Bruce was my absolute favorite Oiler's writer. I didn't have a second favorite Oiler writer.
Was sad to hear the news of his passing.
RIP Bruce.

Legitimately one of the only Oilers media who I truly respected his opinion. Most Oilers media are water heads, but Bruce had some great insights. This hit pretty hard when I read this.
RIP Bruce.

As much as we criticize these guys, writing takes a tremendous about of vulnerability, knowledge, and - most of all - passion. And this doesn't even touch on their life outside of hockey...
Condolences to his fans, friends, and family.

Awful to see a man’s son have to announce his dad’s death on twitter. Condolences to the Oilers family.

He was a good writer for the Oilers. Going to miss reading his writeups.

Im shocked.
I just listened to Staples and his pod from last night. It was only 11 minutes long, much shorter than normal and David mentioned that Bruce took ill during the game and wouldn’t join him. David was very subdued during the pod, almost hard to hear at time. It all makes “sense” now. I know their pod wasn’t for everyone, but I enjoyed its quirkiness and detail to important things that often were glossed over by other media.
Sincere condolences to his family and friends and to David , as his business partner and friend. Bruce will be tending goal with the greats upstairs tonight. Have a good game, Bruce. :|
