To me, he gives fans a bad name. Now, I'll admit that I've only been watching seriously since 2005 and don't know the game inside out. I don't know the stats of every player to lay stick to ice but I'll be watching regular season games and playoff games and if we get knocked out early I'll pick another team to get behind.
Apparently that makes me a "traitor". Well, that and the fact that I think that Kippersoff is a goddamned good goalie who deserves a better franchise. | Your buddy is a true definition of a homer.

I don't mind bandwagoners... especially since my wife is one. LoL.
She pretty much never watches or follows the Canucks during the regular season, but becomes more and more interested the further they get in the playoffs.
Round 1: Still disinterested
Round 2: Slightly interested
Round 3: Go Canucks Go!
Round 4: OH MY GOD, WE'RE IN THE STANLEY CUP FINALS!!!

^my gf wasnt too interested in the regular season, but she is highly interested now.
however, this is her first season really watching hockey and she just learned the rules, so she can be classified as a new fan to those who care (i dont really).
i had to show her all the bure vids on youtube and linden, and explain all the 94 stuff to bring her up to pace. how bure had 31 points in the post season, how we almost lost in the first round and how mike richters name still puts a sour taste in my mouth. also how jeff brown fucked mcleans wife afterwards

At the end of the day, hardcore fans and bandwangoners will all be cheering and celebrating the cup win tonight together. There is no fan divide when a city comes together like this.

^exactly. if canucks win, bandwagoners will become "fans". In the coming season they'll probalby watch more and learn more about the game, which is what they're most criticized for.

i dun care about band-wagoners cuz like everyone says every fan most start somewhere & i started with my dad as he was a hawks fan (hes quite sad that i was never into the hawks) but i watch every hockey game as much as possible nucks are no nucks i dun care, i just love the sport
i dun play much now but i do grab my old stick & take a few shots out in front of my garage once in a while, so in the end am i really a nucks fan? i like to think im more of a hockey fan
i duno why but i like Schneider, he is one of the best 2nd goals in the league right now & i love like him
plus i popped in jersey city yesterday just to see if i can score some cheap chicago home stuff (ex:bulls stuff, hawks stuff, bears stuff, cubs/white sox stuff) & i saw a shit load of ppl buying nucks jersey

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".
