BOO BOO.

Vancouver will make the playoffs every year and always leave in the second or third round just so another Canadian team with the appropriate genitals and/or bodily organs to take the Cup doesn't make the cut.

Or maybe even the first round! ;)

...though probably not, San Jose doesn't exactly seem the greatest this year. :p

Nah, second or third, depending on the goaltending. It's what we like to do! Get your hopes up for an all-Canadian final as one of the Eastern teams tends to really turn it on during the post-season, then dash all of those hopes miserably.

They better hope both goalies are up to snuff because last night..... lol. I know I know, it was a meaningless game, but ouch.

NO ONE THROWS THEM LIKE THE BEST.

In all honesty though Vancouver is so bad at scoring that once a team gets up by two point the forwards just give up, the defense collapses, and everyone somehow hopes our amazing has been goaltending will win the day.

One of the reasons the Leafs didn't do well the last couple of seasons was because we didn't have any decent goaltenders. Belfour was way too old ffs why did you even sign him on? I have feelings about this!

Sorry to hijack the thread. I can't help but have a naggy feeling that there aren't any all-Canadian finals because it won't be as good for the American marketing companies.

Oh man, as a Canucks fan I know all your feels about bad goaltending. Luongo was once great, but now he's decent, and while a decent goalie is nothing to sneeze at, he's still getting paid like a great goalie.

Oh ho! A ratings conspiracy theorist. My dad is also one of you. He's also been right every time (i.e. there hasn't been an all-Canadian final, even when it really looked like there was going to be). But is that because Canadian teams are so outnumbered and it's statistically unlikely to happen, or because Americans really wouldn't watch it?

Would they watch it if Vancouver promised to riot again?

I know! Leafs had a tendency to sign aging players and goalies and pay them as like they were still at the top of their game. Wtf right? Use the money to sign some prospects instead and develop them. Aging players will only get worse as time passes. They're not good investments!

There were only three all-Canadian NHL finals in the last 50 years - 67, 86 and 89. Maybe it's because the Canadian teams sucked, maybe it's because Americans wouldn't watch it. Who knows? coughCONSPIRACYcough

I think some people watched for the riot...
