Oh, even better. I can blame him for Team USA's failure to get the gold at the last Olympics! I forgot he was the captain of that team. Thanks HW!

He wasn't the captain of USA...that was Parise. Also, by that logic you would have to blame Kane as well.

The overall point remains, though. It's not even David Backes the player/person that I despise. It's everything he stands for. Ergo, I despise him as well because he is the physical embodiment of everything that's obnoxious about St. Louis' fan base and fans elsewhere with similar feelings.

So pinky winky would of been more appropriate to say?

When it comes to the playoffs, especially after Olympic hockey, most of these guys have multiple issues piled up. Look at the Hawks last year with several tough injured players performing.

This is part of why i'm completely against the archaic eye for an eye type punishment system of suspending a guy out as long as the injured guy is out that you'll see some fans express desire for.

I'm sure you'd just hate it if he ever signed with the Hawks.........

Backes on the Hawks? I hate everything he stands for!!!! I'm now officially an Edmonton Oiler fan.

Please.....

Like I said, I don't hate David Backes. I hate what he stands for. If he signed in Chicago, he wouldn't be propped up by the media and the fan base as some archaic notion of what "toughness" is.

He has my props for wanting to fight when he was disabled. And for helping puppies in Sochi.

Come on, he helped dieing dogs in the midst of human poverty. ?? cynical? foolish? jaded? I don't know....he can't be all bad.
