When it comes to hockey, Canadian fans more than any other it seems, take losing personally and it doesn't take much for the insults and personal attacks to start flying. Calgary is not as bad as some other Canadian markets mind you, as at least here the media doesn't usually pile on as badly.

Why are hockey players such shrinking violets? Nobody ever has a problem taking money from the Flyers, is anyone really going to sit here and say the Philly media is harder to deal with than Wes Gilbertson and Darren Haynes?
