Down Goes Brown: Should Canadian hockey fans be cheering for the Canucks?

 

[jstewismybastardson]

the "video essay" that Stephen Brunt did about the whole Canucks/Canadas team disconnect was pretty good for someone 3 hours out of touch


I really dont care if the rest of Canada isnt cheering for the Canucks

the notion of "Canadas team" is a media concoction and shouldnt be foisted on anyone

example ... TO media telling me that the Raptors are Canadas team ... or the Blue Jays are Canadas team or (before the Whitecaps MLS existence) Toronto FC are Canadas team

fuck that shit ... who cares that they are/were the only Canadian sports team in their respective leagues

•Admit it, it would be fun to watch Roberto Luongo win a Stanley Cup and still be roundly criticized for not doing it "clutchily" enough.

LOL

Sorry guys, the Leafs are Canada's team. And you all love them.

When the Oilers made the Cup run in 2006, Fan 960 radio in Calgary became the official sports radio station of the Carolina Hurricanes. I got a kick out of that.

That's how it should be rivalries are rivalries. You don't jump on a band wagon because of where a team plays.

If the Sabres get the boot do you think I'm rooting for the Rangers because they are from NY?......nope.

Its the NHL not the Canadian VS American hockey league

FUCK DALLAS!!

 

[Slimpikins]

Hahaha, this was my favo(u)rite:

If you can get on the Canucks' good side, they might let you help design the new logo they'll inevitably be coming out with in the next year or two.

Canada is still in this thing!? Shit, I didn't sleep long enough...:help:

I had a dream about the green men last night...

Friction from spandex burns pretty good, huh....

It's not like players from Canada haven't won a cup since 1993.

I'll be honest, I really don't know what to think about vancouver still, they can be so good but can shit themselves at the worst times, and have made their run so far far more interesting than it should have been, but then again the sharks patented that years ago so this series might just be the beginning of the apocalypse.

The Sharks did the same thing.

Kinda amazing to think that the two teams playing in the WCF both almost blew 3-0 series leads this year.

I get it now. They've been intentionally losing in the POs the last few years to increase the drama, right?

That's what I keep telling myself!
