Those of you regularly read Puck Daddy are no doubt familiar with its regular "Five Reasons [blank] Loves Hockey" feature, in which a notable hockey personality lists the five biggest reasons for their passion for the sport. I have thought for some time now that a modified version of this feature could make a cool addition to Nucks Misconduct, as we have at this blog a diverse range of fans of different ages, genders, home-towns and backgrounds - each with their own reasons for cheering for the Vancouver Canucks, and each part of the broader fan community that is this blog.
I for one am very interested to learn more about why and how you all have come to be fans, and so my hope is that "Five Reasons I Love the Canucks" can become a semi-regular feature at Nucks Misconduct, a feature in which you have the opportunity to share your diehard passion with your fellow community-members. I will kick things off tomorrow with the inaugural "Five Reasons...", and some of the other regulars will likely chip in with their lists in the coming weeks.
If you would like to participate and submit your own list, please email it (along with any appropriate accompanying pictures) to Sean or Yankee, whose emails are listed at the bottom of the site. Please remember to be respectful and show at least a reasonable amount of human decency - other than that, use your creativity and draw on your own unique experiences to make your list. I hope you all are interested in participating and that you enjoy this feature!

Awesome idea.
I bet there are a lot of diverse stories from any canucks fan that reads this blog. Even people like me, the guy that rarely posts yet reads each and every day, has his/own unique circumstances for following and loving this team, be it the 1994 playoff run, Trevor Linden or those little mini donuts they sell at GM Placve Rogers Arena. Your sure to get lots of emails sean/yankee.
Glad you guys like the idea! I’ll be excited if people get into it, I really enjoy hearing how people came to be fans of the team and the things that they remember best about it. I am just finishing up my first post, and will get it up tomorrow AM. Hopefully will see your guys’ lists up there in the near future!

Just email them mate, they’ll probably post ’em through to the start of the season, or beyond depending on how many they get.

why email them when i could post it myself? i am a fellow writer, after all :P
however, i’m sure sean or yankee would control the frequency of when they get posted, so if they just send me a scheduled day to post, that would be cool.

Yeah I know, I mentioned in our little group email chain a week or so ago that the regulars can just post their own… feel free to jump in there whenever you feel so inclined.

that’s why emailing is the best route so we can paste them into the editor and then schedule them all on different days. Just a thought. I’m referring to those who are not editors.

That’s what I tried to tell Missy, but she won’t listen. Drunk with power, that one. You and Yankee have created a monster, Zandberg.

i don’t have as much trouble with sarcasm when talking to other people in person, i just have trouble detecting it online sometimes.
and it’s “souvenir”.

Here’s a good rule of thumb: If the statement made is ridiculously implausible, humorously nasty, or completely over the top odd, it’s sarcasm. Or yoata.
