I knew John Garrett for more than 40 years…worked alongside him at Hockey Night in Canada and Sportsnet for half that time. John was everything you could ask for in a friend, a co-worker and a teammate. He did his job with the right level of professionalism… with gravitas and humour. He loved the Canucks, the Blue Jays and being the Grandfather. Most of all, he loved his wife Sharon He was the best of us.

My condolences John. Envious y’all got 2 know him on a level I never will. But in a way, we all felt like we knew him personally. So this one hurts. Rest in peace Cheech. I’m adding an extra dab of ketchup today. Thank you for everything, from the goalie mask to game 8. #Canucks
