Boston Bruins win Stanley Cup!

[whopper2]

I had no dog in this year's playoff hunt, but congratulations to Boston.  It's been too long and it's great when a franchise hits the big one after so long a dry spell.

I wish they would show more of the TRUE hockey fans in Vancouver. The ones in the arena that gave Thomas, Recci and the rest of the Bruins standing O's
for a job well done. Not the idiots rioting.

I agree.  It was shocking how loud the crowd boo'd Gary Betman when he was announcing awards, and then switch to cheering Thomas for winning MVP and then again when the cup was lifted.  Must have felt great to be a Boston player at that moment to have a rival crowd cheer you that loudly.  I'm happy Boston won as well, and for the first time in forever the 2 best teams were playing in the final.

Considering it takes 12 wins to get to that final, I'd have to say the 2 best teams are always there.

The game's played on ice, not paper...

I should have been more specific - the 2 best regular season teams.

Oooops, that flew over my head

Vancouver was tops and Washington was second overall in the standings. Boston was 7th overall.
