Two days ago, a great season came to a sad conclusion for Canucks fans like me. The worst part wasn't the fact that the Canucks lost game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final for the 3rd time in it's history. The day after game 7, now that the season is over, the silver lining for the Canucks is that they have as good a chance as any team to win the Cup in 2012 as all teams are at point zero again.
The saddest thing for me was the destruction caused by so-called Canucks fans that began destroying the city that hosted their hockey parties throughout the playoffs. The madness that transpired after the Canucks' loss has to be on the minds of city planners that have touted the building of public squares in town centres around Burnaby to celebrate special events. Perhaps the scale of the gatherings need to be reduced to allow for better crowd control as one possible solution.
Whatever the solution, we can expect much debate and discussion over the building of the future celebration square at Brentwood Station.
