nux4lyfe Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Why would you move to Edmonton?..that was your first mistake! ...having said that I'm sure any bar would show it since we are only 1 of the 2 Canadian teams in the run.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesler the Beast Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Unfortunately I am stuck in Calgary cus of my job plus its crazy expensive to live in Van right now so I also live in hostile territory. Come on down to Schanks south, ya its a 2 and a half hour drive and you will most likely be threatened when cellying after a big playoff win but you usually get a pretty decent gathering of Nucks fans at most games. For any Nucks fans reading this in Calgary if you know of a better spot to cheer on the Canucks on our cup run this year let me know I'm down, or come join me at Schanks South!

YEGCanuck Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Hey Bud, try the The Pint - Off Whyte. It's in Old Strahcona at 80 Ave and 104 Str. Alternatively The Great Canadian Brew Houses usually have access to any Canucks game. You just want to remember this is Oil country and there are not many 'Nuck fans like us. Cheers!

DS4quality Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Maybe the new north shore club on 81 and 105 street? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucksnhl Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 There are lots of Canucks fans here in Edmonton! Literally any strip will show playoff games, check out Jasper Ave, Whyte Ave, etc. There are lots of sports bars around the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James48 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Huge Canucks fan here in Edmonton! They are everywhere here... Last years playoffs was the first time I felt like I was home since moving to Edmonton from Van. All those jerseys were so nice to see here!! Boston Pizza will show the playoffs and The Pint (as stated above). If you're looking for games on the internet there are many sites to go to watch them. I rarely miss a game while living in Edmonton... It may be difficult to find some times but I am a Canuck and I don't give up, neither should you. Good Luck and welcome to Edmonton - Don't eat the sushi, it's crazy expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
