That's up to the fucking league to get better fucking refs, reviewing plays, and fining people for doing this....

My point is, if everyone else is doing it, then we might as well jump on it too, and get damn fucking good at it...

not like this fucking shit...

Sharks played better bottom line, but damn, Canucks have a reputation around the league and the refs, this series validate that.

It's ridiculous when the ref 5 feet away who saw the hit clearly makes no call...and the clown 60 feet down the ice decides to call it.

Mike Oxbig 05-07-2013 10:11 PM

Sedins are elite play makers and we can't / don't score because our butt hurt GM Gillis hasn't brought in a top line winger for the value of schneids or luu playing moneyball... which he is so famously known for.

Sedins don't do the dirty work but they can put up points. When they get shut down, secondary scoring are suppose to chip in but they don't. Why is it the sedins to blame? It's not their fault. Gillis traded hodgson because of some butt hurt reasons too.

higgins for 2.5 for 4yrs is still a mistake.

This happens constantly. Should go back to 1 ref, I'd rather have missed calls than too many unnecessary ones.

I think that's putting the horse before the cart. The reason why the Nucks have so many difficulties with the refs is because they already have a reputation for embellishing and faking in order to gain an advantage. If they were to turn it up a notch and fake even more, it'd backfire, big time.

Euro's are pussies they are brought in specifically for their skill sets which north americans does not have, not their hard nose play and heart. If your a true Canadian you should know this. It's a fact.
Are you surprised or something?

They have a reputation for embellishing and faking in order to gain an advantage because they were fucking horrible at it....

Let me post this shit again for you:

Uhhhh, Ulf Samuelsson?

Just one more example of the inconsistency in the reffing in the NHL, last complaint, I swear.. This is a HUGE, bone-crushing hit - yet of course it's clean, especially in the playoffs. From Cal Clutterbuck, repeat offender no less.


If you watch this, then the Daniel Sedin penalty, it's an absolute joke. Inconsistency is in every series, not just ours, and it honestly makes me not want to follow the NHL.

Anyone see AV's post game conference? He was in tears. Pretty sure he knows it's the end for him in VAN.

So you approve of those things?

If it won games then I wouldn't give a fuck

did you see malkin today? that guy plays with intensity and does not back down. ovi is another guy that plays tough hard-nosed hockey when he's not taking days off. the super skills they possess puts them in elite status but don't question their ability to play hard-nosed hockey with canadians.

I actually thought they stopped the play cause he was hurt, not cause they were gonna call a penalty

Anyone else FB populating with "If you're hating the canucks you're not a fan/bandwagonner, etc"

Geez. The city supports the team through tickets and merch. We're essentially stockholders to to this team/company and we demand better roi. If you want to blindly "believe in blue" and just have faith, join a religion, where God always wins.

I was thinking the 12/13 thread might have the smallest post count due to the lockout and now this short playoffs. Season is still going for some of us though.
