Ten years ago, when Vancouver lost to the Rangers, people in the British Columbian capital were turning over cars, looting, and getting hurt. I forgot the cost of damage, but thank God nothing like that happened in Calgary.

Yeah, I remember that.

BTW, the capital of BC is Victoria, not Vancouver

Tampa is a hocky town!!! we had 3 NHL record attendance in the playoffs this year GO LIGHTNING!!!! WE WON THE CUP!!!

Where has the time gone??????

Hunny I'm from the Detroit area and I was rooting on Calgary ever since they knocked our Red Wings out of the competition! Although I must say it was nice to see a DIFFERENT team win the cup this year! And by different I mean someone other than the Avalanche or the Devils... (but of course I don't mind seeing the red wings win every year if it were possible!)

you have one of the biggest arenas in the NHL, PLUS tix were selling for $8US on Game Day
if there was a bigger arena in Calgary, we could have out done your attendance record.
hell we get 30k for a crappy CFL football team.
