ABNuck Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I hope this means they will re-tire as coaches and not players.They don't have to wait until they're coaches...they can head over to Fountain Tire right now and get 4 for 3.JK...I agree, they could at least be scouts in Sweden or something.

ABNuck Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Do you reilize that we are talking about a "SPORTS TEAM"... Not About the Twins being social-giants like... Gandhi ??We are talking about Hank and Dank Sedin. Local heroes. That is all. I'm sorry they don't meet your ridiculously pompous definition of heroes. Again, head on over to the Children's Hospital website and see if your "the Sedins aren't heroes" schtick will gain any traction over there. I think you'll be flamed to ashes over there too.The general consensus amongst Canucks fans is that they are 2 of the greatest players to ever don a Nucks uniform. IN ADDITION to all that they are humble humanitarians and are deeply respected by teammates, opponents and league officials alike. I suspect there are also some families who have benefited from their generosity who feel the same...as I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Strome Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Good to hear, as long as they retire at the end of this contract or re-sign for 3rd line money, otherwise...On a different note, I heard something today that was so abstract that I had to share with the group:I'm at the checkout line at Rona. The cashier was acting kinda tired so I said "well, at least you can head home soon, crack a beer and watch the game" to which she replied "what game"? Since I wasn't talking Thursday night football I advised her that the Nucks were playing the Sens to which she blurted out "GO SENS"! I said "Go Sens? Huh?" (assuming she was from the Least Coast). She said, and I am NOT kidding here, she actually said this..."I'll cheer for the Canucks when the Sedins retire. They're (are you ready for this, have a seat) TOO COCKY". She said Henrik and Daniel Sedin are too cocky. So of course I was like:"Never heard that before I said...never"!That is a strange thing to hear. Too cocky..wtf?O btw Ottawa nor Ontario is on the east coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therefore I don't believe I'm peddling anything, I believe I speak for the whole group when we, the ones who decide who OUR heroes are, would decidedly put the Sedins right up there. BTW, Stan Smyl has won the exact same number of cups as the Sedins have...but he doesn't have an Art Ross, a Hart OR a Lindsay (you know the one where all the other players in the league vote for their MVP)...sooo...just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks Prophet Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Only a disgusting troll would try to discredit people based on the fact that they've donated to a freakin' children's hospital. The Sedins and their families will always be welcomed with open arms by the people of Vancouver, and their numbers will be immortalized in Canucks history. So the sooner a certain troll comes to terms with these facts, the better off that person will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I'm glad they want to stick it out in Vancouver no matter what. Hopefully in another couple of years they'll have a chance at a lengthy playoff run in secondary rolls.I don't think they'll be secondary unless they play until 40+. Maybe if we trade for Crosby and Ovechkin... Still would prefer sedins though on the first line. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABNuck Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 You know what...I apologize. This has gotten way out of hand. You are certainly entitled to your opinion, and as such, so is everyone else. I feel the Sedins are local heroes, clearly you don't. Nice to meet you.Oh, and the camera adds 25 pounds, and 10 years.
