Last Night, June 15th, 2011, I watched the Stanley Cup Final Game 7 between Vancouver Canucks and Boston Bruins. Unfortunately, the Canucks were unable to bring home the Cup back to Canada as the Bruins came out victorious. The Final score was Canucks 0 - Bruins 4. All season, the Vancouver Canucks had been the best team in the Competition, winning the Presidents Trophy, winning the Western Conference Trophy but it was the last hurdle, the Stanley Cup that was all too much for them.
Even before the game had finished, groups of outraged fans rioted through the streets of Downtown Vancouver, over turning vehicles which they then set on fire, smashing windows of buildings and for the most part destroying anything that they could.
These photos below are some stills from the television as i sat and watched the Vancouver Riots unfold.
