5Fivehole0 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 *Disclaimer* Not sure which discussion to put this in. I felt it was Canucks talk due to being about Canucks fans... We Are All Canucks . But what do we think about ourselves? Around the league us Canuck fans are known as rioting, spoiled, negative, whiny, bandwagoning, conspiracy theorists. While I know we are not the rioters that were portrayed by the media. I do think that our fans tend to bandwagon pretty hard on our own players. Burrows Luongo AV Booth Ebbet and it seems like Kesler is next in line. Kevin Weekes wrote that article about us and I feel he really hit the nail on the head but a lot of people disagreed and a lot of people discredited him because "he was a bad a goalie". The fact remains the guy made it to the NHL and has a career as an analyst, I assume he knows a few things about the game. What do you guys think of our fan base? Do you feel that we are a negative fan base? Do we REALLY deserve a cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jägermeister Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 We have a lot of good fans, sadly the idiotic ones are the ones that garner more attention from people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Grimes Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 The problem is the good fans are the ones that have enough sense to keep their mouths shut until we've got our first cup. The loud ones are generally the idiots that still think the Sedins should be traded & Kesler is overrated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Ebbet and AV deserved every word of hate speech they got. Luongo is OK in the regular season, but we really do need to replace him if we are going to succeed in the playoffs. I don't know how someone can actually defend Ebbett and AV though. Neither belong in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shinkaruk98 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Honestly who cares. Didn't your mom teach you the basics? Who cares what other people or in this case "fans" of other teams think. Oh and refs can't be out to get us they are out their making calls for their jobs they will be fired on the spot if they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lillooet_Hillbilly Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 how about posting that article for us old timers that don't know where to look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanfor42 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Is your poll for real? Come on. You ask if the refs/ Bettman are out to get us and then give no opportunity for a negative response. This is not serious. You, I think, are just trying to antagonize fans. Further, you need to gain some perspective. There are many Canucks fans who don't do all the silly things you accuse them of. The majority support the team and aren't known as rioting, spoiled whiny etc etc. Please mods have a look at this guy. This is clearly trolling.

King Heffy Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 AV's a pretty good coach, he just needs a different team every couple/few years to stay fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riviera82 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 No, he's not. Anyone who mistakes Ebbett for an NHLer and thinks putting Edler and Bieksa out there as a pairing is a good idea has no business being in the NHL. I'd question whether or not he's good enough to coach in the ECHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5Fivehole0 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Good point. Although despite him or not we did string together a few pretty nice regular seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lock Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Don't know if you were trying to be funny, but there are no "no" answers for your 3rd question. As much as I'd sometimes like to think everyone's out to get us I still look up and see the sky (unless if I'm drunk then I look down). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeySpecialist Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 hahahahahahaha ur an idiot if u think bettman is out to get the canucks. he's doing his job and just because he's expanding south doesn't mean he hates Canada. i bet you thought he was the one who ordered the refs to be so bad in the sj series too huh? what a joke. he's done more for this league than anyone ever has.
