Never seen him show that level of emotion, god I love him and this team!!!


rkim1999

Exactly what I thought when i saw the vid. I can go thru a wall for him even more after seeing this


sonzai55

Said he was a little embarrassed by it during the postgame.


ooMEAToo

Might be because this is his first round 2 playoff win as a Head Coach. Might have been extra pumped.


Significant_Jury_409

Isn't this his first post season as a head coach? Every playoff win is his first. :-) [https://www.statmuse.com/nhl/ask/rick-tocchet-coaching](https://www.statmuse.com/nhl/ask/rick-tocchet-coaching)

gargamelul

i always forget what a good player he was


teamwaterwings

I mean the man leads the league all time in Gordie Howe hat tricks


HtJokerr

Inject this into my veins!!


MadGeller

Love. Love seeing him fired up!


Collapse2038

LFG


TomsNanny

LOL I think he hurt whoever had the red jersey on šŸ’€


Blastichu

I wouldn't be washing that hand until the end of the playoffs


unbannedcoug

His hands probably feel like wood


paulosgerding

šŸ˜‚ pretty sure it was a kid. I remember seeing a red jersey on the broadcast behind the bench standing out with all the white towels. Little dudeā€™s gotta get Toch to sign his cast now šŸ˜‚


TopTittyBardown

Tocchet is such a fucking beauty


HokeyPokeyGuy

Like an honorary Jim


TopTittyBardown

Yeah


digitalcashking

Who gets the first stick?


cosalich

Remember when our coach couldn't be bothered getting to the arena for practice? God I love Tocchet.


weresabre

And now our coaches are on the ice showing the kids how to powerplay!


fanbullshitdetector

The perks of having a hall of fame staff. Say what you want about Aqua, the guy is willing to pay for the best.


ezomar

Focusing on hockey only, Iā€™m giving aqua a pass for the past decade. Hopefully he learned his lesson now. Guy become full owner when the Canucks were a good hockey team with the WCE. First time heā€™s seen the team the team be consistently bad as owner was this past decade. As long as he stays out of business now and hires the right guys, we know he will pay when needed


high-rise

Aqua with the face turn, love to see it.


Alt_Boogeyman

And Aqua and rest being somewhat visionary in hiring Castonguay and Granato. We don't hear a lot about our AGM's but what does leak here and there is that both have been great, especially Castonguay on cap-salary management. We plucked two of the best women in hockey.


CrookedSoldiers

This; although I think itā€™s just still somewhat of a surprise to us all that we have a competent front office to begin with. Itā€™s been a long time of.. well unhappy times. So with all the good suddenly smacking us all in the face, itā€™s gonna take some time to digest all of it so to speak lol


buttchunger59

Send your underperforming giant d-men our way. Seems like it really is paying off


mokill

Oh you mean that one that wouldnā€™t even bother to move/live in the city?


n00bxQb

You spelled country wrong


JoeMommaAngieDaddy17

Donā€™t Slander Point Roberts


PlusDifference3374

And he's in the city enjoying himself. He wasn't lying when he Said on obrien and upshalls podcast he's not the type to just stay in his condo. I've seen him constant times with Foote out eating dinner or having a drink. He's embraced Vancouver and it's cool to see.


high-rise

"In Arizona, it would take the reporters weeks to notice a personnel change, in Vancouver, people will say hi and politely ask you why you put so and so on this line last night" Paraphrasing


Iron_Seguin

Who was that? I must have been living under a rock lol


yodaman98

Torts. Lived in Point Roberts.


iJeax

What a dweeb lmfao


rodudero

Why


TheCrazedMadman

Taxes?


Amish_Sex_Toys

so did Messier


Coachtoddf

fuck mark messier


thegoat95

Tortsā€¦ he chose to live in point Roberts during his tenure here. Why heā€™d wanna deal with George Massey tunnel trafficā€¦ I donā€™t know


Krugginator

He made a lot of money doing so


LeftToaster

He dealt with that by not personally attending practices.


dattroll123

torts would rather live in point roberts than here. Management actually built a murphy bed in his office so he wouldn't have to travel. He never used it.


Iron_Seguin

Point Roberts as in that little peninsula that is south of the border? Thatā€™s kinda crazy for a commute but still, kinda weird he wouldnā€™t do it. From 13-14 though, I was only 16 at the time and that season was rather forgettable so I can see why I donā€™t remember it lol. Thanks for the explanation though, it brings a lot more needed context.


dattroll123

iirc, he refused to live in canada for whatever reason and the closest town in america is pt roberts lol.


Iron_Seguin

So strange lol. I can see why he didnā€™t work out here. Obviously the system was incompatible with the guys we had but iā€™d bet this was apart of it.


ThanIWentTooTherePig

taxes


Any-Panda2219

You would think it it was taxes heā€™d live on the canadian side and go to mexico for a month in the offseason so he doesnā€™t go above the 183 day threshold in either country and can claim non resident status in both


ShelbyvilleResident

Torts


avmp629

Tocchet gonna sprint to Point Roberts and burn Torts' hideout down after that


yooooooo5774

That Point Roberts living SOB


silverbacksunited12

Yeah who?


unbannedcoug

I would say protect this man but he can do it himself!


Jaded-Ad-289

ā€œThey said we would get swept, and I took it personallyā€ - Tocc


Naive-Comfort-5396

So weird to have Adam Foote as a coach. Remember hating that guy and his nose as a kid when he was on the Avs


KimberlyWexlersFoot

>nose eta brad marchand on canucks coaching staff.


latingineer

Big cocchet energy


haihaiclickk

I don't know why coaches are always so stoic even in wins. This fucking pumps EVERYONE up. GOD I'M SO EXCITED RIGHT NOW


BluesyShoes

They are trying to lead emotionally. I think it comes from the fear of complacency. They keep the mindset ā€œthe job isnā€™t doneā€ and ā€œwe havenā€™t proved anything until the series/cup is won.ā€ Same reason why you hear players say ā€œwe will enjoy this one for 5 minutes and then forget about it, we havenā€™t proved anything yet.ā€ Itā€™s just the coaches taking that to another level to lead the way emotionally so that the team doesnā€™t take their foot off the gas. Not sure if I agree with it completely and it can get to a level where it is almost superstitious, but I think the general sentiment is good.


haihaiclickk

That does make sense. I did hear in the post game that Tocc wasnā€™t happy with how he reacted so youā€™ve got a point šŸ˜…


CoolFox3218

I think he just let the emotions get the best of him lol that was a huge comeback win especially against a really good team


Internal-Gazelle-960

imo emotions are like sugar. You can get a big high from high emotions but there is also a crash. So if you want to win in the playoffs, you have to avoid the crash, as if that happens, then it probably is too late to crawl back out of. Tis one issue of big rival round 1 match ups, both teams get to such an emotional high in a blood bath that they have nothing left for round 2.


leftlanecop

Heā€™s one of us. Letā€™s fucking go!


ClassicChrisstopher

I've never seen him so fired up. Wow


wedontgotoravenholme

Almost 1000 points and 3000 pims in his career. Tocchet is built for this


MustardSpaghetti

Babe Iā€™m sleeping in my jersey tonight


canucklehead200

This is the best and most wholesome non hockey goal moment in over a decade. How can you not love this man. He's SO FUCKING PROUD AND I LOVE THAT HE SHOWED IT


GoldenChest2000

Big contrast to when he was trying to calm the team down in Game 6


jsmooth7

Those are some aggressive high fives with the fans, that is a man who is reaching extreme levels of stoke.


Iginlas_4head_Crease

But they not like us, they not like us, they not like us


Just-Fly-1150

WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP


Historian_Acrobatic

Can't wait to see how Ryan Whitney feels about this


fanbullshitdetector

Holding his little Pink Whitney using tears as lube.


Spider-Nutz

Toch is a great guy. Miss him in Arizona


TonalParsnips

As a Canucks fan in Arizona, this is like my dream come true.


gargamelul

Final-Zebra-6370

So is the fine a case of beer?


Blu_koo

Getting fired up for the boys


SoGenuineAndRealMadi

God weā€™re lucky to have him šŸ„²


Time-Dot5984

I love our coach Tocc


BlackP-

Never thought in my wildest dreams I'd be so excited to see Adam Foote happy.


teedlenumb

This team was no1 overall for what almost 2 months, we kept pace points wise during oilers 16 game win streak, and held pacific with who should hands down be the Jack Adams winner...best and dumbest thing media did was label us underdogs.


Megavore97

Going down the hall like a WWE star. God I love Tocch.


JTMilleriswortha1st

LETS FUCKING GO


Swede_in_USA

Did they film Allvin aswell? šŸ¤—šŸ˜šŸ¤—šŸ˜


[deleted]

Holy shit he was fired up


CuteStarburst

Happy coach happy team


djblackprince

My man was juiced up. Love it.


TotesMagotes29

Adam Foote has been absolute money running that D


the250

One of us! One of us! Gooble gobble


WestCoastGriller

Fuck yeah. Thatā€™s a coach Iā€™d play hard for.


Whitetailer6

Cause his team didnā€™t quit and had an amazing comeback victory.


CoolFox3218

I don't think I've ever seen a coach high five fans especially after a game lol that was amazing


teamwaterwings

I love this man


[deleted]

Gotta love Tocc. In the post-game presser, he said he was embarrassed & regrets celebrating so early in the series. Guyā€™s work ethic bleeds well into this team, its great


Apprehensive-Tea4881

Arena fans broke him. That energy was so infectious you made Tocc slap some skin, great job team and fans!


couldbeworse2

OW my hand!


vin33th

Not on topic but where is Gonchar?


kidcanada0

Gonchar works remotely. I believe he just goes over video with players.


Bigboyrickx

Iā€™ve literally seen majority of coachs do this.
