Hi everyone, I thought it was time to get to really know each other or for some to get reaquainted.

Post a little bit about yourselves, where you are from, your ancestry, your favorite team, your likes or dislikes. Anything you would like to share with us all. I'll start.

My online name Amoroq means wolf in Inuit(Eskimo) I've been told its spelled wrong but everytime I do a search I keep finding it the way it is now, So be it ;) Oh and no, I'm not Inuit, I am English on my Dads side and Scot on my Moms. One of my favorite movie moments is from Trainspotting

Tommy: Doesn't it make you proud to be Scottish?
Renton: I hate being Scottish. We're the lowest of the low. Most people hate the English. I don't. They're just wankers. We're colonised by wankers. We couldn't even find a decent race to be colonised by. It's a shite state of affairs to be in, and no amount of fresh air is ever going to change that.


I hail from the City of Toronto, home of the Leafs, Jays, Argos, The Rock. All of whom have won multiple championships in their respective leagues. So yes I'm a homer and cheer for the home teams. Not that big of a fan of the CFL but the Argos are the current CFL champs, so i cheer :)

I now live in Niagara Falls Ontario, been living here since 95 and I am in the Hotel/Hospitality business.

I was born in May of 1964 and just turned 3 when the Leafs last won Lord Stanley, so I'm one of a select few who can at least say they won a cup during my lifetime ;)

I'm married with a son who turns 4 also in May, and with another baby on the way.

My favorite moment in hockey is being at Maple Leaf Gardens, when Sittler scored 6 goals and 4 assists VS the Boston Bruins. A record that still stands and I doubt thats one that won't ever get broken, but anything is possible.

Another moment I'll always remember is when Joe Carter hit that walk off home run to win the Jays a World Series.

Enough about me, lets hear about you :)

Good to have you on board, not only are you a Canucks fan, but you are a sarcastic bastard Canucks fan, and a thinking philosphical sarcastic bastard Canucks fan with an interest in Carl Marks. The quest to drive M-Deezy, Liam, and Krypty insane has entered a new era... :0pouce:
Hey! I thought the quest was to bring the mods to their knees with mind-numbing arguments until you and I were made mods to rule this place with an iron fist. I see how it is Bob.:mad:

I was born on the 31st of March 1988 in Dublin, the capital of the Republic of Ireland. I live in Bray, it's a small town to the South of Dublin. I'm in secondary school at the moment and I've a year left there. I hope to do journalism in college when I'm finished in school

Some random facts about me: I work part-time in a sports shop called Lifestyle Sports. I'm half-American, my mother was born in Chicago. I'm fluent in two languages: English and Irish. I'm the youngest of four children. I'm partially deaf in one ear. I'm part of a supporters club for my local soccer team, Bray Wanderers, that sponsored one of our players for the season, namely Philip Keogh.

Hello, my name is tom, i am 18 and currently attending Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NEW JERSEY. I am a Rangers fan and have been my whole life, i also enjjoy other sports though despise soccer and basketball.

I have been playing hockey since i was nine, started out as a roller hockey player then turned to ice and havent looked back. I have played every position though i consider myself an offenseman. My favorite player of all time is Brian Leetch and i think it was a sin that the rangers ever got rid of him.

I hate cheaters, Jim Dolan, athletes that :censure: and moan and people who are stubborn and have no idea what they are talking about. thank you for your time....GO RANGERS!!!!!!

Hey everyone. I'm Sean and I am 25 years old. I was born and raised in Montreal. Other places I have lived are Toronto, Miami, Detroit, NYC, and now I live in Chicago. I am part French, Irish, and Welsh. My team is obviously the Canadiens. The greatest moment of my childhood was the 92-93 season when The Habs won the cup. If they keep progressing the way they are I firmly believe we'll get another one within the next 5 years.

The iron fist rule of Liam, Mushroom Cloud, and Senor Burns is just a matter of time; the current strangehold of power at HF is the worst thing to happen since the cancellation of Newsradio. :0pouce:

Everyone knows the Refs were in on it with the Rags to prevent the Canucks from rightfully winning their cup and bringing the glory back to Vancouver.

I am here on these forums out of pure disgust for the moderation at HF. Wanting so badly to be taken seriously by hockey people they forgot that it is ultimately a source of entertainment for hockey fans. Bob gainey does not crusie the forums looking for ideas for his next signing. When I left HF I said I was not going back and I am not-ever. I am here to be a regular poster and enjoy some good conversations and a few arguments with some fellow fans.

I'm 23 and originally from the Philadelphia area. I now live in Maryland, right outside of Baltimore. I have been a Flyers fan for as long as I can remember...I like John LeClair and I was really upset when he went to Pittsburgh. I teach 5th grade in a school about 5 miles outside of DC. Since I moved to Maryland, I have started watching the Capitals.

I also like baseball and football. Again, My favorite teams are Philly, but I'm growing to like the Maryland and Washington baseball teams.

My online name is J.S. 22 because those are my initials and 22 is Mike Bossy's number.

I was born and still currently reside in Vancouver. My most disappointing hockey memory was watching Vancouver lose in the final in '94 at the age of 5. I followed them the entire season at that age. My favourite players on the team at that time were McLean, Murzyn, Lumme, and Linden.

I've always had a good memory, by age 4 I knew every number on the Canucks and the corresponding player and vice versa, and every bus number and the bus route name and vice versa.

I'm a student in high school.

Hockey is my favourite sport, and I can't skate at a very good level (though I'm better than the average person). Therefore, I get my fix via street hockey and a weekly drop-in floor hockey in gym.

My nickname when I play is "Flash".

I love hockey madly, though music, Heroclix, video games, and stuff are also very high on my list.

My favourite teams are: see signature

My favourite players are: see sig

That's all for now, I'll edit this post if I remember more details.

Hey Everyone, I've been here for a while now, and I just noticed this thread. :haha:

My real name is Vern and I'm almost 16 years old. I live in Winnipeg, (Although I'd rather live in the States) As you can tell, my fav team is those awsome 2007 Stanley Cup Champions, The Vancouver Cunucks. :haha:

My new life long dream, (which I've had since about two months ago) is to eat a fresh, off the belt, Krispy Kreme Doughnut. And my future career goals are to be an Actor, or a Lawyer.

Lol, yeah, we're kinda stupid, aren't we CRF(not noticing this thread till now, haha)? Anyways, great dream to have, it's a good thing, Krispy Kreme-one of the many reasons americans are so damn fat.

Anywho, I also just now noticed this thread. Here it goes. My real name is Adam, of course. I am 15 as of tomorrow, and hockey is one of my passions. The other two are my friends and music (and of course girls, lol).

I have a beautiful girlfriend, Kelsey, she is awesome. Um, I am extremely liberal, ever since birth. Not too big on traditional family values or religion, either.

My life long dream has been to move to Canada. And I love the word ciao. And milk.
