This is just ignorant. I live right next to the Pig and Duke and watch lots of hockey there, and yes there are always tables full of Canucks fans for Vancouver games. I have never seen any altercations or noticed any commotion about it. No one is being obnoxious. I was there during one of the playoff games last year and there were some obvious loud cheers and Louuuuu-ing, but nothing you wouldn't expect in a bar during a Flames playoff game.
It's a Canucks bar is because the owner of the bar is a big Canucks fan - the bar's hockey club is the Pig and Nuck club, they have giveaways for trips to see the Canucks in various cities, advertised in giant letting on the eight foot tall blackboard next to the bar. Why would you resent another team's fan base from having a friendly bar to go watch hockey in?
