Living in Vancouver I can't wait for the 'Nucks to take it all. It's gonna be a riot.....no pun intended. We just need the Sisters to pick it up a little more and we got it.
Hey A.J im glad you enjoyed last nights game because as a Habs fan that's all you will be enjoying this year

Yea I've heard this same trash talk year after year, but I sleep like a baby at night knowing the playoff collapse is coming. You better believe I'll be enjoying that.

Want to know why Canuck fans are the most hated in the NHL? They have the cockiness of champions fueled by a franchise with none.

Well actually Vancouver has won the Cup before....1915. But it's all good, I'm fine with supporting a team that has the chance of winning the Cup every year, let alone make the playoffs every year.

I honestly do not think we have "cockiness of champions" rather cockiness of winners, something that Montreal hasn't and wont feel for years.

I find it hard to believe that you take more pleasure in a team losing than your own team winning? But when your team is sweeping the basement I guess you need something to look forward to eh?

I never even said Vancouver, I said the Canucks franchise, the team that existed since 1970 in the actual National Hockey League. Bringing up the Millionaires is just embarassing.

The rest of your post is the exact arragonce I was talking about. Congratulations on another successful season, but at the end of the day if someone other than Sedin is raising the cup over their head, you still have nothing to be cocky about.
