“The Most Hated Team in Hockey” Circle the wagons.

[clem]

Kesler & Co don't have a monopoly on embellishment. They're in the spotlight because the team is news worthy.

The hate has to be good for orca bay sports & entertainment’s revenue. Think about how professional wrestling mined this vein for years. It's the age old saga of good versus evil. It's the way to get suckers coming back time & again in the hopes of seeing you lose.

It's time for those worried about the hate & image to put their panties on & look at the real world.

Orca Bay sold the team years ago

Pardon me - 'canucks sports & entertainment' - since 2008.

A little harsh methinks as sports fanaticism is a pretty powerful emotion.

So..

All of "Most Hated" rhetoric really got going when Damien Cox tweeted.

- And now Luongo joins in the early playoff fakery. Same ol' Canucks. Divers and fakers. Why rest of country hates 'em.

- All year long VAN said head-snapping ways were past. In the 1st period of 1st playoff game, Kesler shows that crap is still part of VAN game

- And he retweets - Chris Manuel ‏ @cmanuel9
@DamoSpin I'm a proud Canadian hockey fan but the crap the Canucks pull makes me hate them #gokingsgo

Also, he's got a blog.

Based on the googling I did of Damien, he seems like a real hot head mob inciter.

From my perspective I would not claim otherwise.

Ryan needs to be concentrating on other things though, like finding his form and getting this team going.

We rely heavily on the guy.

He may even be our most important player other than whomever is tending net.

Flopping and bitching ain't productive right now.

The media laps up the hate angle because it sells. People may not like our team, but they know who we are.

My panties reference may have been an antagonistic indulgence (like embellishment).

Funny thought here: the most hated team might just have the most fans outside thier playing city.

Out of the 30 cities, what other team do you think has more fans attend games than the canucks?

Most hated most loved...

Agree that Kesler could benefit from more focus.

And Cory apologizes to the Oilers and their organization for his comments. Sheesh...

Seems uncharacteristic of someone from Massechusets (queue Cornuck ?).

Maybe Vancouver or the Canucks organization is getting to him.

& I thought someone from Chester New England might give us the inside scoop - corny as that might sound.

The world is a sad place indeed when a guy has to apologize for telling the truth.

Meh.... Damien Cox has been known to lick a lot of cock.
