Vancouver Canucks for the Cup

[eclipse1966]

Don't make me laugh, everyone know's the Canucks are nothing more than whiney little girls who cheap shot at every opportunity, but you go ahead and keep defending them. Burrows is a sissy, don't know any other way to say it, he proved that by biting Bergeron last year and his cowardly slash on Saturday. Thorton hit Burrows low on the leg with his stick so Burrows retaliates by slashing at his neck instead of manning up and challenging him to a fight? I wonder why?

Everyone in the NHL know's the Canucks are THE pre-eminet cheap shot artist in the league, but you go ahead and stay in denial and bitter after losing the cup to the better team last year. Talk about blinders.

I never payed any attention to the Canucks until last year and it didn't take long to see why so many people hated them (and most are Canadian) and that was before the SC finals. I can see nothing has changed from last year with the Canucks and the majority of their fans, they still think they were entitled to a SC championship simply by winning the Presidents Trophy, doesn't work that way i'm afraid.

I would have bitten Bergeron too and I am no sissy. Cant see why would Burrow's want to fulfill Bergeron's fetish of having another man suck on his finger! hahahaha
Anyway, this is all fun but for a team that is so hated there seems to be a lot of Canuck fans attending games across the continent these days. And as for cheap shots, maybe you are right they can dish it out from whistle to whistle but the Bruins wait until the cameras are off on commercial then begin their performance. It was well noted in the SC final last year and sounds like it is continuing.

Says you. Sissy's bite, no other way to paint it.

And how about Weise backing down from Thornton? He's got all kinds of excuses. What a pu$$y.

This qoute says it all: The players, coaches and management of the Canucks seem intent on painting a reality where the Bruins are a collection of thugs and the Canucks are a saintly group incapable of any wrongdoing. It's misinformation, to say the least, and too many fans and Vancouver media members are falling for it hook, line and sinker.

look at where you are getting your info from. NESN! Go on line to TSN.ca and read the blogs from anyone who wants to comment from coast to coast then let me know. Shanny just gave Marchand 5 games while at the same time Julian defended the play. What a joke! I do not portray Canucks are angels out there but look around and the Bruins managed to get their reputation all by themselves as goons. There was talk about that weeks ago way before this game was even in the spot light. Tell me one incident where Burrows or Lappier injured someone. Sure they yap but I see that amongst all teams out there. Marchand on the other hand already has faced discipline by the NHL in 3 different occasions in his 2 years of playing. There are even Bruin fans agreeing that he needs to be put in his place. Anyway, we can go back and forth on this you see one thing and I see another. But I will be first to admit when we have made a mistake.

oh and I forgot to mention that I would love to see you tell Mike Tyson he is a sissy for biting Holyfield's ear. Lol

 

[MATTIAC]

I was on the Boston website today. Seen their group photo from winning theCup.

GO CANUCKS GO~~~!!!!!



I'm with you S.W.A.T.

right behind you


GO CANUCKS !!!

Hmmm, I'm no expert, but it would appear that NESN is just a tad biased. AK, it doesn't matter how NESN or you try to spin it, the Boston Goons are a dirty team. They've been in the spotlight for being a dirty team for a while, yet they whine and cry about any action taken against them. Boston's motto : If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, then baffle them with bu!!ch!t.

 

[AkNomad]

Yeah, your boys Burrows and LaPierre are angels alright. It's very obvious to me that you didn't read either of those editorials without any kind of bias, you just jump to conclusions like the rest of the Canucks fanbase. Yes, my info came from NESN but where do you get your info?? Oh yeah, TSN.ca, a CANADIAN network, that's not biased huh? GMAFB.

If Marchand got 5 games then that is what he gets, I have yet to disagree with one of Shanahans decisions. He'll serve his time and move on and hopefully learn something from his suspension.

You can yap until your blue in the face and it won't change a thing about how I and many other hockey fans feel about the Canucks. And you'll be the first to admit when they make a mistake?? Burrows bit Bergeron and you laughed about it, that shows a lot of class. Not.

 

[eclipse1966]

like I said tell me one incident either of those two have injured anyone by their reckless play like your angels have. Lucic pretty much bulldozes down Miller and gives him a nice concussion and basically got away with murder. Should have thrown the book at him. If it were someone else doing that to Thomas, the Bruins would be calling for his head on the block. Face it Bruins play dirty and everyone else sees it but the Bruins fans and organization. If you dont like to read the comments on TSN (which by the way are far from Canuck fans as they worship the eastern teams far more), then go to NHL.com You will find the same reaction there as well. As for the biting issue, you guys are hanging on to such a lame example it is laughable. He put his fingers in his mouth. Just what do you guys expect him to do?? Add the fact that he had hockey gloves on. Give it a break already.

 

[AkNomad]

What I find amusing is the fact that the Bruins hadn't played a game like this all year until the Canucks came into town. That pretty much speaks for itself. And why did Luongo not play in this game? I'm sure he had a good excuse. lol

 

[eclipse1966]

When did Lucic hit on Miller take place...........?.............This year. I have to admit these two teams bring the worst out of each other as Canucks had not played a game like that either. Watched last night and it was rather boring compared to the Sat game. As for Luongo, the reason the played Schnider is because he is from NE and had lots of family at the game.

 

[AkNomad]

What does Lucic have to do with anything?

And speaking of Lucic, why was he thrown out of the game on Saturday when it was clear that he didn't leave the bench to join in on the fun? The NHL rescinded his game misconduct penalty.

 

[eclipse1966]

you are saying Bruins haven't had a game like the other day. I assume you mean controversial games which the hit on Miller was a huge issue. As for him coming out, per video replay he did come back onto the ice which is an automatic 10 game suspension but the league wiggle this wiggled that and excused it. Anyway, I am sure everyone has there own version of that issue. Personally I think they are splitting hairs on it by simply interpreting it differently. I dont think he should be suspended on that. I am sure he got a warning.

 

[AkNomad]

That game against the Sabres was nothing compared to this game IMO. I watched the video of Lucic and he did not leave the bench to join in, he was already on the ice but we'll just have to agree to disagree. I can see you really hate the Bruins as you like to bash them at every instance. I guess losing the SC to them really affected you. In the end, it's only a game.

he did step onto the bench with one foot, it was a call on the ice from the official, and it wasnt until going back and looking at tape and different angles they excused his game misconduct. LaPierre and Burrows are not head hunters, rather like to get under the skin of their opponents with little jabs here and there that do not hurt or jeopardize another players career. Sportsnet showed a 30-45 second clip of Marchand in many games doing dirty hits, so its not like its something hes never done, and being a repeat offender he did get 5 games. If you review the tape, which i have numerous times salo was defiantly not taking a "RUN" at him like CJ suggested. That could of been a career ending hit to Salo. The only person on the canucks that was a repeat offender getting suspensions and hurting guys is no longer a canuck. The reason this game was so intense was IMO because of the way game 7 finished, canucks wanted to show they werent a push over and could take what bruins delivered, and again IMO this is how game 7 should of went down. As far as luongo not getting the start, well its Schnieds home town, his parents and friends were all there to watch.

Hey I am not losing any sleep over it if that is what you are suggesting. I guess I simply dont like a team that gets the benefit of the doubt because of who they are / due for a SC etc etc. Most Canadians feel that the league "favours" larger market teams in recent years simply due to dollars and cents/TV viewership. After all, it would be terrible if the SC finals were between two Canadian teams as interest south of the border would literally tank. They also know that no matter what, they can rely on the Canadian fan to keep coming back to the great game as it is a passion for most here. Bettman has bent over backwards to keep teams in markets that have no business having a team simply because the lack of interest. On the other hand, there are a few Canadian cities screaming for one including Winnipeg that finally got one again. So, what I am saying here is that as a long term fan of the game, I have seen bad call after bad call going not just against the Canucks but also other Canadian teams. Bruins just happen to be benefiting from it right now. I dont expect you would understand.

here is some good info

 

[AkNomad]

And yet you still argue the Lucic penalty.

It's very apparent to me that talking hockey with you is a one sided conversation and I no longer wish to take part in it. Enjoy your game.

Dude, I ain't arguing that call, if Shanny says it's a 5 gamer then so be it. Why don't you guys read what I type instead of ignoring it and posting your own bias bs?

hey I am not going to make a circle into a square for the sake of argument/discussion. He was off the ice with one foot onto the bench and the other one more or less there. But like I said I think they are splitting hairs so I am in support that he did not get suspended. Anyway, I have a feeling we will be talking again. Cheers till next time.
