On this edition of 含羞草研究社楳OJ on Sports含羞草研究社, host Bob Marjanovich offers an encore podcast interview from the spring of 2022 with the late Gino Odjick.

Odjick quickly endeared himself to the Canucks faithful as that enforcer that they never had.

含羞草研究社楬e also had that smile that would make anyone approaching him feel welcome, yet at the same time it had the capacity to kind of scare you deep down inside含羞草研究社, says the MOJ.

Odjick recognized how much Indigenous youth idolized him and were looking up to him as he had looked up to Boston含羞草研究社檚 Stan Jonathan in the 70含羞草研究社檚.

The 含羞草研究社淛ourney for Healing含羞草研究社 would be the start of a commitment to helping Indigenous youth that would last until the end of his life.

His time as a Canuck ended during the Mark Messier - Mike Kennan era when he was dealt to the Islanders in March of 1998 because of friction between himself and Keenan due to Odjick standing up for his former captain in Trevor Linden and his former head coach in Pat Quinn.

After his career ended, Odjick returned to Vancouver where he would show some shrewd business acumen by buying and revitalizing The Musqueam Golf Course as well taking part in Canuck Alumni events.
