Buck Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 them crazy sore loser fans in van don't deserve a team after last night , can't say it was a small hand full of thugs , i watched it on TV till 1 in the morning , i'd say half were wearing the canucks jerseys so i have no respect for what i seen , Gotta disagree on this, if the Canucks would have won or lost lastnight there would have been a riot regardless. When you have a group of punks coming down there with crowbars, masks, rags and gasoline wearing Canucks jerseys - you know that they aren't there to cheer on their hockey team. It sucks as a Canucks fan, and even more as a Canadian to have a black eye like this on every news network around the globe. I gotta hand it to the Bruins, they had the grit to get it done and were the better team. With that being said, I'm still proud of the Canucks, they had a hell of a season and am looking forward to next year. Cheers, Buck Quote
Guest bobjones Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 even at the end of the game booing betman in the house , they were all canucks fans booing , I thought that was awesome. If you can get a whole arena of Canadian fans booing you, you must be a real weasel. Next to Vancouver blowing it, that was my favorite moment of the playoffs. There are not many people that I've never met, that I would feel good about punching in the face, but that twept is at the top of the list. Quote

Cheers, Buck I love the way the Mayor and Police chief are saying "These people come into our city and cause these problems..." As if all the hooligans were from other places. Classic Spin. Fact is most fans were well behaved, but come on, we all have seen the video and there were hundreds and hundreds of FANS wearing jerseys that were rioting and looting. Perhaps now the foks from Van will stop being so full of themselves. Quote
Smitty Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Guys: Vancouver does not have a monopoly in hooliganism. Edmonton had douchebags in 2006, Calgary in 2004 (don't get in a huff; I recognize that the Calgary fans didn't do the same extent of damage; but then again, Calgary is not the same size of city as Vancouver). I think every NHL city in Canada would have had a negative reaction. Vancouver, Montreal, and Toronto the most negative, because they have the highest populations. This is not a Vancouver sucks thing. Its a "there's a small minority of thugs in every city willing to cause s&*t" kinda thing. Smitty Quote
CopperJonny Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Every single one of those douche bags involved , deserve nothing less than having their citizenships under review if not entirely revoked !! Anyone who threatens this nations safety are nothing less than a terrorist !! If I EVER face such people , My remedy rhymes with , FREE INCH MAGNUM!! Oops, hehe darn op sedation drugs.....they told me not to drive , sign anything , or play with anything sharp for 24 hrs , guess "posting on the 'puter fits the bill too" sorry for that ..... Just seeing the images on the screen , man , damn near brings a tear to my eye . kind of gives me the message that we are not much different than other countries in that sense and merely an hour or two away from total chaos . Also kind of tells us what kind of people we may be , in being pursuaded to do such rediculous and heinous acts so easily....what a Sh*tStorm . Seems the few who ruin it for the many , not only comes from the workplace , etc . Its everywhere ! Quote
dutchie Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 smitty your correct in that there was a bunch of small thugs , but i'll also add in all the youtube video's i'v watch and on TV when it was happening , sure was allot and i mean allot of canucks jersey's running around , no one can tell me they were not fans , you could see them jumping and screaming about the canucks so to help make it sound better for the media and city , they come out and say a small group of thugs , whats a small group , 10 , 20 , 50 , small to me would be at the most say 100 , i only have seen 1 person in all the video's wearing a mask , yet i would guess i seen at least 10,000 wearing canucks jerseys , but no chance they were fans , or was the group of thugs not small and was big those standing around in my eyes just as bad , cheering them on , oh don't get me wrong was allot of true fans who were disgusted by what they were watching being done , if everyone would of left after the game when it started to get out of hand , then the cops could of done the job way easier rounding up the so called '' small group of thugs'' , yet i don't believe it was a small group , this is not the first time them crazy canucks made a mess , like 3 times , a whole bunch of sore losers who just wanted to raise a little hell , here's a couple of the so called small group of thugs , looks like canucks fans to me , wish i knew how to blow the pictures up as the guy on the car is holding the lic plate and wearing a canuck jersery , Quote

jimbow Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Blah, blah. I've listened to the "soft European" rhetoricf or so long now. And really, who were the leaders of Boston? Aren't they fairly loaded with Euro's as well? I don't think Chara is from Saskatchewan is he? leaders of the bruins? chara, lucic, bergeron, recchi, horton, krejci. the bruins have euros too but it's more a question of whether the euros are soft or not and what is the role of the euros on the team? kaberle on the bruins (who didn't do himself any favours in the playoffs as a UFA looking for a new contract) i would call soft but not the rest of the bruins' euros. on the canucks i wouldn't call erhoff or edler soft but the sedins, though skilled, are very soft and always have been. they won't win the cup as the go to guys....they can be intimidated and shut down in a 7 game series. to get shut down offensively by the other team's checkers is one thing but to give up 4 goals in a game 7 for the the cup? soft is an understatement. their role is to carry the team and be the go to guys. they have not been able to fufill that role in any season yet. the bettman booing was hilarious - didn't seem to bother him though, he just smiled and opened his piehole to start talking - when you're a weasel you know you're not liked. i remember the same thing in detroit 2 years ago when pittsburgh won. don't really remember it last year in chicago though but maybe it happened. but you could hardly hear him speak over the booing.....i was laughing the whole time.... the rioting was a shameful.....vancouver likely lost all of its olympic goodwill that night.....hard to believe that people could be so thoughtless and stupid. smashing/burning cars is one thing but to smash and loot stores....wow.....stupid doesn't even come close to what it was....i was on the red mile after game 7 in 2004 for a while to check it out and saw nothing that was bad, not even a fight, although i wasn't there all night so s&^% could have happened but i don't recall much going on other then people pissing all over the place and throwing garbage on the streets....why would it be so different?.....are the young people (as most seemed young on tv) that much different there than here?

Smitty This is a Vancouver thing, theyve done it before and will do it again. Everyone new that regardless of a win or loss this was going to happen. Im also not buying the fact that this was a small group of people causing the shite, there was a hella lot of people causing it. Anyone that was down there and didnt leave for one reason is guilty, there were how many thousand people chanting "BURN IT" "RIOT" or whatever, everyone down there was guilty unless they were trying to get home and by the looks of what happened there werent many in a hurry to leave. You cant even compare this to Calgary all that happened here was a bunch of chics showing there tits, Edmonton was a bunch of thugs beating people up either of these were even close to being called or classified as a riot. Van is a joke, your not going to win with the most over rated goalie/player in the history of hockey and to ladies leading your team lol! No offence to ladies just, well you know, its hockey! Quote
Smitty Posted June 18, 2011 Posted June 18, 2011 Well I disagree whatiniceguy. First, my point has nothing to do with who is officially being blamed. Its irrelevant to me what the police chief says. That's not my point at all. I do blame some fans, anarchists or not. My point is that I think similar stuff would happen in Edmonton and Calgary if our cities were comparable in size to Vancouver with the attendant diversity in population. Lets see what happens next time Toronto or Montreal loses a game 7...(could be waiting awhile!) Vancouver is a world class city that was clearly demonstrated during the Olympics, and, more specifically to this issue, to the thousands of people that showed up the next day to clean up and feel the shame of those idiots.

dutchie Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 Marchand shoulda got MVP for this. oh thats so good to see that again , smallest player on the boston's team bitch slapping the big soft captain swead around , just way to funny , Quote

The sad thing about Vancouver is that win or lose this was going to happen, its a city issue. Quote
