But not in my time. I was not alive when they won their last Cup.
Regardless of who wins this series, I can cross another team off my list of "Teams I never thought I would see win a championship in my lifetime.

This will be the Canucks third trip to the Stanley Cup Finals....their opponents: New York (Islanders), New York (Rangers) and now Boston. I guess they like to travel when they go deep in the playoffs!
Vancouver has been around since '70 and have never won the Cup; Boston last won it back in '72. The winning city is going to go nuts, nuts, nuts!!!
I'll bet the Detroit Lions will still be on your list when you take your last breath.
Why did you edit my post, ..... to fit your statement ?
I said:
Obviously, no one from this team though.
Difference being, the Bruins have WON it before !!!

Does NOTHING before you were born count for you ?
Thats a shame, as far as we know, the Red Wings have never won one since you were born ...

Sabres must like parity ....
Damn! I wish I was on Causeway street right now.
Vancouver is a really good team. But, I don't think they are a Juggernaut team like the Oilers were in '88 & '90.
Bill, we are blessed to be fans of the teams in Boston/New England in this era. It is awesome! I never want it to end. My sons don't know what it was like before, our pain their gain.

Games 1-2 are in Vancouver on NBC and starting at 8 pm
Games 3-4 in Boston on VS and starting at 7:30 pm
The rest are on NBC and start at 8 pm and alternate sites.

I do too...and I remember thinking, "What do the Wings need to do to become a premier team like Boston and Montreal.
I was just saying this to my 17 year old daughter. She's celebrated three Super Bowls, two World Series and an NBA Championship with me the last nine years. She thinks this is how it's always been.
Sure my dad got to see the Celtics dynasties of the 60's/70's/80's and the Bobby Orr Era, but he saw disappointment after disappointment with the Pats and especially the Red Sox.
BTW Hart, WHAT IF the Pats didn't lose to the Jets after having the best record in the NFL, the Celtics didn't trade Perk and Shaq stayed somewhat healthy? We could have been looking at playing for FOUR championships in 2011.

So, a team from Boston will be playing a championship series in June at TD Garden against a team from the Pacific Coast.
Sounds familiar, but instead of basketballs, this will involve pucks.

Vancouver shouldn't EVER be put in the same sentence as the Oilers teams you mentioned ....

Red Sox, Pats & Bruins are going to be at or near championship levels for the near future. So maybe if Danny has something up his sleeve, it could happen again.

He said they're NOT the juggernaut that the late 80's Oilers were.
For that matter, they're not the 70's Canadiens, 80's Islanders or even your Red Wings over the last 20 years.
Just heard this game was the first playoff game without a penalty called in 20 years. Hmmmm.

I agree with the Red Sox, Pats and Bruins.....they're all loaded with YOUNG talent. I'm hopeful the Celtics have one more run with this crew.
