A conversation with Mira Laurence

from Shapiro's Daily Conversations Hosted by Ari Shapiro

My conversation with host and sportscaster Mira Laurence, whose work at Sportsnet 650 Vancouver and with the Canucks of the NHL has made her into a household name across Western Canada. We talked about how she deals with the daily grind of television and radio duties, her candid thoughts on the astonishing Canucks, on the importance of giving the fans a solid effort (night in and night out), why teams that have nothing to lose are usually the most underestimated, Eugene Melnyk's follies, the Vegas Golden Knights and their indomitable will, on dealing with the massive adversity of mounting injuries, and why hockey is the purest form of escapism. Be sure to follow Mira (@laurence_mira) on social media and listen to her show on Sportsnet Tonight (weeknights/7-11pm; @Sportsnet650) along with enjoying her brilliant rinkside reporting with the big club.
