So, Sportsnet took down UrinatingTree's video on the Ottawa Senators for "copyright infringement" (it was not). His fans went to Tim and Sid's video on the Raptors and oh boy:

 

 

Uhmm... I'm not following, what's the story here, Frag?

Urinating Tree is basically a shitposter for sports. He craps on every team, including his favorites (he's blocked by the Pittsburgh Steelers, his football team, on Twitter after running a long series on them).

 

He made a video about Eugene Melnyk and the Ottawa Senators, which got removed due to copyright infringement by Sportsnet. He only used a few clips, and all included commentary that made it unique (ie. Fair use). He made a counterclaim, which got rejected by YouTube. Now, his fans are s***ing on the most recent Sportsnet video after the announcement, which was the one I linked.

Canes getting their s*** pushed in by the Bruins.

[Spanky99]

How can that not be reviewable? lol... Blues got f***ed. Hand pass on a game winning goal in OT missed... I'd be livid, too.

That game was hard to watch.

[Spanky99]

Aaaand the Canes get swept... pathetic effort. Although the Bruins have been other-worldly in these playoffs.

[Laika]

Yessssssss

[Spanky99]

Thinking the Blues will take this in their barn... the 2 best teams since January 1st for the cup makes sense.

[Boxcar]

That game was hard to watch.

 

Well yeah. It's hockey

[Spanky99]

Blues will be closing the door tonight.

 

WHC Prelims are over... Canada won 3-0 today over the U.S

 

QF games...

 

Canada/Swiss

 

Russia/U.S

 

Sweden/Finland

 

Czechs/Germany

[Spanky99]

Blues win... Woohoo!

[Laika]

Bruins - Blues is cool

 

Heck of a lot better than basically any other matchup that could have come from the final 8 teams

I'd have preferred the Sharks. Big Joe Thornton/Joe Pavelski fan

Plus, Jumbo Joe against the team that traded him.

[BTS]

The Blues are the 6th team ever to sit in last place in January and make the playoffs, and the 1st of those 6 to win a playoff series.

Same but they're so injury riddled at this point the Blues will probably make it a better series.

Well I'm not going to watch because hockey is gay so it's all about narrative for me

[Krylian]

The Blues are the 6th team ever to sit in last place in January and make the playoffs, and the 1st of those 6 to win a playoff series.

 

And the 1st to lose in the Stanley Cup final.

[wilko]

Well yeah. It's hockey

The last time the Blues made it to the final was 1970 and got swept by the Bruins. Hopefully they can do better this time!

Ottawa Senators have hired D.J. Smith, the former PK coach for the Leafs, as head coach.

He must have been willing to work for an insulting salary.

[Boxcar]

He must have been willing to work for an insulting salary.

 

Probably just a resume builder

[Frag]

He must have been willing to work for an insulting salary.

 

Basically, it's a deal with the devil incarnate.

[Spanky99]

Canada squeezed by the Swiss, tied the game with 0.4 seconds left and won on Stone's OT winner 3-2.

 

Czech's beat Germany 5-1, Finland upset Sweden 5-4, Russia beat USA 4-3...

 

Semi's Canada/Czech, Russia/Finland next.

 

Canada lost to Finland in the finals... Finland upset everyone, lol.

Pretty sure absolutely nothing will come from this other than him having to issue a statement to appease any busybodies who care about this for some reason.
