The Great Canadian 2011-2012 NHL season discussion thread

[thurmas]

Good to see Little back in the Jets lineup team played with great speed last night. If Jets can play close to .500 on the road and dominate like they do at home winning 70% of the time we should be a playoff team. Just hope Buff isn't gaining weight while out injured!

Ya, my posting style is a lot like me in life. I don't sugar coat anything. I call it like I see it. It might come out abrupt, it might blatant

But its not trolling.

I'm even this harsh on my favorite team who is sucking major ball sack right now. Another lottery pick from this team, especially with RHN, Eberle and Whitney out.

As for the Jets? They are doing better than I thought they would. Good on them.

Welcome back home Halak...

If I hear idiots booing him Tuesday, I'll personally go and punch them in the face.

Even if its completely wrong (Jets never coming back eh)

But I very much agree with feepa here. Calling him a troll is stupid, he contributes a lot to this thread, to NHL threads, and he's just discussing. Its just feepa. He's a good poster. I've never seen him do things that are troll worthy such as flame baiting, bash minorities or posting certain types of pictures, sure he might disagree and argue but don't we all?

His POV on the Nucks might not be 100% accurate, in the eyes of Nucks fans, but he's not trolling; i.e. instigating then leaving discussion.

Come on guys...back to hockey...


Jets with 20 wins. Suh-weet. I think they're doing better than everyone (including many Jets fans) thought they would

Schneider is from the Boston area, and quite frankly, it was a relief to see Schneider play pretty well in a high pressure game like that. Everybody knows Luongo is psychologically fragile, so its important to have a good, mentally tough option besides Luongo going into the play-offs. Of course the organization is not going to tell everybody they`re worried about Luongo in the play-offs, that would be dumb.

Way to be objective. Sure there`s always a chance that Vancouver or Boston could get upset in the 1st round, but the odds are strongly against it.

Getting a high draft pick year after year starts to get embarrassing for the Oilers organization. 6 straight years missing the play-offs. Tambellini needs to be replaced with someone who can do more than just sit there and collect high draft picks. I can do that.

I hope for your sake that`s not true.

Canuck fans are definitely a minority.

If you can't figure out why people think you're a troll, well then, you're delusional.

Let me help you out here, feepa. You're a troll not because you pick out the negatives of individual players on the Canucks, you're a troll because of the way you bash the fans. The shit you spew about us IS trolling, especially when the fans on SSP are knowledgeable and pretty chilled out.

Your shit is way past tired and really lame.

So can i call the fans of other hockey teams douches like feepa? I think it was more those comments that have annoyed the Canuck fans

[bulliver]

feepa, how many goddam times to I have to explain this to you? I don't care if you trash the team, and I've not the slightest bit of interest in arguing with you about it. I think the standings put an end to any debate there anyway.

My issue, as always, is your repeated posts about how stupid the fans are. I don't give a shit if some Canucks fans act stupid over at some superfan hockey forum you hang out at. Leave that shit over there...it has nothing to do with this site or this thread. There are quite a few Canucks fans here...and we are all very reasonable people. When you continuously call us stupid, then yes, that is trolling.

Get it?

And seriously mods, why do you let him repeatedly spew that shit? I can say "Oilers fans are the douchiest in league" with impunity then? Is that right? Then why can feepa?

Are you saying he shouldn't be allowed to speak the truth ?!?

Flames fans got continually slammed here for no reason at all, and the only reason the poster got banned was that he was doing a lot worse things. Leaf fans get bashed throughout the entirety of the Internet. Habs fans also get a lot of punishment. They may whine about it, but they don't get together as an organized contingent and play the victim card because ONE of them gets banned (for unrelated reasons).

I swear, there's some fairly thin skin going on here. feepa is a pompous ass with little tact (takes one to know one) and I disagree with him on a great many things, but a troll he is not.

[Nicko999]

Erik Cole has more goals and about the same number of pts as Brad Richards.

I didn't know we signed the big fish of the summer.

What I find funny is that he's having a career year playing with Desharnais as his center (and with Pacioretty). This small guy was never drafted because of his size. He played with Chicoutimi in the Q (Carbonneau is the owner of the team) and Carbo told the management when he was head coach to sign him. It's finally paying off, thanks Carbo.

really? You can't take a little light-hearted jabbing at your precious team? I've mentioned the fans in one or two posts, and since then, you've repeated it about 5-10 times. Grow up. Since your such a cry baby and in the spirit of moving this thread forward, I'll refrain from mentioning your canucks, and the effects it has on the Vancouver region again.

[feepa]

How about those Oilers? 2 more pts better than last year. Tambo will likely now keep his job for years.

[Flamesrule]

Ouch, Stall and Neal could be out for "weeks", I heard. Bad for Pittsburgh.

The reason I love hockey: Chicago and Detoit third period and overtime.

[SHOFEAR]

I cant believe Canuck fans can't grasp that far far far less of their fan base grew up playing hockey or grew up not even at all exposed to hockey...They aren't nearly as intelligent on average as average Edmonton or Flamer fan and it becomes all to easy for this large number of uneducated bandwagon jumpers to taint those who have a grasp on things. Accept it.

Awesome Shaughnessy Article

Playing the Vancouver Canucks is like playing a collection of A-Rods or a full squad of Bill Laimbeers. The defending NHL Western Conference champions are a virtual conga line of Claude Lemieuxes and Ulf Samuelssons.

They are posers and floppers, arrogant and cowardly. It’s hard to believe Cam Neely ever wore their sweater. Beating them up is just so much fun, and flipping one of them butt-over-tea kettle sweetens the day. But you can’t put them on the power play 11 times or they will make you pay.

In that case Oilers and Flames fans should shut the bleep up and all hockey talk should remain between Habs and Leaf fans.
You're not the brightest one in here are you?

One thing I agree with, is Alain V's comment on coach Juilen's protection with Marchand....that hit on Sammy Salo was stupid stupid stupid.

I love the Bruins, and their rough style of play (many people dont) but that was one stupid f'n hit.

I wouldn't say many people don't, in fact the only noise I hear comes from two Canadian teams (who somehow happen to be the most spineless in the league, not exactly the "Canadian" way), closest to each of the coasts, and their loud and numerous media outlets (BC's only team, and Quebec's only team so go figure) who happen to go on about things... forever.

I remember when the Flames used to play physical and be hard to play against. Oh, those were the days. Now we're almost as tinkerbell-like as the Canucks and Habs.

Maybe the Canadian teams are becoming more like the average Canadian...
