STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS 2009-10 Topic

Washington and SJ and Vancouver are all classic choke teams.  They will never win ****.  Boston won't repeat most likely.  The team I think is the fave early on is the Kings.  The Hawks are as good as any of them and if you don't see it, go watch tiddley-winks because you've missed the boat on hockey.

Washington and SJ.....LOL!!

In 2011/2012 Just like in 1967, the Leafs will be better than 5 other teams???

Problem is that NOW the NHL has 30 teams, so being better than 5 other teams = NO STANLEY CUP ( like it did for the LAFS in 1967)  Now being better than only 5 teams = a high draft pick!!!.....Assuming the LEAFS don;t trade the pick for a hasbeen.....lol

Jonathan Toews is chosen over Steven Stamkos in TSN's Franchise Faceoff...let the "elite" debate begin anew! lol

To be fair, Crosby wiped the floor with Toews in the "Bonus round" voting.

I guess TSN doesn't know **** about hockey.
It was a fan vote. Put stamkos on a large market team and the results are different.

Cmon moy...now you're making excuses for Stammer...I don't think anyone thinks any less of his 40+ goals or 90+ points because he plays in Tampa. I think the reason he lost is that people weren't very impressed with his first playoff performance.
I don't think I've ever met a real live lightning fan... have you? I'm pretty sure hawks fans are found all over the country.... and in Canada like yourself. And yes, with a fan vote fan favorites tend to win. A lot of hawks fans I know didn't even know who stamkos was until I told them. I honestly didn't even know who bryzgalov was until fa this season.... Phoenix gets no media out here and the flyers might play them once a year. Toews is on the cover of NHL 10. Big difference in media coverage.

Jersey sales between Toews and stamkos must be night and day.

Dont make the mistake of comparing hockey media coverage in the US and Canada. trust me moy, every single canadian hockey fan, no matter who they cheer for, knows who steven stamkos is and how good he is, and it's very likely the majority of voters on tsn.ca are in fact, canadian.

Never said there wasn't fan bias, but I don't see how Canadian hockey fans would be biased towards one Canadian star or the other. Heck, people in this country were up in arms when Stammer wasn't selected to Team Canada.
