FUCK YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!You took the playoffs for granted all fucking year, and you lazy sacks of shit couldn't wrap up the easiest division in the whole league. We all knew that Buffalo, after losing Drury and Briere, weren't going past the first round (at best). But you guys were talking Eastern Conference Champions all season long. Well now you can't talk shit all off-season cause the Canes couldn't pull it together either. Ya'll come back with a work ethic ya hear?]

from a hurricanes fanto all buffalo fansplease note our stanley cupand the fact that your playoff spot wasn't yours to squander in the last game of the seasonas misery loves company, i can think of no one more miserable than a buffalo fan to comfort us during this dreadful time, so thanks for coming by

Work ethic? This team worked their asses off to even get into a position to contend for it at the end. Injuries should never be an excuse, but they figure in here. We didnt lose our key guys due to shitty managemnt, we lost them because of torn ligaments and broken bones. I guess you didnt watch many canes games though, so you wouldnt understand that. 377 man games lost, lost our captain, top line RW, key PK/energy man, among many other things. Our team, composed at times with up to 6-7 AHL call-ups still managed to finish better than your bag of shit team.You couldnt wait though, could you? You didn't have shit to say all season because your shitty team from your shitty city wasnt worth a fuck. I'm glad this makes you feel better.

How do you know that? Do you have a flux-capacitor powered delorean and a magic what-if scenario changer?The Canes have a ring because our team whooped ass all reg season, beat Montreal, NJ, Buffalo, and Edmonton. Buffalo did not complete the playoffs successfully.[Edited on April 5, 2008 at 9:04 PM. Reason : maybe we should just give our rings to buffalo because they were hurt.]
4/5/2008 9:02:30 PM
Correct me if I'm wrong but Buffalo won the President's trophy last year for the best team in the regular season. Then you went this year and couldn't even make the playoffs. The last team to do that was the Rangers back in the early 90's. But you're right, our not making the playoffs was the bigger disappointment

As an avid Sabres/Bills fan, I do not support this thread. Plz don't think we are all this ignorant.[Edited on April 5, 2008 at 9:15 PM. Reason : I do enjoy not seeing the Hurricanes in the playoffs though. We have no grounds to talk shit tho.]
4/5/2008 9:12:28 PM
I am just saying that this team far exceeded expectations given our injuries. Buffalo did a good job in the playoffs despite their injuries. I did not expect to make the playoffs this year once Brind'Amour went down, but we sucked it up and played hard and almost slipped in. Buffalo sure used their injuries as an excuse, why is it off-limits here?
4/5/2008 9:21:54 PM
Because you go out of your way to say "injuries should never be an excuse" then proceed to pretty much use your injuries as an excuse.
4/5/2008 9:23:23 PM
Personally, I don't think injuries should be an excuse for any team. It's part of the game, everyone suffers them. Some may be more devastating then others but you just have to overcome them and continue to play your game.
4/5/2008 9:25:34 PM
well, it is one thing to have a guy go down here and there and have an average season in terms of man-games lost, and quite a different to lose nearly 400 man-games. Carolina set a franchise record this year. Stacked odds from about December/January on, and this d-bag thinks he has room to talk shit. I don't think too many people were calling for a SCF appearance after November
4/5/2008 9:27:37 PM
I think if anything the Canes should be commended on how well they played with the number of man games lost. Not using it as an excuse, but to show just how well they responded to them. They may have come up short in the end, but they did exactly what a team must after suffering the number of injuries they did: continue to play solid hockey, which overall I believe they did.
4/5/2008 9:32:17 PM
^a better way to state how i was feeling, haha. well said. no more fussing for me in this one, I think no matter what Carolina comes out on top. We didn't even need the cup for that either, we are from Raleigh, they are from one of the shittiest cities in North America.
4/5/2008 9:34:58 PM
4/5/2008 9:38:18 PM
^even worse city

im not even a hockey fan but i know that carolina beat buffalo the year they won the stanley cup

Gotta love those classy Buffalo fans. Not too bright of a bunch are they? Talking trash to us after the year they had. But I guess you can't expect much out of folks who only get 3 weeks of sunshine a year.
4/5/2008 9:54:09 PM
Whoa that thread is nearly a year old and I never did get around to pointing out the fact that Buffalo had 7,000 people in the stands through a good part of the 90's and was nearly relocated. But, don't worry. Their fans *aren't* fairweather.
4/5/2008 9:57:38 PM
attn: "hockey doesn't have fans" people Shut the hell up and stay out of this thread or you might get suspended
4/5/2008 10:05:02 PM
^ nice
4/5/2008 10:06:37 PM
I don't think we ever took the playoffs for granted..we got overtaken by an amazing Washington team and they still barely passed us when they played out of their minds. Both teams deserved to go to the playoffs
4/5/2008 10:07:19 PM
Once again, not supporting this thread but Sabres fans are not fairweather. Most that is.
4/5/2008 10:08:07 PM
I would have loved to have both the Caps and the Canes make the playoffs and eventually play each other. What a great matchup that would've been
4/5/2008 10:09:03 PM
4/5/2008 10:29:27 PM
typical buffalo fan. same shitty teams, different year.just get up and move to Canada already. at least then you can pull for the Blue Jays in your sports off season every year between April and September.

Boy, after losing Briere and Drury, your $10 million cap hit could have gone to much better places than this guy:Then again, maybe 64 points IS worth 10mil. who knows? At least the Oilers didn't get him. lol. The real reason the Panthers won is Lindy called up Jacques and told him that the Canes had champagne in the locker room.
4/6/2008 11:33:00 AM
Stein you're a fucking idiot. That's part of being a cup contender, staying health as long as you can. You act like Carolina was a 100% healthy team and no one played through injuries. You're such a tool.
4/6/2008 11:40:57 AM
the only bad thing about the 'canes losing is no more Hurricanes Specials at the bars...
4/6/2008 12:19:29 PM
To all Carolina Fans, From Chicago fans:Hey, at least you don't play in the same division as a president's cup contender every single year

I can't say I support this thread, but the way all my favorite teams did this past season ('season' being august - april, I despise baseball), I feel like a buffalo fan. All kinds of chokejobs, inflated expectations, and a general lack of winning.I'm going to go back to my childhood favorites, the Boston Celtics, mainly for something to do. Because they are green. [Edited on April 6, 2008 at 3:48 PM. Reason : .]
4/6/2008 3:47:39 PM
You know, if any of you are looking for a team from New York to root for in the playoffs, there's still one available... [Edited on April 6, 2008 at 4:03 PM. Reason : .]
4/6/2008 4:02:48 PM
I'm pulling for the Pens now. They were my favorite team growing up but slowly became my second favorite after the Whalers moved
4/6/2008 4:10:10 PM
^^I would be a lot more likely to pull for the Penguins than the Rangers. It's a lot closer and I really hope that Crosby can bring some attention back to the NHL. Plus pulling for Drury would make me sad
