^I dunno, I think it's cool because more people put the flags on their cars during the playoffs. It looks good when I see a whole string of cars sporting them.

I could never put a flag on my vehicle cause to me is seems more of a bandwagon move to look cool during the playoffs

Meh, I don't mind if it is a bandwagon move for some people during the playoffs. The more people cheering for the Canucks, the better. More power to them!

If Montreal was able to upset the Caps and Pens two years ago. The Caps this year can sure try to upset the Bruins. They choked a few times in the past, but this year they are the hungrier team.

And let's face it, the Caps have all the tools to win; it's just a matter of the tools showing up to play, they showed up today vs. the Rangers so don't be too surprised if they show up like this vs. Boston either; only time will tell.

Absolutely. They reduced King Henrik to nothing within the first few of the 1st.

Thomas is more than susceptible for that kind of game.

Just go on LA's board/forum. You'll immediately notice how their fans have zero faith in this team. ie. blowing leads/not scoring

Jon Quick is a good goaltender, but he can't score and this is what this team lacks. Lots of you say, be careful, their sleepy stars MAY wake up and starting lighting it up, but that's a lot of maybes and what ifs.

Yeah, they were talking about it on 1040 last night. If they didn't do it that way, there would've been a game where there would've only been a 2hr turnaround after a basketball game and back to back games in LA then Van.

[civicyvr]

Awesome game yesterday!! B2B PT winner and the more importantly home ice advantage!

Would have preferred SJ since games against LA has been gritty and hard fought against them recently. Quick can throw a monkey wrench in the mix especially if the party boys decide to show up.

I think that is actually more complete overreaction over the last 2 SJ games more than anything, I recall the stat popping up during the game, the Kings were 85-0-5 or something like that when leading after 2 periods, and then sharks came back twice in the 3rd so its fresh in their minds. The scoring thing if I recall since they got jeff carter they have been in the middle of the pack so I dunno if you can still call it a problem.

Top NHL Playoff Contenders

Hockey's second season, the Stanley Cup playoffs, is upon us, and Onion Sports breaks down the top contenders.

New York Rangers: Should be in for a dramatic playoffs, both because their game is built around goaltending and because they'll be playing home games at the Metropolitan Opera House

Vancouver Canucks: Their fans will brutally murder the children they have taken hostage if any team beats the Canucks, so it looks like smooth sailing for Vancouver

Boston Bruins: Last year's champs may go down early, since they know winning the Stanley Cup isn't as great as everyone thinks

St. Louis Blues: Second in the West with 107 points, though they came in 107 overtime losses

Florida Panthers: A strong third seed, tenacious on the forecheck, and dangerous in transition, but we're sorry, there just shouldn't be a damn hockey team in Florida

Los Angeles Kings: Goalie Jonathan Quick leads the NHL in shutouts, which is great for him, but very inconsiderate to fans of the other teams.

Pittsburgh Penguins: A sure Cup contender, barring the inconceivable possibility that someone figures out some way to keep the invincible Sidney Crosby down

Detroit Red Wings: Has great home-ice advantage thanks to the strong support they receive from their fan base and the begrudging support they receive from those dating their cute fan base

[LSF22]

So... looks like the haters are at it again....


VANCOUVER—How is it that the Canadian team with the best chance at the Stanley Cup is one of the most hated teams in hockey? Shouldn’t we love these guys?

Mention the Vancouver Canucks in Vancouver and the love overflows. Mention the same team anywhere else in the league and the venom is palpable.

Non-Canucks fans point to the team’s reputation for whining — GM Mike Gillis was fined during last season’s playoffs for complaining about the officiating — the diving abilities of the Sedin twins, the hair-pulling and finger-biting tactics of forward Alex Burrows.

“They are the most arrogant team I played against and the most hated team I’ve ever played against,” former Boston Bruins forward Mark Recchi told an American radio station last year.

Why exactly are the Canucks so despised? For a second year in a row, the team captured the President’s Trophy as the NHL’s top team and odds are the Canucks will have another extended run in the playoffs with their second chance in as many years of ending up in the finals. The Canucks will begin that quest Wednesday night in their playoff opener against the Los Angeles Kings.

Cambridge, Ont., resident Jim Chaplin says one reason the Canucks are so despised is because they have an inflated opinion of themselves.

“This is not a team that goes out and plays tough and backs up their talk. They hide behind officials and they don’t play an honourable, tough brand of hockey,” says Chaplin, who lived in Vancouver in his early 20s and is a lifelong Chicago Blackhawks fan. “Hockey fans love a good work ethic, players who hit and backcheck. Fans like fighters, not chirpers.”

Chaplin thinks the Canucks’ reputation for being a dirty team reaches back years, starting with the 2004 Todd Bertuzzi hit on Steve Moore of the Colorado Avalanche.

Kelly Kirch, program director for Sportsnet 960 The Fan in Calgary, says whenever the Canucks are raised as a topic on radio call-in shows, the response from callers is disdain.

“What people don’t like the most about the team, I think, are the Canuck fans. The Canucks fans lose all sense of judgment; they think everyone else is against them and they aren’t graceful when they lose,” says Kirch. “There is an arrogance with the Canucks and while people can respect that they’re a very good team, no one likes them very much.”

That’s why Kirch believes so many fans of other teams like seeing the Canucks lose.

Canucks fan Sean Zandberg, one of the writers for the Canucks blog Nucks Misconduct, cites simple jealousy as the reason his team is so hated.

“The Canucks have been so successful that everything they do is scrutinized,” he says. “No one hates a loser but they really hate the prom king.”

Vancouver Canucks could be NHL (http://www.thestar.com/sports/hockey/article/1158299--vancouver-canucks-could-be-nhl-s-most-despised-team)

[SumAznGuy]

Hawaii. I don't care if I have to pay for wifi to catch the game.

Flip, which island are you flying to? When I went to Honolulu last year, West Jet and Bell has an agreement so you get bell sat tv. but part way some of the channels cut out while we were over international waters.

[Gh0stRider]

Auxiliary Riot Squad (http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/sec/2947413546.html)

Are you interested in working for a private security firm during the playoffs? Do you feel like your presence could have made a positive difference during last year's riot?

No previous security experience is necessary, but applicants must be willing to carry a billy club and administer pepper spray. Experience in sports like hockey, and MMA would be a plus. Football and baseball experience would probably be a negative.

lol

[Ronin]

I could give a fuck if the Canucks are the most hated team in the league. In fact, I love it. They're ours. We won't share. Fuck off.

Especially the rest of Canada. We don't want to be your team. If you want to come along for the ride, there's plenty of room on the bandwagon. But if not, it's because they don't deserve the Canucks, not because they aren't welcome.

Perhaps this cocky attitude is exactly what others pushes people to dislike the fans/team?

I don't see how hard it is to just keep classy about it and ignore the chirping. See the article, don't have to respond to it. Haters gonna hate.

Btw, lol at "we won't share" + "come along for the ride".

By that chart, does that mean 2nd round would be either STL or SJS?
Actually, I am referencing to this chart: http://www.nhl.com/ice/stanleycup.htm

I thought it was #1 vs. #4, which would be either DET or NAS

[fliptuner]

Flip, which island are you flying to? When I went to Honolulu last year, West Jet and Bell has an agreement so you get bell sat tv. but part way some of the channels cut out while we were over international waters.

Honolu first. Did the same trip last year and yeah, half way through it cut out. Hope they have it on sat and if they offer wifi, even better. If they do have it on sat, i'll probably get to watch half the game.

[Ronin]

I don't see what's so hard to understand. I've had fans of vanquished teams around Vancouver hang and cheer for the Canucks with my friends and that's cool. If they don't want to, well, then it's their loss...not ours.

I don't respond. I thought it was fine to talk about it here amongst other Canucks fans. You don't see me on CDC or Yahoo...although sometimes it gets pretty bad around here too. :lol

But if other fans hate the Canucks or their fans...good.

[TRDood]

For that member who is flying from YVR to HNL, Air Canada would not have live TV available. They do however announce the score if requested. I flew to HK in April 2011 when the Canucks played Game 5 against Chicago. The pilot announced the score and game final score over the PA.

Westjet have satellite TV available. However, flying over the Pacific Ocean (about 1.5 hours west), none of the channels will work. The TVs during my flight to Honolulu didn't work at all in August 2011.

Westjet flying east to Toronto or South to California would have most channels working.
I watched NBA openers on Christmas Day 2011 when flying to Vegas.

The Canucks [the #1 seed] play the LOWEST seed in the second round. Depends if there's any upsets, so virtually, the Canucks could play:

- #7 San Jose
- #6 Chicago
- #5 Detroit

Or even #4 Nashville if all 4 top seeds make it to the second round.

[TheKingdom2000]

Honestly, I don't know many people who despise the Canucks. And i'm currently studying out east.

The media and everyone always says things like, everyone hates the Canucks etc... But, I have never really seen that.

The only thing i've noticed is a lot of people chirping me about the Canucks and Vancouver. But, it isn't like they hate the Canucks they just chirp because that's what sports fans do. I mean, I give it to the flames/leafs fans over here just as much.

The only consensus overe here is that the sedins are little girls, burrows is a cheap ass who just chirps and doesn't fight, and luongo is a head case. Other than that, I don't really hear much else. Don't we say the exact same things about other players on other teams?

My first impression of this would be... any NHL team would love to be #6.

1. #6 plays #3 which is not really "#3"
2. In round 2, if #6 advances, it would still have a chance to avoid playing #1 seed.

[MG1]

VANCOUVER—How is it that the Canadian team with the best chance at the Stanley Cup is one of the most hated teams in hockey? Shouldn’t we love these guys?

Mention the Vancouver Canucks in Vancouver and the love overflows. Mention the same team anywhere else in the league and the venom is palpable.

Non-Canucks fans point to the team’s reputation for whining — GM Mike Gillis was fined during last season’s playoffs for complaining about the officiating — the diving abilities of the Sedin twins, the hair-pulling and finger-biting tactics of forward Alex Burrows.

“They are the most arrogant team I played against and the most hated team I’ve ever played against,” former Boston Bruins forward Mark Recchi told an American radio station last year.

Why exactly are the Canucks so despised? For a second year in a row, the team captured the President’s Trophy as the NHL’s top team and odds are the Canucks will have another extended run in the playoffs with their second chance in as many years of ending up in the finals. The Canucks will begin that quest Wednesday night in their playoff opener against the Los Angeles Kings.

Cambridge, Ont., resident Jim Chaplin says one reason the Canucks are so despised is because they have an inflated opinion of themselves.

“This is not a team that goes out and plays tough and backs up their talk. They hide behind officials and they don’t play an honourable, tough brand of hockey,” says Chaplin, who lived in Vancouver in his early 20s and is a lifelong Chicago Blackhawks fan. “Hockey fans love a good work ethic, players who hit and backcheck. Fans like fighters, not chirpers.”

Chaplin thinks the Canucks’ reputation for being a dirty team reaches back years, starting with the 2004 Todd Bertuzzi hit on Steve Moore of the Colorado Avalanche.

Kelly Kirch, program director for Sportsnet 960 The Fan in Calgary, says whenever the Canucks are raised as a topic on radio call-in shows, the response from callers is disdain.

“What people don’t like the most about the team, I think, are the Canuck fans. The Canucks fans lose all sense of judgment; they think everyone else is against them and they aren’t graceful when they lose,” says Kirch. “There is an arrogance with the Canucks and while people can respect that they’re a very good team, no one likes them very much.”

That’s why Kirch believes so many fans of other teams like seeing the Canucks lose.

Canucks fan Sean Zandberg, one of the writers for the Canucks blog Nucks Misconduct, cites simple jealousy as the reason his team is so hated.

“The Canucks have been so successful that everything they do is scrutinized,” he says. “No one hates a loser but they really hate the prom king.”I guess the media doesn't get it......... it's getting old. People, for the most part, are aware of media sensationalism. Try something new, like reporting on facts or something.

Mark Recchi... LOL, like anyone respects anything he has to say. Former Boston Bruins player.... right. Like they are the most loved team in the NHL. Shit smells no matter which asshole it came from.


Sidney Crosby said it best, "What happens on the ice is what matters."

Anyway, can't wait for the puck to drop Wednesday night.

I completely agree. Most of the friends I have have made here in Toronto cheered for the Canucks last year and said they will cheer for them this year.

I really think it is the MEDIA who likes to create these "Canada's most hated team" articles based on a very vocal minority who like to troll around the internet.

Hell, I walked into a Starbucks yesterday wearing a Canucks t-shirt and I got my bill wiped clean cause the staff were Canucks fans (and they were tired of cheering for the Leafs).

I know we are all in playoff mode, but I found this pretty interesting. Luongo is 16th overall all time in shutouts during the regular season. Most of any current goalie with 60 (Nabakov has 52 i think).

He manages to get 16 more in the span of his career, he will crack the top 10.

Here`s more

As you already stated, he is just the 16th goalie in the history of the NHL to have reached 60 shutouts.

He joins a list that includes names like Brodeur, Sawchuk, Hasek, Belfour, Roy, Esposito, and Jacques Plante.

Luongo has played 727 games so far...Patrick Roy played 1029 and had 66 career shutouts. Luongo just needs 7 more to catch him on the all time list.

If Luongo can keep averaging 4 shutouts a year for the next 3 seasons...he will be right behind Tony Esposito who had 76 career shutouts and be top ten all time.

Luongo is already tied for 2nd all time with Bernie Parent for wins in a season (Brodeur had 1 more).

As well, Luongo surpasses Hall of Famer Gump Worsley for all time wins in the NHL and is 17th in history. He'll need another 17 wins to pass Rogie Vachon.

2 more 30 win seasons and Luongo will surpass Dominic Hasek and a slew of others, and move in to the top ten behind Chris Osgood and his idol Grant Fuhr. There's a strong statistical chance that Luongo becomes just the 11th goaltender in NHL history to have 400 wins.

^This has already been discussed; let's move on...

[GrapeDrink]

^ yeap, shutouts now are way easier to obtain than before, I think everyone on this thread thinks of niemi as an avg goalie at best right, well he has 19 shutouts in the last 3 seasons over 167 starts lol, same with wins, back then they actually had ties, now its we will have a damn skills competition if need be but someone going home a winner.

Surrey is going full-steam ahead with large-scale public celebrations for this year's Stanley Cup playoffs. Mayor Dianne Watts says the city will bring back the large-screen viewing sites that were seen last year, at Central City Plaza and other sites. As for any planning changes in connection to what happened on the streets of downtown vancouver?

"No, we have put measures in place and we continue to have the same operational protocol... so nothing has changed in that regard."

Watts adds costs to the city are largely minimal.

[fliptuner]

21..wtf?

I guess they won't take Higg off the 3rd since they're producing. I wonder how Bitz would look on the 2nd line.

[spoon.ek9]

i guess they'll give raymond a chance... i hope there's a short leash for him though should he not produce anything useful.

[JD¹³]

So fucking jacked for the playoffs this year. Watching the video RB posted just got me so cranked, especially watching that bitch Lucic punch Burrows in the back of the head :swear:

[spideyv2]

Raymond is a good back checker, and he's also a solid PK'er..but FFS, it's brutal watching him play in a top 6 role

[Not really racist!]

Makes some sense kinda..

Checking line of Hig, Pahlsson, Hansen has been freaking amazing the past couple games

Lapp has been amazing offensively and defensively past couple games too but is back where he usually is on the 4th line..

I'd really only tweak the 2nd and 4th line if need be (scratching raymond) and using Weise for more grit on the 4th and moving one of them up

Give MayRay a chance guys, hopefully he can use his speed and draw us a couple PP to get it going, playoffs everybodys on a new clean slate

btw i pray to god MAG doesn't play a single game in the playoffs unless *knock on wood* our curse hits again

then again im not AV so my opinion = :pokerface:

He got his chance on the 1st line and didn't rise to the occassion. So my expectations of him are very low. If he proves all the doubters wrong, it'd be awesome but he's had plenty of opportuniy and not impressed. Bitz and Lappy on the other hand, they upped their game when given the chance and that's what I want to see.

[Gh0stRider]

gonna be there for all round 1 games...aww yeaaa

[Not really racist!]

^^ I wholeheartedly agree, as would almost any Canuck fan watching the past playoffs and this whole season, but I honestly believe the playoffs are a different dimension. Raymond will be fine granted he makes good decisions and doesn't try anything fancy and then slip / lose the puck and be caught on an odd man rush) Hopefully his injury in the SCF will give him the boost and drive he needs to get his shit together because I'm sure he wants to be in the SCF again and be able to play(aside from the injury)

I'm honestly still waiting for him to blast down the right wing, cut towards the net, shield the puck with his body past his man and then roofing / 5 holing the puck; I'd give him 2 - 3 games to prove himself dependent on the series in terms of W/L

It's more like, do a lap around the net, miss an opportunity to make a great pass, skate to the perimeter, and either slip/fall, or shoot the puck towards the goalies crest.

No. If the season ticket holder tries to scam you, he can do it at anytime before game starts, or before you enter the arena.

I wouldn't worry about season ticket holders who are willing to show you his Canucks ID that matches his DL.

[threezero]

^ thanks. My ticket has no date on it only round 1 home game 1 and the row plus seats thats normal for season tickets right?

[fliptuner]

Yes, because the tickets are printed before the game times are announced.

[bballguy]

But you do realize that he CAN scam you, right? As far as I know, he can easily just report his tickets as being lost or stolen and be sent another pair or w/e...So you are basically just putting your trust into this guy; I honestly wouldn't be worried about it if I were you, but just letting you know that it's possible.

Season ticket holders through CL usually have lower prices and much better seats. I have purchased more than 20 games from season ticket holders and they are all legit.

The only time I don't use CL and only use Ticketmaster/3rd party websites is for roadtrip tickets like LA or Anaheim.

Round 1 Predictions: Kings-Canucks Video - NHL VideoCenter (http://video.nhl.com/videocenter/console?catid=53&id=171129)

Sedin practices; Game 1 status a 'medical decision' - Canucks vs Kings - 2012 Stanley Cup Conference Quarterfinals (http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=626937&navid=DL|NHL|home)

VANCOUVER -- Daniel Sedin felt good enough to practice with the Canucks on Monday for the first time since missing nine games with a concussion, but not to talk to the media.

According to Henrik Sedin, however, his twin brother is "100 percent."

Daniel, who won the Art Ross Trophy as the NHL's leading scorer last season, took his usual spot on the top line alongside Henrik and Alexandre Burrows, and worked on the power play. It was his first time on the ice with teammates since being concussed by an elbow from Chicago defenseman Duncan Keith on March 21, and Daniel lasted until the very end, staying through a lengthy conditioning skate at the conclusion, a positive sign he could be ready for Game 1 of the playoffs, Wednesday against Los Angeles.

"That's not going to be my decision, that's going to be a medical decision," coach Alain Vigneault said, confirming Daniel had skated on his own prior to Monday -- but refusing to say how many times. "He looked good for first practice with teammates in a little while."

Henrik was also careful to defer comments about the possibility of Daniel playing in Game 1, but used "100 percent" when asked about the Kings targeting his brother.

"I don't think it's going to be any different than before, guys are going to hit him and me," Henrik said. "That's the thing with a concussion, it doesn't have to be a hit to the head, but he's 100 percent now, so they say it's no different for him than for me taking a hit."

Sedin, who still leads the team with 30 goals and is second with 67 points despite missing the final nine games, skated on his own with a skills coach before practice and stayed out with the main group when they took to the ice. He wasn't wearing a white helmet the way defenseman Keith Ballard, who has been out since early February with a concussion, did before he was cleared for full contact in practice last week, another good sign.

"If he wouldn't have been out there today he would have been a real long shot to play on Wednesday, so that's a good sign," Henrik said. "He's one of the best forwards in the League, and it's always nice to have those guys in the lineup. We've been missing him."

Keith was suspended five games for the hit, but the Canucks won eight of their last nine games without Daniel to secure a second straight Presidents' Trophy.

"Fortunately we did well when he was not playing, but adding a player like that will make us better," said Ballard, who is also "getting close" but doesn't expect to play Game 1.

As for Daniel, Ballard liked what he saw in practice, including a few bumps in front of the net.

"I didn't look that good on day one," Ballard said. "Ideally symptoms are gone and you're feeling normal and for everyone it's just getting feel back and skating back and I don't think that should take Danny too long, he's a very skilled hockey player. I don't think there should be any concern there."

For Henrik, the best part is seeing his brother's personality come back.

"The first couple of days, you could tell just calling him something was wrong," Henrik said. "He's a guy that is always happy. When he talks to our parents back home, he says it's sunny every day, so he's that kind of guy that never sees anything bad in anything. That was tough for me to talk to him and tell that something was off."

This is true. I've sold my games 1 and 2 to people off craigslist, and game 5 was sold via stubhub. If I really wanted to be a prick I could call my account rep and void games 1 and 2. With stubhub if for any reason the tickets are cancelled or declined, I'm on the hook because stubhub has my credit card number. The buyer is then compensated with equal value tickets.

As someone on the other side of the transaction, here is what I do for those buying playoff tickets from me:

-Show them my drivers license, match it with my Canucks ID card.
-Show my email notification from the Canucks stating that $X amount will be taken out on my visa for playoff round X.
-Show that the visa transaction has been taken out on my visa
-Rip playoff tickets out of the season ticket holder booklets, in front of them.

If someone else wants more proof then that, I tell them to take a hike because if he doesn't buy them, someone else will. Most sellers won't do any of what I've listed above, I only do this for playoffs since the cost goes up significantly and I know most buyers are nervous. Personally, I don't want any of my buyers wanting to worry about anything and I'll do what I can to put them at ease. I still have my regular buyers that call me for the regular season so there's a trust relationship built there.

But even with all of the proof I can show the buyer, it takes me 1 phone call to say "can you cancel my games 1 and 2 tickets? Thanks". If you're going to buy tickets, at least get the sellers DL# so you have something to follow up with.

I usually just ask if I could pick up the tickets from their home or workplace, then ask for their DL to verify their address or business card/company ID, that way if something goes wrong I know where to find them. I highly doubt someone would break into someone's house or pretend to work somewhere just to sell fake hockey tickets, but I guess anything is possible.

[TRDood]

It's the trust.

I bought SCF Game 1 last year for $1200 for the pair. I googled the seller and the company he owns. Didn't think he will screw me for $1200 when I can always go back to his business for a "refund".

The same seats would have costed me $2000-$2500 for the pair off ticketexchange on ticketmaster, or stubhub.

This is true. I've sold my games 1 and 2 to people off craigslist, and game 5 was sold via stubhub. If I really wanted to be a prick I could call my account rep and void games 1 and 2. With stubhub if for any reason the tickets are cancelled or declined, I'm on the hook because stubhub has my credit card number. The buyer is then compensated with equal value tickets.
