jonnycanuck46 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I'm sick of us tooting our own horns and calling ourselves the classiest team in hockey. We are SO NOT!!! If the Canucks want to earn that title, they have to come out objectively and win hockey games. Last time I checked, the Canucks don't have a cup to their name, so why do we all run around saying we're the **** when we still need to prove ourselves? Its like a guy in a fight who throws a solid punch and solutes the crowd, only to get totalled right after but the guy he's fighting! I am a DIEHARD fan of this team to the death, but honestly we can't compare to teams like Detroit and New York in terms of class. Never see diving or cheap plays out of those teams- just good, solid winning combinations. So hold off the "stay classy, Vancouver" comments until the Stanley Cup is parading through Robson and Burrard. /Rant **Edit: Have fun flaming. Your the ones who will be bandwagoning, not me. And oh, is that so 2009? Its a WORD, words don't get old last time I checked. Fact is, the diving and whining has to stop, and the focused hockey has to resume.

mpt Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I think this team is classy as an organization, MG runs this team like a professional business with respect for the employees of this franchise. On the ice however I totally agree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimberWolf Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 What you you prefer? Our fans boo Lu, we get called on not being supportive enough. We go all in and we are being unrealistic? Would all of you elitists just get together and write a list of rules about how we are all allowed to cheer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gino Odjick Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I'm a die-hard Canucks fan. Born and raised in British Columbia. As much as I hate to say it, I think we all know that Detroit is the classiest team in the league, if such a thing exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoreyPerry Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Hudler got 2 mins for diving yesterday. So detroit doesn't dive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understand Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 It is just the image of our club. When u think about the Canucks, you think about guys like Burrow, Kes, Sedins, Luongo....these guys CAN'T fight! If we have some BIG AND TOUGH players to symbolize our team, people will see us as a strong team instead of a puss team even if we have guys like Sedins and Kesler. Therefore, the most important thing for this team is to add several BIG AND TOUGH player to help the team to have a better image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
