Patrick Kane Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Ever have friends who are fans of the Canucks, but don't really know much about the team or hockey in general, and whenever they try to partake in a conversation, they say something completely false/made-up? Example, talking to a buddy today and he made these statements. - Canucks are known to have a hot start and then suck at the end of the season - Eddie Lack said he never wants to be a starting goalie. - Nicklas Jensen is a good center. - He said he was going to put a 'Naslund' patch on his 'Kesler' jersey because they wore the same number. Pretty funny stuff. I also remember when someone had no clue about Cody Hodgson, saying stuff like he's getting top line minutes and top PP time with the Canucks and wasn't producing enough.

TheRussianRocket. Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 *never watched a game* When Canucks are winning: "Canucks are awesome man, turning it around." When Canucks are losing: "Canucks suck, they'll never win and don't have hope." ...then they pretend like they watch the games and say what went wrong which is completely inaccurate.

Kevin-B Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I can't say I have Canuck friends/fans say that. I seem to be blessed with attending WHL games with really loud, usually drunk fans that explain the rules of hockey to us slow learners. Those same folks usually shout "Shoot it" regardless of where or what team has the puck, they also like to chant "fight" at random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best ones are the ones that scream at the ref anytime any Cougs player gets touched or takes a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin-B Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Sounds just like Seattle, Everett, Portland etc. I use these moments to explain to my son "good sportsmanship". Sadly we've seen bad fans everywhere, our own barn included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twilight Sparkle Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Not trying to be a jerk, but so what? Not everyone is a die hard fan. agree completely the trending thing in bc, or at least on cdc, for the past few years is being a canucks fan. you can say you "grew up a canucks fan." anyone can. you're nothing special, dude even if you aren't "die hard", just a little research on wikipedia and studying the basic concept of the salary cap and the availability of capgeek, will automatically make you a "long time/hardcore fan/know more than the average j-brone" if you want to paint yourself as such i've never studied the concept of the salary cap, never looked at capgeek and never booked my fantasy canucks team to fit within a salary cap world, because i'm not a fantasy booker, nor do i consider myself a "hardcore" fan, or consider myself knowing more than what people in charge of this team do anyone who tries to dispute whatever i said, has never took a look at their habits, or is full of **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yes we can nucks Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Not trying to be a jerk, but so what? Not everyone is a die hard fan. And not everyone is as knowledgeable as the people on CDC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etsen3 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Not trying to be a jerk, but so what? Not everyone is a die hard fan. The problem is not with being ignorant about the Canucks (most adults have more important priorities) but having loudmouth opinions based on no knowledge.
