If Ottawa Loses, Canada Has No Representatives In The NHL Playoffs

[PhillyFlyers]

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

The country that gave the world the sport of Hockey must now bear it's ultimate shame.

No chance for a Canadian team to win the Stanley Cup.

and if ottawa loses every single flyers fan will be pooping (just a lil bit) in their pants....
man, why do you gotta poke the bees nest like this?
ive been around here for a few years now and come june you might just get stung.
but then again the flyers will win the stanley cup-just like all those other times, riiight?

This thread has nothing to do with the Flyers so I don't know wtf you're talking about.

[Robber]

Ultimate sham e would be no teams I playoffs at all

Canada rarely wins the cup anyway

[William Walters]

Dwight & Dennis will be here shortly to tell us about the Canadian players on the U.S. based teams.

[High3rEl3m3nt]

The only time I root for Canada-anything is when they're playing Russia.

[mynameismud]

plenty of canadian players left...i guess canadians can find solace in that.

[muldoon]

Looking for the threads where the Pens went deep into the playoffs and PhillyFlyers was cheering on the remaining Pennsylvania reps in the playoffs.

Will report back, shouldn't take long.....

[nammertl]

there may not be any Canadian teams left but flyers wouldn't even be in the playoffs without a few Canadian players.

come to think of it, the flyers are practically a canadian team.

[DennisGreen]

Dwight & Dennis will be here shortly to tell us about the Canadian players on the U.S. based teams.

Good call Walters. I will be back with a full report of % of Canadians per remaining teams when I get a chance to do some research

[DennisGreen]

If the Blue Jays won the world series again I wouldn't say Canada won the world series. Why are Americans so dense about shit like this?

[lunchbawks]

lmao canadian teams haven't won the cup forever.

go troll somewhere else philly flyers

I can never tell if people like this are trying to be sh** disturbers or are just genuinely dumb. Just given your avatar let's take Philly as an example. Briere, Giroux, Hartnell, Read, Schenn, Simmonds, Talbot etc etc etc Ad Nauseum. They're all Canadian...a "Canadian" team not making it doesn't reflect anything about Canada...The only time it's international is during Olympics or world championships, and given that we beat the states in the gold medal game, I think we've done anything but "fallen". Enjoy your Canadian team in the states sir

[JerseyRobby]

These types of threads just show how stupid the American hockey fan is kind like when they boo the Canadian anthem at games while a majority of their players are from Canada.

[PhillyFlyers]

Don't understand why some posters are so stupid.

This is about the fact that Canada has only 1 representative left in the entire playoffs.

They are on the verge of being eliminated.

This has nothing to do with the canadian players on the Flyers or any other team for that matter.

This is about national pride.

Surely, canadians can understand that.

NHL teams could not have less to do with national pride. Surely, Americans can understand that.
Maybe when I was 8 I cared if a Canadian team won it...but now, understanding that it means absolutely nothing nationalistically, I dont.

Rangers in 5

[DennisGreen]

Time to educate you silly Yanks.

Playoff Teams Remaining
BOS 18 Canadians / 5 Americans (64.3% / 17.8%)
FLA 18 Canadians / 2 Americans (66.7% / 7.4%)
LA 15 Canadians / 8 Americans (57.7% / 30.8%)
NAS 12 Canadians / 8 Americans (46.2% / 19.2%)
NJ 7 Canadians / 7 Americans (28% / 28% )
NYR 10 Canadians / 9 Americans (38.5% / 34.6%)
OTT 13 Canadians / 5 Americans (44.8% / 17.2%)
PHI 14 Canadians / 2 Americans (48.3% / 6.9%)
PHO 19 Canadians / 3 Americans (67.9% / 10.7%)
STL 19 Canadians / 6 Americans (63.3% / 20%)
WAS 14 Canadians / 4 Americans (51.9% / 14.8%)

The closest thing to "America" winning the cup would be the Devils or Rangers winning the cup. Anyone else and Canada wins.

14 Canadians, 2 Americans on the Flyers. Huh wouldn't you know If the Flyers win the cup it's because of Canada. You are simply a spectator in an American market.

How proud are you as an American that your team's best player is Canadian? Or many if not most of the starters are Canadian?

[High3rEl3m3nt]

With all due respect to the board's Canadians--I consider you guys cousins, Americans want American teams to win it all. We're are freakish competitive. When the Blue Jays won, who I was rooting for, the majority of Americans didn't want a Canadian located team to win it all. I was labeled a turncoat by fellow 5th graders at the time. Same thing goes for hockey, soccer, etc. When the U.S. played Canada in the Olympics, people who didn't know the slightest thing about hockey, were going mad for U.S men's team. What a game that was by the way...loved it. Same with soccer. We don't have a prayer, but guys who know nothing about the players will paint themselves red, white, and blue and show up in numbers--they can be heard asking why the game is ending in a draw? Or they'll be in disgust that a player is purposely killing clock. For us, winning and being number one is a matter of national pride. Who gives a damn about the details. Just letting you into the mind of a typcal American.

Very actually.

You think I don't like Canada or Canadians?

I love Canada.

[Deuce]

Without Canada hockey would be shit. That goes for the EU as well.

[DennisGreen]

We love you too America

Good to know you guys will nuke anyone who fcuks with us North America FTW.

[High3rEl3m3nt]

Whenever I'm abroad, Europeans always mistaken me for Canadian. What does that mean? I didn't know Canadians had a strong look.

Again you are showing your stupidity most Canadian teams are huge rivals and actually do not want their rival win the cup. Do your ******* homework dipshit.

Yes, I understand that.

Works that way in most sports asshole.

Canada vs Canada until it's Canada vs. another country.

Unless you look like this

hahahah...love that show. Lived in the Pacific Northwest...not sure if that factors in.

[Powerz]

Personally I think Philly Flyer raises a good point - even though he is going about the wrong way.

I am embarassed that only 2 teams made the PO's - and team propped up by the league is still in.

WTF - Toronto, Montreal, Calgary - Get your shit together you are all Have teams meaning you make money and prop those sick sisters down south up. Yes I am talking to you NYI, tbay, fla , dallas, phx, CBJ, Car, Minn, Col. Yet you can't even assemble enough talent to make the PO's. I fully expect Winnipeg to make it next year and Edmonton may as well be relegated to the AHL.

I think it is crime that poor fans in Toronto for all their support have not had the PO's for 7 years that is brutal. Richie Tannebuan should arrested for some sort criminal act why being CEO of the leafs

National Pride?? Isn't that what the olympics are about, what happened there, on our soil and yours haha? Are you truly that stupid? 7 out of 30 teams in the league are Canadian, do you not understand math or statistics for that matter. You are single handedly making me wanna root against Philly. I hope your not truly that dense, but you are American so I can't be too sure.

Yes, national pride.

Canada is the home of Hockey.

Ask a Canadian if they think that not having one Canadian team capable can win the Cup is ok.

Pride.
