You may not believe it, but there is indeed a....
Downside to the Vancouver Canucks
As is apparent from the oldskool refs., this list was written during the arse end of the glory days. There are prolly many more to add, but I stopped watching the Nucks after they ditched Cliffy.
- Dorks who cheer for the Canucks when theyíre winning and for the other team when
theyíre losing.
- People who try to do a Jyrki Lumme impression and it sounds just like the Swedish
Chef.
- People who say, "Look at Pavelís lipstick!"
- Snide comments concerning the big ëVí sweaters.
- Having perfectly good goals disallowed because someone had their skate a millimetre
in the crease.
- Lack of synchronization.
- The playing of hockey music that just does not belong at a hockey game.
- Players who donít seem to realize that putting their arms up to signal innocence in
knocking someone down, only draw more attention to themselves.
- Tradage of Brian Glynn.
- Tradage of Tim Hunter.
- Tradage and subsequent demotion of Kay Whitmore.
- Those who think that just because Kay never got to play, then he must have been a
bad player. I donít think so people!!! He rocked!
- The bitter sting of being one goal away from the Cup.
- People who pronounce it "Canooks".
- Those new (ugly) red uniforms.
- When people say Jyrki's name in "I made up a new dance, it's called the Jyrki Lumme!"
- Anyone who complains that they "can't use up their season tickets".
- The whole Orca thing. The old spaghetti skate logo ruled! Hell no, we won't blow!
- The dissolution of the Canucks I knew and loved!!!
