Shank's Stanley Cup Wrapup

It's pretty much what you'd expect:
Feels like a lost opportunity as Bruins fall in Game 7

No one around here was ready for this.

A Boston team losing a championship game? Impossible.

But it happened. The Bruins were spanked, 4-1, on Garden ice in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final Wednesday. The St. Louis Blues won the first championship in their 52-year history. A Boston hockey season that started in September in Beijing ended in abject disappointment nine days before the start of summer. It was a stunning defeat in an era when we have become accustomed to only good things happening to Boston teams. And it feels like a lost opportunity.

not pretty much...exactly. i wish there was a place i could wager on shank's day-after-a-big-loss column. i'd be rich. he probably has a file on his desktop called "piling on" filled with variations of this garbage. he's the worst.

Probably not - it's so common from him that the odds would probably be 1-100 instead of 100-1. But you are correct; he is the worst, especially knowing that he probably doesn't know the difference between icing and interference.
