Montreal Fans Unimpressive at World Juniors
December 27th, 2014 The 2015 World Junior hockey tournament is officially off and running, using an unusual schedule that will expand into 2017.

Canucks Stuff Coyotes for Christmas Dinner
December 27th, 2014 There was plenty for Canucks fans to feast on in the last game before Christmas, as Vancouver punished the Coyotes in front of an enthusiastic crowd at Rogers Arena in the last game before Santa's visit.

Taking a day out of our lives to focus on Veterans is the least we can do because without all they have done for us, Hockey and most of what we...
Patience Will Pay Off for Canucks Fans
October 31st, 2014 Canuck supporters have been trying to predict what the team is going to do on the ice in 2014/15 before pre-season even began. The lineup has been scrutinized in every area top to bottom, as though looking for lost Inca gold. There was an almost even split between the naysayers, who had the Canucks somewhere near the bottom of the...
