I don't think it's the real Canucks fans that are rioting. I think it is just idiots that using the Canucks' loss as an excuse to riot.

One of the worse officiated playoffs of recent memory. Tired to American teams winning, but atleast it's a city that will semi-appreciate it.

Still, this Bruins team has to be the worst team to win the cup in the last 10 years.

Still won it. I guess it balances out the 1971 B's team that was possibly the best team not to win a cup.

Oh by the way, the rioting was started by guys who planned on rioting, NOT Canuck fans. A bunch of the people arrested were from out of town who were actually black listed during the Olympics. A lot of these same people were at the G20 riots.

Guys came into the downtown core with googles, fire starters, weapons and other stuff. This was planned. There were people with signs saying "Riot 2011" on it.

These were NOT Canuck fans. As the riot started that's when the drunken idiots get involved so I don't completely blame those losers. It's a black eye on the city for sure, but you know what, Vancouver came together as people to clean up the mess and speak out for the fact that that was not Vancouver that the world saw rioting.

A lot of the rioters were teenagers and early 20somethings. A lot of people had turned their children, boyfriends, friends ect into the police. They're going to charge every last one of the losers.

Injured Canucks playing hurt in the finals:

Kesler, hip
H. Sedin, back
Edler, shoulder
Hamhuis, torn abdominal
Erhoff, 2 broken fingers
Higgins, fractured foot bone
Beiksa, bruised MCL
Raymond, broken back
Samuelsson, didn't even suit up.

A couple of the Bruins said their game plan all along was to go after the Canucks hard knowing that the Canucks were more banged up. Not using injuries as excusses, but it's hard to ignore. Goes to show how hard that holy grail is to win.

The ratings for Game 7 are showing that even though there was just 1 US team in the finals, the game got its highest rating in 37 years for both a Game 7 and any other Stanley Cup game. 4th largest rating when regular season is added in since 1973 as well.

Already higher ratings in New England than both Celtics NBA Finals games and the parade crowd size is either reported as being the largest or 2nd largest after the 2004 Red Sox parade.

The funny part is some sports radio show in New England tried to say that nobody really cared about hockey and that the other teams are more popular in the area but the ratings and the parade size completely discredit that notion.

I just got back from the parade & it's now being billed as the largest.

WEEI is a joke; they handed out cards for the parade but I threw mine out the second I realized where it came from since they disrespected hockey fans until they were forced to acknowledge them. Thank fuck the Sports Hub saved sports radio in this town.

So who's ready for the draft this week? I'm pretty excited to see where my boy Jamie Oleksiak is going. Wherever it is (please not Montreal or Toronto), I just hope they let him come back here and not request that he play major juniors.

The Whiner Line is still funny. That Morgan Freeman/Jim Rice guy is great.

Yeah he was alright but he got too repetitive for me. The only thing about EEI I actually miss is Frank from Gloucester. But if I had to give him up to get rid of the shouting matches, inflated host egos, completely disrespecting callers with contrary opinions, in-jokes that were never funny but are brought up ad nauseaum, feuds between callers, going on and on about business ventures and of course refusing to talk hockey.

I can't imagine how the past few weeks have been for them, it must be the most elementary hockey talk going today. None of the callers really know anything because the fans all moved to the FM and it's obvious the hosts don't/never did or they would've been more inclined to take calls before they were the only sports story in town. Plus, they fired the only guy with a hockey background.

Bringing in El Prez for D&C is smart though. Even though D&C are deplorable human beings and have nothing worthwhile to say, the readers of Barstool are such sheep they'll all tune regardless of how boring it is. All those Viva La Stool signs are a nuisance. People don't even put effort into them but at least they're labeling themselves as blatant attention whores.

Sorry, thought this was the Boston sports radio thread.

Back to hockey:

Guys came into the downtown core with googles, fire starters, weapons and other stuff. This was planned. There were people with signs saying "Riot 2011" on it.

These were NOT Canuck fans. As the riot started that's when the drunken idiots get involved so I don't completely blame those losers. It's a black eye on the city for sure, but you know what, Vancouver came together as people to clean up the mess and speak out for the fact that that was not Vancouver that the world saw rioting.
Even if the rioters didn't riot...the cops were still gonna bust skulls.

At least the rioters gave them a reason to do it.

A couple of the Bruins said their game plan all along was to go after the Canucks hard knowing that the Canucks were more banged up. Not using injuries as excusses, but it's hard to ignore. Goes to show how hard that holy grail is to win.
I dont care if its refs or injuries or any other reason...

The cup goes to the team that wants it more...and unfortunately for us Nucks fan, once again, it wasn;t us.
