I have always been an Oilers fan.

I cheered for Ottawa vs. Anaheim
I cheered for Calgary vs. Tampa Bay
I cheered for the Leafs to knock out the Bruins.
I generally cheer for the Habs as I live in MTL.

...and I could not even believe myself and was even myself surprised...when I cheered for Brad Marchand and Milan Lucic, players I do not support AT ALL...to knock out the Canucks.

I know I am not alone when I say I dislike the Canucks because of their fans and the way their organization lacks the professionalism of the other teams. It is absolutely NOT because they win...which they have done in the regular season, no doubting that.

Dont even waste your time, its not even worth it man

No, the Leafs are actually worse odds for winning the cup this year than the Canucks.
- JLO961

What else is new? The Leafs have always been among the leagues worst odds to win a Cup since the league had more than 6 teams.

Perhaps I don't find them as entertaining as you...
- Whiskey-Tango

That stands to reason... your rapier wit could be sharpened with a marshmallow

The sad thing is you actually think you are smart. You are on an internet hockey site trolling and spouting crap. Congrats you loser.

...and again. Keep it up, you're making yourself look really good. (thanks for the compliment, I am pretty smart actually).

only one of those statements has the possibility of being correct. I'm fairly sure Toronto is ahead of Vancouver on most "favorites" gambling sites. Canucks do not have a very deep prospect pool (says a Flames fan)

but yeah.. Lou will probably start.

first one I found....makes you wrong.

Honestly and sincerely not trying to be a smartass here, but "worse odds" means more likely to win. At least that's what I meant by it.

Did you even read what you replied too?

he did not.

I really don't care how I look. Just done with your poop.

Right, cause the entire league currently covets big DD and "please don't touch me"Markov...
DD=Bad player, dum contract, no thanks.
Markov= already had a version of him in Salo in which we never re-signed.

I definitly see Van-Mtl as good trading partners but why would we trade a good player for two plugs who's combined cost, is what? Ten million????

- Whiskey-Tango

i did say not sure it would get it done. If I were to offer something, I would change DD for Bourque. I can see Markov as a fit in Vancouver. He came out strong last year even after dreadful injuries. Knees looks just fine and the guy still has one of the best 1st pass in the league. He see's the play very well and is a threat on PP. I honestly think he doesn't deserve all the hate towards him and is still pretty valuable.

keep looking... I said "most" sites... not "all".

I quickly checked about 6 or 7 and Toronto was ahead of Vancouver on.. 5 or 6.

You mean these last playoffs when they were winning 3-1 in game 7 in the third period?
I remember that too.

so here is the link

If you take the Canucks to win you get $1600 on a $100 bet.
If you take the Leafs to win you get $1500 on a $100 bet, therefore worse odds.

Explain yourself ScoobyDoo

That was a tragic loss...
- Flyfreaky

We were all pretty shaken up about it. The entire hockey world was sad to see it end that way. Just hate to see that happen to a good guy like Dion Phaneuf.
