In Vancouver it's extremely rare that somebody would approach you, even at dinner or if you were at a bar having a drink. That's been really nice. Getting to watch sports at 4 p.m. instead of 7 is nice, too."Word to that. Still, I'm hoping for many late nights watching lots of Canucks games this year.
