[ (probably a very illogical feeling but likely a natural reaction)
I can't speak for everyone else but your reaction is a bit whiny. Do I hate the Canucks? Yes. In the same way I hate every team the Wings are playing against. Another Hockey (Sharks) fan and I were talking yesterday, We must have said the other persons team sucked several times when other people asked why. We both said Hockey is the only sport where you can talk like that to each other all game long then go have a beer together after the final buzzer. So seriously when someone says they hate your team whoever they are, don't cry. Join in then offer to buy the next round. This aint the giants and dogers and nobody's getting stabbed outside the arena after all.
