The Random Hockey Thoughts Thread

Maybe that's why they weren't at game 2?

I'm worried for them if they do make it to game 3. No doubt some Sharks fans won't be happy about them being there.

They said they are running out of money. The nashville series really drained their wallets.

They were a hit in Nashville and the opposing fans loved them because they weren't dicks and were really friendly. They're canadians so everyone will love them :smug:

If shark fans do act like idiots then they will cemet in my mind that they are truely the worst fan base in the nhl.

I bet you they could throw up a "need donations" link somewhere and they would easily get the money to fly to any place they wanted.

LOL nobody cares about what you think. If you let one or two idiots at the Sharks arena influence your opinion of 17,000 people then you're just as dumb as them.

This might be news to you, but most people don't like Canada or Canadians out here. Especially since they are coming to the Sharks arena to be a nuisance, I don't see it ending well for them because there are always dumb people out there.

Hopefully nothing happens to them though because I don't know how I will ever sleep if leaffan thinks the Sharks have the worst fan base in the NHL.

Really not but I'm guessing there are some Sharks fans that are. Anger + booze + losing + canadian guys in green outfits making a scene to annoy home team = bad situation.

They don't make a scene to annoy the home team though.

Seriously lol @ the last couple posts.

It doesn't matter what their intentions are, their act will definitely annoy Sharks fans at the Tank.

How do you not get this? Have you ever been to a sporting event? You've never seen people get mad at away fans for cheering loud or making a scene?

You're an idiot.

Good response.

It's obvious you really don't get it.

Please go to an away game sometime and get loud and obnoxious and see what happens. You've obviously been to very few away games in your life. Your fat little body would get pummeled by a handful of fans before the 3rd period finished.

This isn't Canada, kid. People aren't nice here. They will kick your ass if you give them a reason to.

Not saying I support it or think it's good, that's just the way it is. Keep your portly little body outside of the US and you should be ok. Now I know why you enjoy sitting behind a computer monitor to talk so high and mighty.

Isn't this contradicting its self though?

Thornton, Heatley, Marleau, Coutour, Boyle, Clowe and Setoguchi, the big names on the team are all Canadian.

Not getting into the war here, but just always seems odd that nationality goes right out the window if it is "your team". Considering like 75% of the team is the people you hate.

Good response.

I see you don't get it.

You don't get it. When they went to nashville they joined the pregame festivities with the pred fans outside. The reactions were really positive and people liked them because they weren't being abnoxious pricks. They posed with pred fans for pictures and overall had a good time from what most are saying.

What you're failing to understand is that they are turning into a little bit of a sideshow to the game and people outside of vancouver are joining in and having fun with it. They arn't two guys dressed in green suits drinking beer and being huge tools. Honestly I think they are doing a really good job at being a rival fan but at the same time being good guys for the fan aspect of the game. I think if they do go down to san jose and do the same thing they did in nashville most shark fans will run with it and have a good time. They arn't there to start fights.

As far as the rival fan thing well you truely are an idiot there. I live closer to detroit then toronto and have been there a few times for different games. Not only were the fans not being huge dicks (which is surprising because it is detroit after all) but most of the games have been a pretty good expierence. I got stuck in an elivator that goes to the 3 or 4 level parking garage after a wings loss in my leaf gear and it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I remember the comment "should we take him out now and blame it on the elivator" lol.

People wouldn't pummel me btw. Get off the roid rage for a min and try and read.

I really don't know why and I couldn't tell you why, but there are idiots here who boo the Canadian anthem for the same reason. I will never get it.

I'm sure they are fun and I'd enjoy partying with them. All I'm saying is there are dumb fans out there of every team and I have seen fights happen over much less.

I've seen a fan get shit thrown at him for simply cheering his team when they scored. I've seen people swear and threaten away fans for the same reason. I've seen this at SF Giants games, Niners games, Raiders games, Sharks games, etc. It happens everywhere.

And you would get pummeled dude. You are a 5'5" 180lb. mexican canadian computer geek.

You are one of those guys that gets mouthy on the internet because you can hide behind your computer, I'm guessing you keep your mouth shut and your dick tucked in between your legs when you go to away games because if you acted in real life how you do on here then there is no doubt in my mind that you would have gotten the ass kicking you rightfully deserve at some point in your life.

Man you must of started a new roid treatment today. I don't think I've managed to get you this steamed in a long time haha.

 

[Tailback U]

I'm actually having a good laugh about this as well.

Thinking of a 5'5" 180lb. mexican canadian computer dweeb getting his face pummeled in is pretty damn amusing.

"SAN JOSE HAS THE WORST FANS EVAR!! IT IS CEMETED IN MY BRAIN!!"

 

[leaffan]

I think :hemad:

 

[Tailback U]

PISSED.

 

 

[leaffan]

I had to thank that rebuttle. I knew someone funny was coming in the spoiler and when he gave that smirk I lost it.

 

[wr50l]

Tampa Bay playing ultra conservative and expecting to beat Big Time Timmy with clear view shots from the perimeter? :edlover:

 

[Ravin]

Bunch of noise about True North and Atlanta Thrashers deal being done. It isn't done, but it looks like it has a very good chance of getting this done.

If this gets done, this does free up a east spot, as Winnipeg would have to be a west team. So then who moves to the East? Nashville would keep the divisions good, but yet that makes a huge triangle when figure in Washington-Nashville-Florida.

Do you finally move Detroit over and just have Winnpeg take their place? Well that is possible. Would require some moving of the divisions, because the Northeast is a close division, and no on is hugely "south". Detroit in atlantic wouldn't work either.

But what about Columbus. They are east of detroit, so would they not be a better consideration to move?

 

[killgod]

Colombus could work, but Nashville is closest to Carolina/Tampa/Florida so geographically it's the best fit. Washington remains the oddball, but it's the Southeast division...so I don't factor where they are into it.

Nashville is also a stronger fan base and would help bring up Southeast division and could form a good rivalry with the SE.

Columbus requires the Detroit matchup because as far as I understand there's lots of Detroit support out there.
