Butters Stoch Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I think we all know very well that dominating the regular season doesn't win the cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMapleLaughs Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 It's hard not to hate a team full of dbags like the Hawks. From their overrated captain on down. Used to respect Hossa a bit, but even he is an 'official' Hawk after that brutal dive to get Hansen suspended. Now there's not one Hawk i can honestly respect. Didn't like the Ducks much in '07 either, but at least Niedermayer and Selanne are all-class. It's a shame that Team Douchebag beat their record.

Lychees Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Good for them. I don't like any of the Hawks (with maybe the exception of Joe Q since it's HILARIOUS to see him go brick red and spout off when he gets pissed), one bit but good for them. Time will tell if it means anything come playoffs, Canucks know as well as anyone that the real test starts when the playoffs do, regular season is so nonchalance as long as you make it into the top 8.

thema Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Clearly it's an NHL conspiracy. I mean, what else could it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey Coach12 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 If the Cup keeps going to teams that have won it recently then the Cup will never come back to Canada. Which means you can kiss goodbye to the Cup going to the Canucks or any other Canadian team cause it will just keep going to teams that have just won it like Chicago, Boston, and LA. Besides I don't want to see Chicago win another Stanley Cup before we do it would just be too much too bear for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey Coach12 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I can't wait to see this guy start a thread if the Hawks do win the Cup. He will probably say that it was undeserved because of the shortened season or some conspiracy nonsense. The best team wins it all and even though the Nucks had a very impressive run to make it to the finals in 2011 (that was an amazing year for Vancouver), they just weren't good enough to win it all in the end. Unfortunately, now their window seems to be closing, as the Sedins are getting older every year and although they are still two of the most elite players in the league, their productivity is bound to drop as they age.

Riviera82 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised if Chicago get's stunned in round 1. Remember Detroit in 2006? That was unexpected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB007 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 The last several teams who have achieved similar starts as the Hawks went on to win the Cup. So seriously, give Kane an ACL, Hossa another concussion and Keith whatever already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surtur Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I would love it if my Fav team would win multiple cups either back to back or within a couple years ala Edmonton did in the glory days of being great. Also as Vancouver and other teams have proven a great regular season does not mean a Cup. they can not keep it up they have a mistaken Identity right now and they are going to be exposed for what they really are soon enough. esp the goalies.

Hobble Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I agree OP. If the Jets won the Cup, I know I wouldn't want them to win another for at least 10 years. Leafs fans must be very satisfied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazyhawk Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Not to worry Canuck faithfull as Hawk fans are enjoying this streak but not getting overly excited. It's nice and all but as we all know it's how you finish that counts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simalexander Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 Besides The only reason Chicago is on this streak is because there is no East vs West games. I don't think Chicago would be on this hot streak if they had faced Pittsburgh, Rangers, or Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwijibo Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I can't tell this if this is the dumbest thread I've ever read or a brilliant satire. Sadly I think it's the former. So to summarize what I've read so far on this thread, teams who have won the cup shouldn't be allowed to be competitive for at least 10 years because someone else should have a turn at winning the cup. What do you think this is? T-Ball? Another megamind suggested purposely injuring their star players rather than having to compete with them on a level playing field. Wow, just speechless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simalexander Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 Your right it is absurd but I just don't want to see the Canada Stanley Cup drought continue for another season. The Cup hasn't been won by a Canadian team since 1993. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleShield Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 No biggie really. They will inevitably crash and burn, be it in their next game, or in the WCF against us, I don't care. Despite what you might think, this streak is probably taking a lot out of them. Also, if they hit the playoffs and hit, say, Rinne on a hot streak in round 1, then I can see them going out. Happened to us vs Quick last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
