Hey Canada.....Stanley Cup Playoffs are coming...

**packerd_00** · 03-31-16, 01:33 PM

Canada cant even get into the NHL playoffs,that is f@ckin embarrassing.

**USCPHILLYGUY** · 03-31-16, 01:35 PM

Just read that 1s time since 1970 (then only 2 canadian teams) won't be a team from canada in playoffs

**BIGDAY** · 03-31-16, 01:45 PM

**Seaweed** · 03-31-16, 01:45 PM

Fuk off Opie doopie

Best player is Canadian and plays on Pittsburgh

This is not the world cup

Canadian players dominate the game

**Seaweed** · 03-31-16, 01:46 PM

Tim Hortons is good but overrated

I will give you that

Country Style better

**Russian Rocket** · 03-31-16, 01:49 PM

Opie you do realize that Canadians do make up the majority of the league’s players though, right? We're talking close to 50% Canadians vs about 24% US born players.

**packerd_00** · 03-31-16, 01:50 PM

You must be ashamed Weeder,eight teams and you cant get one of them in the playoffs,come on know.

**lakerboy** · 03-31-16, 01:53 PM

Opie which canadian player will be handed the Stanley Cup trophy by American Gary Bettman?

Of course. But there's no fun in that fact.

Zero Canadian teams in the NHL playoffs….now THAT"S FUN!!!!!

**lakerboy** · 03-31-16, 01:56 PM

Opie maybe it will be canadian born Jamie Benn of the stars or maybe Tyler Seguin from my hometown.

**opie1988** · 03-31-16, 01:58 PM

Jesus. Certainly didn't mean to get everyone riled up.

Tell you what, to make it up to the guys I've offended….I'll give 100-1 odds that my Dallas Stars make it farther in the NHL playoffs than ANY CANADIAN TEAM

Fukk it…make it a MILLION TO ONE

**CanuckG** · 03-31-16, 02:01 PM

I love it. Even if Ottawa squeaked in they would of gotten buried. Go Hawks

**packerd_00** · 03-31-16, 02:03 PM

Hawks own this league,if they didn't have to keep selling off their players to stay under the cap.

So let's say for arguments sake I take your offer. My only condition is that dallas must win one round. Getting further would constitute one round complete since you said in the playoffs not getting in.

Playing one playoff game will suffice.

I'm trying to build goodwill between the countries here.

**Seaweed** · 03-31-16, 02:25 PM

Opie watch yourself

You are jinxing Dallas

Opie's favorite team has almost as many Americans as Russians...this is truly remarkable

**jjgold** · 03-31-16, 03:07 PM

It is strange how Canadian hockey teams have slipped and I do not know why

I would love a team for Russia to play in the NHL they would be the best

**packerd_00** · 03-31-16, 03:11 PM

Is Brian Leetch a native hero down in Texas Opie.

**Mike Huntertz** · 03-31-16, 03:31 PM

The American players on the Canadian teams dropped the ball and played like shit ass idiots.

Other than the Jets every other Canadian team didn't get screwed by Americans.

**xKMACKx** · 03-31-16, 04:48 PM

haha all in good fun though, I would pull for an American team to beat a couple Canadian teams in the playoffs anyway.

**opie1988** · 03-31-16, 04:48 PM

Lord Stanley's Cup not allowed to cross the border this year.

Hockey is the USA's greatest pastime.

**daneblazer** · 03-31-16, 04:49 PM

Wow that's like a Canadian team not making the CFL playoffs

Tim Hortons

Canada in general

I'm guessing someone is still sore over Game 5 of the ALDS...
