The Boston Bruins beat the Vancouver Canucks in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals 4-0 to win their first Cup since 1972, on June 15, 2011. All celebrations and presentations included.
This was such a huge lift at the time, my girlfriend passed away just seven days before this Game 7. I was badly in need of something to be happy about and the Bruins delivered! The amazing thing about this series was that the 3 games that Boston lost were decided by one goal and all 4 of their wins were by 3 or more goals
Wow, well I'm terribly sorry your girlfriend died, glad you have something to be happy about, at my expense nonetheless. But no Cup is worth the life of a loved one. I hope though that she at least knows the mystery of Heaven's hope of glory in Christ.
Years later , I wonder how far you were looking back when you posted this , damn I’m sorry about your girl Bro , if your in ya 20s I’ve got a feeling what may have taken her , well it’s 2023 things are even worse in the city let’s hope we can Expel FLA
Literally the best day ever. I will never forget watching this game at my buddy's place in the north end of Boston and running out into the streets in front of the garden right before the end whistle. The stuff of dreams, Boston is the greatest city in the world.
@@wills3210 Haha, we'll see. It took a lot for Vancouver to even get to 2011. Getting back would require something like Bedard foregoing any extension in Chicago beyond 2030 and coming here in free agency, then surrounding him with the right players, not an easy task, plus how many other moves? Oh, and McDavid would need to hit his decline by then, Edmonton would have to fail to retain key players to help in his older years. So many things need to go right before Canucks can get back there.
@@wills3210 Besides, we also come off hosting the Olympics, just beat out the Hawks, and were set to go meet Prince William and Princess Kate, first in Ottawa on Canada Day, then they would come to Vancouver. The script was set, and then it was blown out, gone with the wind.
My dad was a serious sports fanatic Boston Bruins have been his hockey team all is life he passed away November 26th 2010 I remember watching this game just a few months later the Bruins win the cup I'll always remember this
Oh oh YES. It be happening. It will be hard to top that comeback against Vancouver after what happened to Horton. I have a Boston Horton, Orr and Lucic Jerseys.
The Canucks fans didn't stay to cheer on the champions; they stayed to boo loudly to show their displeasure about losing the series. Although, I have yet to find a gracious opposing fanbase to congratulate the Stanley Cup champions on enemy ice. Such is the NHL
Yep. And Bruins fans belted out the Everybody Knows Your Name song while Canucks fans reenacted South Park and later said "Love means never having to say you're sorry." Very appropriate because Love Story was made the same year the Canucks first played and when Bobby Orr scored his famous goal.
Tim Thomas really led this Boston team basically by himself in 2011. He gave his teammates all the confidence they needed to capture this championship.
I’ll never forget this day. Sitting on the couch with my dad and mom being just 9 years old. My dad watching the time tick down and seeing the tears in his eyes and pure joy and bliss. I’ll never forget it. 💛🖤
I am a Bruins fan, but I love how with about 30 seconds, all of the Canucks fans stand and swing their towels as a salute/in respect to their team. Thanks for the great series.
ShepShep5 If Laviolette had just conceded the 2010 finale to my Rangers, I would’ve respected him a little bit more. I don’t think he won fair and square. Like I said, I think he rigged that game in his favor. Laviolette should be behind bars.
Wow! What a series. I am a Bruins fan but was in Vancouver for game 2. I saw Burrows score that OT goal and was stunned. I left the arena and walked around. Seemed like the entire city of Vancouver was out celebrating. All I kept thinking was "your team is up 2-0 but you haven't won anything yet". Back in Boston the Canucks really screwed up. They were cruising in this series then the cheap shot on Thorton and the Burrows nonsense of biting the finger of Burgeon woke the Bruins up. After that it wasn't even about hockey it was about pride. It was about honor. They started playing with emotion, the crowd responded and the Canucks were shell shocked. After that all the Canuck players started looking over their shoulder, playing scared and waiting for the big hits. Bruins pressed them and they wilted. Oh they won another game back in Vancouver but the first 10 minutes of game 6 sealed their fate. The hits, the Boston crowd, chasing Luongo in the first 10 minutes. Series over!
Starboss05 BULLSHIT! Keeping Claude after 2012 was the downfall. He cost them a Cup in 2014 and the playoffs in 15 and 16. It's no coincidence they woke up under Bruce Cassidy
KHayes666 And look what happened they lost 4 straight games in the 2nd round and almost choked to the Leafs in the 1st round. Boston is a one line team and Rask has become incredibly inconsistent.
It never gets old. Ever. Best hockey moment of my life. Grandparents had season tickets WAY back in the 50s and the B's been part of my family all my life. Thank you!
Yup, I was almost 18 when Bobby Orr last won it for Boston, my hometown. Remember WSBK, channel 38? That was the Bruins channel and I can still hear the station jingle and Fred Cusick and Johnny Pearson calling the game. We had a black and white 20" tv with rabbit ears back then and you had to quietly tip toe or you'd mess up the picture! . 🐰 What a broadcasting team they were! I miss those days. 😥
Still as awesome today as it was the day it happened! Awesome! I will always be a Bruins fan, no matter what. I grew up a Bruins fan and that will never change. And I live in BC! Go Bruins Go!
this is what you call pure carnage. the bruins fucking gave it so bad to the canucks on game 7 in the rogers arena (canucks home ice) , and caused a big ass fucking riot in vancouver. if you dont call that bad ass, i dont know what to say. just watch tim thomas's highlights in the 2011 playoffs. you will literally get CHILLS
@@pottytheparrot310that WAS a hell of a team the Rangers had in 1994. But there’s one major difference between that Rangers team and this Bruins team. The 1994 Rangers were heavy FAVORITES in the Finals. The 2011 Bruins were heavy UNDERDOGS in the .
Best day of my life. I cried that night. Wow....I never thought I'd see the day. This is probably my 12th time commenting on this video saying the same exact thing. Who else thought it was wonderful when Bucyk got to lift the cup??? It was awesome!! Having him lift it back then and to lift it that night...wow what a game and what a season. I love the Bruins.
If 28:58 doesn't make your entire day complete I don't know what else does. Johnny Bucyk held the last one and having him there was amazing. He still does so much with the team it's remarkable. That was one of my favorite moments of the entire playoffs, maybe my hockey life. I loved watching the skate around Boston Garden during its last game (win against MTL), but this was special.
It doesnt matter who you're a fan of if it's not the Hawks or Lightning. In which case thanks for beating the Rangers/Ducks. Otherwise I couldn't give a fuck.
I was so elated when someone finally beat the lights out of you and took the Cup from Boston. After eight years, we got avenged. (Chicago doesn't count, they're our biggest rival).
@@geordiejones5618 the only reason the Blackhawks won because Chicago kept whining and complaining about how they haven't won a title since the Chicago Bulls
The Bruins are my favorite team this is very heartwarming for me, but in 2011 I missed all of it I remember being hung up on myself too much that year. It was a rough one, but now it's hopefully gonna improve. I have hockey and my music as ammunition so I'll be feeling good and I finally feel like maybe something will go right.
Timmy proved the hockey world wrong, from final 4 while in Vermont to being the consmythe and hoisting the cup!!! the most aggressive tender in the game. Just shows stay at home goalies can put up numbers yet never win the hardware they dont deserve. Play hard and never hold back!! Tim Thomas your the dream every goalie wanted to live.
I don't think I will ever see as good of a goalie performance in a Stanley Cup Final like the one Tim Thomas had ever again. He was unbelievable in this series.
this is special:) i love when game ends, fans are standing. Both fans. Vancouver fans are giving respect to Boston players and fans!:) this is hockey baby
Bruins winning the Cup, made it so special. Thought of all the Bruins greats, because they won the Cup, for 1st time, since 1972. Thought of Bobby Orr, Cam Neely, Dallas, Ray Bourque, Cheevers, Milton Schmidt, Terry O' Reilly, Tiny Thompson. Also all for Boston teams won the championships, by Red Sox, Bruins, Patriots and Celtics. Loved each and every minute of it. More Boston Championships to come, since Boston is City of Champions, and Titletown USA.
Watching this again will never get old. Hopefully Boston can win another cup in the next few years. We've got a lot of great young talent that could easily propel us to another one
This was the best day of my life! I got to watch the series in a wheelchair and was in tears the day we won it! Wish I could witness it for the first time all over again! We should have had more cups these past few seasons… but this team was one of a kind ❤️
Most pitiful game 7 Stanley Cup final performance i've ever seen, no surprise it was the Canucks that pulled that feat off. No fight, no heart, no cup!
"We didn't lose to the British and we're not going to lose to British Columbia" I have watched this video multiple times and just now noticed that they are playing Down With Disease by Phish at 9:14 That is a first for me I have never heard any NHL hockey team play Phish, especially during the Stanley Cup playoffs.
HOW GOOD IS BERGERON ! I know coming from QC it may seem a bit biased but DAMN. He's probaby the most underestimated player in the league. Sure he got the "defensive forward" award this year but look at his performance on game 7 of the SC Final ! This guy is an absolute juggernaut
This night was sick. I had 3 friends over watching the game and every goal we scored we jumped and yelled "YEAHHHHH FUCK YEAH!" Such an awesome finals overall!
12:21 is also unbelievably epic! Look at the Vancouver fan that is right behind Marchand (as he is celebrating the empty netter) The guy slams on the glass in disgust it is hilarious! Never noticed that until now LOL
At 16:20 to 16:31 when mentioned about Dubuque Fighting Saints winning the Clark Cup; they're head coach in 2011 was Jim Montgomery now he is current head coach for the Bruins.
It was absolutely infuriating. This was by far Vancouver's best chance - on so many levels. Furthermore, Vancouver just happened to host the Olympics the year before, their star player was also a gold medalist, then they finally conquered their main rival, and all the cards were falling their way - until it didn't. Before this series, the Habs fans were the ultimate Bruin haters. Today, it's Nuck fans.
I dont think there will ever be a team as dirty as the 2011 Canucks. Burrows, Kesler, Rome, etc. Burrows especially, he made Marchand look like an angel
I love hearing the mikes picking up all the Bruins behind the net along with Marchand saying "yahhh, r u fucking kidding me" after he scored the 4th goal, empty netter. They clearly knew at that moment they had won the Stanley Cup and it doesn't get better. Marchand was a beast that whole series. Pesky, dirty, weasily, gritty, fast, shifty, great defensively, great offensively, just all around awesome! Everything that makes Marchand a great player and why we love him in Boston. Sure he does go over the line at times and drives us nuts here and there but when he's right at the edge and just doing his thing, he's as good as there gets in the world. I was glad Canada finally got to see what we have in Marchand at this yr's World Cup. They finally realize he's not dirty, he just plays the game on the edge to get others off their game, and yes, sometimes goes over the line but when the lights turn on and it's time to show up in big games, there's no one better. Simply put, he's a big game, big series player! This Stanley Cup finals series was his coming out and he's been getting better and better ever since. Now all of the hockey world knows how great he is and there isn't one real hockey fan or team a cross the NHLwho wouldn't want him on their team. He's that type of player. He's not just the "little ball of hate" anymore, he's also one of the best players in the world.
So epic winning 3 Game 7s amazing also as a Boston sports fan it was the last team i needed to see win having the patriots Red Sox celtics then bruins all win titles in a seven year span something no city has ever done since 2000 we haven't gone over 3 years without a parade rolling down aren streets
I was in high school in Mississippi when the Bruins won two Stanley Cups in the early 70's. For the next 39 years, I wanted to buy a Boston Bruins hat, lived in Dallas and Florida and never found one. I could have ordered one online, but that wasn't the same. In 2010 around Christmas, I went into a new hat store in Columbus Georgia and found not one but TWO fitted Boston Bruins hats, I had about 30 bucks on me(I was done that day with all my Xmas shopping) and they wanted 25 bucks for the hat. I told myself, you found your hat, you HAVE to buy it. I did, and the year I found my hat, the Bruins win the Stanley Cup. I dont know whether its fate or destiny, but I just feel me finding my hat after years of searching is somehow involved in the Bruins taking home the Cup that year. LOL It had been a long disappointing 39 years!!!
+ApprovingLeaf15 (HockeyFreak) I may live in Vancouver but my heart will always be in Boston. Even when I know we'll miss the playoffs for the next 2 seasons ;_;
Why am I watching this when all it does is remind me that the Bruins won't be holding the cup until hopefully the next finals? God, this was great to see.
In the live replay with the team, Thomas said the only thing he wanted to do after the game was get his skates off they were killing him and Marchand said he thought Vancouver was going to comeback until he scored that last goal. That explains his happiness
Im a Diehard Bruins Fan this was well deserved. 3 Game 7s. The Game against Tampa Bay Game 7 i consider the Greatest Game i ever watched. But This was the Greatest Moment finally seeing Lord Stanley come To Boston officially after 39 years and I was 30 at the time do the Math.
Losing on home ice in game 7 is tough I now know how much it hurts we lost to the blues in game 7. It was hard to see us lose at home. But what happened has happened . I wish the best of luck to everyone this season . July 30th can’t come fast enough .
Your team played like their true colors were which is soft and cowardly we all saw it and can rewatch your team full of jokes and softies get bullied and given retribution for their disgusting and despicable cheap shots, flopping and of course biting. I get your best players usually aren't tough but sedin let Marchand give him three blow to the face And not only did he not even lift a finger top push him off not a single teammate came to defend their captain 😂what a joke its utterly laughable. Chara doesn't ever talk shit so he meant it when he answered the question of what the biggest difference between the teams were by saying MENTAL TOUGHNESS sedins were soffest first liners in league and don't think I'm gonna forget about that extra leaky siv of a goalie was a dousie luongo was so rattled and yes I can't read his mind but it was literally pouring off the guy another softy they made captain for a while yet once you have a two goal lead and are playing somewhat physical the games pretty much over and the luongo chants? Forget about it he was praying to get pulled I'm honestly surprised he didn't fake an injury. Sedins and luongo are all time career losers with luongo holding the number one spot for that category not close and prob never will be H. Sedin all time softest captain and all time not respectede by teammates captain. I'm fine with sedins in hall of Fame but luongo is an absolute disgrace to it idc about his numbers I'm bruins fan but try to be fair because I also believe rask is overrated and among the all time biggest choker goalie if not the number 1. He's only a bigger choker than luongo though be luongo just got destroyed and curled into the fetal position until it ended or got pulled at least rask battled till the end was invested at all times just was a giant head case in big games and moments this may be a tad bias so would like neutrals to weigh in but I don't think fans chanting tuukka over and over would fase him much if at all but not even close to how luongo seemed to deal with it. Anyway your team is a joke and a loser team the city isn't great either thanks for neely how's that feel the one good product from there played for us was incredible and now runs the team who beat you in the cup and been to two more as well as the favorites to win this year I don't even think you have sniffed the playoffs since then if you got bounced in the first round a year or two fine god forbid I miss that😂
It's hard to see Lucic in a Bruins uniform knowing what was soon to come of him. Regardless, Zdeno Chara lifting the Stanley Cup is a moment in NHL History few will forget. Go get another one, Bruins.
It was awesome to see the Kings beat them in 2012 in 5 games in Vancouver. The only 8 seed team to win the cup!! 2 Cups to Zero!! All Vancouver fans are morons and losers

***** We played the HABS during that Stanley Cup win, oh, and beat them too. Remember Hortons OT winner? lol
Bergeron plays well all the time and is the best player on the Bruins. Marchand is the one that is up and down.

Just shows stay at home goalies can put up numbers yet never win the hardware they dont deserve. Play hard and never hold back!! Tim Thomas your the dream every goalie wanted to live.
Thanks to dafoomie, your vids are the best!!
And the Bruins are champions!!!!
I don't think I will ever see as good of a goalie performance in a Stanley Cup Final like the one Tim Thomas had ever again. He was unbelievable in this series.
this is special:) i love when game ends, fans are standing. Both fans. Vancouver fans are giving respect to Boston players and fans!:) this is hockey baby
Still gives me the goosebumps! I will never stop watching highlights of the Bruins road to the cup and the finals! GO BRUINS!
"He'll go to lift the cup, and it will undoubtedly be the highest it's ever been held." ....Well played ;)
Had to revisit our last Cup before I can sleep... Thank goodness for this one!! Seriously... What a moment :)
Enjoy it. Your Bruins will never win again until 2097.
@@broadstreet21 LOL let me know then the "Broadstreet Bullies" win a cup this century🤣
It still makes me tear watching this...When the Canucks finnaly win the cup It's going to be one of the greatest days of my life.
Cruz Medina It'll never happen. Sorry!
@@cbsc8891 SHUT UP!!!!!!
@@Ilyaaa-aswe’re here and the Canucks are in utter disarray
Bruins winning the Cup, made it so special. Thought of all the Bruins greats, because they won the Cup, for 1st time, since 1972. Thought of Bobby Orr, Cam Neely, Dallas, Ray Bourque, Cheevers, Milton Schmidt, Terry O' Reilly, Tiny Thompson. Also all for Boston teams won the championships, by Red Sox, Bruins, Patriots and Celtics. Loved each and every minute of it. More Boston Championships to come, since Boston is City of Champions, and Titletown USA.
This playoff yr was so emotional from nathan horton waving the flag its seriously a tear jerker watching this over again
Watching this again will never get old. Hopefully Boston can win another cup in the next few years. We've got a lot of great young talent that could easily propel us to another one
MechanisedChaos They need another stud defensemen and hope Donato is the real deal.
Well you're going to need it never to get old. Because the Bruins are officially cursed, they'll never win until 2097.
8:57 Chara reaction is priceless, Burrows needs to stop taking advice from Montreal.
This was the best day of my life! I got to watch the series in a wheelchair and was in tears the day we won it! Wish I could witness it for the first time all over again! We should have had more cups these past few seasons… but this team was one of a kind ❤️
Needed this today
Anyone else watching this 11 years later to get hyped for playoffs
Watching getting hyped for Montgomery and the boys this year
@@wickedfuctup lets fucking gooo
I live in Vermont and I love the Boston bruins
Most pitiful game 7 Stanley Cup final performance i've ever seen, no surprise it was the Canucks that pulled that feat off. No fight, no heart, no cup!
"We didn't lose to the British and we're not going to lose to British Columbia" I have watched this video multiple times and just now noticed that they are playing Down With Disease by Phish at 9:14 That is a first for me I have never heard any NHL hockey team play Phish, especially during the Stanley Cup playoffs.
Never get tired of watching this.
1:04 1-0 Bergeron
4:16 2-0 Marchand
6:17 3-0 Bergeron Shorthanded
11:27 4-0 Marchand
HOW GOOD IS BERGERON ! I know coming from QC it may seem a bit biased but DAMN. He's probaby the most underestimated player in the league. Sure he got the "defensive forward" award this year but look at his performance on game 7 of the SC Final ! This guy is an absolute juggernaut
Who is here after Boston lost Stanley Cup Final 2019?
I need to watch this to cope cuz I’m sad
Bruins Fan Flames Player 26 Same
Me 😂😂😂😂😈
Me. So fuckin pissed off right now. Chara deserved better than this. The first line didn’t deliver.
@@devilzdandruff9199 pasta NEEDS to be better in the playoffs
This night was sick. I had 3 friends over watching the game and every goal we scored we jumped and yelled "YEAHHHHH FUCK YEAH!" Such an awesome finals overall!
Fuck off lol *****
Are you related to Del Driscoll?
Anyone else watching this as a coping mechanism?
Top three NHL goaltenders of all times
1. Patrick Roy
2. Martin Broduer
3. 2011 tim fucking thomas
12:21 is also unbelievably epic! Look at the Vancouver fan that is right behind Marchand (as he is celebrating the empty netter) The guy slams on the glass in disgust it is hilarious! Never noticed that until now LOL
At 16:20 to 16:31 when mentioned about Dubuque Fighting Saints winning the Clark Cup; they're head coach in 2011 was Jim Montgomery now he is current head coach for the Bruins.
This is how sad it is to lose the Finals. The Canucks players were crying almost.
No shit
Ipknoobs1 Bruins fan that doesn't give a fuck.
It was absolutely infuriating. This was by far Vancouver's best chance - on so many levels. Furthermore, Vancouver just happened to host the Olympics the year before, their star player was also a gold medalist, then they finally conquered their main rival, and all the cards were falling their way - until it didn't.
Before this series, the Habs fans were the ultimate Bruin haters. Today, it's Nuck fans.
Best Stanley cup finals in history. Neck and neck. Pure rivalry
It still almost brings me to tears especially Recchi with the cup
Ben Scanlan and the final goal, shift, and cup of his amazing career gives me chills.
“There’s more than winning a cup” - Genghis Khan
I dont think there will ever be a team as dirty as the 2011 Canucks. Burrows, Kesler, Rome, etc. Burrows especially, he made Marchand look like an angel
Kessler is a heck of a player. He played his heart out during the series. Broke down in tears afterwards. He gets my respect, like him or not.
Kessler epitomizes the canucks. Cheap and dirty
I love hearing the mikes picking up all the Bruins behind the net along with Marchand saying "yahhh, r u fucking kidding me" after he scored the 4th goal, empty netter. They clearly knew at that moment they had won the Stanley Cup and it doesn't get better. Marchand was a beast that whole series. Pesky, dirty, weasily, gritty, fast, shifty, great defensively, great offensively, just all around awesome! Everything that makes Marchand a great player and why we love him in Boston. Sure he does go over the line at times and drives us nuts here and there but when he's right at the edge and just doing his thing, he's as good as there gets in the world. I was glad Canada finally got to see what we have in Marchand at this yr's World Cup. They finally realize he's not dirty, he just plays the game on the edge to get others off their game, and yes, sometimes goes over the line but when the lights turn on and it's time to show up in big games, there's no one better. Simply put, he's a big game, big series player! This Stanley Cup finals series was his coming out and he's been getting better and better ever since. Now all of the hockey world knows how great he is and there isn't one real hockey fan or team a cross the NHLwho wouldn't want him on their team. He's that type of player. He's not just the "little ball of hate" anymore, he's also one of the best players in the world.
seeing Lucic win the cup in his hometown made me feel happy for him
Mmm, I don't know about this. His family is almost forced to leave town. Their church was vandalized, and he got beaten up at a bar.
6 years later and it still hurts to see how bad the canucks collapsed in this game...
So epic winning 3 Game 7s amazing also as a Boston sports fan it was the last team i needed to see win having the patriots Red Sox celtics then bruins all win titles in a seven year span something no city has ever done since 2000 we haven't gone over 3 years without a parade rolling down aren streets
The Pats getting their 6th Superbowl win was the sweetest of all
I was in high school in Mississippi when the Bruins won two Stanley Cups in the early 70's. For the next 39 years, I wanted to buy a Boston Bruins hat, lived in Dallas and Florida and never found one. I could have ordered one online, but that wasn't the same. In 2010 around Christmas, I went into a new hat store in Columbus Georgia and found not one but TWO fitted Boston Bruins hats, I had about 30 bucks on me(I was done that day with all my Xmas shopping) and they wanted 25 bucks for the hat. I told myself, you found your hat, you HAVE to buy it. I did, and the year I found my hat, the Bruins win the Stanley Cup. I dont know whether its fate or destiny, but I just feel me finding my hat after years of searching is somehow involved in the Bruins taking home the Cup that year. LOL
It had been a long disappointing 39 years!!!
i may be Canadian but my heart will always be in Boston. LETS GO BRUINS
+ApprovingLeaf15 (HockeyFreak) I may live in Vancouver but my heart will always be in Boston. Even when I know we'll miss the playoffs for the next 2 seasons ;_;
Same. I'm a Saskatchewan boy, but my heart will always be in Boston. Go Bruins!!
Nigga how are you living in Vancouver but you're supporting it's most hated team
September By supporting the Bruins and wearing an 88 jersey every game day and cheering for them. While living in Vancouver
APigthatflys called bandwagoner
Why am I watching this when all it does is remind me that the Bruins won't be holding the cup until hopefully the next finals? God, this was great to see.
gotta respect canuck fans givin a loud roar for lucic
Who is here right now because you can just feel it?
April 13 - I can feel it! March to the cup
One of the best times of my life major throw back
Amazing that the Bruins outscored the Canucks 23-8 in this series.
Love Chara's reaction to Burrows' dive at 8:56
I get shivers just rewatching this match
BOS 1-0: 1:03
BOS 2-0: 4:10
BOS 3-0: 6:11
BOS 4-0: 11:20
Doug Sheehan Have people's attention span gotten so short that you have to do this? No wonder fidget spinners are a thing...
David Horgan It helps when looking for specific moments you grumpy old bastard
We had the talent and we couldn’t finish. Still get chills from this
The whole shift on the second goal was amazing, such great team play.
In the live replay with the team, Thomas said the only thing he wanted to do after the game was get his skates off they were killing him and Marchand said he thought Vancouver was going to comeback until he scored that last goal. That explains his happiness
Chara’s reaction to Burrows flopping was priceless 😂
Im a Diehard Bruins Fan this was well deserved. 3 Game 7s. The Game against Tampa Bay Game 7 i consider the Greatest Game i ever watched. But This was the Greatest Moment finally seeing Lord Stanley come To Boston officially after 39 years and I was 30 at the time do the Math.
Losing on home ice in game 7 is tough I now know how much it hurts we lost to the blues in game 7. It was hard to see us lose at home. But what happened has happened . I wish the best of luck to everyone this season . July 30th can’t come fast enough .
The Bruins should have won in 2019, in Game 6, hands down. But then the officials truly blew it and the Blues took it.
Your team played like their true colors were which is soft and cowardly we all saw it and can rewatch your team full of jokes and softies get bullied and given retribution for their disgusting and despicable cheap shots, flopping and of course biting. I get your best players usually aren't tough but sedin let Marchand give him three blow to the face And not only did he not even lift a finger top push him off not a single teammate came to defend their captain 😂what a joke its utterly laughable. Chara doesn't ever talk shit so he meant it when he answered the question of what the biggest difference between the teams were by saying MENTAL TOUGHNESS sedins were soffest first liners in league and don't think I'm gonna forget about that extra leaky siv of a goalie was a dousie luongo was so rattled and yes I can't read his mind but it was literally pouring off the guy another softy they made captain for a while yet once you have a two goal lead and are playing somewhat physical the games pretty much over and the luongo chants? Forget about it he was praying to get pulled I'm honestly surprised he didn't fake an injury. Sedins and luongo are all time career losers with luongo holding the number one spot for that category not close and prob never will be H. Sedin all time softest captain and all time not respectede by teammates captain. I'm fine with sedins in hall of Fame but luongo is an absolute disgrace to it idc about his numbers I'm bruins fan but try to be fair because I also believe rask is overrated and among the all time biggest choker goalie if not the number 1. He's only a bigger choker than luongo though be luongo just got destroyed and curled into the fetal position until it ended or got pulled at least rask battled till the end was invested at all times just was a giant head case in big games and moments this may be a tad bias so would like neutrals to weigh in but I don't think fans chanting tuukka over and over would fase him much if at all but not even close to how luongo seemed to deal with it. Anyway your team is a joke and a loser team the city isn't great either thanks for neely how's that feel the one good product from there played for us was incredible and now runs the team who beat you in the cup and been to two more as well as the favorites to win this year I don't even think you have sniffed the playoffs since then if you got bounced in the first round a year or two fine god forbid I miss that😂
The most satisfying Stanley Cup win ever!!!
It's hard to see Lucic in a Bruins uniform knowing what was soon to come of him. Regardless, Zdeno Chara lifting the Stanley Cup is a moment in NHL History few will forget. Go get another one, Bruins.
My favorite memories of this game was the live feed to the Vancouver fans outside which became to be known as "Squid Square"!
Meanwhile outside Canuck Fans Riot and destroy their City AGAIN!
Damn shame that they do that, it’s an otherwise beautiful city
The look on Zdeno Chara's face shows what happens what a little boy's hockey dream comes true!!
am a canucks fan, but I have to admit bruins deserved to win this game. Great series for both teams. Bad game 7 for vancouver
Who else is watching this while quarentine?
"They're both looking where the puck was coming from..."
Ya know, despite jumping right before he hit Chara.
One of the greatest days to be a Flames fan
We'll you guys lost In game 7 vs the lighting and blew a 3-1 lead in 1994 still mad we dominate you guys in the regular season lately?
15:38 *sigh* always brings a smile to my face. fantastic
Mine too! He still hasn't won a cup. That's alot of crying! 😭
Still tough to watch. Boston was so good during that series! They disserved it!
It was awesome to see the Kings beat them in 2012 in 5 games in Vancouver. The only 8 seed team to win the cup!! 2 Cups to Zero!! All Vancouver fans are morons and losers
i love my boston bruis fan and there sad kick there ass and cry like litte bitchs
