Rustad would not say who searched the phones or if both personal and work phones were searched.

Things got contentious when a reporter from the Canadian Press asked Rustad if he was paranoid.

“That’s bullshit, shut up, you’re cut off,” Rustad’s chief of staff, Brad Zubyk, told the reporter. “You’re not getting another question, ever.”

Zubyk, standing behind Rustad and in view of television cameras, continued to push, telling the reporter, “You’re done here.”

Lots of communication issues to sort out for sure. Insane number of passes to empty open ice from everyone in the first 40.

J.K. Rowling mocks Vancouver Park Board after its apology over Harry Potter event

Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling says being disavowed by the Vancouver Board of Parks wasn’t “much of a blow” after its commissioners unanimously voted to apologize for a Harry Potter event opening in Stanley Park next month.

A discombobulated 40 minutes followed by a monster 3rd for the Canucks. Demko looked great. Bains looked like he really belonged. Chytil a delightful surprise. B- for everyone else

Look I don't want to alarm anyone but Chytil is on pace for a 164 goal season. It's just statistics.

Wow Arshdeep Bains with 3 blocks on that PK. Playing like he wants a roster spot
