Re: I hate the Bruins
It would be spectacular with a riot but a Canucks win it would seem would piss off a lot more other people than if they lost. So I vote for a Vancouver win, with a nice riot downtown, maybe with some police heavy-handedness but hopefully they all stay away from where I live.

Can you believe the price of those replica shirts? In the UK you only have to pay about 40 pounds to make grown men look like complete knobheads.

Re: I hate the Bruins
Sadly I don't think there will be a riot even if the canucks lead by 3-0 and then lose 4-3.
When I look at 99% of those wandering around downtown today with canucks jerseys on you can tell these people aren't even ice hockey fans, let alone the sort of people that have enough passion to riot. Lets face it, what we have here is the canadian equivalent of man utd.

Re: I hate the Bruins
It would be churlish to not hope for a Vancouver win; especially as the rest of Canada seems to hate the canucks and there is an element of rubbing their faces in it. Although I think I'll avoid the local news for the next six months if they do win.

Apparently they've closed all the liquor shops at 4:00pm bolted down all the traffic bollards and removed newspaper machines and other objects that could be thrown about. Shops are boarding up their windows, should be a good show.

I hope that doesn't apply to MR. I've got no beer in the house and was going to pick some up on the way home.

Re: I hate the Bruins
Oh dear, those Bruins look to be in control. And Jabba's in line for the Conn Smyth too. I don't think I'm that important but this is clearly starting to look like a conspiracy to have a go at me back becasue of this thread.
Best hope now is for a serious riot in Vancouver.
