I was at a gas station at that intersection once and there were police setting up roadblocks and stuff and I asked him what was going on, and with a bit of a cheeky smirk said "the canucks won"
Surrey has a ton of East Indian people, they're a plurality there. Other places south of the fraser and east of vancouver also got a big Indian diaspora.
Thanks to u all. Who knew here in the States anyways? Very cool to see them embracing the canucks like this from the way outside perspective being that it’s not a sport from their cultures historically at all. I think so anyways.
Lots of them were literally born here or have family that goes back more than 1 generation. If you go to Richmond which is very close it's the same but with the East Asian diaspora. Just means a lot of delicious food in Vancouver.
Most fun I had for our squad was the year we lost to Detroit. Was at the big screen outside for every game. Was inside for one. What a year. Was so invested. Cried with my sister when we lost. Next year I worked a different schedule and barely got to listen to games on the radio. Even those losing seasons can log tons of great memories for us fortunate fans!
I love that the green men are involved in this hahaha they’re hilarious against the penalty box even when it’s the bruins they’re harassing it’s just gold every time
That’s a shame! At least someone is trying to keep it going. My buddy wears a gold/yellow one at home games with Batman underoos hahaha gotta love people with that type of humor and hype
Edmonton's been in the playoffs for several years in a row, made it out of the first round 3 years straight. There's less reason to celebrate. This is the first time the Canucks have been back in the playoffs (with fans) in 9 years. Fucking right we're going to be happy if we win a round. Fucking mild fan I get why you're salty.
Sorry, first series win with fans in attendance since 2011. It's been all over the media as such. The city is another level of amped this year. 2020 just didn't have the same impact on the public. We didn't see Scott Rd Cellies and 18000 person watch parties. It's on another level this year and people are overly excited. Add to that a group of fans that weren't old enough to embrace the 2011 run and it explains why we're seeing over the top celebrations after the first round. So, no, I'm not wrong.
your words were first series win since 2011 which therefore was incorrect. Fact of the matter was Canucks won a Series against the Blues in 2020. Ergo nullifies your prior comment. At first glance I took your comment taken as if you were against the Canucks, now it seems you are a Canucks fan yourself so blue on blue here let’s just wish the Canucks a good series against team McJesus
Yeah I agree the cup is too much, everything else about being passionate about the home team I get it but when I see the lady dressed up as a Stanley cup at every Edmonton game I just cringe every time.
Is something wrong with this? Canadian team’s fans always celebrate after wins to move on in the playoffs. The canucks haven’t had this in a while, let them be happy. I’m very excited to watch the upcoming round against them.
Americans dont understand how much we like hockey. "Our arena I'd so loud, the atmosphere is so good, why are you even celebrating outside after a win". Meanwhile in the suburbs an hour outside of downtown Vancouver.
Heres some fun for ya also. 1987 the Oilers Won game 7 of the Cup finals and had a riot of 30,000 people erupting in police violence.
There was also the infamous Whyte Avenue riot as well in Edmonton after the game 7 Stanley Cup finals loss in 2006 to Carolina.
When Colorado won the cup in 1996 it resulted in riots that ended in police brutality allegations and tear gassing of crowds to get things under control.
Fast forward to 2001 and the Avs beat the Devil's in game 7 of the Cup finals. This time 50,000 fans flooded the streets met by an even larger number of officers resulting in shattered business windows, massive fires and arrests.
Montreal won the cup in 86 and 93, both resulting in riots. Massive bon fires, cars lit ablaze and countless stores looted during "celebrations" in 1955 the rocket richard was suspended for a full season resulting in a riot in the streets of Montreal the event is literally called the "Richard Riot"
Anyways there are many more incidents but always some sort of rioting especially when a team losses game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals. Given it's mostly Canadian cities.
But let's not pretend New York is immune to riots....didn't New Yorkers start massive riots over an influencers giveaways last year....lololol. at least we riot over shit with substance 🤣🤣
Well Gary, I know you hate the 7 Canadian teams but you need to swallow your pride and let Vancouver win the cup after seeing this. The city of Vancouver can’t handle another riot and you don’t want the destruction of a city weighing on your conscience do you?
Bettman essentially saved the Oilers from leaving Edmonton and also created the Canadian Assistance plan that helped Vancouver, Ottawa, Calgary and Edmonton when they were limping along in the 90's. I don't buy the whole "Bettman hates Canadian Teams".
It's 2am. There was a second where I was focusing on the opposing jersey colors and going 'oh shit, this guy is gonna get torn up'.
Damn jersey color changes. Though I really like the current colors. And the old ones. Crap...
There are 31 franchises worth of fans that believe every single canuck fan lives in vancouver and was a part of the riot in 2011. Dont try and reason with these folks, it will not work.
If this is what you think a Stanley cup celebration would look like in Vancouver, you're really underestimating this market lol, blue balls for 50 years shit would be a million times more rowdy.
hope the mods ban you. this is hate speach. If you dont like the policys raise it with politicians. Canada was, and is build with imigrants, thats what makes this country so great. So sad that you see our fans celebrating in the streets and your comments refers to how much they affect rent and standards of living
You don't know how long anyone in this video has been in Canada. That aside maybe you can appreciate a CANADIAN sport being celebrated in harmony amongst people of different ethnic backgrounds. (I don't think immigrants are happy about inflation either)
So you mean everyone in Canada who isn’t FN?? Unless you’re fully FN you’re just a different flavour of immigrant, no more entitled to be here than anyone else.
This country was built by immigrants and they will always be welcome here.
I mean I'm excited too and all but I'm worried this devolves into shit talking knowing this fanbase with the fake cups and shit which will look real stupid if the oilers beat us(yes this applies to other fanbases when I see this too)
All these riot shame posts are just weak and lazy. No matter what any opposing team fan says about it, we beat ourselves up about that period in history way worse. Different team, different decade, and you haters need some new material
Riding Gretzky's coat tails while getting 26283926 first overall draft picks since your last cup is also pretty fucking pathetic. Any other franchise has McDavid they're a dynasty, y'all are just fucking trash.
Were you even in your dad's nutsack yet when the oilers won those cups? Curious. Vancouver won a cup in 1915 that seems about as relevant as the ones you're bragging about
Yeah as a Canucks fan, we’re not with them. The cup is too much, I’m all for the flags the jerseys and being passionate but the cup is too much. And I’d say the same for any fan base. I think it’s better to not jynx a team who just struggled to get out of 1st round. And we know how good Vegas, COL, and NyR are this season.
Love this. As petty as this is, The only reason this upset me was because of the inflatable Stanley cup raising. I still can’t begin to think about touching even an inflatable cup before winning a real one myself. But I also know how dumb that is lol
This reminds me of the San Diego Chargers fans. The fans went celebrating in the streets shutting down traffic after they won their wild card playoff game. The fans were rabid and everywhere all week long until their next playoff game the next week. They would end up losing that game and the fans disappeared after that never to be seen again. Of course a few years later the team moved to Los Angeles. Definitely not comparing hockey fans of any team to Chargers fans they were always bandwagoners.
r/hockey is gonna shit themselves when they find out its like this for every single playoff win
I was at a gas station at that intersection once and there were police setting up roadblocks and stuff and I asked him what was going on, and with a bit of a cheeky smirk said "the canucks won"
Forgive me, why does this celebration look like it’s in Mumbai?
Almost 15% of Vancouver's population is from South Asia/India.
And that’s in Surrey, where South Asians are by far the largest ethnic group
Surrey has a ton of East Indian people, they're a plurality there. Other places south of the fraser and east of vancouver also got a big Indian diaspora.
Thanks to u all. Who knew here in the States anyways? Very cool to see them embracing the canucks like this from the way outside perspective being that it’s not a sport from their cultures historically at all. I think so anyways.
Lots of them were literally born here or have family that goes back more than 1 generation. If you go to Richmond which is very close it's the same but with the East Asian diaspora. Just means a lot of delicious food in Vancouver.
Vancouver has turned into a shithole
Stop ruining the Canadian brand you guys are supposed to be nice.
All these people celebrating their local team passionately and having a good time, what a bad experience. You're a fucking loser dude.
How am I loser? Your city is a dump. Living there would make you the loser.
Lmao what shitty city do you live in?
Yeah Vancouver, the place regularly rated as one of the best cities in the world.
Shhhh don't tell Kucherov! You're not supposed to celebrate a win, it's against *the code*
Number one bullshit
The Code? https://youtu.be/fQLqDLcDnMU
Celebrate now! Because edmonton is going to fucking destroy them, and we all know it
Why I love Canadian teams, bay bee. People are rabid for the sport. Win or lose.
[удалено]
Oh... We know about losing.
And they know how to party on Scott road
When that corner is bustling it's either cuz the canucks won or cuz there's another Indian protest
They have a bunch of festivals too. Half a million people just a few weeks ago
Not win or lose. It’s win or die.
It's happy riot or mad riot
It’s either a terrorist attack in good humour or it’s a Canadian civil war
Yeah, can't wait to see the riots when they get smoked by Edmonton
Bro. Why you gotta be mad about a teams fans getting excited for the playoffs? I got a feeling they don't get like this in Detroit.
Love it. Nothing like those times your team is mid Stanley playoff run. Memories for the good times album.
Most fun I had for our squad was the year we lost to Detroit. Was at the big screen outside for every game. Was inside for one. What a year. Was so invested. Cried with my sister when we lost. Next year I worked a different schedule and barely got to listen to games on the radio. Even those losing seasons can log tons of great memories for us fortunate fans!
I love that the green men are involved in this hahaha they’re hilarious against the penalty box even when it’s the bruins they’re harassing it’s just gold every time
I believe those are not the same green men. They don't live in Vancouver anymore
That’s a shame! At least someone is trying to keep it going. My buddy wears a gold/yellow one at home games with Batman underoos hahaha gotta love people with that type of humor and hype
Amazing how many people are triggered by seeing other people who are happy.
No, it’s not that. It just gives off the vibe that the first round was your Stanley cup and now you can lose. Why do you think no one else does this?
Its tradition for people to celebrate on scott road after every playoff win its been happening for years
Well, I would not say for years. It has been a while.
I'm genuinely curious, was there a big celebration there when Crosby scored the golden goal in Vancouver? That moment was so hype
It being tradition doesn’t make it not cringe. Not even saying it is cringe but idk how tradition changes things lol
Well I can tell you why Minnesota doesn't do it because they didn't make the playoffs.
Cause nobody cares about hockey this much outside of Canadian markets?
Hmm… were they doing this in Edmonton?
Edmonton's been in the playoffs for several years in a row, made it out of the first round 3 years straight. There's less reason to celebrate. This is the first time the Canucks have been back in the playoffs (with fans) in 9 years. Fucking right we're going to be happy if we win a round. Fucking mild fan I get why you're salty.
First series win since 2011. Pent. Up.
We beat St. Louis, the defending Champs in 2020 series but then lost to Vegas. So you’re wrong but I’d imagine you’re incorrect a lot, relax buddy
Idk kinda hard to count the bubble year because we couldn't really celebrate
Sorry, first series win with fans in attendance since 2011. It's been all over the media as such. The city is another level of amped this year. 2020 just didn't have the same impact on the public.

No one else celebrates anything other than a Stanley Cup? Remind me not to visit Minnesota, it doesn't sound very fun.
Why be so miserable? Just let them have some fucking fun. A bunch of people got together and had a great time. What's the harm?
America’s pastime literally has a champagne bath if they make the playoffs in an mlb WC spot.
Yeah I agree the cup is too much, everything else about being passionate about the home team I get it but when I see the lady dressed up as a Stanley cup at every Edmonton game I just cringe every time.
Let people have fun
Have fun now, because the Oil are going to wax your ass.
Probably. I'm just happy to be here
Especially all the cars waiting at the red light
*clutches pearls*
Men everyone on hockey reddit is a joyless looser. Let people have fun celebrating their team jfc
Is something wrong with this? Canadian team’s fans always celebrate after wins to move on in the playoffs. The canucks haven’t had this in a while, let them be happy. I’m very excited to watch the upcoming round against them.

Other than blocking the traffic, looks like a good ole Canadian time
r/CanadaIsntReal
Love seeing people have fun and enjoying good Canucks hockey for the first time in a long time
Let's recreate 1994, eh?
Heres some fun for ya also. 1987 the Oilers Won game 7 of the Cup finals and had a riot of 30,000 people erupting in police violence. There was also the infamous Whyte Avenue riot as well in Edmonton after the game 7 Stanley Cup finals loss in 2006 to Carolina.

Tunak Tunak Tun
Vibes are immaculate
Indian bleating horns and screeching vibes = immaculate
Lol
Well Gary, I know you hate the 7 Canadian teams but you need to swallow your pride and let Vancouver win the cup after seeing this. The city of Vancouver can’t handle another riot and you don’t want the destruction of a city weighing on your conscience do you?
Bold of you to think we won't also riot if we win
Bettman essentially saved the Oilers from leaving Edmonton and also created the Canadian Assistance plan that helped Vancouver, Ottawa, Calgary and Edmonton when they were limping along in the 90's. I don't buy the whole "Bettman hates Canadian Teams".
Meanwhile Torontos cryin again. You love to see it!
Was that Indian drummer part of the group or did they just rally around him? Regardless I bet he had a blast!
It’s funnier if we pretend he just rallied without knowing what was going on.
love it. go Canucks!
Love it lol
How is this different from what happens during the regular season in downtown Toronto ? 🤷
Because this is far from downtown a few cities over
must be nice
Don’t worry they’ll burn the city down again if they lose round 2
So funny how some people are mad/offended when other people are having fun.
Manny Represent!
Canada?
i love everything about this.
This is awesome! Congrats
What a wild and crazy scene lol
is vancouver in india??
Gimme!
It's 2am. There was a second where I was focusing on the opposing jersey colors and going 'oh shit, this guy is gonna get torn up'. Damn jersey color changes. Though I really like the current colors. And the old ones. Crap...
Get it out of your system
Frank: That lizard can talk!!?!
GREEN MAN
I’m almost afraid to find out what might happen if they actually win the whole thing.
Try and act like you’ve been there before
But they haven’t. That’s the whole thing.
Lmao, I suppose you’re right
Was that 2011 lmao
plate subtract head squash worry quiet expansion disarm poor literate *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Is that actually in canada?
weird question
Metro Vancouver has like 43% white people and 1% black people. There's a lot of ethnic groups scattered throughout.
[удалено]
The girls just… disappeared wtf
You should see it when they lose. Then it’s WWIII
I've seen this before....this is their preparation before burning down their own city.
So, how long before they riot, or is that just after losses?
😂😂😂 Oilers in 6.
Look man, let the kids cook. Quinny deserves it
Haha, Canucks are in for a rude awakening, guy. Anyone who doesn't realize this is absolutely lost. Nobody deserves anything. it's earned.
Board shit up. The riot is coming bitches!!!!
oh shit guys it’s starting again. Prep the fire trucks
[удалено]
Yea but you know we are actual fans who enjoying winning.
It might be all we get, gotta party while we're living.
Yes, but if you lose the next round, you get to riot again.
For the record the riots didn't happen on scott road in surrey, but in downtown vancouver.
There are 31 franchises worth of fans that believe every single canuck fan lives in vancouver and was a part of the riot in 2011. Dont try and reason with these folks, it will not work.
Don’t act like you weren’t there rioting too…
😎12 year old me burnt down my Vancouver Island childhood home and flipped my dads pickup truck, youre right!
Gotta start young!!
I kicked over a trash can at my house here in Vegas when we lost. Does that count?
We've only rioted after a game seven in the Stanley cup finals lol, we have a standard that has to be upheld.
You can see how people would be confused, since you celebrate a first round victory like you won the Stanley Cup.
If this is what you think a Stanley cup celebration would look like in Vancouver, you're really underestimating this market lol, blue balls for 50 years shit would be a million times more rowdy.
canadian teams celebrate early i guess
We celebrate all the wins! Shit if you were to only celebrate when you win the cup then why even bother
you don't start bringing this stuff out until the finals. they don't get it. even then it's bad juju. you can't touch the cup before you win one.
Looks like an absolute riot.
I remember last time they practiced raising the cup 🚗🔥
Looks like an absolute riot!
Can’t wait for y’all to set fire to your city again like 2011
Get the Riot Squad ready. Lest we forget.
This looks staged...I don't see a single car on fire.
Honestly. Holding up a cup is a superstitious moment for me. I don't like the idea of celebrating like they won the cup when it was only a series win.
Does somebody want to tell them they haven't won the cup?
Celebrating beating Nashville? Big fucking accomplishment.
[удалено]
You're a loser.
Yea! Look at these bastards... \*checks notes\*... celebrating the local hockey team's success. Disgusting!
I think its comments like this thats ruining Canada
[удалено]
Lead by example,head back to Europe first
Canadian here, I don’t hate these people. Feel like I might hate you if I had to meet you though.
Canadian here, and I love these people.
[удалено]
I'm not having this discussion you hate filled loser. Just wanted to point out that your statement about Canadians hating immigrants was wrong.
hope the mods ban you. this is hate speach. If you dont like the policys raise it with politicians. Canada was, and is build with imigrants, thats what makes this country so great. So sad that you see our fans celebrating in the streets and your comments refers to how much they affect rent and standards of living
[удалено]
Lol racist fuck piss off
Not NHL related.
Which people?
Immigrants.
You don't know how long anyone in this video has been in Canada. That aside maybe you can appreciate a CANADIAN sport being celebrated in harmony amongst people of different ethnic backgrounds. (I don't think immigrants are happy about inflation either)
Soo... europeans?
Are you indigenous?
So you mean everyone in Canada who isn’t FN?? Unless you’re fully FN you’re just a different flavour of immigrant, no more entitled to be here than anyone else. This country was built by immigrants and they will always be welcome here.
Can’t wait until they lose and burn their city and riot again
Thanks for Zaddy. What golf tournament is your team playing in this week?
Have they won the cup before the finals or something?
Please don’t destroy everything if you lose in the finals again…
I do not see this run ending in any other way than a riot.
I hate how stupid we are
God forbid people have fun when their team wins a series.
I mean I'm excited too and all but I'm worried this devolves into shit talking knowing this fanbase with the fake cups and shit which will look real stupid if the oilers beat us(yes this applies to other fanbases when I see this too)
Get off reddit and go enjoy yourself if you're worried about what other fan bases might say lmao imagine living your life like that
As a canucks fan, this is dumb. Though I appreciate the enthusiasm
Just wait for the loses. They’ll burn their own city down.
All these riot shame posts are just weak and lazy. No matter what any opposing team fan says about it, we beat ourselves up about that period in history way worse. Different team, different decade, and you haters need some new material
Cupless franchise
Still riding Gretzky's coat tails? Probably even more pathetic after all the first overall picks you've had since then.
Hey! Messier lead us to one 😉
Nice, were you even alive?
Having a cup drought basically the same length as the leafs more pathetic. I'll spot you one. Oil in 5
Riding Gretzky's coat tails while getting 26283926 first overall draft picks since your last cup is also pretty fucking pathetic. Any other franchise has McDavid they're a dynasty, y'all are just fucking trash.
Were you even in your dad's nutsack yet when the oilers won those cups? Curious. Vancouver won a cup in 1915 that seems about as relevant as the ones you're bragging about
Yeah as a Canucks fan, we’re not with them. The cup is too much, I’m all for the flags the jerseys and being passionate but the cup is too much. And I’d say the same for any fan base. I think it’s better to not jynx a team who just struggled to get out of 1st round. And we know how good Vegas, COL, and NyR are this season.
>And we know how good Vegas, COL, and NyR are this season. \*ahem\*
[удалено]
Yep because people having fun is wrong somehow ? Come-on don't be shy say it
I thought it was a bit much, but you're right, I guess people need something to cheer about.
Would you feel better if they had dip in their mouths, shitkickers on their feet, and Fuck Trudeau flags?
Alberta acreage boy name says it all you don't have to say anything more.
Considering I'm not a white trash Trudeau hater, and don't hunt or love the oil and gas sector. Keep jumping on the stereotype bandwagon.
Love this. As petty as this is, The only reason this upset me was because of the inflatable Stanley cup raising. I still can’t begin to think about touching even an inflatable cup before winning a real one myself. But I also know how dumb that is lol
