I also have to say (and agree with my fellow fans) i am a die hard canucks fan who has been through them every step of the way on this emotional journey and this is not representative of the real fans. what happened tonight is pathetic and has taken away from what should be a glorious moment for the bruins and no one wants to see this.
I think most sensible people realize it is not typical of the people of Vancouver, there are always idiots who ruin everything. Trust me I know, I'm a Philly fan.
Congratulations to the Bruins, I'm so happy for my family, it's been a long time coming.
All because some professional athletes lost a hockey game?
Congrats people of Vancouver...
You have just joined my long list....
Of Human beings that I consider to be pieces of shit......
This was just a small percentage of the 100000 people who were downtown that night. Does your list include Chicago, it seems to me they had a small riot at a baseball game over disco music?

No worries though, I am sure Vancouver doesn't even know who you are.

and by people of Vancouver you do mean the handful of idiots who came into the city looking to start trouble, right?
Obviously I am refering to the blithering fucking idiots that I am watching on these videos, and In pictures that are all over the newscasts and all over the internet....
And it should be interesting when all these fucking animals are pulled into court. Cant wait to see how many of them are thrown in prison.
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
oh yes of course i must have missed the blatant obviousness in your term 'the people of vancouver'
you'd have to be there to see the logistics of it... i was there AND i'm from the suburbs and i can assure you it was idiots from out here that set out to fuck everything up

Probably none will go to jail unless they injured someone seriously...most likely a fine and ordered to pay restitution...some may even avoid criminal charges by just paying restitution.

Million dollar professional athletes lose a hockey game? They will all be on planes within the next 48 hours, traveling with their families to Hawaii, Aruba, etc. etc.
And the knucklehead fans? They will all be facing criminal charges and heading off to jail. I love the fucking animals who are actually posing for pictures, with big smiles on their faces. How fucking ignorant can you be?

I think it’s something in the water in BC. I realize this can happen anywhere, and here in Edmonton we had a riot on Canada day of all days(?) a few years back….and things got a little stupid at times in the 06 cup run….but after spending a couple years in BC, I started to think that there was a segment of the population there who thought of rioting as a spectator sport. The Kelowna Regatta and Peachfest in Penticton are both huge, awesomely fun festivals that were ruined by annual riots in the 80's and 90s….Hell, I was involved in a riot in Kelowna in 93 at a fucking carnival! They shut it down early because of fights breaking out everywhere, and the crowd rioted….a massive brawl broke out between the kids and the carnies, and I got blindsided with a steel pipe, shattering my rib and damaging my kidney. Obviously not everyone in BC is an idiot lol….but I’ve never partied/lived/vacationed anywhere else where large groups of people almost inevitably end up chanting ‘riot! riot! riot!’….
All said…losing a hockey game is not worth being an idiot over…and a relatively minor riot is not something to judge a city on, nor to be beside yourself in outrage over. I hope I’m not the only one who sees a bit of irony in the millions of facebook updates in total outrage over this. There are people on my facebook to whom I want to say “Let’s get this straight: it’s shameful to riot over hockey cause it’s just a game…but a few smashed windows and burned cars can get you ‘online within minutes, registering your disgust throughout the world’ , when no other atrocity in the world can inspire you to do the same? THIS is what makes up upset at the state of the world today?” It really IS disgusting.…but put in perspective, everyone’s reaction to a couple dozen idiots is a bit overblown imho.
It's truely a sad day for a city who recently hosted the olympics. Did the police not see this coming?
I just don't get the mentality of someone rolling a car and setting it on fire. Destroying property. A really fucked up society we live in.....and in a civilized part of the world.
I'm sure there was some involvement from people who could care less about hockey, but most of the people in those riots were drunk and angry fans. Makes no difference if they live in Vancouver, or in the suberbs.
The Canucks had a great season and came up short. Boston was the better team and deserved to win. Vancouver squeaked by with their 3 home games and the first 2 could have gone the other way. Boston clearly won their home games.

I don't understand why people riot if their team wins, wtf.
Here in Australia we don't riot.
I am trying to understand this phenomena in Nth America.
