Canucks Media Go Too Far? Crazy Request to NHL After Oilers Loss Sparks Major Backlash!
The hockey community is buzzing — and not for good reasons. After the Vancouver Canucks’ exciting win over the Edmonton Oilers, the focus shifted from the game itself to the controversy afterward. In a surprising turn of events, some Canucks media figures have allegedly asked the NHL to take “special action” to acknowledge the team’s performance — a demand many fans consider totally ridiculous.
Reports from insiders say that a few commentators from Vancouver think the league should “get involved” to make sure the officiating and scheduling “favor the better hockey being played. ” To put it simply — they want the NHL to shield the Canucks from what they think is “unfair treatment” in future games.
However, the hockey fans aren’t accepting this. Supporters of the Oilers are calling this demand arrogant, insisting that Vancouver’s win should stand on its own — not need extra support. “If you’re as good as you say, you shouldn’t need the NHL’s help,” one Oilers fan posted on X (formerly Twitter). Others criticized the Canucks’ media for “trying to make this political” and damaging the fairness of the game.
Even some neutral fans are confused. How did what should have been a post-game talk turn into a plea for favoritism? Many are now wondering if this media behavior will hurt Vancouver’s reputation more than help it.
One thing is clear — the rivalry between the Oilers and Canucks just got even more intense. What was meant to be a simple celebration has turned into one of the most discussed issues in the NHL right now.
