I've come to appreciate Hughson's work. Over the past few years, I've gotten into the habit of switching on the television after 10 p.m. hoping that the Canucks were either playing at home, or that Hughson was doing the back end of the Hockey Night in Ca www.canuckscentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10795
