EuroTwin 240 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 People who stop in the middle of the sidewalk to talk to their friends and don't get the f*** out of the way. Also, people who insist on walking three or four people wide and don't get out of the way for people walking toward them. Also, Grier and Cory Perry. I hate them sfm for no apparent reason.

Johnny Diamonds 25 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) Chris Pronger (no explanation needed) Jordin Too Too (he's a hack who takes cheap shots, he also has the nerve to wear #22 to match his name, awww how cute %^&*#&.) Ben Guite (just hate his last name, it's like nails on a chalkboard when I hear it.) Any player with an English last name that has a french pronunciation. Example: ROY=WAH, St. Louis= Sane Louie?

GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 For some reason I have disliked Modano in the last couple of seasons. He actually used to be one of my favorite non-Wings for many years before that. I guess nothing has really changed about him, but I just stopped liking the guy.

ComradeWasabi 109 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 The root origin of the names could be debated. I'm sure there's a couple of French names that have become American and are now pronounced incorrectly. It runs both ways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whitneydatsyukrox 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 Jarome Iginla, Mike Grier, Anson Carter. Can't figure out why. LOL!! I actually mostly have players I like for no reason. But I really don't like Tim Thomas, irrationally of course. Something about his headshot just makes me think he should be in the NFL or anything but hockey.

Electrophile 3,554 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) Claude Lemieux. He could cure AIDS, cancer and the common cold in the same day, all while saving puppies and kittens from a burning pet store and I'd STILL think he should burn for eternity in the hottest corner of hell not already taken up by Fascist dictators. I don't care if he's talented, going to the HOF, or has a boatload of awards to his name. He is a vile piece of filth and that will never EVER change.

Broken 16 381 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 (edited) Wayne Gretzky. No, seriously. I've hated him for his entire career. No good reason to hate him either. And it has nothing to do with him being so great. My hatred was on a personal level. How's that for irrational hatred?

Also, people who insist on walking three or four people wide and don't get out of the way for people walking toward them. So true. I have just learned with people walking three people wide or who stop in the middle of the sidewalk to bump into them purposely. Perhaps a little aggressive, but it annoys the s*** out of me. Back to the thread topic, I also hate Getzlaf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vincanni 1 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 Every player in the NHL I dislike I do so for an entirely rational reason. However, I still carry around an irrational dislike for the Colorado Avalanche even though the rivalry is dead, their team is rather lousy, and nothing but classy likable players from the earlier days for the most part remain. Granted my hatred for them has cooled into a meek disliking, but its still there and no matter how much I try to relinquish the thought, I just can't help but root against them. I think I've been classically conditioned to dislike them no matter what largely in part due to a local acquaintance from Colorado who loved them and constantly talked s*** about the Wings, as well as the general attitude that represents the bulk of their fanbase.

sureWhyNot 19 Report post Posted February 25, 2009 Corey Perry -- disliking the guy probably isn't all that irrational given the Ducks/Wings history, but the level of my unadulterated hatred for this guy probably is. I mean if he were on fire and I had an hose -- well I won't even go there. Ian Laperriere - Maybe I shouldn't hate this guy as much as I do but I can't help it. I hate his fighting style, I hate his spot picking, his skating style and I hate the way his face looks (big ass forehead, shaven head, etc). Yup definitely loathe the guy. Steve Ott - Pretty much same reasons I hate Laperriere minus the shaved head. Sheldon Souray - Liked him until the whole wristguardgate came to light. It was mentioned when he got suspended after his fight with McCarty in Calgary -- but when it happened a second time with Craig Weller in Minnesota any respect I had for the guy is gone. You either wear the wrist guard and don't fight, or fight without it -- period. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
