That is just a dumb opinion - the 2010-11 Canucks were one of the best teams in the league. Sure they dove and had some pretty repugnant antics, but they were also a great hockey team. Ultimately they couldn't win when it counted but there isn't a modern hockey team that could dive their way to a Stanley Cup final.
