Hug a Leafs Fan

May 14, 2013 Rob 1 Comment Special Feature

Hug a Leafs fan today. They’ve been through a lot. Yes, I know about Toronto Maple Leafs fans. They’re rude, they’re cocky. They’re all of that. But you know what? So are a lot of Canucks fans. And that’s why I think I feel for the Leafs fans today. They remind me of Canucks fans.

NHL division realignment sounds like a lot of fun

February 27, 2013 Rob 2 Comments Special Feature

The NHL has proposed division realignment for next season and as long as the NHLPA doesn’t decide to block it (again), we will see a fresh new look to the league next season. The new plan is tweaked a bit from the plan we thought we were going to get when it was announced in [...]

Four Reasons Why Rogers Arena is so Quiet

March 16, 2012 Rob 1 Comment Special Feature

Ed Willes wrote a nice little column in the Province today about how Rogers Arena is a quiet place to play hockey right now. This caused quite the ruckus on Twitter after the Team 1040 piggybacked on the article, as they often do. I think every show on the Team 1040 had a poll question [...]

What’s more impressive though, is the fan support from Canuck nation in both games!

October 9, 2009 Binh Ho 11 Comments Bandwagon Douchebaggery

If you’ve been reading from the start, you’ll know that I don’t disagree at all (except for the part about the Sedins whom I heart just fine)! Stop being douchebags, Canucks fans! Stop freaking out over a “poor” 3 game start to the season. NEVER EVER plan a Stanley Cup parade after the 1st round again! Etc.. Sheesh.
