Obviously the referee was paid off by New York crime lords, and the only way to beat Vancouver (other than dumping the puck in on McLean and having it go in the net) was to kick Bure out of the game for a little push.
@farbeyondjuban Yeah, well wouldn't you be hurt if the greatest moment in the franchise's 40+ year history was LOSING in a Stanley Cup Final, 17 years ago? Come on...
@chrisalayon I know what a name calling keyboard warrior is. Look that up you will want to know because I see you getting called that alot in your future. Have a nice day.
Seriously? I'm a hardcore Canucks fan but Bure pulled a lot of dirty moves. He was a great player, don't get me wrong, but he was by no means a saint.
That was definitely a 1 gamer right there. Also, you can't blame the loss on just that one play. They lost game 7. Besides, it wasn't just Bure that got you guys there. You had one of the greats in Kirk McLean, a total match for Richter in that series. It came down to one game, even teams, and the Canucks lost. Hopefully they get it together next season.
really? I didnt know the canucks sucked that badly that taking one player out of one game meant that they would automatically lose. Damn I thought the canucks were better than that. That was the dumbest comment Ive ever heard about this series other than another bitter canuck fan saying that richters save on bure was luck. If a ranger landed a high stick like that on a canuck player your fans wouldve been screaming for ejection so stop whining
Smashing a guys face in dosen't get a call if you're Bure!? Sounds like Bettman's Penguins!! If you're someone you get protected, but if you freaking elbow someone's nose and cause it to break, then yeah, there's gotta be called. Even if you're the frigging Russian Rocket.
if you remember this game, Bure was all over the Rangers. UNSTOPPABLE... if Messier had done the same thing Van Hellacrapalot would have used the option of a 4 minute double minor, that was one of the most critical plays in Canucks history.
They would have kicked him out of the league if it was Crosby, Malkin or Ovenckin!! But they'd pay you more if you get a Ranger. I wonder how much Bettman paid for that dog Chris Simon to nail that cheap shot on Ryan Hollweg. His ass should have been tossed to the curb...
Justice for all of you Bure fans! The referee who threw Bure out of this game, Andy van Hellemond, is under continuing investigation for using NHL officials' association funds to cover his gambling debts! But how did this MF get inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame? AND ON THE SAME NIGHT AS WAYNE GRETZKY, NO LESS! That sucks!
F that shit. If anyone had seen the kind of illegal physical play that Bure had to endure for all of the Canucks runs in the playoffs before and during that particular run that "elbow" is childs'play. That was a different kind of hockey back then. If Bure were still around in the "new NHL" scoring leader with ease.
Poor little Jay "The Hammer" Wells. Big bad Bure was always the toughest guy in the league
