Iron Crotch Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 I hate the Bruins, but I am a little bit happy for Tim Thomas given that he got here the hard way. Started in the ECHL, then Europe, then back over...
SwampD Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 I've enjoyed watching the entire series, but I hate, I mean absolutely HATE, watching a team not wearing blue, white, and gold lifting that cup every year. It doesn't matter who wins it, if it's not Buffalo I get a little angry watching the celebration. I have never watched any ceremony in any sport, and not hated the winner.
bunomatic Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Danny Paille gets his name on the cup. Good for him.
Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Thomas is a smug prick, great goaltending but he just annoys me
LGR4GM Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Ten, not six. ^this also Thomas and I dont like saying this but he deserved to win, he made this happen in this series with his amazing lockdown of the vancouver team. MVP in my opinion
SwampD Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Thomas is a smug prick, great goaltending but he just annoys me No way. He's one reason I don't hate the bruins,.. and he fishes.
LGR4GM Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Thomas is great, but that death star shield they put up around him doesn't hurt. "its an older code sir but it checks out"
SwampD Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Winning is a belief. While watching these guys hold up that Cup, everyone here right now needs to imagine a Sabre hoisting that cup over their head. It will happen.
Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 No way. He's one reason I don't hate the bruins,.. and he fishes. Fishing=cool and he deserves the cup and mvp but I still think he eminates cockiness. At least he's kinda allowed to on this day
Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 I think what's even sadder is that this ends hockey for a while ; (
bunomatic Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Fishing=cool and he deserves the cup and mvp but I still think he eminates cockiness. At least he's kinda allowed to on this day But he doesn't have that arrogance that absolutely drips from Luongo. Thomas is humble and articulate even in a moment when people would expect him to boast. Liked what he had to say to Ron Mclean about the canucks.
bunomatic Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Brad Marchand had a great playoff and for a rookie he has a bright future.
darksabre Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Tim Thomas makes Boston winning tolerable. The dude deserved it more than any goalie I can think of in recent history. Probably since Hasek or Roy. The man just killed it.
Jeanbe Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Brad Marchand had a great playoff and for a rookie he has a bright future. I'm happy to see Paille host the cup. Always liked that kid. Boston deserved this win and Thomas deserves all the credit. Vancouver was totally outplayed.
BuffaloFansR_Crazy Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Ya gotta love the BC fans booing Bettman. Really? I hope you are being sarcastic. I never knew how classless some Canadian hockey fans were until I witnessed it first hand at the World Jrs this past winter. I was so embarrassed when they started booing, and then felt even worse when they started the chant. I am not a fan of Bettman, but come on.
Taro T Posted June 16, 2011 Author Report Posted June 16, 2011 Bummer. The Nucks never had a chance. Bob Matthews essentially picked them to win in a high scoring game in today's D&C. If Matthews likes your chances, you're ######. If he picks you outright, you might as well be Bruce Willis walking around Harlem wearing nothing but underwear and a sandwich board stating 'I hate ...'. You'll at least have a fighting chance.
BuffaloFansR_Crazy Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 Anyone else just see on VS the coverage of ace hols burning cars in the streets of Vancouver?

I was so embarrassed when they started booing, and then felt even worse when they started the chant. I am not a fan of Bettman, but come on. Really? You're blaming the booing of Bettman being on 'classless Canadians?' What's the excuse for booing him in Detroit, or Carolina, or Tampa Bay, or Colorado, or New Jersey, or ...? I can't recall the last time I've seen him speaking in front of fans and NOT getting booed.
bunomatic Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 The idiots are at the gates. The goons in Vancouver are flipping cars and burning them. Will there be another riot. I hope some cops step up and club these no brained Goof balls.

Thank you Taro T. There's no need to let this thread slip into a classless Canadian or whatever thread. It happens everywhere he goes and frankly goes with the territory of his position. Thats why he smiles everytime it happens.

Taro T Posted June 16, 2011 Author Report Posted June 16, 2011 Anyone else just see on VS the coverage of ace hols burning cars in the streets of Vancouver? Nope. I stopped watching after seeing Boychuk (does he have a sister named Girlchuk?) carry the Cup because I would not be able to stomach seeing Colie Campbell out celebrating w/ his kid and I figured it'd be inevitable to see that. Damn shame that they'd do that. Now THAT is a difference between Canucks and Yanks. Our idgits burn our own cities to 'celebrate,' theirs at least do it because their pissed / frustrated. (No, I am not condoning it and an entire city should not be tainted by a few morons.)
