Crap, you had to go and say it.

Ignoring silly superstition does not show lack of respect. It shows reasonability

This is hilarious. By saying the word shutout in a game that's not even played right now is disrespect to hockey? Nice.

The Caps might be sluggish lately, but the Flames will have to make sure to not take them lightly. All it takes is one bad shift and the flood gates will open against them.

haha, this talk about jinxing our keeper is nonsense. Oh hockey gods, take pity on us, we didn't mean to upset you but can you please give Elliott the power to get a shutout tonight? Thank you.

The Caps travelled after their game last night. Hopefully the Flames can not take them lightly and catch them a little weary.

It makes sense for players to follow superstitions, they're a superstitious bunch and I'm fine with that. Sportscasters want to include themselves in that, alright, fine.

But extending that to fans, and furthermore, bashing anyone that doesn't follow that same superstition, is stupid. Typing shutout on a forum has zero implications, and isn't disrespectful.

I love that guy, but #### that guy lol.
I seriously doubt it since he has played against the Flames only once or twice a season for his entire career.
