Massive Hell Yeah to the new Prince George Cougars owner Greg Pocock, and heres why. I cohost a sports talk radio program here in town we asked the Cougars if we could get a few minutes of Gregs time for an interview. We were expecting an over the phone thing but we were pleasantly suprised when he offered to come to the studio on Wednesday the 24th. What we originally thought was going to be a 5-10 minute interview turned into a half hour long discussion, and he could not have been any nicer. But it doesnt stop there. After he found out me and my cohost were big fans of the team and long time supporters, he asked us if we wanted to come by the next day (thursday) and he would show us around the rink. We obviously agreed. So thursday roles around and we show up to the CN Center at about 545, and Greg meets us in the concourse. His idea of being shown around the rink was an hour long tour of the ENTIRE facility, all the way up to the press box down to the dressing rooms and coaching offices. He took time to show us all the amazing changes he made for the players and explain each and every one in detail. On what was probably the busiest day of the season, the night before the home opener, he took a full hour out of his time just to show a couple of fans around on a deluxe tour and he was just the definition of hospitality and class. We were absolutley blown away by his actions. The team got killed in the opening game, but with the amount of time, effort, and thinking, not to mention money, that the new owners have put into the team, this is finally a franchise that PGers should feel good to support. So Hell Yeah Greg Pocock, and thanks again!
