Yay!
the team with the most Canadians on it won!
Congrats Boston! The best team won.
this is the highest the cup has ever been...
@ehBeth,
Isn't that all the hockey teams?
I think I know why the Bruins lost game 5 - some one stole John Adams shirt.
Fortunately another quick thinking resident of Quincy adored John with a new shirt prior to game 6 and he was still wearing it last night when I drove by. You can't lose with President Adams supporting you.
@Linkat,
Article of this horrible theft.

I was fortunate enough to witness the dressing of Mr. Adams with the original Bruins shirt. He seemed very happy and pleased with the outfit. See how proudly he wears it.
@Linkat,
My son tells me that the NHL consists of about 55% Cdns, 15-20% each of Americans and Europeans. Boston, they say, has the most Cdns of any team.

That's the way! Keep your spirits up, Mame!
Q: What time is it in Vancouver?
A: Twenty past Luongo.
@George,
Now, Mame will think that both of us are obnoxious, George.
I do want to say that it is beautiful in Vancouver. My daughter sent me photos when a televison show she worked for was filming there.
Can you take me off ignore, Mame?
I felt bad for the 'Nucks. They just couldn't take the Bruins physical play any longer...they were just too beat up.
I started watching Chara in game 5. I had never heard of him before. He's a marvelous defense-man. He's gotta be 6'6".

Actually he's 6'9'' and somewhere north of 250 pounds.
@George,
When he got smacked down in the second period ...as he was getting back up he looked like Lurch from the Addams Family
@George,
That's like the other current sports one-liner about LeBron:
Q: Why can't you ask LeBron James for change for a dollar?
A; Because he can't find the fourth quarter.
Thomas stood on his head, no doubt about it, and the Bruins took away the ice the Sedins et al needed - they were the better team and they wanted the win more. They deserved it. And they certainly didn't deserve the disgusting fan behaviour in the rink during the ceremonies - all that booing. We should be ashamed of ourselves. Well, THEY should - I wasn't there, thank goodness. Not that I would have booed anyway, as I said, they played better.
And now it's coming out that the riot was the work of organized rioters who were at the Olympics (too much security going on there) and the G-20. They were masked in black. A few locals maybe got wound up, but apparently there was a truck with a firebomb set to go off at the very beginning of the night, indicating it didn't matter who won the game.
Wandy starts everything, George. And you're both obnoxious!!
@George,
You're welcome... I know you like it.
