WOW Vancouver....
I'm sry but the fact that the people of that city thought it necessary to trash THEIR OWN city after losing is terrible. I don't know about the rest of you guys, but i am completely amazing at how big of cry baby's people turn into after a game. "Eh guys i think i have a solution to us losin they game. Lets go oot and aboot and riot! That will surely bring our win back eh?!"
Just a random commentary

I also thought the loud booing during the presentations was very low class. The Canucks had a great year even though they lost, and now the only thing people will remember is how classless a lot of Vancouver fans were.

Vancouver is an embarrassment to Canada. Not for the loss, they got out played, big time. But for being ******* about it. You lost now hang your head and go the f home.

A lot of cities react like this in defeat. It happens. It's a tough pill to swallow.
I can't believe the B's won like that on the road. The Canucks have nothing to hang their head on, though. They had an amazing season. |

Actually, they do. Luongo's big flappy mouth going off. After that Canucks seemed destined to lose the Stanley Cup.
I agree that cities can get pretty riled up, but seriously, a RIOT??? Even Miami's 'heartbreak' didn't warrant riots. Stay classy, Vancouver. |

It's nothing new, though. And so what about flappy mouf. They made it to the dance with offense and great goaltending, but they lacked D. Boston had D and goaltending, and that won the series. |

Just because it happens all the time doesn't mean it should be acceptable. i agree that, as a city, vancouver should be embarassed by this whole thing
just because u lost doesnt mean you have to wreck YOUR OWN city. what the hell does that prove??

Oh, you've got a point. I'm just pointing out that it's not some new precedent. Sports fans react when overflowing with emotion, both good and bad emotion. I don't think it reflects on that particular city, though. Just that group of nutters on that magical/horrible evening.

I lived in Vancouver for 12 years. They easily have the most crappiest, most fickle fans of any city I've ever been to. I've never looked around a hockey game and watched so many people sip white wine spritzers while at a sporting event.
If the team loses 3 games in a row, everyone in the city wants the head coach fired and half the team traded. If they win 3 games in a row, the whole city has their Vanucks jerseys on. There is a reason they lost their NBA team. The fans have no real commitment to the team, and just see it as a casual social event. I loved living in Vancouver, but it sucks for sports fans, and snobbery.
