Why are the Ducks of Anaheim so hated on Hockey's Future?

[Mr Fahrenheit]

That last few minutes of the game was disgraceful

 

[Coffey]

Guess what?

Your team is on pace for as many playoff wins than the team that didn't make the playoffs.

Grats!

Classic Ducks. Can't beat'em... Injure'em.

I still cannot fathom how the OP can call Getzlaf likeable. Any help??

Look how adorable he is when kicking a stick.

 

[Seanaconda]

Wouldn't you be sad if you forgot how to skate?

Noone forgets how to skate they either get injured and have to learn how to skate differently or you get out of shape.

I dont even like perry but thats just silly. Legs are so easy to destroy

 

[Terry Yake]

lol @ oilers fans

 

[Viqsi]

Huh? We aren't counting "Love" from the fanbase because every team gets that. The Leafs hate BY FAR is #1. Just read any Leaf thread. That game thread last night was unbelievable.
It's really odd fans can't even admit the Leafs get hate.

It's because the go-to defense for the Leafs lunatic fringe about absolutely anything they have to say is "you're just a hater" and going on and on about how they're so hated and they're so victimized and so on and so forth. They've cried wolf too often.

Perry was never a good skater and that was identified when he was drafted. I know he "didn't forget to skate" I am just having fun chirping with that Oilers fan.

That's fair . He's lost something but it wasn't forgetting how to skate

It’s funny. The more you post, the more you validate the OP’s post.

On topic, I don’t think the Ducks are the most hate team. With that said, they do get more hate than I think is warranted.

 

[Hockeyholic]

People hate on Getzlaf because he's a hall of fame player on a rival. Jealousy.

Division rivals HOF/Potential HOF
Kings: Doughty, Kopitar
Oilers: McDavid. Drai idk.
Sharks: Thornton, Marleau
Coyotes: Idk if Doan would be inducted
Knights: Too Early
Canucks: Hank n Dank

I dont see any reason for any team in the division to be jealous of the ducks because Getzlaf is a future HOF player.
Move out west and watch more games, you'd figure this out already.

Ducks on average go 1/4 or 25% caveman on the ducks cavemen scale™ on a game by game basis, lowkey dirty so when it happens to your team you think "meh its whatever".

Ducks went an astounding 4/4 or 100% last night and people see why they are the cavemen like team we think they are. Gross performance last night.

 

[DJJones]

Only reason they aren't more hated is because they are in California. Move the exact team to buffalo area and the eastern conference would freak out.

Dirtiest team by far and they've been that way for as long as I can remember

 

[Bigboi123]

Because they are a dirty team through and through. They do have some likable skill players in Rakell, Kase, Lindholm and Montour.

Every post you make is a salt-fest about the Ducks. It's equal parts sad and funny.

I am not even convinced he is a future hall of famer. As of right now he wouldn't be and he turns 33 next month. I don't think he has any awards other than 1 cup ring. He still has work to do.

 

[PositiveCashFlow]

I don't hate the Ducks, it's just I want someone to beat the ** out of Kesler every time I see them play

I was trying to be fair giving his weird post a tiny shred of credibility and I agree with you that I should't have.

 

[Mallard]

Because they are a dirty team through and through. They do have some likable skill players in Rakell, Kase, Lindholm and Montour.

Some likeable/non-dirty? What about Fowler, Gibson, Silfverberg, Manson, Cogliano, Grant, Brown, Beauchemin, Pettersen, Vermette, Henrique? I would even say Bieksa is not dirty even though he is hated for whatever reason.

Between your list and the additions that should be there there really isn't much dirt apart from Perry, Kesler, and Getzlaf apparently.

 

[Perfect_Drug]

Why would Getzlaf be in the HHOF?

Cuz he was a secondary player on the Pronger-Selanne-Niedermeyer cup?

Getzlaf is a good player, but he's not Hall of fame worthy.

 

[MapleLeafistan]

I have.

We have indeed. Lol.

 

[SoundAndFury]

Between your list and the additions that should be there there really isn't much dirt apart from Perry, Kesler, and Getzlaf apparently.

And yet those happen to be a face of the franchise. Also you can name 10 players who are nice and all but anyone who saw the ending of game 3 knows how the team as a whole behaves. Just because there are some guys who are an exception to that doesn't change the general impression.

Why would Getzlaf be in the HHOF?

Because he is 0.95 PPG in his NHL career which is 8th among active players?

Hall of very good.

No hardware/passenger on a cup with 3x first ballot HOFers.


Btw his PPG will go down with age.
