BigRedMachine Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 While it's nice that Henrik recently passed Naslund for all time points as a Canuck, I am reminded that they are statistically tied for the only total that really matters: number of Stanley cups won. Zero. So can we hold off on hoisting any more numbers to the rafters until someone accomplishes something that actually matters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avicii Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Jesus Christ you are a debbie downer eh Might as well bring down the 12 and 16 since they didn't win cups with our organization. Stupid thread. Go home, you're drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNACanuck Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yes, lets hold off on player banners being hoisted until a cup comes to Van? hahaha... lets ignore our players efforts, guess you've never heard of recognizing someone's accomplishments and sacrifice before.

CrippledCanuck Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Fail troll is fail. Pretty sure creating a thread with the intended purpose of trolling or getting a negative reaction from Canuck fans is against the forum rules, but that's my interpretation of the purpose of your thread.....

Bertorama Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 The Canuck forums are full of ignorant and flagrant attempts at enticing a response like a three year old throwing a temper tantrum to get attention. So what else is new. We don't have a cup. I believe we are all very aware of that. Thanks I almost forgot ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRedMachine Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 I guess given that other Canucks fans dismiss talking about hard truths as being a "troll", that explains allot about why our franchise has accomplished so little.

Niloc009 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 So basically what you're saying is that: Ben Eager > Henrik Sedin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedMachine Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 wow. first of all, the only total that really matters is not number of Stanley cups won. do you really think that in a season, the only thing that really matters is who won the cup? the rest of it was not important? how many amazing players have not won the cup? did they not actually matter? I agree that winning a cup is obviously very significant, and is a boost for getting your number retired, but that can't be a criterion for automatic exclusion.

BigRedMachine Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 alright well your original post is a little abrasive, and canucks fans don't like to be reminded they're part of the no cup club. what you're arguing is that sedin should not be retired unless he gets a cup in vancouver, correct? could you give some arguments why not? couldn't a player be an amazing leader on a team, a fantastic player, and a true role model in the community without winning a cup?

BigRedMachine Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Hard truth? Just because we haven't won a cup doesn't mean we haven't been a great team worthy of accolades. But obviously you have a very different opinion....which I am very glad is in the minority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
