Old but reminder that Canucks fans openly admit to being bandwagon fans.

A City of Vancouver survey found that more than half of Vancouverites–55 per cent–says they like the Canucks only when they’re winning, reinforcing the notion that Vancouver hockey fans are among the most fickle in the NHL.

Lol. When you've just spilled tamper-speak, it's best not to follow it up with calling it tampering.

Looks like it's time for another rebuild in VAN.

Now we just need McDavid to break up with the Oilers.

However, I’m not sure it’s a great quality in the top executive of a professional sports team.
Yes.. especially the bigotry-laced rants. Sweet old people. So endearing.

It is, as long as you're not hateful but so many situations would be better if people spoke their mind more

Some things should be kept private, but people certainly can speak their minds more often that they choose/risk to.

The ratio of small to real talk nowadays is depressing.

Somehow all three of the Hughes will end up in Tampa on seemingly cheap contracts

Fans calling for a parade in Abbotsford. Pretty funny. Not sure if any City has done for that for an AHL team win?

Which Canadian team was the last to win a Calder cup before Abbotsford? I could see Canadian cities wanting a parade especially if their NHL team was Canadian as well. American AHL cities don't give a F I'm sure

Nothing wrong with that IMO. The AHL is in fact one of the best leagues in the world (arguably the 2nd best) and winning the Calder cup isn't easy.

Would they bus in miscreants or are Abbotsford people angry enough to riot on their own?

No mention of Kane signing in this thread? Doesn’t it define this thread?

Lol. How old are these people. They all look 40+.

The dancing is just as bad as the music. I imagine a group of soccer parents organizing dance routines in a garage after their kids' soccer practice.

The people with empathy and self-discretion were allowing for a brief mourning period for those of us who have been affected by this horrible tragedy.


In true Goriders fashion you once again show you're an awful person and added to the plethora of reasons with this post. I hope you step barefoot on a pinecone.
