I gotta give props to the Jets fans, they are a bit more inventive than most other teams' "(Insert player name here) you suck!". My favourite had to be when Buffalo was in town and they chanted "silver medal" to Ryan Miller. He tried to shake it off in the post-game interview but you could tell he was pissed.

Are you really this clueless or just trying to be a twat? Do you really not know the difference between ice hockey and field hockey? You never heard of the IHUK, IIHF? I can forgive a Brit for not knowing anything about the NHL but I would suspect most have watched the Winter Olympic Games at some point in their lives.
Yes, we do play rugby here in the states as well, and have been for over 130 years http://www.agiantawakens.com/
Your post does however support the stereotype of the cheeky, patronizing and pretentious Englishman.

I'm going to have to go with trying to be a twat Alex. And being from England, this guy is surely a soccer(football) fan. Don't even get me started on that sport.

Hockey is one of the single most violent and injury prone sports there is. I would rather take a soccer(foot)ball to the face anyday, then do relive the day I took a puck to the face 
More so, if you per say punch a guy in the face on a rugby field you will probably end up in jail. In hockey, you better be prepared to give and take some fist to the face
If you think rugby is a tuff sport, you should try hockey I have ate, slept, and drank nothing but hockey my entire life. Its as much a part of my blood as plasma is.
So to say hockey is a girls sport? Really....well then just step in front of my 90 mph slap shot ( which happens everyday in hockey) and lets see just who is a girl
If you live past that part, I have Milan Lucic, and Patrick Kaleta waiting to ask questions about your "hockey-gurly insinuation

I guess this just shows how moronic the jets fans are....I mean Ryan Miller vs....Whats his name again??? Right , in comparison the Jets should beg to have a goalie like Miller! Granted he is no King Henry but he is a hell of a goaltender and in compare to the jets goalie he is a hall of famer....Heck hes a GOLD MEDAL WINNER COMPARED TO THE JETS GOALIE(S) --
Chris Mason
Ondrej Pavelec
Who the fek are they in the nhl?????
Think they need to chant " We-have-no-goalie"
Be more accurate of a chant as well!Ive been to a sabres vs boston game in buffalo were for about 2 mins straight the sabres fans reminded boston that " Boston Plays Dirty" which is unanimous in the nhl

I'm guessing you are a Sabres fan? No need to get pissed about it. Facts don't really matter, it's just chirping. Fans in every arena do this, including in Buffalo as you have evidenced. Some are just more knowledgeable than others. They were trying to get Miller distracted and off his game. Hey, it might've worked, Winnipeg won that game didn't they? Though it could be argued if it had any effect, Winnipeg has one of the best home records this season. I happen to think it has a lot to do with how loud and passionate the fans are in that building. And yes, Pavelec is no Ryan Miller, but he is a good goaltender. He doesn't get a lot of defensive support, faces a lot of shots almost every game, and is one of the main reasons Winnipeg has been able to remain a playoff contender for most of the season.I guess this just shows how moronic the jets fans are....I mean Ryan Miller vs....Whats his name again???

Close, I graduated from Michigan State I can't say I have one favorite team. I have loved many teams since I have been able to put on skates.
I am very well aware of what typically goes on in most arena's that are hosting hockey games
I don't have anything against any team, includings the jets. I do have things against ignorant fans. Like the idiot behind the net pounding on the glass when the opposing team has the puck. Or the pack of fans that have no clue what it takes to be a pro in the NHL but shoot ignorant low ball smack for the malicious intent of another teams favor. I believe the game should be played as fair as possible, but the fans have no bearings, especially when the arena's are alcohol fueled.
I DO, apologize if I came across in the wrong manner. Not my intention at all, and I apologize for the over-reaction to your chirping. With that,
Jets have been a sleeper, and so have the sabers. I do NOT, nor would NOT count either team out and in fact to surprise this playoff season. Playoff's are about who is playing hot, not best records. Jet's Goaltending is scary , but I would'nt blame any one person on any team.
St. Louis vs. Detroit is how I see it unfolding and Blues have my vote to take it all
Hoping to see Kings, Sabres, Hawks, Florida, and Winnipeg to make some noise and surprises!

I grew up playing with the Miller family in Michigan. Kevin is my age so Kelly is a bit older and Kip younger but Ryan and Drew's dad Dean would also play a lot of stick time. The whole family is fucking incredible. Ryan and Drew were in peewee and squirts when I left Michigan so I really never knew them as players until they became Spartans.

Believe it or not I have a connection to Ryan Miller as well. My brother played all his minor hockey with a guy who's brother (Brad Fast) who played for the Spartans and was captain for a year during the days of Miller, John-Michael Liles, etc. Ryan Miller was even the best man at his wedding!
Okay, maybe that's reaching a bit.

Cricket balls hit 120MPH bowling and 350mph when hit. If you know about physics you will understand that they will have about 4-8 times the power of a hockey ball. They weigh about the same as cricket balls, 5 and a half ounces but they are not rubber.Hockey is one of the single most violent and injury prone sports there is.

The trouble with America is the 'sue everyone' mentality that is destroying proper sports. In England, we get a smack in the mouth, lose a few teeth and get on with it.

Bullshit. 100mph tops, and that's before the bounce which drains a ton of energy and speed.
Don't talk about physics if you don't understand it. Power is specifically about energy transfer, so saying 4-8 times is meaningless without explaining how, especially when you consider the energy of a cricket ball after a bounce is lower than a hockey puck in flight. You can't transfer more energy than it has to start with so your numbers are fantasy pulled out of your ass. A chunk of frozen vulcanized rubber which makes up a hockey puck is not exactly soft it also doesn't have to bounce before hitting the net minder (or defenseman) and is often shot from a much closer distance, yet getting hit by a puck is not even the most dangerous thing about ice hockey.
Quit learning everything about the states from TV and movies.
As for hockey players caring about losing a few teeth, you really are clueless....
