I guess I'd like to see an LA = Pitts final, after that I really don't care.

Can't cheer for CHI for obvious reasons.

If LA wins, it's another shot at Calgary for choosing the wrong Sutter. Dutter takes the Flames to G7 of the SCF and doesn't coach in the city again - next time he steps behind the bench his team wins the Stanley Cup. If they beat CHI, that's 3 years in a row that Dutter's made it to the Stanley Cup Final as a coach.

If BOS beats PITS, Calgary's devastated again as their golden boy Iginla couldn't do it on a stacked team.
You're a pretty poor student of history aren't you?

Sutter coached the Flames from 2002-2006.

Finals in 2004 with Calgary. Lockout. Won the NW Division and were then eliminated in the 1st round of the playoffs in 2006.

Sutter then stepped down because he wanted to be the GM only and found it too difficult to juggle being both head coach and GM.

Why the fuck would any Canucks fan be cheering for Iginla?

I hope that dumb bag of shit never wins anything.

Thank you rummy, and here's hoping he has an encounter with Marchant.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

I'd rather the pens be at least in the finals, than that fucktard Marchand/Bruins getting another chance at the Cup.

Marchand on facing Pens: "We're in over our heads... I think those guys will battle a lot harder than Vancouver did in the Finals.”
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

The '13 Florida Panthers would battle harder then Vancouver did in the Final.

So A Canuck Fan can't cheer for Iginla, which leaves BOS, CHI and LA

Can't cheer for CHI
Can't cheer for BOS

LA is the logical choice. Let's face it, nobody was going to beat them last year, no logical Canuck fan can be pissed off them.

BOS beats PIT and Calgary fans are a mess

LA beats CHI and Vancouver Fans are happy CHI is out again

LA beats BOS and Calgary fans are left wondering "what if..."

For me, the only annoying part about LA kicking ass again is having to listen to all the bullshit from my extended family in Socal. I specifically asked all of them about Kings games prices and TV packages a couple Christmases ago (was planning on checking out a game) and they all looked at me as if I was retarded.

"Oh, you don't watch the Kings?" I inquired.

"Nobody watches the Kings," they scoffed in unison. "Hockey sucks".

I swear to fucking Christ, each and every one of these bumblecunts is now posting FB shit about how awesome the Kings are and how much they love watching hockey, AD NAUSEUM. They don't know what icing is yet, but they're pretty confident they can break down the game plan for their next opponent.

For them, ice hockey is some novel idea invented 18 months ago to talk about when the NFL and MLB aren't on TV. They are probably the shittiest fan base for a pro team I've ever seen and yet they get to watch something we'd all give our pinky finger for and they don't even appreciate it.

So I pretty much hate all the teams left, but honestly I'd rather see the Bruins win it again than listen to my fucktard family members talk about winning the "Stanley trophy" two years in a goddamned row.

I fell in love with the Bruins when they eliminated the Leaves.

Plus they're exactly the kind of team I've been pushing for the Canucks to build for years.

"Oh no Strangelove, the game has changed, they're gonna call everything in the playoffs now!"

LOFL, you can all sniff Donny's bum dust. :evil:

Anyway, go Bruins go, and trade Edler because he's Swedish.

That's all for today boys....

Do you really think the league would let the Canucks play like the Bruins?

We tried to play clean physical hockey against the Sharks and wound up on the shit end of the worst PP differential in NHL history.

It doesn't matter how we play, we seem to never get more PPs than our opponent in any series. Especially when the score is close.

Call it whining, call it whatever the fuck you want. You'd have to be fucking stupid to not see that the playing field is totally tipped against certain teams and it has nothing to do with their "reputation" or the players on their roster.

Get rid of the greedy jew who overexpanded his cash-strapped league and sees dollar signs when big market teams make the playoffs. Until then there's no fucking point in even considering becoming the big bad Bruins of the West.
