haters keep on hatin'


Earlier Sunday, Hockey Night in Canada released the results of its players poll. One of the questions asked players to name the NHL's most overrated team. The Canucks were the winner, with 24 per cent of the players who responded naming the Canucks.

Maybe they were all Boston Bruins. Or Chicago Blackhawks.

[Tim Budong]

Those polls take a small sample of players anyways
aint nothing to be concerned with

[UFO]

“If everyone wants to bring out these polls, then put your name on it,” defenceman Kevin Bieska said after the win over the Oilers. “Don’t be anonymous, don’t be a coward. If you have something to say, then say it publicly. Everyone in the league has an opportunity to voice their opinion with a microphone. Just say it, don’t hide behind an anonymous Sports Illustrated poll. It’s cowardly.”

From last week: Daniel then proceeded to rant about his dislike for anonymous polls. “I’ve never been a big fan of them,” he told the Vancouver media. “We had one of them from CBC, too, and I think everyone threw it in the garbage. I think that’s the way to do it. If you’re going to say something, at least stand for it and show your face. I’ve been asked to participate in anonymous polls but I would never do it. You can have your opinions but, at least, stand for them."

How can those comments above not stand for class and integrity? I also think a lot of this hoopla is largely media driven. Local media likes to create controversy, it sells and makes things interesting. When the on-ice product is good and free of controversy, its not overly intersting to write about. Us against the world makes things so much more interesting. I wonder if Detroit ever got hated on as much.

+1. The Sedins are a class act. Bieksa's comments make sense. Big props to Bieksa for calling out the clowns who voted in that poll. :thumbsup:

I wonder who are those cowards that voted on the anonymous poll. Bruins players?

It would be poetic justice to see the Sedins and all their team mates celebrate in June with a championship and shut up those cowards once and for all.

Go Canucks go!!!!

[highfive]

^ I think so too. Vancouver is such a crazy hockey market, media has to create controversies to get attention.

I bet they would go to another team and ask about Canucks being overrated and quote Bieksa saying "don't be a coward, if you have something say, then say it pubicly".

Ppl would then think Bieksa is cocky and arrogant and hate the Canucks more.

It was almost like they made AV's comment of Kesler such a big deal saying Kesler should use his wingers more often when AV was purely answer what Kesler can do to improve.

[RRxtar]

The Hockey Night In Canada poll was probably conducted among the teams that played on HNIC. Calgary, LA, Toronto, and Vancouver. no surprize that basically 1/4th of the votes were the canucks.

And everyone always hates on the team thats doing well.


And that Vancouver Sun article is false. That SI poll said Phil Kessel was the easiest to intimidate by 15%. The Sedins TOGETHER combined for 8%. but on their own they received 1% and 3%

Sports Illustrated’s poll of NHLers finds Phil Kessel to be the easiest star to intimidate in the League | Backhand Shelf | Blogs | theScore.com (http://blogs.thescore.com/nhl/2012/02/14/sports-illustrateds-poll-of-nhlers-finds-phil-kessel-to-be-the-easiest-star-to-intimidate-in-the-league/)


These polls are garbage and are for no reason other than for the media to stir a quick story. Hank hasnt missed a game in like 7 years and plays thru all sorts of injuries and has won art ross and hart trophies along the way. And this is with a puck control, cycling down low against the other teams checking line and shut down D pairing. Ya, hes scared to play. And Kessel (as much as I hate him) is putting up huge numbers.

In their last 10 games, the Columbus Blue Jackets have a better record than the Bruins.

^Yeah, how can you vote for both Sedins at once? Lol.

I'm no Kessel fan either, but I give him props for putting up with the abuse he received last 2 years in the most demanding hockey market, even though last season was a career best year for him, and shutting critics up this year.

I say meh to these polls, much like how suck it Phaneuf was ranked most over-rated player. They are mildly mildly entertaining at the best of times but its just something for media to jump all over. The players and teams have more important things to focus on.

[MG1]

How can an overrated team make it to the Stanley Cup Finals?

Overrated means you are touted as being great, but aren't.

[Noir]

Just like Henrik saying that those who participate in those polls speak more about themselves than those who are actually being polled, IMO same goes for people who pay attention to these kinds of polls.

Hate us or not, roughly 85% of the NHL's fanbase and their respective teams would love to be where the Canucks are now; and until we stop becoming one of the upper echelon teams of the league, no amount of public hate, media polls, etc is going to change that no matter how much everyone else pretends to say otherwise.

[DanHibiki]

Nothing's changed boys.

We were alone and hated by everyone last year when we won the presidents trophy. We were alone and hated by everyone including Canada when we made it to the Stanley Cup.

We will always be alone.

Let the haters keep on hatin' while we watch our W's pile up.

[xeryusx]

Its as simple as this:
Being on top is coupled with haters. If you're on top, the way you know it is when you start hearing the haters. I thank them, just as I'm sure the team is thanking them, because now all eyes are on Van as a city and as a motherfucking team that is just stacking up W's. So let them take polls/poles up the ass.. I could care less because Canucks are always #1.

Ya we were cheering for the Flames and Oilers back then but that was different. They were big time underdogs who weren't even supposed to make it into the playoffs.

Yeah, that guy was money. I agree one of his best asset was his speed but he can also handle the puck or shoot at that pace which is very rare.

I'm really happy with the way things have gone. We're a Stanley Cup-contending team, we're feeling good about our game, it's fun to win and play with two of the best players in the world. It couldn't be any better."

watched the highlights of yesterday's game. seemed like the canucks were out of sync, lots of defensive blips. thursday should be a great game though!

det resigns bertuzzi for 2years, 2.2? per year.
car resigns ruutu for 4years at aav of 4.75

[pastarocket]

-hoping that Bitz can start playing again real soon. His size will definitely be needed for the playoffs. Byron has the skill to play with the Sedins and can be an effective fourth line player.

He's had four surgeries for hip tears, sports hernia, and groin. Yikes!

Bitz's injury could raise trade-deadline questions (http://www.theprovince.com/sports/Bitz+injury+could+raise+trade+deadline+questions/6190059/story.html)

Canucks' situation at the trade deadline might get more complicated. :fuuuuu:

Bertuzzi is about the only thing i miss about those days

towards the end of Naslund's captaincy was a low point for this era of the Nucks, I used to be the biggest Naslund fan but when he missed the puck on that shootout [i still think the only player to have ever done so] i knew we were done.

As far as captains go, Hank > Naslund imo

http://www.thestar.com/sports/leafs/article/1135271--chinook-chucker-at-leafs-canucks-game-did-it-for-dead-son

VANCOUVER—When Princess Diana died in 1997, Elton John rewrote the lyrics to Candle in the Wind in a musical tribute. When Garrett Paquette passed away, his friends and family arranged a different sort of tribute — chucking a large salmon onto the ice during an NHL game.

Paquette, a Leafs fan, had planned to toss a salmon onto the ice during the much-anticipated matchup between the Vancouver Canucks and the Toronto Maple Leafs before he died in an ATV accident in November.

Roger Paquette, Garrett’s father, planned the trip and stunt in memory of his son.

“Roger brought three fish with him. He had these wild ideas in his head and was committed to doing it and Garrett was the same way,” said Joey Smith, one of three friends who volunteered to strap a five-pound salmon to their stomach and smuggle it into Rogers Arena.

“My only thought (when going through security) was that I hope I don’t get patted down,” he said. “I was just going to say I was hungry if I got caught with it.”

Some wondered how fans in neighbouring seats couldn’t smell anything but the group attributed the success to a combination of perfume and vacuum wrap, according to Paquette’s father.

“We were prepared,” he told the Nanaimo Daily News. “The fish even had a special perfume bath beforehand.”

With four minutes left in the third period, a five-pound salmon was tossed from the lower bowl onto the ice during a stoppage in play.

Smith was injured in the same ATV accident in which Paquette died and was unable to throw the fish himself.

He said he hopes the tribute will evolve into a salmon-tossing tradition during home games.

“I think (Garrett) is incredibly proud. Wherever he is, he’s looking down on us smiling,” said Smith. “It’s these little things like this that help us remember him better, a tribute to him and the amazing guy that he was.”

He said he and his friends were able to blend in with the crowd and weren’t caught.

According to the Nanaimo Daily News, Paquette had been inspired by his father who also threw a fish onto the ice last season after seeing the tradition in Detroit where they throw an octopus.

Paquette’s father hoped the team would “get inspired” by a B.C. salmon, the symbol of strength and speed. He kept the fish underneath his jersey for nearly three periods before throwing it. He was caught by security and escorted out.

[Vansterdam]

^ i know buddy who picked up the fish at the game lol

once you know the whole fish story though it seems like a awesome tradition we all should start


now it would be EPIC if someone threw a salmon @ the detroit home game :fullofwin:

[AzNightmare]

Boston vs St.Louis gonna be a good game tonight

Marchand with 2 goals tonight.

:heckno:

Marchand has 40 pts now this season.

[spoon.ek9]

if he weren't such a dirty fucking rat that might actually be respectable

[Hondaracer]

Burrows is what marchand strives to be

[woob]

Burrows is what marchand strives to be

IMO saying something like this just puts Burrows in a bad light.

[highfive]

Burrows should never be put in the same sentence with the following players:

Marchand
Cooke
Tootoo
Downie

These little fucks play the game thats borderline hurting ppl. They hurt ppl to intimidate them.

As pesky as Burrows is, he has never done anything that puts an opposing player in danger.

Anyone catch Burke calling out his goalies? Looks like the Leafs will be in the market for a goalie come trade deadline, rumors suggest that Burke might go after Evgeni Nabokov. It'll be interesting to see what the Leafs give up for a goalie that can at least give them a shot to get into the playoffs.

I would go for Nashville's backup (Lindback). He's at least fitting the "new" leafs seeing as he's a young up and comer. At 6'6, he is a monster of person and

Besides, with Rinne locked up for like 6 years, this kid has no chance of being for a starter.

There's no way Wings will finish ahead of us, given that our schedule is so much easier than their's.....We will face Nashville or St.Louis 2nd round, and I'm really not sure which one I would rather face.... :badpokerface:

[SumAznGuy]

Were they on skates too?

Renne's pads are still on so more than likely yes.
So I would assume the same thing for Gill since he is listed as being 6'7" while Renne is 6'5".
