OT: Famous Canucks fans

[Free Edler]

I think that Old Spice dude was wearing a Canucks shirt once too. Better add him to the list.

The Game

Wrong guy. The Game? Biggest ****** I've ever met. Seriously.
And he grabs his junk about twice per second.

I believe she is. CDC interviewed her somewhat recently, IIRC.

Scherbatsky is a Canucks obsessed Canadian on the show and popular belief is Smulders is merely a fictitious Canucks fan with no real knowledge of the defending Presidents' Trophy winners.

Wrong.

What we have here is perhaps the truest case of art imitating life.

“I’m a Canucks fan alright, growing up I loved and was obsessed with Pavel Bure, like crazy,†laughed Smulders, talking with Canucks.com.

Pretty sure a lot of these people pictured with Canucks gear are not exactly fans...just entertainers who were doing a concert at Rogers Arena or somewhere in Vancouver and wore a Canucks jersey to hype up the audience.

Many however, are real Canuck fans. Anyone mention Terell Safadi yet?


''Black red yellow, that's my team, old school way before the blue n green'' -- Uhh Terell, Canucks first colours ever were blue n green. LOL

I used my uncle's seat in '88 and Loverboy's drummer 3 seats up had season tickets. He was screaming pretty wild when we won. Is he still famous?

I've seen Brian Adams at games but he lives in London now.

Who was that guy that wore a Bertuzzi shirt under his MLB Uniform when he won the World Series?

edit: wait - why is Nate Robinson wearing a Whalers hat as well?

I was going to say that he drowned, but Google tells me that that was the bass player, not the drummer.

You're thinking of Andrew Castell, this guy:

And what's really sad is that according to this article, written during the 2011 finals, he stopped being a fan of the team during the Keenan era and never came back.

That's actually kind of sad.

I think Castell has recently returned to following the Canucks.

He has a Twitter page, and most of his recent tweets are about various memorabilia and the endeavors of the current Canucks squad. He took note of one instance a few months ago when Jim Hughson called Willie Desjardins "Coach Mitchell." That means he's watching.

Jim Treliving might have been a Canucks fan at one point.



I'm sure he's a Flames fan now.

 

[Fat Tony]

I'm sure he's a Flames fan now.

I'm a fan of anyone who gives me a paycheque. I'm funny that way.

 

[Domecile]

To be fair, Manny is his bro-in-law

They're divorced now, correct?

Funny how things can change so quickly.

What is this true?

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Pretty sure the Sedins are Canuck fans. They seem pretty famous.

 

[Domecile]

What is this true?

Brain fart on my part. I was thinking of Nash's relationship with his wife, not his sisters.

 

[corker]

Kate Upton and William H Macy were at a Canucks Flames playoff game I went too... of course being there doesn't necessarily mean you are a fan, but Kate especially seemed to be cheering pretty hard. (It was a game we won... I think game 5...)

 

[TARS]

Pretty sure the Sedins are Canuck fans. They seem pretty famous.

Yeah maybe in Sweden. That hardly counts.

But Deadpool is a Canucks fan so we pretty much win if this is a competition.

Seth Rogen is not a Canucks fan.



In fact, he hates hockey.

Same is true of Ryan Reynolds. He actually joked about being kicked out of the Country because he hates hockey.

 

[Nuckles]

Red shirt guy is a Canucks fan.

 

[PetterssonSimp]

Where is the love for Wyatt "The Stanchion" Arndt? Canucks blogger. Gotta be famous for just the beard!

 

[y2kcanucks]

Red shirt guy is a Canucks fan.

Become famous now I suppose.

Doing the Fake Canucks Season with him was fun. Towards the end, though, work got busy and things slowed down a bit. Then the real season began.


I'll never forget this game.



We all watched the live stream of the full game. There was no way to script that thing. It was messed up.

[Shareefruck]

This. Celebrities, more notably rappers, will wear NHL gear because they like the logo, or the colors. Anyone famous that shows at a Canucks game likely just wants to be seen at a game because the Canucks are "cool" right now.

The Canucks aren't "cool" right now at all. Why would they be?

 

[McNucker13]

I wondered the same thing, until I realized that his post is from back in 2013.
