Second round and there's empty seats. I heard the rink is quite a commute but still, it's the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lock Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 If we get mad over something like this, we are the ones who look bad in the end, not the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neko Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 I've been in the Pint several times, not a bad bar but it's a bit weird to see them give ONE YEAR free wings to Oilers fans in a Vancouver Canucks city. I don't remember Canucks fans getting that kind of giveaway from the Pint? I wouldn't care if it was free wings just for the playoffs period.

IBatch Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 It's been so long since the Cup stayed in Canada it's hard not to root for any team still alive that could bring it back where it belongs. Not including its resting place in the HHOF of course, or the replica that stands gaurd for fans selfies. Huge overreaction IMO. Now if they said free wings for ANA fans that's worth a solid beating.

If you ever drive to Ottawa you see the rink about 1/2 hour out of town, no kidding people are reluctant to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
on the cycle Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Probably should have just done the promo for everyone who watched game 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cindarella run with one of the most exciting players in the NHL leading your team. I think that's worth a half hour drive. I live in the middle of nowhere and a lot of Canuck fans would fly to Vancouver to watch games (when the team was good). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tystick Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 What a bunch of whiners. Facts: - Our team sucks. - The Oilers have a young solid core for the next decade. Get over it, they went through their pain and suffering and they deserve to feel welcome in Vancouver. Of course I enjoy the rivalry, but I enjoy hockey more than being a bitter fan.

Bruce Boudreau Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I don't blame them you woukd be surprised how many people you run in to on a daily basis who are not even born here and came from Alberta or "out East" from work and kept their sports loyalty. How else do you explain all the closet Habs,Leafs, Oilers fans who dress up as visitors while living in Vancouver that come out of the woodwork any time a major NHL team with some history comes to town.

westvandude Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 3 hours ago, Baggins said: And Tear in my Beer Tuesdays? And Lottery Wednesdays, where people get in line for a chance to win a free beer with the odds in favor of those who arrive earlier and are ahead in line. But an Oiler fan would somehow end up winning 3 free beers in a row, and as if that wasn't enough, they'd get another free gallon of premium beer on top of that... and once everyone starts complaining about how stupid the system is and one person shouldn't be able to win so many free beers, the dumb bar owner makes a quick reactionary change to just let anyone who just got in to the line get free beers even if there are people waiting ahead of them. Who cares about a fair system, as long as there is drama! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
