Baratheon Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I just wanted to give a shout out to all of you who are actively pulling for this team. Lately I have spoken to a lot of people who say that they don't like hockey any more or that they're not in to the Canucks any more. Now when the Canucks inevitably get exciting again they'll all come flooding back bandwagon style I'm sure. You guys are the true fans sticking it out through the hard times! People get a little heated at times debating things like tank vs non-tank or who we should draft. It's because you guys care about this team even through the tough times and that's what makes all of you the best! So when people start complaining about bandwagon fans when the Canucks get good again, give yourself a pat on the back from me because that's not you! Thanks everyone for keeping me sane! (Even when you drive me insane) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUCKER67 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Amen to that. Sometimes it's not easy being a Canucks fan, but that's what makes us great fans. The real Canucks fans pull for their team regardless of what their record is. Not everyone needs to have the same opinion, that would be boring, but for the most part I think we all want the Canucks to succeed and do well. Every time I see someone wearing a Cavaliers hat or Heat hat, I get annoyed, because no way would anyone wear those hats 10 years ago. Bandwagon jumpers.

xereau Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 This animated gif is worth.. a million? words. The real fans pulled the tank back onto the bandwagon after the losers drowned in their own misery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sygvard Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I come from the Northwest Territories. We barely have civilisation and humans up here, much less a team to call our own. Everyone picks a team to cheer for based on what they feel is right; the whole town is a mishmash of equally supported teams. I picked the Canucks completely arbitrarily as a small child. And gosh darn it I am going to stick with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo fan Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Been here through the good runs and bad runs - and always a Canuck fan I believe I see a good run in the near future - hope it is the Cup for us this round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimberWolf Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 The fact that our greatest triumphs are winning nothing in 82,94,11 and those couple of years with the West Coast express that were kinda neat and we're all still here is why I scoff at those that try to act like were the worst fans in the league. Bullcrap, teams that have the lack of support that is claimed die and get moved. We're going nowhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 We are all Canucks. Well, except those people who blow over to the other side whenever the going gets rough. I think we have a great fanbase here...a mix of all different types. We're resilient and, when we do finally get a cup, we're going to celebrate like there's no tomorrow. We have learned patience and to lean on each other a lot. Man, I love you guys. *tear* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just gotten annoyed lately with people dumping on the canucks and the whole sport of hockey just cause things aren't going their way. I appreciate having people like the folks on this forum to talk about my favourite team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slegr Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 It's been a rough couple of years, but we can't complain about the overall success in the last dozen or so years. I have to say though, watching a lot of the playoffs this year really reminded me of what good hockey is supposed to look like. We have a ways to go yet.

I guess winning the draft lottery from 9th next year will feel pretty damn good after the last 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
