I haven't liked Torres since.. ever. He was a shmuck in Buffalo and will be a shmuck wherever he goes.

Joe Haggarty's articles for the most part are awful. I think I'd rather read a leaf bashing article by damien cox lol.

With that said I really have doubts about vancouver closing it out tonight. I simply don't believe them hoisting the cup in boston is going to happen.

I'm at the point that I hate burrows once again. I remember I hated that little dickhead big time last year but he really didn't do all that much this year but he's back in full form. Lappiere might end up being the worst trade the canucks could of made at the deadline. The dude is just such a cock smoker he just seems like more of a cancer to a team then anything. I remember some of my canadien buddies were happy to see him gone and for good reason.

I just hate that type of reporting because I think it makes the game look bad its self. There is so many angles the writer could have went but he went what I would say is the 'sore loser' route. At the end of the series, if Vancouver wins, it will be all about 2 things. Van's win, and Thomas's play. None of this other crap is going to matter, and I very much doubt the Burrows chomp goes anywhere down the line, other then a fun thing Boston fans will do any time Vancouver comes to town.

I picked Vancouver to win it at the start, so I want them to win based on that. But other then that, it has been a very good series to watch, and when your team isn't in it, that is all that matters.

I don't see anything wrong with the reporting because it is largely based on facts. And he wasn't making any excuses on behalf of Boston so I don't think he's going the "sore loser" route, either.

He's just talking about the way the Canucks have been playing and how they have transformed themselves into one of the most hated teams in northern America and I have to agree with him.

At the end of the day, some people will only remember the Champion and Tim Thomas' play, but I guarantee you a lot of hockey fans and teams will hate the Canucks for a long time when it's all said and done.

lol did you read the article?

The Canucks may win the Cup, and they may even celebrate on the Garden ice Monday. Or they might just crumble like a spineless hockey team visibly afraid to play in a hostile atmosphere on the road.

lol @ the spineless comment.

People are just hating them because they're winning. If they aren't where they are now no one would give to shits about them. That's how it is with people and the Red Wings, too.

Doesn't really have to do with winning.

Torres, Burrows and Lapierre are pretty much fucking faggots no matter what colors they are wearing.

Nucks should go get Avery and call out Ville Niemenen from retirement and roll the complete 5 man cunt line.

My main dislike for the Canucks is that their fans have been useless wankers this entire playoffs season.

Eh there really wasn't any hate till they really started the diving and all that nonsense. When you have players like Kesler on your team who literally battle everything out and never take a dive once vs the sedins acting like they got shot the hate does start to brew.

The only hate people have on the wings is they are boring as hell to watch lol.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEERE WEEEEEEE GO!

Wahey! Get out of the paint Lou.

Game 7 here we come.

How the fuck can anyone want Vancouver to win? Look at these bitches fold up on the road. Hopefully the Bruins can extend this lead in the 2nd and really get into their heads.

I'm pulling for Boston, but if Vancouver protects home ice, people will forget the 17-3 whooping they took in Beantown pretty quickly...

Buddy of ours was doing a crossword during the second period of the game. Spent all period chirping a friend over text messaging for a bet he has, then left during 2nd intermission. Exciting game.
