The media and everyone always says things like, everyone hates the Canucks etc... But, I have never really seen that.
The only thing i've noticed is a lot of people chirping me about the Canucks and Vancouver. But, it isn't like they hate the Canucks they just chirp because that's what sports fans do. I mean, I give it to the flames/leafs fans over here just as much.
The only consensus overe here is that the sedins are little girls, burrows is a cheap ass who just chirps and doesn't fight, and luongo is a head case. Other than that, I don't really hear much else. Don't we say the exact same things about other players on other teams?

I completely agree. Most of the friends I have have made here in Toronto cheered for the Canucks last year and said they will cheer for them this year.
I really think it is the MEDIA who likes to create these "Canada's most hated team" articles based on a very vocal minority who like to troll around the internet.
Hell, I walked into a Starbucks yesterday wearing a Canucks t-shirt and I got my bill wiped clean cause the staff were Canucks fans (and they were tired of cheering for the Leafs).
