I get that you're venting but if we were the BBB of the West we could at least kick the shit out of people while losing.

You of all people I would think appreciates that....

Kind of like slapping the quiet Asian kid in the head after Return of the Jedi ya know?

Well that won't happen during this year's playoffs unless Iggy retires right now.

Todd Marchant hung up his skates in 2011.....

I guess. Sort of a hollow victory though.

And it was a closed fist BTW.

No roll of quarters.

And yeah I'm kinda bitter.

Honestly for the first time considering a long sabbatical from the NHL.

If I didn't love the sport so much...

And have so much free time on winter nights...

And need an excuse to get drunk more often...

And need something to stare at on the pub wall when my date gets all uppity and starts talking...

Ah, who am I kidding. I'm hooked and so are all of you and the kike midget knows it. We are not the fans he's worried about pleasing.

So nothing changes.

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!"
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.
They don't let your Vancouver Canucks win your Stanley Cup because your Vancouver Canucks are whiny wimps.

Being whiny wimps sure doesn't seem to affect Chicago's wonderful relationship with the league and its minions.

No Rummy, you've gotta think some more good buddy.

I know this is hard for you, but you need to hear it....

Your Vancouver Canucks are by far the whiniest wimps in the history of hockey. :|

I think Chicago gets a way with it cause its Chicago. We don't because Vancouver could slide into the sea and nobody would notice...especially in New York where the league office is...

Most guys have a hard time accepting the fact their team is the whiniest group of wimps in the history of hockey.

Don't be one of them Rummy. :thumbs:

OK fine, we're whiny wimps, that's something I've been trying to knock into a midwestern mongoloid's head for some time now... It definitely hasn't helped our relationship with the, ahem, officials. :roll:

But do you really think that's the main reason we've gotten the shit end of the stick for so long? Remember game 7 against the Rangers? That team was tough as a motherfucker. Seriously, we had several players who would have fucked their own mothers to win that game!

I remember you saying the Canucks would never win a Stanley Cup... you must have some inkling of that to which I refer.

That was the closest your Vancouver Canucks ever got to your Stanley Cup.

That squad was almost tough enough.

Yours truly has consistently called for more toughness every off-season for the better part of two decades.

Yours truly is a fucking genius. :mex:
