Spector was asked by a fan how he thinks the Canucks fit into the Western conference picture going forward after they were eliminated by the Oilers in the second round this year. The team appears poised to become a regular contender for the top of the Pacific division in the years to come, but Spector felt the need to criticize the team for being too... European.
Even Oilers fans are not defending his comments. Given how tribalistic professional sports tend to be, this is relatively significant. Clearly, even Oilers fans have become tired of Spector's shtick.
