Canucks president Trevor Linden's twitter feed gets hacked, spams everybody
Canucks president Trevor Linden was praised this week by Canucks ownership for "knowing what he doesn't know." One example of a thing the novice Canucks executive doesn't know? How to protect his Twitter feed from being embarrassingly hacked.
Linden's hacked feed began to spam Twitter users with recommendations of "cute chicks" that want "to chat with you" on Friday. It continues to put out spam tweet so of this writing.
The results were awkward. For example, the Canucks president made an offer to retired forward Jamal Mayers, but not that type of offer:
@jamalmayers Hey this cute chick on #KIK wants to chat with you ;) her username is omegafire1

Careful everyone it appears @trevor_linden twitter account has been hacked!!!

Linden's q-rating in the Vancouver market is so high, that fans took the time to respond politely:
@trevor_linden okay. I will Trevor. By the way I believe that you will turn the canucks around

One thing is for certain, Linden's digital Yente spam game is strong.
