Fingers crossed for tonight... with the refs having such an obvious bias towards the Bruins letting them get away with everything until they have won the game and then calling reciprocal penalties (i.e. Sedin getting a penalty after being punched 6 times and not retaliating).
Bruins players have broken the neck of one opponent and the back of another players in the post season. Insisted upon a review of the hit by Rome which ended up with a four game suspension based on the lateness of the hit and 'significant injury'... yet the injured player was in a park giving interviews the next day and able to attend the following game to cheer on his team-mates. Yet there is no penalty or review for a late hit which lead to a fractured vertebra... oh, right, it was a hit by a Bruin and not a Canuck... Can't penalize the Bruins, their relatives might get upset.
Campbell may have stepped down due to the conflict of interest with his son being a Bruin but that doesn't mean his employees aren't keeping an eye out for their job security as he is still the Director of Hockey Operation for the NHL.
It also seems that the media are in the Bruins pockets... none of the hit comparisons or disciplinary discrepancies are being commented on, no comment on the disgusting behaviour of fans in Boston towards the visiting players, no comment on the Bruins history of what they deem bad hits on their players but mete out with immunity.
I am really hoping that the Canucks win tonight... it won't help Mason heal faster but at least the right team will have won.0 -

sounds like sour grapes to me.
This is game 7, this is what hockey is all about. How about we just watch the game and who ever wins, wins. I'm gracious enough to say that Vancouver has played some great hockey on their home ice, and that worries me, but lets not resort to "it's the leagues fault" because you know as well as I do, the league has nothing to do with who wins these games.0 -

AMEN! and...
Our Father, who art in Rogers Arena, Hockey be thy name. Thy will be done, the cup will be won, on ice, as well as in the stands. Give us this day, our hockey sticks, & forgive us our penalties, as we forgive those who cross-check against us. Lead us not into elimination, but deliver us to victory. ...In the name of the fans, in the name of Lord Stanley, in the name of the CANUCKS. AMEN!!!0 -

Actually, it isn't sour grapes. I wish that the childishness on both teams hadn't happened.
I wish Burrows had kept his mouth shut, that the fingers stayed on sticks instead of being waved in faces, that players hadn't dived... I also wish that the Canucks were able to feel confident in the refs abilities to be impartial to make plays and hits to the best of their ability like they had during the regular season which lead to their being first in the league. They are playing much less aggressively due to knowing that they are having crap calls made on them while the Bruins are able to push into the boards, punch and slash away with no consequences.
If this was reversed, I'd be embarrassed to be a Canucks fan. I'd be embarrassed to lump myself in with fans who kept the opposing players waiting to be served for a meal and then said 'we've decided not to serve you here' - who, rumour has it, were setting off air horns outside the opposing players hotel to stop them resting.
I'd still be calling for the refs to smarten up and be impartial because as it is, either team may win the Stanley Cup this evening but the overall loser is the NHL and game of hockey.0 -

I don't care whether it is or it isn't, it still sounds like sour grapes to me. These are all silly complaints IMHO. Sounds like a whole lot of excuses. I don't want to hear it, the better team will win out, that's how it goes. All this stuff is just noise. Who cares! Whom ever wins tonight, it was a great season, and the two teams with the best GF and GA totals are in the finals, as it should be. I refuse to be dragged into a conversation about air horns and food complaints.0 -

I feel like some of the stuff talked about it part of what makes hockey hockey and keeps the fans so tied to it!0

I'll only say this, yes I'm ecstatic about the victory, it was hard fought and much props to both sides.
I gotta ask, how bad do you Vancouver people hate Marchand right now? I could see him being hated really bad. But damn if he isn't the best little fireplug in the NHL right now.0 -
Congrats Boston!!!!! You guys deserved to win. :drinker:0

Congratulations Boston, it was a good game.0

I am just glad game 7 was in Canada and not Boston - imagine what the angry Canucks fans would be doing to Boston iright now if they are destroying their OWN city with the riots?0
-
want2bAskinnyBride - please don't tar all Canucks fans with same brush as you do the ignorant few who instigated the riots which and those who got caught up in the moment and acted like complete idiots.
The true spirit of Canucks fans was showed by the thousands who went downtown on Thursday morning and cleaned up their city, who have written messages of thanks to the Canucks players and all the emergency personnel who were working on Wednesday, who are doing what they can to assist in the identification and prosecution of those responsible for the damage... They are the majority.
I am a Canucks fan and am proud to be one. My only regret is that I know live in the UK so was not able to assist in the clean up.0 -
I saw the aftermath of the game on the news last night. What a shame that a few have to paint souch a bad portrait of Vancouver. My wife and I spent our honeymoon there and thought it was a beautiful, hiospitable city. Hope they get that cleaned up and punish the idiots responsible. I wanna go back soon.0
