A Canucks fan's perspective on the Blackhawks Stanley Cup win

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo!
In case you are wondering what that is, it's Chelsea Dagger by the Fratellis (AKA the Blackhawks goal song) - an appropriate song for this morning, in light of the Hawks Stanley Cup win last night. So the Frat-house on Madison has its Cup. I'm happy in a way for guys like Jonathan Toews, Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook. Patrick Kane? Not so much.
After the jump, what I consider to be the pros and cons of the Blackhawks win - from a Canucks fan's perspective.
Well, at least we lost to the eventual Cup winner, right? So losing in the Second Round is not so bad when you gave the Cup champions a tough, 6-game series which, in many ways, they were lucky to win, right?
Plus the Hawks' offensive outburst against the Pronger-led defense of the Flyers kinda makes our blue-line look not as bad, right? Am I right folks?
Okay, this is ringing a little hollow.Let's move on.
Why I am pissed the Blackhawks won
I hate the Blackhawks.
It's the product of back-to-back, bitterly contested Second Round series.
It's the product of so many punks - Patrick Kane, Ben Eager, Andrew Ladd, etc. - being on one roster.
It's the fact that this team is so talented and opportunistic that, despite their immaturity, they can be dominated for 50 minutes before breaking out and winning the game.
It's the fact that I honestly think the Canucks are a better team this season than the Blackhawks - but they weren't able to beat them. That is really, really frustrating.
Verdict
So yeah, I am not too thrilled about Chicago winning the Cup. There's some very likeable players on the team (I especially like Toews and Keith) but they're more than offset by the punks. But there you have it - the Chicago Blackhawks are your 2010 Stanley Cup Championships.
But hey, we'll see 'em in the Second Round next year, right? And third time's the charm, right? Am I right folks?
Let's freakin' hope so.

third times a charm
Our defence let us down, we have plenty of scoring but we need to improve the back-end but Gillis will have the money to do so with Demetra’s 4 million and Mitchells 3.5 off the books.
Chicago has cap problems and will not be able to keep their solid supporting cast together. More worried about teams like LA Kings and Colorado in the next few years. Even ST. Louis has lots of upside. Calgary, Detroit and San Jose are on the decline.
CBC softened me up to Byfuglien with that feature on being raised by a single-mother working 2 jobs so he could play hockey… or something like that. So I dislike him less now… but yeah, I’m not a fan.

I feel the same way. He was basically the “black sheep” (no pun), and the butt of many jokes, during his early career, so considering all those adversities, he is all right. No reason to hate him at all. As to being in the goalie’s face, that was part of his job, and he made the most of it.

Burrows scored
35 goals in the regular season. I think their work ethics are slightly different.

He's actually my favorite player in hockey.
He’s tough and he does what he does very well. Nobody on Vancouver could even touch him. It was pathetic.

More proof
that adam burish is the biggest douchebag in the history of hockey. I don’t like pronger much either, but geez…u just won the stanley cup, no need to be a total jackass. This prick gives hockey a bad name. If it was before the game, ok bring the head games. But post game? I hope u do see him on the street and take a swing adam…you’d get your weaselly ass pummeled.

from a hawks perspective
he was asked what he thought of pronger, who is by far the a way bigger douche bag. How about you look in the mirror, Alex Burrows, has talent, but shows no balls on the ice, being softer than puppy crap, has a shield THEN precedes to play like an absolute punk. From hair pulling to hits from behind, im sorry, he is a joke compared to burish.

I think they are both the same type of agitating player except Burish is a fuckwit when a mic is in front of him, and Burrows can actually play offence, while Burish is a better fighter. Oh, and Pronger set Burish straight today, rather well.

I am glad it's over.
I am really looking ahead to the next season with anticipation.
Last year was exciting, but the coming season should be something very special, because now we know what the team needs to be able to go all the way. There should be no excuse, this time around.

And:

It’s the fact that this team is so talented and opportunistic that, despite their immaturity, they can be dominated for 50 minutes before breaking out and winning the game.
This. Seriously. At least Canucks fans can take some solace in the fact that your team actually won a couple of games against the Hawks. My Sharks pretty much dominated them for three of the four games they played, and still managed to get swept.
I am so freaking bitter, right now.
Didn’t see much of the Sharks series, as I was taking some time to nurse my end-of-season hangover and ease my bitterness, but I heard that this was about as undeserving sweep as possible.
The Hawks have an unbelievable opportunism that is so, so, so frustrating. The Canucks have had a few games over the past two playoffs where they controlled the game for almost the whole time, only to make one mistake and see it in the back of their net.

Sorry but there is no such thing
as an undeserved sweep. All that matters is who wins the games. Not who played the best. Winners win games and losers, sorry that’s us and Sharks fans right now, talk about how good they played. The Hawks won all 4 games in that series by hook or by crook it doesn’t matter. They won the games.

Had a similar argument yesterday
Me: Pisses me off that they won, wish it had at least gone 7 games.
Hubby: Well, at least in a way, we were the second best team since they had a tougher time against us than anyone else.
Me: No, we’re not in the finals, so we’re not second best.
Hubby: Well, I don’t think it was Philly or San Jose, Chicago played pretty well against them, so I’d say we were the second best team.
Me: Who really cares, it’s the playoffs. There is no second best. They won the Cup. Everyone else sucks.
Hubby: Yeah, I guess. Shit you’re bitter.

So what do you do for next season? Give an offer sheet to Hjalmarsson or Staal? You do it right, you’ll only have to give up a second round pick:
Current Averaged Salary Draft Pick Compensation
$994,433 and below No compensation
$994,434 to $1,506,716 Third-round pick
$1,506,717 to $3,013,434 Second-round pick
$3,013,435 to $4,520,150 First- and third-round pick
$4,520,151 to $6,026,867 First-, second-, and third-round pick
$6,026,868 to $7,533,584 Two first-round picks and a second- and third-round pick
$7,533,585 and above Four first-round picks
I've always been a Blackhawks fan.
My dad’s been a lifer and I’ve grown up cheering for them second behind Vancouver. It’s not really a rivalry when one team dominates. Chicago has routinely made the Canucks and especially Luongo look very, very bad. It happens.
I’d say the amount of hate that exists on both sides between the players makes it a rivalry. And I’d hardly call two 4-2 series wins dominating. But yeah, the Hawks more than any other team I can think of are superb at making teams look bad – if you have a weakness they will exploit it.

How?
They have one goal scorer and no one to get him the puck, a decent D with an over rated Phaneuf anchoring it and a washed up old goalie who is past his best. I don’t think they get near the playoffs. Carolina will be better, Tampa will be better, the Rangers, Flyers and Canadiens will all make strong pushes to be in the playoffs again next year. Who misses out?

although i had been rooting for the flyers the whole series, i was somehow indifferent about whether or not the blackhawks could win it last night. in fact, i was actually somehow hoping they would win the game last night. it was weird.

I was cheering for them. I’d hate to see Philly win. The Blackhawks earned their victory by beating tough teams and doing it in convincing fashion. You can say Philly did well to come back 3-0 against the Bruins but they still lost 3 times to the Bruins. They wouldn’t have come back 3-0 against the Pens or the Caps.

I like how he’s completely ignoring the reporters saying “Come here” to his buddies and is all offended when a dude makes a crack about taking a cab home tonight.
Any respect I had for him is now gone.
See you next year, Mullet-Boy.
Going to church makes you a Christian just as much as standing in a garage makes you a car.
That was just a moment in the celebrations for Kane and he probably just drank half a can of beer and was drunk. He was celebrating with his team as well.
Fuck the reporters! They were all over him the whole time and Kane was basically asked about “growing up” since the cab incident probably over 100 times. Why should he answer those questions over and over again in his moment of triumph? That reporter had it coming for that joke he pulled.
Aside from that, I still wish somebody wiped his carcass all over the glass during these playoffs, but it rarely happened.

It's pretty simple
If you don’t want someone to ask you about something stupid you did, then don’t bring it up yourself first.
Speaking of Kane, why isn’t there an option for A and C on the poll?
Who cares?
When you score the game winning goal in overtime to win the Stanley Cup, you can celebrate however you want and with whoever you want. So what if he wanted to see his friends after already having celebrated all night with his team?
I agree 100%
I have no idea why anyone would think this makes Kane a punk or a douche. The Fort St John Flyers won a National Championship a couple weeks ago, the Allan Cup, and there were friends, family and former teammates every where for the celebrations. You want to have as many people who mean something to you as possible. To me this smells of people who already didn’t like Kane trying to find more reasons to dislike him. If they liked him it would be all positive about how he hasn’t lost touch with this roots blah blah blah. He just won the cup. He can celebrate however he wants. If I won the cup I would want my buddies there with me too both my buddies from the team and not from the team.

It's almost uncanny
so for those of you who don’t live in vancouver, there’s a TV channel here called Encore Avenue. Dunno if everyone else gets it on their cable somewhere or not. So anyways, that channel plays movies, uncut and no commercials. Sometimes the movies are good, sometimes really really bad. Tonite I was flipping thru and they had some ‘C’ grade rodney dangerfield movie called ladybugs. Basically Rodney is asked to coach a girls soccer team, and they’re so bad he recruits his girlfriends son to put on a wig and play. How do I know this? Well cuz I watched it. Why did I watch it? Cuz the girlfriends son is a familiar face. Unfortunately I couldn’t find a pic from that particular movie where the resemblance was stronger than these two pics, but… Item number one, the actor:

Dangle a mouthguard or burish’s dick from his mouth, give him a worse hair (er…a worse mullet than the one he has) and you get item number two, the familiar face:

your comment here makes me laugh out loud….after all this time that passed Nucks fans still think they are a better team, that is a joke right?? do nucks fans and their players really smoke up before they make dumb ass comments like that. because the entire league laughs at you when statements like that are made…the best one statement that summed it all up as the dumbest ,was you so called captain saying after game 6 that he at lest did not let in 7 goals..the guy should have been cut that moment by the nucks for making your whole orginzation sound sooo idiotic. But after seeing the classless fans that Vancouver has it didn’t suprise me. But look at it this way. you guys are not alone in the dumbass bracket you are now joined with the Flyers and their classless fans and team.

The Canucks didn’t measure up to the Hawks much at all really. The only team that did strangely was Nashville, who stuck to their game plan for that whole series. The Canucks were inconsistent and all over the place. And madhouse is correct that Lou is an ass, or at least acted like one. BTW, calling Pronger the biggest idiot in hockey is pure class too isn’t it madhouse? Look in the mirror.

I think the Canucks measured very well to the Hawks. The only thing that killed your squad was playing an undisciplined game and not killing penalties worth a damn. Otherwise, we could have had a different outcome.
so yeah, next year looks good for you all. If it ain’t the Hawks, let it be your team.

The Islanders went from Marty McInnis and a 2nd Overall pick to Jesse Joensuu.
