Have you given up on this season. Let's take a poll!

[Ghostsof1915]

Self explanatory have you given up on this season? Yay or nay? Maybe? Too early too tell? Ask me again in another 10 games?

This feels like part two of the other thread

Anyone who has already given up on this team is not a true fan. Way to early to call the season a write off. I recall a St. Louis team a few years back that were, for all intents and purposes, out of the playoff picture and stormed back after the new year with a 24-6-4 record and went on to win the cup.

I like polls!  And no, the season is not over! 

[Kelly Green]

It's not even 10 games in yet!

Which is why there's the Maybe option, it's too early to call.

Mathematically, we're too far behind after losing our first 7 games.

 

The odds of us coming back and making the playoffs are very slim. It's much more likely we'll climb to a spot just outside the playoffs, which is the worst possible outcome.

 

I'd rather see us finish near the bottom, get a top prospect, and plan for a better future.

I was going to add we need affordable craft beer, and bc wine and good affordable food at Rogers Arena.

But I think that would run away with the poll.

I hate when this gets thrown around, gatekeeping fandom is garbage.

if we play .500 hockey the rest of the season we miss.  To make 98 points we need to play something like .644 hockey with a solid 1.3 of those points coming from within our own division.

 

Ask me in Dec, most people know how I feel now.

I like watching games and seeing the canucks win. If they make the playoffs thats great, i would love it.

 

If they don't make the playoffs i hope they finish last

Well the OP of the 95% of the fans have given up. And he won't post a poll. So I figured why not?

[King Heffy]

Win the week as Bruce likes to say.

[grumpyone]

NEVER!!!!! until we are mathimatically eliminated from the playoffs, then I'll give up on this season. But I'll NEVER give up on this team. 

[Nucker 67]

Just getting started. 

[rawkdrummer]

Depends on the final goal for this season. For me it's the cup.

I stand by what I said. There are a lot of fair weather fans on CDC.

Regardless of whether you hate it or not, is irrelevant. Sure, they had a crappy start, but it's way too early to write the season off.

And I repeat, gatekeeping is garbage. There are fair weather fans in every fanbase and on every fan site.

 

But let's get something clear, you don't get to dictate who can be a fan of what or how they engage with a team, or anything for that matter. Gatekeeping is trash, gatekeepers are garbage. I disagree with the opinions and views of some fans, to an intense level on some matters, but I don't question whether they're fans or not. If someone can be assed to sign up for a Canuck forum to discuss the Canucks they're a fan, plain and simple. If you don't like how they fan that's a you problem not a them problem. 

 

I'm a big punk guy, I'm a big metal guy, I'm into shit like video games, comics, anime, and manga, I'm very, very familiar with gatekeeping and gatekeepers. They just ruin shit for everyone, including the folks who might agree with their opinions. 

 

A fanbase doesn't need to be an echo chamber, there's room for all sorts of views, opinions, and beliefs.
