How can anyone cheer for a team with Cal Clutterbuck on it?

I really really really really really really don't like him or Matt Martin

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

I hate no hockey nights.

Joey with the great pass to James Neal! Preds up 1-0

What the hell are you talking about?

Sorry, there are very few match ups in which I can support the Preds, the Ducks aren't one of those match ups. Go Ducks! :p

I didn't really care who won the Florida/Isle match up. I don't mind the Islanders as they are the red head step child of NY, plus Tavares is simply awesome. In round two, I'd love to see the Stars lose and I'm for the Sharks no matter who they end up playing.

So Caps/Isle/Blues/Sharks would be my preference for the final 4.

For me less about wanting to see Stars lose, rather wanting to see the Blues win. I am hoping to see Hitch have one last hoorah.

He's on a 24 hour delay? In life?

Why does everyone hate Clutterbuck?

 

[Hipster Letestu]

Why does everyone hate Clutterbuck?

Because he's a piece of crap. He makes borderline hits all the time but refuses to answer for them.

Why does everyone hate Clutterbuck?

I think this article from a few years back encapsulates it well.

He's like Corey Perry without the scoring talent (the one redeemable thing about Perry, imo). Both have histories of cheap play, but running away from actually putting themselves on the line. I can also add to my opinion on Perry, if necessary.

EDIT: Here's something else with more evidence.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Because he's a piece of crap.

This should suffice.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Right on cue, Cizikas knocks someone off the ice

Oh, not Clutterbuck. Cizikas did kill a man though

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Congrats nashville

 

[WannabeFinn]

Seattle Thunderbirds (Kolesar's team) just outshot the Kelowna Rockets 76-32. Jesus.

 

[Viqsi]

Congrats nashville

Sorry, STBC, but the Sharks have to go down now. I'm sure you understand.

1)no

2)why?

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Joey willed the Preds out of that round!

 

[DarkandStormy]

Joey willed the Preds out of that round!

Wut?

 

[JohnnyJacket13]

Joey willed the Preds out of that round!

Uhhh no he didn't? I'd say it was more of Josi and Weber being animals and Rinne playing a great game 7

 

[DarkandStormy]

Johansen set career playoff lows both for shifts (19) and TOI (15:09) in game 7.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Settle down, everyone. 'Twas a joke
