as much as i'd like the canucks to beat the hawks 1st round, i'd be happier to see the hawks miss the playoffs entirely |

Yes, have to put feelings aside. Dallas is a better option, less travel, less bad blood (which should make for a less painful series) and quite simply, in my humble opinion, a much easier opponent. Posted via RS Mobile |

Hawks only create storylines. Dallas would create the Story that we kicked their candy asses in the regular season and once again do it in the post season
BUT...
The Canucks are the top team in teh league. Teams should be shitting their pants playing us. This years President Trophy team in the NHL is special because of the PURE DOMINATION in the stat columns compared to the other teams.
Storylines sell ratings. Sells the product. I only care for the result
call me stubborn on this one.
*edit* Charl Schwartzel wins the Masters...That name is funny, the headlines will be great haha

just imagine the confidence/momentum they'll carry into the next rounds if the canucks beat the defending stanley cup champs who eliminated them two years in a row

If we play the hawks and smash them, then it's all good. Lose again and they'll be calling us their bitch until they retire. I'd take the safer route and go with Dallas.

I can't decide who I want, Stars or Hawks.
I want Stars to win so we can "seemingly" have a easier round 1.
But at the same time I really wanna get over the hump that is the Hawks and it'll be BEYOND satisfying to finally beat them.
BUT, I don't want to Hawk's because if we lose to them FOR THE 3RD STRAIGHT YEAR, I will feel shame and embarrassment and be annoyed to hear everyone talking bout how the Canucks can't beat the Hawks for an entire year.
Sooo Stars...safe route. Hawks....high risk high reward.
Hmmm...

People have to stop saying "if we don't beat ____ we don't deserve the cup". If we lose to anyone, we won't win it, so its a pretty stupid statement. Posted via RS Mobile |

I'm watching the wild feed and they aren't even calling the game. They're just interviewing some guy? Lol it's retarded. It's like they don't even care about the game Posted via RS Mobile |

Cheering for Dallas to lose this one... I like hearing Chelsea's dagger, kinda catchy. J/k
I don't care who it is in the first round, just glad its not Anaheim or Preds... I hate those guys

No matter what route taken, easy or hard.
It's the motherfucking Stanley Cup for Christ's sake. I think some of us have forgotten how rare it is to get to it, let alone win it.
"It don't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning's winning."
Also, no one, especially players on the team cares how they win it. They could win the cup by a phantom call by a ref or the other team accidentally scoring on themselves.
Anyone that has been on any sports team thinks this way. I sure did. Playing on beer hockey leagues I didn't care how we won, as long as we won.

Posted via RS Mobile | it's not that they have to beat certain teams or they don't deserve the cup... any hockey fans would love to see a more intense series between rivals rather than the "safer" route to win the cup
for me it doesn't matter who we face, I think the canucks has a chance to crush them all regardless of if it's dallas (who the canucks owned in the regular season) or the hawks (defending champs who eliminated canucks 2 yrs in a row).. i just think they would be more pumped up if they do end up facing the hawks 1st round. this would be better for the whole team mentally as well in the later rounds
oh anybody got the white towel waving smiley?
