I dont think you understand hockey around these parts.


tell a red sox fan to change teams during the 86 year slump and he'd throw you in the atlantic.

its insulting to even suggest to cheer for another team. insulting.
- Lee Denault

100%. Amen.

Who is the guy they signed? Any good? Will he play this year?
- systemtool

He's good man. I've been watching him on NCAA satellite since he started playing and Penn State is a good hockey school. I follow him so much. He's could be good like Martin St Louis who was in NCAA too. Keep an eye on him. Basically a free 1st rounder. He is the best FA out of college this year and since Martin St Louis. We are very fortunate to be his suitor. Look to him fill out and play a more prominant role than Martin St Louis does. Both were FAs out of collage.

Agreed. But it still blows lol
- Bigzby

Sure does. but im not about to become a Hurricanes fan.

how douchey is it when you see a guy with a sharks jersey or a stars hat.

you just want to say... you just love trying to get attention dont you bud.

I know it's insulting. I'm a Roughriders fan from Saskatchewan.

Point is that it is a business. Nothing more. Everything else is manufactured to sell the product.

Either you get fed up enough that you cheer for somebody else or stop watching entirely, or you carry on supporting your squad through thick and thin and they get to treat you like poop because it doesn't matter.

Oh, I'm sorry. Didn't realize I was replying to you. My bad.

Be pretty great if he turns out to be decent, you dont get the right to cheer when he scores

Way to Frogren him.

I honestly have no idea what the guy's first name is for christ's sake.

- BINGO!

No owner cares about the fans. They all care about money and their egos. Every fan is a pawn, a money grab, a mark, a stat, a number, a dollar sign, a dollar figure, a sucker, a guy living vicariously through other etc.

Get over it. We control and do nothing to improve or hurt the on ice/field/court etc product. For (frank)s sake, you're a Canes fan where there is zero reason to be.

I had a friend that would constantly jump ship. Kings when Gretzky was traded there. Pens when they won their cups*. I asked why he was a big Pens fan all of a sudden and called him a band wagoner. He replied, "Why do you like the LEafs? Because they are close to where we live?" Ugh.


*Interesting note to some Pens fans that might be reading, Pittsburgh had a hockey team prior to 2005. Not many people know that.

You're acting like im taking this personal.

They arent showing up at my front door kicking my dog in the balls.

They just need to start winning. I'm not going anywhere. but they havent won the fans that are 6--10 years old. who have no idea who Sundin is.

Thats who they should be worried about.

I wasn't meaning you, personally, I was speaking about the fanbase as a whole.

Let's be honest here. If you have kids, and you yourself are a Leafs fan, the kids are by association to their dad, a Leafs fan. It's a cult. Simple as that.

its fine to like more than one team...it just means youre a fan of every team. enjoy your bland hockey watching life.


Used to like Marek. until he said he didnt care who won the WJHC gold medal game this year. he had no rooting interest.

That pisses me off.

Well, yeah?

I mean there is a bit of a difference when an organization is forced to actively market their product and attempt to add and retain fans, as opposed to one where there's an established base that will be there forever.

The aprroach to the actual on ice product probably is the same either way, but one is going to go out of its way to establish a better relationship with its customers than the other is.
