Here, try this Bergeron. Excellent, humorous taunting, Max.

It was not as if Burrows went out of his way to bite some part of Bergeron's anatomy, like an ear.

Bergeron stuck his stinky glove covered finger into Burrow's mouth. Not easy to get that stinky thing out of there. I would expect there is a bit of a gag reflex for one thing. And there is also the protection the hockey glove provides the finger. Good call by the NHL and the referees.

Milbury is way too biased to be commenting on TV. Plus he goes overboard emotionally. Lousy GM. Lousy biased commentator.

I made these up for the game .... new on the menu .... Bruin Fingers ... Canuck Style!

Many internet sources, like this one: http://www.vancouversun.com/sports/Game ... story.html and http://license.icopyright.net/user/view ... NzE2Mjg%3D in which former official Dan Marouelli stated: I think it's a real act of cowardice by Alex Burrows.
It's just a societal aspect that when a man does some "extreme" fighting like biting, he will labeled as a coward. That was very evident when Mike Tyson bit off Holyfield's ear.

Oh, maybe I should have stated little boys instead.

And to Luongo as well after a shaky first round after the Canucks went up 3-0.

I think this series is far from over.

We'll see about game 3. In 2009, the Penguins won it after being behind 2-0 and won it in the end.

nice design.

D - looking good. is that an invitation because we"re comming over baby.

Are you going to bring your 90 year old pappy?

Is it too early to decide who should win the Conn Smythe trophy as the playoff MVP?

Ryan Kesler was certainly the front runner, but now Henrik Sedin leads the playoff points while Daniel Sedin is close behind Kesler and Alexandre Burrows with his important OT goals is fourth among the Canucks. And among the Canucks defensemen, Christian Ehrhoff and Alexander Edler lead although Ehrhoff has played fewer games, and OT hero Kevin Bieksa is right behind, and Luongo leads the goaltenders in terms of wins, shutouts, with a lower GAA than Thomas. That said, I'd say the nod will still go to Kesler over the Sedins with his more goals and better +/-.

Good luck to Luongo has attempts to become to first goaltender to enter the Triple Gold Club of hockey with his two Ice Hockey World Championships and one Olympic gold medal, and now the Stanley Cup.

Speaking of good gestures, nice of Premier Christy Clark to re-light the Olympic cauldron.

Got the game yesterday live - my Sunday morning. US broadcast. OT started and I was on the phone with my wife in Coquitlam where she announces the goal just as Burrows goes behind the net - seems there is a delay here in Hong Kong.

If there is one thing that the Gillis era has done that has been huge for the team and the players it was to get Kesler and Burrows off the agitating stuff to just focus on playing. It took Gillis a bit longer to get it right with Luongo who seemed to be able to play when he decided. I give Gillis a lot of credit for changing his errors including like making his Goalee the Captain as well as firming up that AV is his coach. Not often these new GMs like another GMs coach.

This is the most talented Canucks compared to the prior two Stanley Cup finalists.

Zark, I wish you could meet him. You are a dying breed.

Looking ahead - will we be able to keep this team togeather. as soon as they win the cup their value doubles- you wish not but . . . what will Alex Burrows, Ryan Kesler, Kevin Bieksa be worth on the open market? same goes for every one of them. I think some of the top dogs are already undervalued to help the team but other than them and the Sedins this is a team of average joes that if you break up you wonder if they are worth what they have created togeather. with the cap and the players having to look after their families - you can't blame a player for not cashing in - it'll be interesting what happens. I guess the beat goes on.

totally disgusting display by the canucks on both sides of the whistle. I am ashamed of the conduct of the canucks tonight.

That last clear attempt to injure by torres should earn him multi game suspensions. Dont expect any such thing, but it really pissed me off and was sympolic of most of the canucks attitude tonight.

They better put that *poop* aside and just play hockey from now on.

Better than the 94 team my ass. The 94 team never lost their composure or played so undisciplined during the playoffs. I dont care if this team does go on to win the cup, they got a long ways to go to match the class of the 94 team.

why do I even come to this board when I know that I'm gonna read *poop* like this from Canuck haters.??

idiots

laterz

After the stanley cup, go Lions go... until then kiss my _____

PS - loved the game today!

Noway the 94 Cup game had as much 'stuff' happening during the play, both sides. With that and a large margin in a game, it was bound to go south. BTW, that was both sides dishing, not just the Canucks, IMO.

Don't let the door hit you on your way out. Perhaps you may have noticed that the Bruins were no angels either

Ugly. I really thought the Canucks were cruising when they killed off a major but then the wheels fell off in the second period. Proof you can't go by stats. Midway through the third period the Canucks were apparently outshooting the Bruins. If thats true I don't remember many of the shots. IMO, Higgins was our best forward. I was stunned when I saw Thomas knock over Sedin. Hey if thats how he wants to play fine, but I think he'd better stay focussed on goaltending. I still feel the finger thing is no big deal but I hadn't heard what Milbury and Julien were saying until I read todays papers. Definately curious considering 2 seperate Boston Bruins did what those two said a pro shouldn't be doing. Julien is a coach I think who might blast his two finger pointers for showing him up. This upcoming fourth game is going to be a dandy, IMO. I just can't see Luongo having another tough night. If tonight is how the Canucks are going to play on the road, I'm glad they have home ice advantage.
