Kevin Bieksa calls out ‘stupid’ Bruins after win, says Brad Marchand ‘has to live’ with loss 01.07.12 at 5:27 pm ET
By DJ Bean

Kevin Bieksa is at it again. (AP)

Surprise, surprise. Kevin Bieksa is talking.

The outspoken Canucks defenseman called out the Bruins after the Canucks defeated the B’s, 4-3, Saturday at TD Garden. Both Milan Lucic and Brad Marchand were tossed from the game, and Bieksa offered his thoughts afterwards.

“We play hard, but we are a disciplined team,” Bieksa said. “That’s what separates us from them. They obviously play hard, but they tend to do stupid things. The Marchand hit was a pretty stupid thing and I’m sure he’ll be getting a phone call for that one. There is no reason for that. But we made them pay for that. We got to score two goals on that power play and that’s the game. He’s got to live with that.”

Bieksa has been outspoken against the Bruins since the two teams met in the Stanley Cup finals last season. The defenseman made fun of the Bruins for passing around Andrew Ference‘s jacket, saying the tradition was something that pee-wee teams do. He also responded to Mark Recchi calling the Canucks “arrogant” by saying the retired forward should “take a nap.”

    I love how “we are too chickensh*t to fight” can be spun by the Canucks into “we are diciplined!” Only in Canada!

  • KCF

    Hey Bieksa, how many Stanley Cups has Vancouver won?

  • Kevster

    Bruins=THUGS

  • Reipold2004

    Bruins=Champs!

  • AG

    As in the words of Kevin Bieksa, Bruins are a bunch of milk hotdogs!

  • Shorelinedigital

    Disciplined at drawing penalties!

  • cky

    Boston are stupid and dirty players!  For example the hit on Miller,Lucic randomly hitting Burrows,the hit on Salo,the hit on Raymond,oh and lets forget the Pacioretty

  • canucks#1

    Got to love you Boston fans.  Nice to see a referee take charge of the game.  The Bruins are goons on skates.  Lucic and Marchand (the rat) are two of the dirtiest players in the league.  Nice to see them get what they deserve.  What a coward Marchand is.  Deliberately injures an opponent.  Nice to see him pay for it with our potent power play.  It is refreshing to see the more talented team win.  It would be great if we get to play the Bruins in the finals this year but I don’t think they will get past the Rangers in the playoffs. 

  • Pam

    He’s fine living with his Stanley cup ring… Mr… We’re disciplined… With your “biting” discipline teammates! JOKE!

  • Kevster

    Awesome win Canucks!

  • Kevster

    Marchand=scum

  • Kevster

    Thank you for your comment! Oh well, we beat the goons anyway!

  • S Gerstel

    Vancouver Cansuckit!!!!!!

  • Wrldchamps04@aol.com

    LOL…no Bieksa, what seperates the two teams are one (NOT YOURS) team HAS a Stanley Cup Championship and one team(YOURS) doesn’t. HAHAHA

  • AG

    Only because we’re not war freaks. Just look at how much better off Canada is, can’t hear them insults over our health care system. Discipline has got this country far. That’s why we can afford real hockey teams… and not just some cheap dirty douchebags who can play hockey.

  • Kevster

    Well said AG!

  • Twincamz0385

    Kevin Bieksa is a terrible defenseman. I have no idea why he’s talking about anything that has to do with the Canucks beating the defensemen since he was the single worst player on the Canucks Finals team. What was he…Minus-4 for game 7 last year. At the end of the day Bruins got the Cup, Canucks have squat! Todays game means nothing anyway…

  • Gb_sevens

    Vancooter = Losers and Rioters. Great city…Yeah a bunch of cunts…

  • Kevster

    Your right…todays game doesn’t mean a lot, but it sure is nice to see how mad it made all the Boston fans! Go Canucks!

  • AG

    Kevin Bieksa? Terrible defenseman? For a defenceman who sent the Canucks into Playoffs, terrible is far from what he is. Stanley Cup playoffs Game 5 OT against San Jose Sharks. Nobody knew where the puck was except Bieksa. He sent the Canucks into the playoff. You have no idea what you’re talking about. Shut your mouth. 

  • AG

    That’s pathetic, is that the best you can do? Please, you’re only insulting yourself.

  • Kevster

    Angry much?

  • Wildmans8

    Ag
    Your an idiot …..canucks are the biggest pussies in the Nhl….no one respects them

    Csc

  • Gb_sevens

    A bunch of losers and rioters. Vancooter Pussies..

  • OURPEBBLES

    THEY COULD ONLY SCORE ON THE POWER PLAY!! THE REFS GAVE THEM THE WIN..THEY CAN’T SCORE 5 ON 5 THEY NEED THAT EXTRA GUY

  • InbredBostonian

    Any time I feel sad I watch Rome’s hit on Horton in last year’s finals.  He looks so peaceful!

  • Kevster

    Our guys went toe to toe with their thugs today! Oh wait…their whole team is comprised of thugs! Oh well we beat the lowlifes!

  • Canada hater

    Typical Canadien they have always been cowards and always will be. Thanks for the Cup, I pray we play the Cunucks again for the Cup in Canada and win. I loved watching them torch their own city. Priceless,

  • StanleyCupBruins

    Haha funny you mention that hit. The hit that turned the series around and showed what pussies the Canucks really are. Keep cheap shotting and running from fights.

  • AG

    Wildmans8, what you said is not even worthy of a comeback. Let me know when you have something better to say. And just to add on your bit of knowledge (which is clearly lacking), Canucks are world class hockey team. We get people from all over the world coming to Vancouver just to watch a Canucks game.  But clearly you didn’t know that because you’re so much more of an idiot than you claim I am. 

  • black&yellow

    That’s an awful lot of smack talk from a team that was favored to win the Stanley Cup and didn’t and then won a regular season game today. You got a 5-3 after the brawl for some reason which no one is able to figure out. So good for you, you got a win that the refs helped ya get. I have full confidence that if we were to meet again we would take the Cup again. Now I’m gonna go back into my New England sports championship basement and look at all the BRUINS STANLEY CUP CHAMPS memorabilia that is all over the place. So shut your pie holes!

  • AG

    It’s pathetic how big shot Boston is now that they have the Stanley Cup. Other than that, what else do you guys have to brag about? Oh yeah, that’s right… nothing.

  • Rocher

    The canucks barely got excited over the win at the end of the game. Just another day in the office. The bruins and fans on the other hand are all livid over a one game loss…

  • black&yellow

    Hello AG, follow sports much? In just the last 10 years: 3 Superbowl Championships, 2 World Series Championships, 1 NBA Championship to go along with that Stanley Cup that our team took from YOUR team. Your team that was favored to win, your team that had home ice advantage. So what in the world do you have brag about? What a complete idiot!

  • Rocher

    Don’t you think its time you moved out of your parents basement?

  • black&yellow

    It is MY basement. I own the house!

  • Bigjat3533

    Louango what a joke he is his teammates must be ashamed

  • black&yellow

    Cheap shot, refuse to drop the gloves and skate away. 

  • black&yellow

    Great game bobby lou, do you need someone to pump your tires for how well you rode the pine?

  • thomas

    Well kevin B,

    You have to live with yourself too. Let’s see:

    1. Your Canucks might play hard, some of your teamates also bite hard.
    2. How’s it been living with the fact that your team got your buts kicked and lost game 7 at home? Where were all your smart plays that night? Oh yea and that little pesky Marchand guy tooled you and as a result he has a ring and you don’t. How the hell do you live with yourself?
    3. Your team has no backbone. You start fights you c
    Won’t finish. You ought to be embarrassed by your team. If you want to talk the talk and then back out you just look like a bunch of panzies. It is a reflection of your team and its coach and its leadership.
    4. Just like your fans who destroyed your city in disappointment your just a bunch of cry babies.

  • John L.

    Can’t wait to see em in the playoffs. It was nice to watch them cry on home ice again during the NESN game 7 replay this afternoon…

  • Jon

    What kinda pansy team goes 5 on 1 at thornton up against their own bench! And then refuses to fight 1 on 1

  • Msamson1427

    …it was Vancouver that tore its city apart, correct. Brilliant comparison.

  • Djbeanisabafoon

    well if canada needs divers for the olympic teams, no need for tryouts, just watch a montreal vs van game…

  • Joansaviskoff

    Its Just all the inbreeding that gets me in the usa

  • Kevster

    Learn to spell dum dum. Your parents must be ashamed

  • Kevster

    thomas is just a litlle upset his almighty Bruins lost. Hey Thomas I think I hear your mommy calling. Get over it loser

  • Kevster

    The Canucks went toe to toe with all the lowlife Boston thugs. And didn’t lose any fights idiot!

  • Kevster

    Ha ha good one! I agree!

  • Kevster

    Boston fans are such an angry bunch aren’t they. You fellas forget to take your meds today?

  • Siochain

    Not from Boston, or a Bruins fan. Every hockey fan knows the Canucks are a joke. The only thing they are disciplined at are faking injury and ducking out of fights they instigate. They would never win a game if they didn’t play dirty. Hear that Canucks? JOKE of the NHL.

  • Cd Handel

    Bieksa is an idiot

  • Thomas

    Kevster, You crack me up. With all the effort you are putting in here I think you’re the one upset. You still re-living the pain of that game 7 loss? In addition, you add nothing to the conversation. You just post little mindless snipets. You’re a funny man, no doubt about that. Keep up the good work.

    I am sure you’ll reply with some mindless put down. At least try to get a bit more creative, and don’t be so damn predictable.

  • EarlSweatshirt

    Does your city riot for regular season wins?

  • Kevster

    Look Thomas, congratulations on the cup win. All I’m saying is that the Bruins are a dirty team. They love inflicting pain on other teams. Just watch the downright dirty hits! Can you even argue they are dirty? They lost tonights game because the Canucks played a more disciplined game. Are the Canucks a better team? Tonight they were, and I’m sure you would agree. There how is that for creative Thomas. By the way, I was just writing these to see if any of you sore losers would respond!

  • 2012 is our CUP !!

    Bruins = LOSERS………always they can’t play a fare Game. If they tried they never make the play offs. And this year they best pack it in early! before they get Hurt :)

  • Thomas

    I’m not sure that I follow your logic. Are you saying that the Bruins are “cheap dirty douchebags” because they are American? But almost all of the players on the Bruins are from Canada, in fact, only three are Americans. Are all the Canadien players on the Bruins Douchbags? Is this just because they play for an American team? Why hate so much?

    How about you Canuck fans take a closer look at the Bruins run last season? I think they won 3 seven game series and countless overtime games. Doesn’t sound like a bunch of douchebags. Sounds like a group of guys completely committed to the cause. Sounds like something any hockey fan should be able to admire. And the B’s were underdogs the whole way. On paper they shouldn’t have even come close to beating your team. But that’s why we play the games, isn’t it?

    You won today. Good for you.

    I concur that war stinks and that the American health care system is very faulty. Not sure how that fits into a discussion about a hockey game?

    There’s room in the world for everyone, my friend. Peace to you.

  • Hello

    Really? That’s what you’re going to whine about. The Bruins suck and your healthcare system sucks and you go to war too much? Come on, it’s a hockey not a United Nations summit.

  • Gman

    To Vancouver, a clean check is a dirty hit, you pussies. Weise is the biggest coward in the NHL, challenging Thornton and running to his bench behind the refs. We can play 5 on 5 better than anyone in the NHL. You pussies needed the refs. Marchand shouldn’t have gotten a penalty. Salo was going after him and he was defending himself and the refs got mad because Salo got egg in his face. I hope we meet you cowards again in this year’s Stanley Cup Finals so we can clean the ice with you again.

  • 2012 is our CUP !!

    Bruins …again are Losers PERIOD. If they came to play a Game of HOCKEY They would of never Gotten the Cup, They are the worse Cheaters..DIRTY DIRTY PLAYERS of all Teams. They will not make it to the finals !!!!! CRY ON BUDDY !

  • 2012 is our CUP !!

    Canucks Don’t Play a Dirty Game . They come To Play Hockey !! And that Cup is Ours…..WE will NOT STEAL or BRAKE BONES …Canucks only want the cup if its a FARE GAME, How Can Boston Sleep at Night knowing they only got it because of all the Dirty playing to GET IT VERY SAD IN THE HOCKEY WORLD !!!!!! Go Join The Boxing Rink see how long you last you fu*k’s. LOSERS !!!

  • Thomas

    Dirty? Both teams play a bit dirty. Through the eyes of any fan the opposing team plays dirty. This is especially true when there is a heated rivalry, as is the case with these teams. We do not see the game as clearly when there is so much emotion. I disagree that one team is dirtier than another. We can agree to disagree I am sure.

    I can’t read all of your posts, but that was the best one I have read. I just wanted to see if you could write something of more substance. You did. Peace to you.

  • Jimmy Freeze

    Kevster you must be concussed or on drugs…The Canucks go toe to toe with anyone?…
    Canucks are the are the dirtiest, cheapest, divingest bunch of frauds…you talk aout how Canada is so flipping good…3/4 of Canada wanted the Canucks to lose, because they are jerks…

  • Kevster

    Ok there Gman! You think bowling a player practically on his head doesn’t warant a penalty? Salo was injured because of the big thug Marchand and you don’t think that was even a minor penalty? With people like you out there, God help us all! We won tonight fair and square! Get over it!

  • T Redneck

    disciplined team??? whole Vancouver was disciplined after  game 7…. only way how to beat Bruins to play 5 – 3 (canadiens have this oportunity on every single game against B’s), stupid was a call against Lucic (NHL already make a anoucment!! that was mistake!) ah how many guys jump on S.T., 5-6 ??? and Canucks ended up with powerplay??? so end of day how they beat B’s 5 on 5 ??? I’m sorry how many “Cups” won Canucks ??? who is Bieksa ??? doe’s he live with women or men ??? he looks like homo to me…+ those 2 sisters…. hm… now I undestand why refs like this team….

  • Jimmy Freeze

    Hey B&Y…his problem is that in Canada they only have hockey and curling…plus, he has to spend the rest of his time waiting in line for his govt sponsored health care appointment, or in the slammer after the latest riot or civil unrest.   People don’t come from all over the world to see the Canucks…they come to Vancouver to celebrate anarchy/destruction of property….”but, the scenery is nice”…

  • Kevster

    Hate to break it to you Jimmy, but I don’t have a concussion nor do I do drugs. Ya one of our players taunted one of yours tonight, then backed down, but all the other fights were toe to toe and they were all pretty much a draw. Just watch the highlights from tonight and tell me your allmighty Bruins didn’t prove they are the Nhl’s biggest thugs. They should all get anger management for god’s sake. And I never sid anything about how Canada is so flipping good, but now that you mentioned it, we are the best country in the world in my opinion!

  • jimmybenj

    funny how bieksa doesn’t mention his awful backchecking on the marchand and krejci goals

  • JamesBrownaa

    Aside from Weiss goading Thorton, the Canucks answered every bell, played a more disciplined game, rocked Boston on the pp making them pay for their dirty, classless play, took the 2 pts and we’ve moved on.  As it turns out by the media coverage and fans boards, this game was a MUCH bigger deal in Boston than Vancouver.  You were just a pit stop on the way to Florida.  Good talk though Bri!

  • JamesBrownaa

    It figures that you would have a clue what “disciplined” means, you probably also think that ignorant is an insult, yet you proved it’s a state of mind.  BTW, how is that recession, you know the one that us gutless Canadians were smart enough to avoid.  That’s because we are financially “disciplined”

  • JamesBrownaa

    Sure seams like it does, why else would you Bruins fans be acting like the schoolyard bully that got punched out by the smart kid.  Ya ya, well we won the Cup 6 months ago, you didn’t….ha ha ha, mensa called, they need you for a juxtaposition.

  • Jausten2006

    The Bruins rely too heavily on dirty hits and cheap shots. It sure outshines whatever skill they’ve got and doesn’t generate a lot of respect.

  • Marchand’s Evil Twin

    Saying Canada isn’t a bunch of war freaks is the understatement of the year. On a good day our Salvation Army could kick Canada’s arse !! And you know it’s true ! The Bruins aren’t all talk, that’s all that ever comes out of Vancouver is cheap chatter, no actions ! Lotsa talent on the ‘nucks, just no balls ! If your team would have kept their traps shut and toughened up against the B’s, maybe the cup would be in Canada right now, but NO ! Ya see,real men stand up for themselves, the Olsen twins have no sack ! And as for cheap shot, dirty players, take a look around your own locker room first before pointing the finger. You’ll find no biters in Boston chump ! ….. and lastly, you are right, our health care system sucks !….. BTW, Lord Stanley doesn’t like pussies !!!!!

  • Mjc2370

    why dont you go burn down your city again JACKASS. Do you know who talks after a regular season game a loser. Vancouver are a bunch of pu**y’s. Luongo sharted in his pants and sat on the bench. Open your eyes Canuckleheads I’d be pissed if my team was talking after a game in January. Bieska was rountinely used as a turnstyle during our pounding of the Sally Sisters and that gutless squad. Ive said this many times as long as your teams top players are the Sally Sisters no chance. You enjoy your regular season win why I enjoy our STANLEY CUP LOSERS

  • mjc

    all I know is he’d be a 4th d man on the B’s

  • Mjc2370

    what does Vancouver have moron besides a city full of ash

  • Lucic for president

    Yeah. Our healthcare is so bad, the Quebec pm came to the is for surgery. Idiots up there.

  • Sedin sister s—

    I love all the hosers from the great white north sitting in the rubble that was gastown calling boston goons. Did Boston riot when the pats lost the Super Bowl? They have 0 cred and now that Lucic has been reversed. Hey Vancouver after that showing, you don’t deserve anything as important as the cup. Enjoy the lame win. You’re still losers even though you won a game which you were dominated in. I’d say see you in the spring but you bunch of girls ain’t getting out of the west. Dont you have better things to do like burn a police car or smash and loot a store?

  • Lucic for president

    We’re dirty when 6, count them 6 players jump 1 of ours? Man are you delusional. Go back and burn a police car or loot a store idiot.

  • Lucic for president

    They don’t have a military because they’ll come crying to us for help if anything started. The only reason they sit up there do comfortably is because WE are next door.

  • Lucic for president

    Cheap shots like a stick to the neck followed by a six on 1 fight? Cheap like that? Or biting a finger? Oh, maybe spearing someone in the balls down by 4 goals with 5 minutes left in game 7? That kind of dirty cheap play? Is that what you mean?

  • Gman

    Fair and square to you is having the refs on your side. The NHL said it themselves that Lucic shouldn’t have gotten a penalty. Speaking of Lucic and Marchand, Dan Hamhuis put the same hit on Lucic in game 2 last year and Lucic was the one that got a penalty. I’d tell you to go figure if you weren’t so pro Canad-uh!!

  • Olivies2000

    Bieksa doen’t fight because he doesn’t want to dis-figure his beautiful face
    (insert sarcasm here)! Dude you make millions get a face lift!

  • Olivies2000

    Canucks are a snap shot of their city what a bunch of losers I mean
    really rioting after a loss……….

  • Bruins77

    You all call Marchand dirty, look at Burrows there is one of the dirtiest players in the league. Marchand did what his coach told him to do protect yourselve and if it brings a suspension time will tell, but as you can see Salo was going for the hit and had no intentions of playing the puck.  It is unfortunate for you canuck fans but Marchand made a move before Salo had a chance to do his hit.  All we can hope for is a rematch in the final, but Vancouver had better look close there are a lot of really good teams in the west, so don’t think your there until you are there just like the Bruins. 

  • Bruins77

    I just want to let everyone take look at this and enjoy:
    http://www.sportsnet.ca/gallery/2012/01/07/stanley_cup_revisited/

  • Lucic for president

    Such as spearing McQuaid in the pills with 5 minutes to play in a lost game 7? Dirty like that? Or like biting a finger. I’m confused with your definition of dirty. Can you elaborate. That means explain to you week minded idiots. P.s. where did the Quebec pm go for medical care? Oh yeah, Boston and NYC. Great Canadian system. Free healthcare, but $12 six packs of beer.

  • guest

    Are you serously calling Marchand a coward when Vancouver players don’t fight unless its 6 to 1

  • AS

    Are you seriosly bringing in healthcare in this….Canada isn’t better off anyways the only thing your country is known for is maple syurp and skiing

  • Bruins77

    You can all fight about the 2 countries all you want, I am from Alberta, Canada neighbors to British Columbia, but I am going to put down my Full 60 to History book down and put on my Milan Lucic jersey and head up town to go shopping and come back in a bit and see how many more posts there are about our fine countries.  see ya

  • Kimmi

    yah the beer $$ up here are nuts

  • Cwheatley82

    Uhmm lets look at the hit on Lucic by “hammer” in the playoffs last season, and see the difference. THERE IS NONE. Canucks barely beat Boston, with two of their top players kicked. The whole game was a joke, from the missed icing call form the officials to the penalties on both sides. Frankly, Shanahan needs to look at everything with a neutral eye, and realize that just because a player gets injured on a hit doesnt make it dirty. Marchand was protecting himself and his head. Salo, decided at last second to not take the hit, and turned his body so he went over backwards, it was dumb for both of them, but THAT IS HOCKEY. The NHL has done a great thing with the rule revisions to speed the game up, but their “NEW” policing effort is getting a little ridiculous. There needs to be some kind of recognition of when REFS blow a call BIG TIME. Like throwing a player from the game in the first period, for something that wasn’t a call to begin with. For the record, I am a Canadian, and a Bruins fan. Frankly the Canucks have represented themselves as a bunch of piss poor sports, who will whine and cheat ‘their own way”. They are taking the honor out of the game, pretending to drop gloves! cmon now, I hope Boston shows some mercy in their next meeting, and the refs show some sense of neutrality.

    and the most important thing we send you are good canadian born hockey players so that you can compete in the wonderful NHL

  • Anonymous

    Bieksa is gonna be the one taking an ice nap when Quaider invites him to dance at our next meeting.  The Marchand hit was completely legal.  See Rule 44.  His principal point of contact with Salo was his thigh.  That’s not clipping, per the rule.  The refs blew this one entirely, as it was a clean hit, just like Hamhuis’ hit on Lucic in the Finals was also a clean hit.

  • Anonymous

    Oh yeah, Mark Recchi’s name is embossed in the Tiffany Sterling Silver of Lord Stanley’s Cup three (3) times.  How many times does one find Kevin Bieksa’s name in scouring the Cup?   A big, fat Canadian “goose egg” a/k/a “0″ a/k/a NONE.  He’s a good defenseman, but we’ll listen to his rantings about Recchi when he has three rings.

  • Kimmi

    wow this just keeps draggin on  the Thugs lost big deal..I remember more witty comments on my high school bathroom wall

  • Matt

    I disagree with some of his comments, but everyone has their opinion. It’s hilarious how some of you are condemning him, and I’m not surprised. You probably haven’t even watched him play. He’s a hell of a player. I’d take him on the B’s in a heartbeat. 

  • Jamesu

    funny he should talk. He had a hit in the third period that was clearly a boarding call, just not called. The hit Marchand did is called a hip check. Happens all the time in hockey. Not sure why they think it was even a penalty. But the part that confuses me is Lucic was thrown for coming off the bench however at one point there were six Canucks on Thornton and one standing to greet incoming Bruins. So seven Canucks. Why no penalty of any type there?

  • Mike

    Funny that most of Canada routed for the Bruins in the Cup…Gotta love Weise..wanted no part of Thornton…Six on 1…That’s the way the Sedin sisters like it…Nevre willing to the drop the stick…

  • Aamesbr9

    All you need to know about your Healthcare is your Prime Minister came to NEW YORK for an operation last year. Hmm. At home it is free, but he paid the whole bill in NEW YORK.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_65YD5M3SQ4727UEUXRDOW7ETZY shnitzel

    we should talk about “stupid” marchand made bieksa looks on the goals he scores while they share the ice…the little rat owns him

  • Ben

    This Boston goon crap is getting old.  There is a difference between good physicality and dirty hockey and, for the most part, the Bruins are pretty damn good at telling the difference; I can’t say the same for the Canucks. The Bruins weren’t the ones instigating most of the fights after the whistle, despite what you Vancouver homers seem to think.  I fail to see how 6 guys jumping 1 guy should result in a 5 on 3 powerplay for the the team pathetic enough to do that.  Sure Marchand’s hit was unnecessary, but when you consider all of the slashing (Burrows, and even Kesler did quite a bit), yapping (Bieksa and Weise), and diving (Most of the team) that the Canucks were doing, and the fact that none of the Canucks were willing to even drop the gloves with Thornton or McQuaid, and Weise was even wimpy enough to back down from a fight he agreed to, then it is kind of stupid how many of you are spinning the story of the “high and mighty” Canucks confronting the “bully” Bruins.  Sure, I would have liked a win, but I am willing to take the loss, because the Bruins were still the cleaner, hard-nosed team, unfortunately they just did not do good enough of a job on the PK.  What we saw the other day was not the refs “finally calling a clean game” as many of you are claiming, but rather the refs calling a bad game which resulted in a Canucks victory.  So congrats on the win, but please stop deluding yourselves.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_65YD5M3SQ4727UEUXRDOW7ETZY shnitzel

    pfft” the better team”? thats a luagh
     the bruins DOMINATED 5 on 5 play…the only hope the canucks have is if the bruins continue to play undisciplined (which they won’t because coach julien will get it together)

     you probably didn’t think they’d get past your nucks last year…seriously you and the other 5 stooges need a new act.

  • Quazimoto

    So let me get this straight. It’s now illegal to avoid a check going low??? Hmmm. Guess they now want hockey to become a sport where you get hit because you can’t avoid a hit that you see coming??? Anyone else find this interesting???

    Ahhh yea the city of GIRLYMEN!!!!

    Dont forget that your best players are all Canadian

    As a rule, hockey teams are reflective of their coach. Bruins stand up for themselves and for their teammates. Canucks cower at confrontation. I agree the Marchand play was a penalty. But here’s the thing…Canucks players watch Salo get upended and hurt, and not one comes to his aid. Completely unacceptable. Cup finals, Marchand punching Sedin in the face. No one does a thing. Completely unacceptable. Vigneault is a puss. So his team is a puss. They take dives, bite, start what they can’t finish. It’s a disgrace. How can any red-blooded Canadien respect them is beyond comprehension. No backbone.

    Chara has to be the ugliest player on skates.

  • Blah

    self defense…if anybody really believes this horseshit best give your head a shake lol…what a load of crap. Marchand best be getting a hefty suspension for that. as for the comment below me, typical american responce, all that matters is the W, which we got :) . your team couldnt hack it so they had to result to dirty plays in hopes of retaliation to win. we didnt bite, but we hurt ya on the score board instead. your own stupidity proved to be your downfall. youll get yours you bruin rats.

  • Blah

    typical american responce. all that matters is the W, we outsmarted you, plain and simple.

  • guest

    “typical american responce”? I’m Canadien butt head. Your team got the win, but lost the cup because they got no fight and no heart. Plain and simple.

  • bleh.

    For one, every team dives. Not just the Canucks. Lappiere
    and burrows tend to run their mouths at times, I get where that would make you
    mad. Sometimes Lu can say the absolute wrong thing at the wrong time, but who
    the hell doesn’t? Because the Sedin’s don’t fight, that makes them not tough?
    Are you kidding me.. There other players in the league that don’t fight. Bieksa
    can get a little cocky at times, but most times he back his stuff up. So many
    people are saying he can’t fight but as I’ve stated before look at that guys
    fight card if you want proof that the guy can fight. And he can fight GOOD.  Last year we won our division, conference, the
    league, went the the finals, had a ton of players who got trophies and were 60
    minutes away from winning it all, But fell short. This year at this point we’re
    first in our division, conference, and second in the entire league. Sedins are
    2nd and 3rd in the scoring race, But still, they gain no
    credit FROM ANYONE. The bottom line is, people just hate when other teams are
    successful. I’ve seen so many people bring up the riots sense they happened. but i think they’re all forgetting that Vancouver is NOT the only city to ever have had a riot before. So just drop the riots, it’s getting very old.

    The answer is: how many Staney Cups has Vancouvers deserved?:  AT least  2; Unfortunately somehow the referees believe their payroll is paid from the East (read Chicago and Boston)!!

  • Chrisburrows78

    look up boston celtics riots

  • BlueGreenHealer

    What’s your point? , besides the one on top off your head?

  • Cunner21

    @ Brian.  Marchand and Lucic are both Canadian so easy. 

  • JonnyBeanTown

    Hahaha I love how he says Marchand has to live with the loss. Ahhahahahahah oh no! Not a regular season meaningless game Kevin . How bout living with never winning the cup cause that’s your life.

    Oh and by the way Recchi finally got that nap. After 3 cups he just sleeps like a baby.

  • Cory Ducey

    I find all of this hilarious….Biotcha was flapping his gums none too much with the B’s took the Cup.  Speak when the game actaully means something, bud.

  • Tom7

    whats dirtier, biting or hitting a guy in the thighs? or maybe if 7 guys jumped Salo thatd be ok? People who live in glass houses….

  • Qbarrel

    Yes. You beat the “Goons” in a regular season, non-divisional, non-conference, matinee game for two points out of a possible 162. Congratulations. I guess that this lessens the sting of having said “Goons” hand you your lunch and basically take the Stanley Cup (to which you and every analyst felt you were somehow entitled to without having to earn it) from your grasp. Again, congrats to you and your charred city.

  • Qbarrel

    Correction, two pts out of a possible 164

  • Qbarrel

    Bieksa = overrated loudmouth

  • Qbarrel

    Ummmm…..Patriots (3 SB championships & 4 appearances in last 10 years), RedSox (2 MLB championships in last 10 years), Celtics (1 NBA championship & 2 appearances in last 10 years).  So Vancouverite, what do you have to brag about in the last 10 years?? Tell ya what, since I am feeling charitable today, I’ll even expand your window to 20 years. Now what do you have? Oh, right 2 Stanley Cup appearances, 2 losses, 2 bad.
