Totally agree with BB's comments. As a staunch supporter of the Canucks, I, like the majority of Canuck fans feel there's always a chance that Vancouver has a good chance of success because of whose on the team and the way they play but I doubt anyone would bet the farm they will win the Cup. However, their chances in a 30 team league appear to be better than most of the teams. Put it this way I'd rather cheer for a team that can win its dividion than one who is at the bottom of the heap most years in theirs.
Also, when the Canucks play poorly I have no problem calling a spade a spade which from what I've seen in this town is the norm. We're not blind and we don't hide our feelings. And just because we tend to give them crap every now and then when things don't go our way doesn't mean we've taken a single step off the band wagon. Of course, I'm only speaking of the tried and true fans who follow the team day in and day out.
