Stanley Cup

[ensquire]

I heard that there was another record set last night in Vancouver.
Emergency wards experienced a 1000% increase in broken ankles from so many fans jumping off the bandwagon.........

Now what do they do with Lou??????

I think it funny how all the Calgary folks are giving Vancouver a hard time. Way to make the playoffs! Calgary... now that is a fan base of band wagon folks.

Your're not a band wagoner when you're born and raised in Calgary. If it was Edmonton in the playoff's I would extend them the same curtsey's that I did Vancouver.

You want to talk band wagon. There was more bandwagon fan's cheering for Vancouver because they are "Canadian" even though there was more Canadian players on the Boston team last year. As well as the Kings have just as many Canadians as the Canucks do this year, 15 a piece if not mistaken. Jump on the Kings band wagon and cheer for Canadian players.

Those that make fun of others loosing and get all giddy about it, are because their teams are even worse losers, so they want everyone to feel the pain.

I think the only other team that would take him would have to be Tampa. They could trade strait across for Lecavalier, he has an ob-seen contract as well. If they never signed him for such a ridiculous contract it would be easier to dump him.

I have respect for him though, he did aid in the gold metal for Canada. I would like to see him stay in Van though. I think Calgary could use Schnieder more lol. So we can dump kipper and Iggy while they're still worth something and start re building.

On a side note. I would also like to see Chicago take the series now, just so Torres has to pay out of his pocket for the hit on Hossa next season. Just my $.02

I agree that Lou has gotten the short end if the stick, not sure who to blame for that though. not a lot of loyalty shown to him when it really wasn't his fault they lost first 2 games.
As for the Flames, they had better start the sale now. They are starting to look like the Oilers of past. Struggling for that last playoff spot and for what. First round exit or middle draft pick. I'm an Oiler fan and cheer for ABC (anybody But Calgary) but the longer they hold on to aging assets, the longer the rebuild will take.
