The Vancouver Canucks missed out on the playoffs this year, so it’s been especially eager to get started on the next season.

Like any good spontaneous social media interaction, many of the teams responded with their own set of good-natured retorts.

Of course, some of the teams were a little less friendly and the Edmonton Oilers even called the Canucks out for “blowing up our TL.”

Many of the teams’ Twitter accounts didn’t respond to the Canucks’s Save the Date—instead choosing to respond to their opening game rivals—although they might just be waiting for the actual invitations to arrive. You’ve still got four more months to send them, Canucks.
