Welcome to the NHL from a Caps fan. May you not have to wait 44 years to hoist a Stanley Cup, but in the event you do, it will will be worth it. Good luck!

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Welcome!

 

[End on a Hinote]

This Canucks fan just added the first Canucks game in Seattle to their bucket list!

Welcome Seattle, go Nucks and Whitecaps!

 

[Canucks LB]

[Riposte!]

The I-5/BC 99 rivalry is going to be real. I'm extremely excited to be able to go to road games in Vancouver (and have my Kings come to town 3 times a season).

Thanks. Kind of know what that’s like. We waited 38 years to hoist the Lombardi trophy. Had a blast going to a championship parade in my city, for my team, even though it was only 19 degrees.

I cannot wait for the Seattle NHL team!

 

[pettersson]

f*** you, Seattle!



Jk, I'm just getting ready!!
Welcome guys super excited about this. Vancouver needs a good rivalry. Also, a team that understands the travel pain.


Cheers to the next many years we hate eachother!

 

[JuniorNelson]

Meh.

 

[Elias GOATtersson]

woohoo

 

[puckpilot]

Seattle cheered for the Canucks, so I'll cheer for Seattle in return, except when they're playing Vancouver. Here's to many years to come in the I5 rivalry.

Please don't win a cup before us. Pleeeeeeease.

 

[Lindgren]

Congratulations to Seattle hockey fans! Yes!

So, who does Seattle take from Vancouver in the expansion draft?

 

[EpochLink]

The I-5 rivalry is finally here.

OK, we have to do some fan scouting here. Best Steak joint in Vancouver, Best Sports Bar in Vancouver, and Best place for a Gut Bomb.

I'm sure the players will love to be able to sleep in their own beds after a road game! (I'm making an assumption here)

where is the new seattle stadium going to be exactly? an easy out to i5 north or south of town?

The new arena is the old arena Key Arena in Seattle Center.

It's easy enough to get out of town once you hit I5.

Beast Steak: Black and Blue
Best Sports Bar: Bells and Whistles
Best place for a gut bomb: The American

 

[Steely Van]

I hope Seattle gets a basketball team soon. Some cities have both pro teams play at the same venue the same day. Vancouver road trip. Seahawks nhl and nba triple header.

 

[Bougieman]

Really hoping that Seattle/Vancouver becomes one of the great rivalries in hockey. The more exciting hockey to watch, the better

 

[Bitz and Bites]

Congrats and welcome,it's gonna be fun to have another team in the PNW and I'll be rooting for you guys to have a competitive team so we can have a great rivalry like the Battle of Alberta.

 

[Westcoastsniper]

Welcome! Will definitely be driving down to see a game.

 

[carolinacanuck]
