The predators are trying to copy everything Detroit Red Wings do. They really do admire Detroit. M.Erat said... I hope Detroit wins the cup this year.
best fans in the league your dead wrong you wont find better fans than wings fans lets look back to last year when they were on the road 4 games in phx it was like 4 home games how many teams can say that
Preds fans throw catfish on the ice to mock the Red Wings. Anyone who doesn't think Nashville is a hockey town should actually go to a game. Best fans in the league. And fried catfish is a pretty common dish in the south.
who cares about who's better? we get the crowd pumped when we throw shit on the ice and the players love it too!! we're still the only fans who have the balls to crotch an octopus or a catfish in our pants and i dont see any pittsburgh or caps fans doing it
That's so stupid. Gary Bettman just needs to resign already. How the hell is waving an octopus around gonna make the fans go nuts & start a riot. Taking all the fun out of going to a game. Soon there's gonna be no skating & hitting. Might as well be golf if they're gonna fuck with every little thing.
BTW, I like to smoke, say what I want and mean, and watch Al throw dead octopi. If liberals don't like it, they can find a communist country to move to.
Dude this Octapi been around since 1952, So why stop it now I think it not right me and my dad been a season ticket holder for the Detroit Red wings since 1990 and I seen alot of Octpai Throwing on the ice. So what wrong with it.
It causes crime, social problems, and makes people thump their stereos with racist and sexist noise. It's a "deep" cause to get involved with. Or so these elitist snobs without a real life think so.
Okay mao2meow, it's a 56-year tradition. You're just pissed that your team didn't come up with it. And you're pissed your team isn't as good as the Wings. Gary Bettman is just a sorry ass who needs to go. Bring on the fine because you aren't going to break Tradition. I also love how you didn't say anything about Nashville throwing their BS catfish, Wannabes of the true Hockeytown, Detroit. One other thing, the Octopus tradition started long before Michigan's economy started suffering, dumbass!!
Throwing a dead animal on the ice is ridiculous and cruel. There is no place for it in the NHL. Let's end this moronic tradition. Fine that guy that swings it around AND assess the Red Wings a penalty if a fan throws it on the ice!
You again??? don't you have something better to do like whale watching and drinking wine coolers. Your welcome to come to Joe Louis Arena and protest this tradition and enjoy the warm welcome you will recieve from 18,000 Red Wings fans. Mind your own business.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Visit Detroit?! Why the fu*k would I do that for?! Be glad you have hockey there because there sure as hell isn't anything else to do! Of course that might explain why all you sorry-ass Detroiters are so passionate about this Octopus thing, because it's easier to deal with than Detroit's crime problem, or high unemployment, or foreclosure problem or bad weather...I can go on and on but I have to attend my "tree hugging" session and afterwards drink wine coolers while I watch whales.
Typical liberal, bitch about everything that has no bearing on your own life. I'm sure a dead octopus keeps you awake at night. Why don't we shut down all the restuarants that sell seafood. I have been to California and it is way over-rated. I'd rather live with real people than plastic, botox ridden, materialistic asswipes. GO RED WINGS !!!!!
LOL, I hear ya. A lot of us are just so tired of these rich smug liberal elitist snobs. They try to redeem there rich white guilt by trying to get involved with some kind of deep cause, and too many times these "liberals" pick one that steps on peoples civil liberties/ personal freedoms, on top of being silly.
Are you sure you're 37, or should we all just subtract about 30 from that number...? And by the way, the octopus are already dead, and not tortured when they die (how about you ask that cow if they were the next time you eat a hamburger?) Then they are thrown into the Detroit river to help nurture the fish in the river. I suggest you do a little more research on the subject at hand before you make yourself look stupid again.
You didn't say anything about Nashville trowing catfish. Bad weather??? Poor moron, like ppl will do something about it. You whine like a bitch because of a 56 years tradition yet your team's name is SHARK!!!
Keep whining because your sharks couldn't pass the 2nd round (AGAIN). Loser
It isn't a rip off completely because the wild through some other fish on the ice
