Fin Out: Vancouver Loses Game Seven

Back in the whaling era, after a crew successfully harpooned a whale they'd let the creature swim violently in a circle before finally dying, its last movement being a beat of the tail and a single "fin out", the final act before the whale expired.
You may as well learn a thing or two on an obituary post. Think of it as help for your next bar trivia outing. You're welcome.
So about game seven...
Congratulations to the Bruins and their fans. Once we remove all the extra curricular activities and frankly the media embarrassment all over the place, they were simply the better team and should have the Cup. Tim Thomas deserves the Conn Smythe and the Vezina soon afterwards. Simply a fantastic player. A special shoutout to Bergeron who came alive after his injury and when they needed him. Marchand - though a disgusting puke of a player - had the puck on a string. It all came together for their team when it mattered and that's what counts. They deserve their moment.
On to Vancouver...this sucks. I mean this really sucks. It's beyond words, no way around it. In this final round they played what I'd call bipolar hockey which was a bad way to dance with the devil. They never owned the inside lanes, they lost their neutral zone dominance, they dealt with too many injuries, Luongo wasn't strong when they needed him and they'll celebrate their 40th year like all 40 before it: a disappointing ending. These aren't excuses, just facts. If they wander the desert again and it takes many years to get back to this moment, you'll remember this game for all the wrong reasons.
It's going to be too easy for the world to dump on Vancouver. Own a stiff upper lip because the haters are going to hate something fierce. So be it.
At the same time, let's celebrate what we were treated to this season. First and foremost they were within 60 minutes of the Cup. That comes on the heels of their Presidents' Trophy (54-19-9), their Western Conference championship, Northwest championship, 363 consecutive sellouts, one Art Ross Trophy, one Jennings Trophy, one Hart nomination, one Vezina nomination, one Selke nomination, one Jack Adams nomination and one GM of the Year nomination. I'm probably missing some other records in there but let's just high five Dickens when we take shelter behind "it was the best of times, it was the worst of times."
Most of this core is locked up and they have some kids chomping at the bit. The future is bright, they know painfully what it takes and can rise from the ashes better than anyone. But that will sound better in September. For now it feels hollow and it'll be a long road to redemption...
...and we'll be there every step of the way. Guaran-fucking-tee it.
Go Canucks.

Congrats to the Bruins
especially Thomas. He was our kryptonite. He deserves the accolades he gets. Lucic, too. At least he is a local. ;)
Yeah, Thomas was PHENOMENAL.

nope sorry I did not see any of those as soft goals.
Lou played amazing all year and Lou deserves respect
Lou played amazing all year and Lou deserves respect
Respect is earned, not bestowed. Thomas went out and earned it. Thomas also didn’t talk the talk so he could have lost and still been a winner. Luo, he talked the talk but couldn’t back it up. That’s the sad fact, and now, the issue is what to do with him.

Lu took us out of all 3 games in Boston
No chance to win thanks to his shit play.

And he should ask for a trade, he’s done here.
If the Canucks have to eat part of his salary to move him, so be it.

Wow

No
sorry can’t hang with that one I think Vancouver has enough pests,anymore and we need to call Orkin lol
I have no tolerance
for this fucknut…. Marchand, no matter how much skill, is a douchebag of the first order.
I have maintained satellite and NHL center ice subscriptions in two countries since center ice became available so i can watch all Van games no matter where I am… If they grabbed a full on douche like Marchand I dont know how I could continue to justify that.
PS
Let me be one of the first to say what a bunch of classless goons to the opportunists (no true fan would do this) who are lighting cars on fire and vandalizing the streets of Vancouver.
What fucking retards… burn your own city because the Nucks lost.
Like I said, clearly opportunists… not fans.
They played a great game
I am not disappointed in the boys in this game at all. They just couldn’t get it past Thomas tonight.
I am proud of the crowd at the arena cheering for the boys and cheering even for the Bruins during the conn smyth presentation. I suspect they were cheering during the cup presentation as well but the BOOOOS for Bettman overroad that
The boys played their hearts out, they left it all on the ice and I am proud of this team
Well folks, it was a great journey
Boston played a great game and a great series, and honestly were the better team this series. There was no conspiracy or ref bias, the Bruins just played amazing, and the Canucks (specifically Luongo) did not.
Going to be a hard pill to swallow, but let’s get it next year

I don’t deny that he’s a good goalie, but he’s only good if the defense shows up. One of the biggest differences in this series is that Thomas can steal games, and Luongo can’t
With all this media and all, I wonder if Luongo will request a trade

Hey I just went by whatever the team did and more – we didn’t touch the President’s nor Campbell trophy – if the team wanted the believe in karma then I’ll do the same.
Let’s put it this way, as fans I think we all cheered our hearts out. But the team that showed up in Boston, the politicians, all of these, I don’t like.
And yes I do deal with reality, i was on conference calls with the States during the game.

Gotta admit, I thought the same. NO…NOOOO…opportunistic politicians – I have no time for that shit.
I dunno I just think we need some fresh air.. someone to move their asses! Someone to better develop our youth and not alienate good players like Ballard etc.
Maybe he’s second on the list- I would love for Schneider to somehow be are goalie for the future- but the chances of this are SLIM to none. What can I say… Sorry for baggin on our team, I’m not really that upset I started mourning after game six
Here's to...
Here’s to a great season of hockey! I’m sure the next season will be equally as exciting for the Canucks. At least the Canucks all have their health — can’t put a price on that!

You've earned...
… not nastiness or hatred, but nothing but praise. Anyone who decides to hold it against you, you outlasted Original 6 teams and lost only to those who overcame all odds.
You have EVERY right to be proud of who you are and what you represent. You are one of the steadfasts of the expansion era, and even egotistical maniacs like our team have to admit, your devotion as fans are what allowed hockey to become more than the O6. You are as much a part of the weave that is the hockey world as anyone else, and don’t let ANYONE tell you otherwise.
You EARNED the right to say you played the best during the season. You EARNED the right to say you were right there and had the heart for it, which is more than we can say. You ARE a hockey town personified, and you have nothing you should feel but pride.

Tough loss Vancouver
While I was rooting against your team, I do feel your pain. I honestly thought your boys were going to pull it out for you but it was Tim Thomas to the rescue for the Boston fans. It was a great series to watch from the sidelines. Again, I know what you’re feeling and I’m sure one day you’ll be raising the Cup.
See you guys in the fall.
39 years of pain (1971 loss to Habs) vaporized by one OT goal.
Great season,
disappointing ending. But no reason not to top it next year.
Bruins were the better team, and that’s why, oddly enough, I don’t feel and bitterness. It was far worse in ’94.
“Congrats to the Bruins and their fans, they deserve this!”
Go Canucks, and thank you for all the joy and excitement. You guys still rock!
Los Angeles, CA
Vancouver fans were class and a half tonight
Polite cheering for the Bruins when it was all done, a nice ovation for Thomas, and a very nice ovation for Lucic. After an unusually nasty series, you showed a ton of perspective in defeat.
That is why I often root for Canadian teams in the playoffs, because fans from Canada deserve to cheer on a winner. Now granted, I wish you all took silver in 2010 instead of gold…but that’s neither here nor there. :)
I would like to see the Nucks lift the Cup sometime soon—unless the Devils are in the Final with them.

And I loved when they booed Bettman.

Comparing this to 94
Somehow, this didn’t sting as much as back in 1994, probably because I was younger back then but probably because the game’s outcome was decided before the final minute. It’s funny how karma works – we were competitive in all the games in 94, but not even in half of the games this time around.
Losing in game 7 – will this finally convince our guys to learn the killer instinct?
Or 5 goals in 7 games, which is not just because of Thomas

i didn’t want to mention this during the series, but in a way, Thomas reminded me more of McLean than anyone else. which as a Nucks fan wasn’t that good given our lack of PP or toughness to run him over.

I don't think it was the killer instinct.
It’s just that the Canucks ran out of gas, and the Bruins were tougher. Plain and simple.
The Stanley Cup is not just about who is the best. It’s about who is the toughest.
I really hope that this season (and playoffs) will make the Canucks tougher, as a team. They went through a grueling post season, and experience will be their friend, come next season.

But I have to say it sucks to lose another… Having experienced the same with my Flames.
I also have to credit your fans in the rink, for not only hanging around, but for cheering the Bruins, and giving Thomas a deserved round of cheers. Also, well done on continuing the fine tradition of booing the commish… is their anyone else running a sports league anywhere that takes that much crap? When his mic started working, they just booed louder… AWESOME!
I'll be back next season
You guys are great. I love your team. And I’m sorry for the loss. I’ll sacrifice something up to the hockey gods for your good fortune next season.
I’ll be back next season, long as you’ll have me. And we can talk hockey and love the game. Sad to see the season end.

THIS
I am proud of the Canucks, it was a great run
We also have a strong core that is not going anywhere :)
Canucks players aren't going to stop being good
There’s a lot of depth of talent that isn’t going to vanish in the near future. Every year may not be a stanley cup run, because that’s how that goes. But they aren’t going to stop being good for the forseeable future. Unless there’s some bizarre accident involving a volcano sprouting up through the middle of the rink or something.

But inside the arena? I certainly wouldn’t hope for it to happen . . . I mean unless the Habs were on the ice too. But I mean you gotta take one for the team in that situation. And by team I mean NHL. And by NHL I mean the Bruins.

It’s funny, but the down-to-earth of the blogs makes for both the greatest rivalries (SCH referring to the Wings as “Scum”, our hatred of Pens/Devils, and the voracious Wester Conf debates) and also the best humility. We are the future of hockey reporting. Tough, nasty, but fair and gentlemen(women)ly.
You should all hold your heads up high.
The Canucks had a brilliant season, and I always love to see you guys battle Chicago in the playoffs. The look on Ryan Kesler’s face broke my heart, but he is fantastic player, and (imho) the face of USA Hockey. I also hope that Lu gets lots of rest and relaxation this summer.

Many firsts
This team accomplished numerous things this year that it has never before done in the entire time it’s existed.
And now we will be able to start next year knowing there’s still something for us to do that’s new! Perhaps we’re just rationing our firsts. Why not? It’s how I eat candy.
The team did good. They’ll do good next year too.
No excuses.
If I have one belief in hockey, its that the better team always wins a best of seven.
Congrats to the Bruins, and congrats to the Canucks for the best season in their history.
There’s a good chance they pull a Penguins and end up back in the finals again next year.
Go Nucks go.

We are all Canucks...including Toews, Sharp, Keith, Seabrook, Brian Campbell...need I go on?
How many ppl think...
we could get by with a corey schneider aka gonger jesus for a full season and playoffs as no 1 goalie?
I doubt we could get by like that. Luongo has played equal or better than the goalies in the previous rounds of playoffs, I don’t think we can do much better than that.

Lu is such a strange one
from an outside fan, he sometimes seems so good, sometimes meh, and sometimes OH YE GODS WTF?!? His inconsistency is baffling, and it has to be frustrating…
That's what I've experienced as a new-viewer, yep.
I’m baffled. That’s a great word for it. I don’t know what to think of him. Part of him REALLY pisses me off, but I’m also a Preds fan, and we have Rinne, who tends to be insanely consistent.

-nashvillepredators-
posted too soon, sorry...
…consistent, so I would speculate that living with Rinne skews how I view every other goalie…
Every time I step up in the building, everybody's hands go UP..... AND THEY STAY THERE.
-nashvillepredators-
I think that Lu has all of the tools to be an elite, consistent goalie.
But I think that he needs to work on his mental toughness. I believe that he convinced himself that he couldn’t play in Boston, and he appeared to have psyched himself out tonight. He could probably benefit from seeing a sports psychologist (I’m not sure if he has already done this).
All of this is speculation, of course, and I don’t mean to offend anyone!

We could get to the playoffs
And lose in whatever round we faced that season’s Thomas/Rinne. If this series proved anything, it’s that an ace- not just really good, but a near-deity- goalie is the most crucial part of victory.
I seriously thin we could do it.
Especially with this years experience….I mean, game 6 of the SCF?!?!

You’ll be back next year and your stars will be that much hungrier because they know how close they came. I don’t like our odds in a rematch.
BTW, kudos to the Vancouver organization for playing “Dirty Water” for the Bruins fans and to the Vancouver fans for cheering once they got over booing Betmann.
Oh, I don’t think he’s going anywhere, he didn’t get into the NHL until his 30’s he ain’t quitting now.
I don't mean he's going anywhere
I just mean he might be a tiny bit slower, that’s all.
GOODBYE LUONGO!
It's the Sedins that'll be different
If they’re going to be the stars they have the talent to be, they’ll look at their mistakes from this series and come back stronger next year. Not necessarily in the regular season but in tough playoff series like this one you’ll see the difference. However, I fully expect Thomas to be just as badass net year.

a lot of Luongo’s failings in Game 4 in my view came directly as a result of a gassed defense.
As much as I think Luongo is not IDEAL for this team...
I do believe hell be back next year (unfortunately)
I'm so sorry for you guys.
It hurts so much to lose like that. You had a fantastic year (and fortunately you won’t need to see your team completely disassembled like poor Chicago had to do after last year). Unfortunately the fantastic year is really hollow right now, and nothing can help that but time.
I hope everyone downtown stays safe, and you watch your team have a quiet offseason so they can all get healed up and go at it next season.
Congratulations for a great hockey season with a lot to be proud of.

Tomorrow the sun will rise and we’ll wake up and look forward to the future. It’s time to rosterbate, get reacquainted with our non hockey fan family and friends and see the doctor about any potential heart problems that have developed. Now to figure out what we need to do to go this far next year. I don’t have the answers, but it’ll be interesting to see.
For now, haters gonna hate, but I’m gonna give it up to Beantown and Thomas for the win. They wanted it more which sucks to say. We just seemed to shut down and let them dictate the pace. Something to work on next year.

This guy was on the news later in the night. He had already fought someone, he had a tiny bit of blood on his face, his forehead I think. He was in front of Shark Club and being really aggressive, and then when the bouncers had pushed him back, an older guy was walking towards him, and then the Bruins fan, punched the old guy, and the bouncers knocked him down. That’s when this picture was taken. Maybe he was being bashed by Canuck fans earlier, but from footage I saw, that older guy did nothing to him.

….heading into this series, I never suspected that the Canucks would allow more short-handed goals than they scored PP goals. :(
Blackhawks bleed Red & White.
We are all Canucks...including Toews, Sharp, Keith, Seabrook, Brian Campbell...need I go on?
Yeah I think that’s one of the main reasons we lost. Seems like a lot of people will want to blame Lou but he still had 2 SO this series and we were Shutout in 2 of those games. Hard to win a game when you don’t score.
Yeah
I said early on if we keep losing the special teams battle we’ll lose the series, and we did. It was quite amazing how every dried up this round.

oh well.
i was hoping to see the nucks win a stanley cup before relocating to asia for at least a few years.
for a while i almost felt winning the cup was destined to happen. guess not. congrats to the bruins.
rosterbation starts… now. actually i’ll just state a few obvious:
1) luongo has to got to be more consistent, since he’s not going anywhere. we had 3 chances to take a game in boston, never happened. sure the team didn’t play well, but luongo was shaky.
2) the sedins probably want to develop a new dimension to their game. at 31, probably just wishful thinking, especially offensively. but defensively, at 31, that’s pretty much the only area you can realistically hope for improvement and they need it.
3) back to searching for a 2nd line winger again. we do miss samuelsson, but he’s what, 35 next year? preferably we find somebody with size—kesler is the only sorta power forward we have.
everything else about our team seems okay. we’ll lose a couple d-man, but hopefully develop a couple. our 3rd line will look different next year, but i trust GMMG will do a good job there.
we still have about a 3 year window of competing for the cup, but we do need to give youngsters meaningful ice time to have another shot.
Have an idea, who agrees

I can't believe this is happening in my city
As I left work this afternoon, I assured a young coworker that there wouldn’t be a riot, and encouraged her to visit her friends downtown. I’m sure she’s ok, but I can’t believe how wrong I was.
Nor can I believe how stupid some people are – I just watched footage of a guy the police were trying to arrest. I am a civil libertarian, but they were showing restraint. Two female friends of the guy tried to calm him down and pull him back and he threw one of them to the street. Then they showed footage of people trying to overturn police cars. I despair.

thoughts from the dressing room
sombre as you would expect. no excuses being made, in spite of the injuries that obviously handcuffed them. Henrik, when asked if there was an injury that hampered him replied ‘goal scoring’. Kes was devastated, very soft spoken. will have to listen to the tape to see what he had to say but I couldn’t hear much to be honest. Spoke to Jeff Tambellini for a bit, it was tough for him. Hardest part for me? I was leaving and on my way out and I saw Mason. The kid looked in so much pain, and not just physically. Damn near lost it seeing that… will give you more once I’ve had a chance to sort through it all.

I didn’t see any of this going down, sounds like I got out of the skytrain station just in time. There’s gonna be lots of time to speculate about what to do with this team, let’s save it for another day, please. It’s best to just try and come to grips with this.

Vigneault transcript
An interview with:
COACH VIGNEAULT
THE MODERATOR: Questions for Coach Vigneault.
Q. Alain, did you feel good about tonight the way the game started?
COACH VIGNEAULT: Yeah, I thought, you know, our guys were ready to
play. But you know what, at the end of the day, I’m not going to analyze
this game right now. Everybody is disappointed. Our players gave it their
best shot. At the end of the day, you’ve got to give credit to where
credit is due. Boston played a real strong game.
They have great goaltending and they were able to score a couple of
tough goals around our net and they deserved to win.
Q. Was there a turning point in the series in your mind?
COACH VIGNEAULT: I can’t see one right now. You know at the end of
the day, I think both teams competed real hard. We played well the first
three games in this building and they played real well in their building.
Came down to Game 7 and we weren’t able to get it done.
Q. Alain, which guys were playing with injuries —
COACH VIGNEAULT: Everybody was fine. We’re not going to use
injuries as a reason for not gettin’ it done.
Q. Your inability to score, what do you chalk that up to?
COACH VIGNEAULT: Well, again, I think you’ve got to give credit
where credit is due. Their goaltender was real tough to beat. The way
they played in front of him was real tough to beat.
We had some grade “A” chances and we weren’t able to score.
Q. How would you describe the way they played in front of him? What
do you mean?
COACH VIGNEAULT: Well, they let him obviously take the shooter and
they did a great job of taking care of rebounds when he did give up some
rebounds. They did a good job of collapsing five guys in front and makin’
it real hard.
Q. Alain, is it more difficult because you were the best team all
season, the best scoring team, the best defensive team and you get to the
end and it doesn’t work out? Does that make it more difficult?
COACH VIGNEAULT: I think anybody in our situation right now would
feel real disappointed, whether you’re the favorite or not. We battled
real hard. I know we gave it our best shot, but in this one game, they
were the better team. It’s that simple.
THE MODERATOR: Thanks, Coach.

I don’t think I say oot and aboot but I could be wrong :P
I also sometimes slip into a british accent after living in London for 2 years
Aw, well… that’s close enough! I’ll get a sawed-off shotgun and pull out a Southern accent and yell the same thing, and we’ll both be awesome!

lol I once corrected my boss there on my name – she always called me Leeser (spelled phonetically) and I said actually it’s Lisa. She replied “Oh, but how do you say that with a Canadian accent!?” umm… I just did… I am Canadian…ergo….
That is absolutely hilarious. I love that people think the accent is THAT strong. My parents lived in Montreal for 5-6 years, and my dad still has a little bit of it sometimes, and it’s pretty amusing.

lol yeah it is finny how strong it can stay
and my little nephew already has a British accent lol he’s 2 (well in about 2 weeks anyway)
my sister still lives in London.
But my sis and her husband only have hints of a british accent every now and then. Much like what occasionally pops out of me lol
Yeah, I go to school in Chicago, and whenever I come back from winter/spring/etc. break Tennessee, I always come back with a bit of an accent. My friends think it’s hilarious.

Hawks fan here. I’d like to congratulate you all on a solid season, and on being amazing hockey fans (short of the asshats burning down your city…probably not even fans. I’m guessing refugees from Detroit). Were I able, I’d buy you all beers, but since I can’t:
Good luck in the offseason, and here’s to a Hawks/Nucks WCF next year.
Furious George! What happened to your beautiful face?!?
thanks AJ

There's a huge warning going out
saying the police are going to escalate force in downtown, so I hope no one’s caught down there who isn’t in a sheltered area.
They're talking about deploying tear gas and/or pepper spray.

Botch just tweeted an ugly scene from the dressing room involving Aqualini

I think if I had to deal with the (usually) idiotic questions from the media
I’d be tossing around the f-bombs quite liberally.
"We've made too many compromises already, too many retreats. They invade our space, and we fall back. They assimilate entire worlds, and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far, no further! And I will make them pay for what they've done!" - Captain Jean-Luc Picard
Ugh, live feed is down!
I really hope everything’s okay… I want to know what’s going on.

straight up question
(first of all, let me qualify by saying I’m a Canucks fan, so just asking as a non-resident)
Do you guys think the riots would have gone on win or lose? Alcohol plus crowds plus opportunity and this tends to be the result.
Hindsight is 20/20 but the police should have reverted to Olympics level security for yesterday’s game.
I think it’s possible – hard to know of course
from the stuff I have seen it seems like there were people prepared to start trouble and went downtown with the intent to start stuff – hard to say though if they only intended to start stuff if they lost or would have if they won though I kind of think they would have
Would have happened
no matter what.
