This is a hockey forum. I don't get why they're so uptight about other teams.

I think a lot of it has to do with irrational hatred.
You see posters like Landshark and nhmen post stuff about their teams and people don't flip out. But a thread about the Canucks gets SO much hate.
Unfortunately Blaster, I think guys like you and Mayer, who are generally quality posters will have to continue to censor yourselves and just let the insults and trolling not bother you.
I think it is even hard for you guys to discuss the Flames without getting attacked by a certain segment of posters.
My only advice, which I'm sure you've heard a million times, is to ignore the dinks and just discuss/respond to people that want to have good hockey related discussions.
Personally I'd love to see a thread on the Canucks and have frequent updates about what you guys are happy with and disappointed with as the season progresses. If it turns out that I think some of you guys are bang on and honest, some of you guys are total pessimist and that others are total homers, then that is fine because I already deal that with Flames posters and ignore the people I think are out to lunch.
The biggest problem would be preventing such a thread from turning into a constant trollfest and pissing match and get locked because the idiots ruin it for the people that want to hear about their rival.
FTR, I HATE the nucks. Like hate them so much I probably couldn't date a chick that was a diehard Nucks fan. Nevertheless, as long as you aren't here to just cause trouble (which I know you aren't), I'd love to hear more opinions from people who watch more than the 10-20 Canucks games that I choose to watch.
