  1. Leaving a comment so I can return to this post later when the comments section has been populated

  2. Why is Messier so hated in the comments? Signed an ignorant Leafs fan who doesn’t know the deats.

  3. Somewhat new hockey fan, grew up in NY but live in CO now. All I know about Messier is he won the stanley cup on the Rangers. Had no idea he has won it 6x or that he invites such ire from the hockey community.

    But fuck Messier I guess?

  4. Still the only player to captain 2 different teams to the Stanley Cup! Greatest captain ever.

  5. Ah yes, the Vancouver Canucks. A team destined to never win anything but claim they’re incredible. I’m sure the team’s downfall was purely due to Messier…

    🙄

  6. The whole we’re going to win games 6 and 7 is so stupid. What did you expect him to say, series is over there’s no point in playing anymore? Dumbest piece of revered hockey lore.

  7. I’ve been a lifelong Canucks fan and Messier fan. I was pumped as a kid when he joined the Canucks…what a disappointment that era was. He’s still one of my all time favourites in spite of that bad era in Canucks history.
