I just heard the producer (Connor) on Team 1040 mention something on-air regarding Sekeres' attempt to confront the referees after the game. It sounded like an attempt at an apology/justification saying that Matt is a passionate guy.
They keep insulating there was a referee bias because of the difference in powerplays that the Canucks received compared to the Sharks (24 to 14). What these idiots forget is that 5 of those powerplays occurred during the 3rd period of the third game when the Canucks went off the rails and were blown out. So really there was barely a difference between the two teams.
In terms of meaningful time the man advantages were a lot closer than people keep saying (including Aaron Ward).

The brooms came out, what a sight! The Canucks are the first team in the playoffs to have this song played and hopefully it was cranked up on the bus ride to the airport. Have fun Loserongo and give back your gold medal. Sing it loudly everyone, the Canucks deserve this song.
Unless his name is Peter Mahr right? Funny how you pick and choose which media members you defend and how we are sensitive but you pointing out Peter Mahr is losing it is fine and dandy.
Has a GM ever been let go without ever hiring a coach?
I think AV goes, but Gillis is staying a little bit longer.
Gillis will probably get one more coach to burn through but you can make a case for him to be fired given his stubborness/inability to deal with the lingering Luongo issue. Gillis seems to be putting his ego ahead of what's best for the team in insisting he's going to receive top compensation when he needs to accept that teams simply aren't going to give up top assets for that contract. Personally I hope Gillis keeps his job as he's doing a fine job of riding Nonis's team into the ground.
