FINAL RESULTS: NHL Personalities You Don't Like

I sure do like polls, they help pass the miserable NHL-less hours away. Anyway, I would like to know your opinions on these controversial NHLers. Do you love to hate 'em. Vote for as many as you like, and don't forget to add some write in candidates.

All the Americans seem to piss me off, but you left off the two worst, dumb and dumber, Tkachuk and Guerin.

I also hate Bobblehead Comrie.

how could anybody hate mike ricci? sure his hair seems to piss people off, but overall he's really funny and he's a really good guy.

Ulfie

Ill jump on that bandwagon!

I like Mike Comrie, he proved me right all those years I told Oiler fans he was a spoiled little **** head.

How about Tkachuk, Pronger, and Kariya?

3 biggest babies in the game, IMO.

Besides Kariya, I agree.

ya have to give Kariya credit for getting back up from that hit from stevens in the cup finals. No crying there. just bright lights.

Chelly's right at the top of the list but i agee with other posters on here that Tzachuk should be on the list.He's just an arrogant s.o.b.It's a shame he gets to lead the quality of life he does,goes to show you life ain't fair.

Sammy Wilson - and all other cheap shot artists.

In terms of all time players who I don't like they are as follows:

1. Bobby Hull - Really a huge a-hole is all that I can say.
2. Mark Messier - Nothing against the guy really, other than the fact he beat the Canucks, then decided to rob them 4 years later.
3. Claude Lemieux
4. Ulf Samuelsson

1. Bobby Hull - Really a huge a-hole is all that I can say.



this is the exact complete opposite of my experience. Bobby was a true gentlemen, took the time to talk, and was warm both times i have met him.
Brett Hull is the same way. I cannot understand people disliking Brett so much. He says what he thinks and believes and i usually find that he is right on the mark.
Another i don't understand is the JR bashing. For a long time I didn't like him, but the last few years he has proven to be a passionate hockey guy, one i would love to see leading the league or the players. He knows what he is talking about.

from the poll options:

Dislike:
Modano
Comrie
Hasek
Yashin
Ulf
Keenan
Chelios
Goodenow

Indifferent:
Domi
Sather
Bettman

Like:
Hull
Roenick
Barnaby
Bertuzzi
Ricci

Curious, Why Hasek and Modano?
Agree with everything else.

Modano, for no rhyme or reason, just never could stand the guy.

Hasek for choking out the reporter in Buffalo after pulling up lame on the team, his actions in the inline hockey game (assault), and just being an overall jerk. Now that he is an Ottawa Senator just makes him even worse in my eyes. ;)

BTW, my sig is a Bobby Hull quote. :D

Oh yeah, I forgot about the Hasek hack. always liked Modano, mostly because I wish I could skate like him. I had season tickets in Minnesota the year they went to the finals, and remember his speed being new to that team.

Well, several hours in, I find it interesting to see my old friend Little Mikey leading the way. Be warned, if you make him cry, he will hold it against you. And if he does, don't blame it on me. I just love that little feller, if he gets mistreated in Phoenix, him and his family is always welcome to bunk up in my barn until they get back on their feet. Don't put pride before a fall, Mikey, you give us a call if you need anything. ;)

I had to vote for Modano.That crack about not being able to feed his dog was disgusting.It showed just how out of touch with the real world he is.

1. JR
2. Lindros
3. Messier
4. Bettman
5. Stan Fiechler

Guys not on this list:

1. Roy
2. Lindros
3. Claude Lemieux

1)Modano- the dog quote
2) Bill Guerin- the two handed chop on a teammate, various and sundry quotes
3)Brett Hull- everything about him 'specially his alien,no eyebrow,freak assed " F@ck the fans" statement
4)Chelios- Where every year has a good whine.
5)Lindros- The epitome of why not to have a parent/manager
6)Turco- Dirty little two-handed turdball
7)Claude Lemieux- hated even by his teammates,was made to drive his own vehicle following the bus.
8)Jason Arnott- You'd be hard pressed to find a more self-absorbed,brain dead,arrogant,SOB than this guy.
9)Hasek- I'd like to see this guy have a chopping contest, with Hextall
10)Comrie-'LIL baby couldn't take the pressure, enjoy the golfing weather.

Ville Nieminen. :mad:

Agree with Pronger. How greedy can you get.
:whine:

Owen Nolan - I can't stand him.

Domi....by a mile.

"Its just a hole new ball game..."

I had to vote for Modano.That crack about not being able to feed his dog was disgusting.It showed just how out of touch with the real world he is.

Hear hear!

I hate him so much. Do you need EVERY picture of you airbrushed to hide your pockmarks, crater face?

HR mention to Bill Guerin, who went after a Stars rookie during practice. :handclap:

Belfour, Turco, Comrie & Claude Lemieux can go to hell too.

Please tone down your hatred of 'Ol Pearly Whites. I'm afraid that his giant poodle (which I believe is either named Anastasia or Priscilla) will hear you, and feel that she is somehow responsible for your anger toward her benevolent owner. She may then refuse to eat her exclusive super healthy and expensive pet food. She may then lose her ability to do fabulous tricks and bottom out by peeing on Mikey's fabulous four inch thick shag carpet. Come on, Hootchie Cootchie, you don't want to be responsible for that kind of disaster, do you????

On the subject of players with a wacked out idea of their salary, Brian McCabe.

Darcy Tucker.

Bobby Hull, one of the greats, but a racist, antisemite and a wife beater.

comrie

I don't really get Barnaby, Roenick or Ricci being on here...oh well. Roenick maybe because he runs his mouth sometimes...the other two seem really out of place in this poll.

Does Barry Melrose count as an "NHL personality"?

Gary & Bob, Brett Hull, Ulf Samuelsson, Todd Bertuzzi.

Barely.

Darcy ****er

Claude Lemieux. Gutless coward , cost Canada the 98 World Cup.
Roenick- Nobody is in front of a camera more for doing less. Takes any opportunity, even while concussed- to get on TV.
Pat Lafontaine. Treated as a hero in some parts but it says here he was a poison greaseball that begged for second assists and would admonish teammates for not looking for him with the empty net.
Tkachuk/Guerin, spoiled , overpaid, dirty arrogant- infinity. An endless amount can be said about that pair.
Barrasso. An outright ass and lucky he played in the era he did as he would have been waiver wire fodder in today's game.
Mario Lemieux. He cried , sooked , whined and crapped all over the game that made him rich and famous. He then decided he was the great Canadian for the Olympics. Go away please- just go away.
Mike Keenan- Some people ******** their way through and he is one who pulled it off and just keeps on pulling it off. Its like making the probowl. Once you do it you do it forever no matter how much you suck. Still hasn't practised a powerplay since he started in the league.
The 2000 Barrie Colts. One of the most embarassing units of all time. They lacked class and it started at the top.
Bobby Clarke. Continues to give hope to armchair GM's everywhere. We all sit at home and marvel at the fact he keeps his job. He is so far up Snider's rear he has a tent pitched on his stomach wall.
Mario Tremblay. A first time coach with amazing arrogance. He's probably gotten better under Lemaire.
Andy Van Hellemond- I'd love to hear the real story.
I better stop before i really get myself in trouble. May i add Gary Leeman and Al Iafrate. Guys did not want to go on the road when Leeman was hurt.

Haha...this I cannot argue with.

Fortunately, he made a great improvement last season. This lockout worries me, though...he could easily deteriorate and pursue another Oates trade.

Ville Nieminen. :mad:

Why Nemo?

Claude Lemieux. Gutless coward , cost Canada the 98 World Cup.There wasn't a world cup in 98. Are you talking about 96? (I'd blame CuJo more than anyone.)

In that vein, I believe Tkachuk's drunken antics at Nagano were the biggest reason we didn't get a World Cup in 2000. Why Wilson didn't have that team doing bag skates, I'll never know.

Larry Brooks: Fitting he works for the worst paper in America. You think someone who as wrong as often as he is would get leary of his sources.

Bobby Clarke: You don't have to be Frued to figure out his obsession with big players.

Tie Domi. You look up goon in the dictionary, his picture will be by it. His whole career is based on fighting and cheap shots.

If there was a poll for biggest crybaby, that vote would go for Eric Lindros, who should have been one of the poll choices. A textbook example on why players shouldn't have their parents be their agent.

Sandis Ozonol....I heard he was a pain in the ass :joker:

Ville Nieminen. :mad:

:handclap:

Totally Agree.

Yes, my fault- 96 World Cup. We had a 2-1 lead and Claude was in the corner with plenty of time. He blindly rimmed a puck around the boards which Leetch picked up and fired , Hull tipped it home and the wheels were set in motion for the loss. I remember screaming "no!!!!" when i saw him winding up. Just an awful play.

How about Derian Hatcher? I think he's the dirtiest player in the league.

Kerry 'Haute Coiffure' Fraser

Well, she's all closed down, and here's how it shook out:

Everybody hates Gary & Bob

Everyone seems to hate Brett Hull

And lo and behold, not everyone's too fussy on that adorable little Mike Comrie..

I had expected Modano to be less popular, but I suppose some voters have a soft spot for his fantastic giant poodle Anastasia...

I think someone who could have been in the polls is Kelly Hrudey. Everyone in my neck of the woods hates him- and im sure alot of other people do as well.

oops. Wrong thread. But I also dont see the point of a guy like Roenick being on this list, seeing as how he genuinely promotes the game whenever he can. Plus he's an interesting character.

The point was an awful lot of people think he is a genuine horse's ass. That doesn't mean you can't like him. Everyone gets an opinion here. ;)

What is everyones problem w/ ulf... I'm just wondering. And can some one tell me what he did to end Neely's career? I'm not exactly a long time hockey watcher.

Ulf was the master of knee on knee, he hit Neely low and essentially began the end of the Caminator's career..

but what was wrong with his personality? if his on ice stuff was dirty... i understand but this poll is asking for personalitys that you don't like. Unless theres something I don't know about his personality..... :dunno:

I used the term "Personalities" as in "Characters" or people associated with hockey. I couldn''t say player since i included Bettman et. al. I don't know what most of these people are like away from the game of hockey, they made it to the poll because I thought they might be considered notorious amongst fans for either on ice actions or silliness away from the game. Ulfie could be kind, loving and sing beautiful folk music to the elderly for all I know...

WHAT WHAT WHAT!?!?!?!? Where are all the Ribeiro's basher?

Sandis Ozonol....I heard he was a pain in the ass :joker:

ozolinch?

I'll echo the "Why Reech?" sentiment

He was (& still is) a fan fave in SJ...a fan friendly, sweet, brilliant man (who's last news worthy act was asking Pat Tillman's parents for permission to wear #40 in Phoenix, to honor their son)...I find it odd that he would be placed amongst the likes of Hull & Comrie in a poll of least liked NHL personalities AND get 5 votes

:dunno:

I read about that gesture- a fine tribute. Guys, this poll was for fun, to see who irritated who. It wasn't a poll to decide whose house to egg and toilet paper or anything. Ricci, with that silly mop of hair, was just someone who popped into my head when I had fifteen slots to fill. I hate Mike Modano's guts, can't stand the sight of him. He may, however volunteer 70 hours a week at a children's burn unit for all I know , so when I say I "hate" him, it's just that I get riled up by my PERSONAL VIEW OF HIM from my perspective as an Oilers fan. I saw Ricci play for the Nordiques in a neutral site game or an exhibition game (can't remember which) and he yapped like a baby poodle so you could hear him all through the rink. Ever since then, as i watched his hair grow, I thought that he looked like a real donkey, and apparently a few others thought so, too. But don't worry, we aren't sending him hate mail or anything.... ;)
