fivethej Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I'm looking at today's Province and there's a story about year end on-line polls everything Canucks, but what really caught my eye is that some Canucks fans actually want Fin gone as mascot. Fin is one of best mascots around - He does alot of charity stuff and the kids absolute love him. Nice to see where the priorities are with this fan base. Instead of worrying about state of team/organization, some of fans are more concerned about going after the beloved mascot for absolutely no reason at all. Simply to be total dicks and because you're so upset with this team/organization so decide to take it out on poor old Fin. He's the lone bright spot of Canucks. What a total joke. You should be so embarrassed. Ignorance is abliss, including on THESE BOARDS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xRussianrocket Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Fin doesnt do charity work, lol. Any moron in any suit will do whatever the canucks management tell him to do. Its probably a new guy in that thing weekly.. did i just wreck your mind? lol i hate our logo and our stupid mascot. Orca bay is no more anyways. I personally would love to drop the stench of orca bay past and assume a better identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toni Zamboni Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 i like Fin, i voted to keep him. i think the Orca is a perfect logo to rep Vancouver and the Nux. we have wayyyyy more bigger problems than our mascot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM_ Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Is there a correlation between the mascot and winning the cup? Should we rename Fin "Stanley"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofsurrey Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 How is Fin's skating ? I know he can swim fast but how does that transfer to skating on ice.... Does Fin have any kind of a shot ? We are in serious need of top 6 forwards and a shooter for our PowerPlay ... Would FIN be interested ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 It's the team's owner trying to deflect the focus of the fans from the crappy retool philosophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingofsurrey Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I would prefer to see Benning fired instead of fin..... Fin would probably do a better job as GM than Benning. At least Fin would not throw in a 2nd in every trade he/she would make.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raymond Luxury Yacht Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I would welcome Johnny Canuck, but I have no issue with Fin. People in Vancouver will complain regardless of what it is, you may as well just make it an Orca in a mack jacket, holding a fish in one hand and an axe with a rainbow flag painted on the blade in the other. It doesn't really matter what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
