I don't know how a person can be a hockey fan when they look for reasons to hate the most talented players. 

I dislike Matthew’s very much, and the Maple Leafs. But I don’t hate them and I don’t wish harm on them. I hope they don’t win a cup before Vancouver does.

Bedard is like McDavid without the character issues.  Yes please.

Already had to switch detergents thanks to the Tide commercials.

I was already using Seventh Generation so no worries there.

Clearly you don’t watch enough of the other big sports in NA. The best players get away with a lot more and the favouritism is real. Watch an NFL game on a Sunday and see what happens when Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers get clipped with a late hit. 

Petey certainly never got that treatment.

 

So...no.  Doesn't make it right...kind of takes away from it if they get "help".

The canned noise is a little much.

I heard the recorded Canucks fans from when the suits invaded.

Interesting viewpoint. I remember everybody hating Crosby every time he played us too. Matthews I totally get though. 

Never hated Crosby, even when we played for us. Always liked him, and still do. The constant shoving down our throat about McDavid and Matthews is a joke. 

 

I know they're both incredibly talented, I dont need that told to me 934043834034834304 different times every second of every day.

Is he really a terrible person though? 
or is he just a competitive professional athlete?

I get it, if he was on our team we would love him, but he’s not so we hate him. 
But let’s give him props.
100 points is just incredible in so few games. 

but he must have gotten 30 of those points against the nucks, at best, an AHL calibre team

[MikeyD]

Another great shift for Graovac.

It’s Toronto for me. I guess I contradicted myself because I almost feel the same way about Matthew’s. Great hockey player, but I can’t &^@#ing stand him. I hope he never wins a cup. 

Haha, it's all good 

 

Yeah, I hope the Leafs cup aspirations continue to make like Matthews's pants and drop 

[Krinjer33]

All the other greats have managed to be great without his character issues.  If he started playing like a man instead of a gutless piece of garbage, I'd consider giving him props.    As it is,  I won't be cheering for him to get up if he gets drilled with a hit.

Fair enough. I’m not here to argue about it. In fact I agree with you. If he gets levelled with a hit I won’t be cheering for him to get up either.

I believe it. I’ll stick to hockey though. But you’re right it’s all about the $$$

Yeah with Crosby.  People kinda chose Ovie over him... though I feel like Sid won a lot of people over throughout the years.  Bouncing back from those concussions.  Team Canada. I have a lot of time for him now.

Brady and Rodgers aren't diving every chance they get.
