Does this mean they will be ending their radio show as well? (Yes they have a radio show)

I'm sorry, the green men? Did I step into a time machine and travel back to 2011?

Really, these guys weren't funny when they were around and no one has cared about them the past 3 years either.

The fact that they had that cheesy press conference (which I couldn't finish because it was so lame) made me cringe.

About time, these guys were mildly amusing during the Canucks' cup run, but they really overstayed their welcome after that. Seemed like the media/broadcasters lost interest in this two as well, even the CBC seemed content to ignore showing them or mentioning them during Canucks games.

It was an ok gimmick that added to the playoff atmosphere, there was no reason for them to re-appear during regular season hockey.

I think the daddy's just wanted their seats back. I honestly don't remember seeing them in the past year or so. I know a lot of their antics had to be toned down for insurance purposes.

About time.

Came expecting a thread indicating that the Martians had retired and gone home. Left disappointed.

It's not called quitting if everyone else already stopped noticing years ago, that's just catching up with reality.
