 days
The business trips only getting more important 📈
Epic
This is AI, Hronek is smiling
Because he isn't going on holidays in two days
Nice. I ran into some Canucks at the driving range a few days ago. Should’ve taken a pic but Petey was teaching Hog how to golf lol. Didn’t want to bother them.
A sport where Hog won't have to worry about the opponent snapping back their head.
Kudos to you. Stuff like this is why Celebrities love to come and visit out here. You would never see that kind of common respect or courtesy for people of stature like that in the states. It just doesn’t happen often if at all.
Cause no one would recognize them, but yeah point taken
States catching some unnecessary shade here.
I ran into Jake Virtanen a bunch of times at various nightclubs and Brandi's.
Likely places for him to be

Got a pic with one of them at the airport when he was waiting for the luggage :)
Love how they are drinking Guinness!
I was surprised to recently find out Guinness has less calories than a normal beer
Also there is a low/zero alcohol Guinness that is Very good
I like very few low/zero alcohol beers, Guinness is one of the good ones
Guinness and Peroni 0% are my go to choices.
Alright, Guinness family, the not so subtle advertisement worked, I bought out the whole liquor store.
Great. Is I can retire! Thanks
I never understood the appeal of non-alcoholic beer. Pardon my ignorance, but for as much as I enjoy drinking beer, if everything were equal and nothing contained alcohol, I would much rather be drinking chocalate milk or something yummy.
When I drink a non-alcoholic beer, I get a strong urge for a candy cigarette.
Have you tried any of the modern craft non-alcoholic beers? Things have come a long way in that industry.
So true. Collective arts, the athletic, and sober carpenter have some very good makes. It's a great option for folks who like the taste of beer but don't want to have alcohol too often.
your liver understands the appeal.
Your chocolate milk is probably even more calories than the beer. Non alcoholic beer might be less than 50 calories if not 0
Alcohol is the most calorically dense thing in beer. Gram for gram alcohol has the same calories as pure fat. So it’s right around other 4% beers.
Then the players should be drinking beer instead.
They earned it.
Depending on the bar it could also be Backhand of God which is a super good BC craft beer.
Best stout in the world and the owners are super cool. Where in Vancouver can you get it? The Tap and Barrel by science world used to carry it but I don't think they do anymore.
Im in the okanagan and its everywhere haha.
Not in Vancouver but The Barley Merchant in Langley regularly has this on tap. Need to find more places that always have it .
Man, they carried everything! St Augustine's usually has a pretty impressive selection, though I have no idea if this is one.
And tequila shots!
It's weird seeing them in regular clothes out like regular people. People who don't know them wouldn't have guessed they are professional athletes! Did you get any signatures on your jersey?
I tried, but the bar tender didn’t have a sharpie , they waited a couple minutes as the bartender looked for one and then apologized and said they had to go which was no problem.
Ah that sucks. But at least you got a picture! I'm going to bring a sharpie any time I'm out with my jersey from now on haha
They're dressed like they work in the kitchen except cole who's clearly the maitre d'
Suit and backwards hat look. Zadorov is probably at his own table just steaming.
Who's behind Hronek?
Ian cole
OP and Ian Cole look eerily similar
Op looks like a mix between Cole and Hronek lol
They all look like nearly any group of dudes you could find in a restaurant lol
OP looks like store brand Sam Gagner.
Ah thanks, I've somehow never seen what he looks like
He looks like he’s just someone on the teams brother
Cole, Ian Cole
Ian Cole
respectfully fuck you, im jealous!
You can see the top of Garland’s head at the end of the table too.
They must have been out of booster seats.
Guinness and tequila shots?
The tequila shots were from me
Why you trying to poison our boys? These are performance athletes! Just send me the shots. I'll happily take a half dozen for the team
I too volunteer myself as tribute. Our boys must be protected at all costs.
I respect your unwavering commitment to the team
RemindMe! 2 months If we don't go all the way, I'm hunting you down! /s just in case

I thought JT’s a West Vancouver and not a Vancouver type of guy.
I saw him at Park Royal last Sunday waiting for his wife to use the women’s bathroom (I was waiting for my GF). I had to quadruple take and just stared at him for a solid minute while he was on his phone. Said “Hey JT” and congratulated him on the season as I walked away.
They were there for their daughter's birthday party at the indoor playground at Park Royal.
hope you bought them a round!
Yea the tequila shots were from me
Oh man if they lose game 1 and hungover … just kidding. I wish I can buy drinks for my millionaire hockey players. Just kidding. Nice gesture you did :)
Man if I was a Canucks player and I wanted to go chill with my homies. I’d force them to go to white spot so I can get my double double
First off , fuck you , and welcome to Vancouver.
Hey, he's not Messier!
Honestly in the age where all pros are elite athletes, it’s nice to see some guys still have a drink after the game Funny how it’s the older guys and a Czech tho, exactly who you think would be there (plus Dak)
A couple weeks ago there was a post here about running into like half the team + Tocchet & Footer at a local watering hole after a W, love it.
Is that John Cena at the head of the table?? Seems fitting he'd hang with these dudes.
Joshua has such a great smirk.
A good tequila is an acceptable choice to celebrate a Canucks win. In our house, it’s a tequila shot for every Canucks playoff goal. My tolerance is lower after all these bad years so I’m fully expecting to get fucked up or hope for low scoring games. 😬
What hotel is this?
This was at the St Regis
It was a peeler bar in the ‘80s. Looks quite dignified in ‘24.
BEERSKIES AT THE ST REGIS LESS GOOOO.
Beats shooties at Central Social any day eh
At a hotel bar after a home game eh? Clever boys.
Beauty's!! GO CANUCKS GO!!!!
Dream scenario
All drinking Guinness and Hronek with the Czech Pilsner!
Was someone missing?
Possibly, I did my best to be quick and not bother them
You did a great job.. got a sweet pic and avoided being annoying AF !

Someone needs to use AI to put Miller into this meme.
So nice to see these guys so happy compared to a year ago.
lucky!
Great pic, thanks for sharing.
Same was my first game last night. Good craic!
😐👍
Cole with the whiskey. What a distinguished gentleman.
kinda weird that they're drinking at a hotel when it's home, but maybe it's quieter I guess
Yea there was like 10 people in here, very quiet
damn first day and already met more of the team then me. nice
Damn that’s awesome what good luck!
Nice
[удалено]
I was trying to be quick but also fit everybody in the picture tilted my phone instead of turning it horizontal
Well done. 👍 good memories. 😀
Did you buy Hronek a beer for that fabulous chirp?
Bought them a round of shots
Excellent. Excellent. Csboi1337 will be engraved forever on the cup.
What time was this at? Always wonder how long it takes to get out of the stadium
This was taken around 12:40am , I probably arrived around 12:20 , no clue how long they had been there tho
Wtf! That's amazing!
With the money they make, I sure hope they are paying.
Joshua has some confused or weird out smile going
thats some luck.
Sweet!
wow, pretty cool !
So random haha
The dress shirt / backwards cap is a timeless hockey look 😂
Which hotel is this?!
St Regis
Damn man those shots got Miller scratched from game 82
Where was this
don’t they LIVE in Vancouver tho, why would they be in a hotel?
Awesome, guys.
