You’re almost dead, just pick a new team while you can. Sharks about to draft the next Crosby, things are lookin up.

I have tried, it isn't something you can just turn on and off, unless of course you are Vintage

They just had their third best season ever in terms of points, and you can’t stand the teams best players. Maybe it’s not the team.

No I can't stand 2 of the teams better players. I enjoy watching Miller, Boeser, Lindholm , Garland, Joshua and really enjoy Zadorov.

Will just have to curtail my Canucks viewership over the next 8 seasons

Aren't you putting up with Hughes already?

If you can’t get past something like that, it just speaks to your lack of knowledge of team sports. The crest on the front being more important than the names on the back. Which isn’t surprising.

I put $5 on the Rangers after the first period at +400. I like my chances right now.

Yet here I am on a fan site of the Canucks, cheering on the team whenever I am watching.

You’re not here cheering, you never say anything positive, you just b!tch and moan the whole time you’re here. Truth be told, this isn’t my favourite Canucks team either, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting them to win so bad I have to go outside for a few minutes so I don’t have a jammer when things get dicey in the playoffs.

You still can't stand Hughes?

At worst he's like a modern day Paul Coffey. Yes he's undersized and shouldn't play 27 minutes a night unless they're behind in the game.

The kid plays with heart.

I think you get confused easily about how people cheer for this team. I believe you think that if a fan doesn't love the same players as you drool over, then they are negative all the time.

Try not to get to worked up, over the games, not worth getting that jammer.

I have given Hughes credit several times this season, he just isn't the type of defenseman I approve of, as he is still pretty soft, like in the 1st 3 games last series when he wasn't willing to feel the pain, and let the Nashville player get the puck while he got out of the way.

I just think it’s silly to not want to cheer for the team because you don’t like a couple players. Ownership and Management, I could see that, that infuriates me.

The 1992/93 and the 2002/03 teams were my favourites, I didn’t like a few players but didn’t stop me from cheering or liking the team. 2011 was pretty special too. Early to mid 80’s I was playing hockey and didn’t really pay attention much.

He is a special skater and a tremendous puck mover. Extremely skilled players these days are rarely tough or heavy, save a few, that’s what Reuby likes, he’s stuck in the 80’s.

Lafreniere was a beast again tonight, still only 22 years old at the beginning of next season.

Did I say anything about not cheering for the Canucks.

I believe I said I would reduce my viewership, then said something how Fandom isn't something you can turn on and off.

He drives so much play though. If he was Pronger sized and nasty he would have been picked 1st overall.

I like Hughes game way more than Pettersson, Hughes drives play, as you mentioned. Petey can get lost on the outside and become insignificant. Hughes is always in it.

Yes.

I wouldn't say insignificant though as he keeps improving defensively. I've always been concerned about having two lightweight stars though.
