Brandishes a Nucks Blade
Come on!
Can you disagree? Objectively, they have played terrible. And the vast majority was NOT Luongo’s fault this year. Granted, no Daniel doesn’t help them at all, but all the great teams adjust and still play well and even win on occassion. My theory is that they cannot take the pressure. The President’s trophy comes with too many expectations and can lead to lax play because of overconfidence. Vancouver seems to epitomize this as they are perennially good, but just as routine at underachieving when it matters.
Listen, I am a Red Wings fan. We are no better off being down 3-1, and in many ways we have similar problems to Vancouver. Too much focus on intellectual and finesse plays will not get you far in the playoffs if you are not willing to adapt your game and play hard nosed; crash the net, score scrummy goals, finish your hits … I watch Detroit play a lot, and especially in the last couple games this has been a problem. Detroit has outplayed Nashville in almost every game, but they haven’t been scoring enough goals. Playing well is not enough. Victory is a product of desire and tenacity, right now Detroit and Vancouver are failing at both.
Vancouver has suddenly become the underdog, and I want to root for them now. So don’t give me any bullcrap about brandishing “'Nucks Blade”…
Canadians are even more thickheaded when it comes to their hockey teams than Americans are on a daily basis.
Ya, just like Americans don’t know a thing about baseball.
Hockey fan from Finland here. We will win this year too!!!

That logo has got to be the best hockey > golf insult ever.
Awesome, I absolutely hate the Cannucks. Go Kings
MU HA HA HA
Hahaha… that is excellent. At least you can recognize somehumor in their loss.
I rather liked this on the Red Wings:
1 series down 3 to go. Go Blues.
well I’m not much on hockey anymore but GO Senators!!!
1 series down 3 to go. Go Blues.
I’m only cheering for the Blues if they promise to win the whole thing, because I’ve got 4 Kings in my pool, and first place is $500.

You can’t get much closer than they got last night to being knocked out. And that was against FLORIDA
Beating the Flyers? … Not gonna happen.

Oh I am not mad. Actually I wanted New Jersey to win. (It was better for my investments if they did, though they tanked anyway which is beside the point)
Though to be quite honest, it was the series I was least interested in. I mean, mediocre New Jersey and No-Fans-Land Florida? … not quite engaging.
I just like to repudiate over-zealous fans who hold their team on a pedestal just because they have some disproportionate pride in them. I did the same thing to Gargantua, though he dealt with the LA humiliation in stride, to his credit.
But still… No way in hell NJ beats Philadelphia. I will bet on that one.
