Peter Davies of AHA MEDIA in Vancouver Canuck Fans promo video shoot
Peter Davies says
Today was a day unlike most where I was able to go down to Rogers Arena to help support my team. The call went out for volunteers to be a part of a promo video for the Canucks and there I was cheering and waving alongside everyone else. Roger Neilson (whose statue we wer under) would have been proud as we waved the “white towel” and wore our Canucks jerseys.
