but what's wrong with being a canucks fan boy tho? he's an alumni who played there for many years. its the same way on ESPN - Wayne cheers for the Oilers, Hank cheers for the Rangers etc. Messier cheers for both Oilers and Rangers.

NBA on TNT - Shaq cheers for the Lakers... I mean all this stuff is pretty common and I think authentic. Personally, I like it.

I think maybe in the US because alumni associations are a way bigger deal like college etc. its kinda like a lifetime gig.
