Wow!! Vancouver erupts after a loss in the NHL finals. Can you imagine what would have happened if the fans in Miami responded the same way? I wonder how the media would be covering it? How long would it take them to blame the players and the city? Vancouver erupts and there is 'outrage' by the media although they responded the same way a couple of years ago after a loss.
Almost 150 people required hospital treatment overnight and close to 100 were arrested after rioters swept through downtown Vancouver following a Canucks loss to the Boston Bruins in the decisive Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals.
Vancouver Coastal Health spokeswoman Anna Marie D'Angelo said Thursday three stabbing victims have been admitted and an unidentified man is in critical condition with head injuries after a fall.
She said most of the rioting victims were treated at St. Paul's Hospital in downtown Vancouver. About 40, including the stabbing cases and the head injury patient, were being treated at Vancouver General Hospital.
