The eight goals scored by Vancouver is the lowest number of goals scored by any team in a full seven-game series in NHL history. It was the fourth consecutive Stanley Cup Final in which the road team won the Stanley Cup. The Final marked the first time that two francophone Canadian head coaches, Claude Julien of Boston and Alain Vigneault of Vancouver had coached the opposing finalists. Both coaches also had nearly identical backgrounds. Both had grown up near Ottawa, both had played together with the Salt Lake Golden Eagles, both had coached the Hull Olympiques and Montreal Canadiens and both had won Coach of the Year honours. The two were friends, but that changed for the Final. According to Julien, "To be able to get through all that and meet in the final is great.

The entire game was seen as a duel between the two opposing goaltenders; both Vancouver's Roberto Luongo and Boston's Tim Thomas were Vezina Trophy finalists for the 2010–11 season. Thomas stopped 33 of 34 shots while Luongo made 36 saves for his third shutout of the 2011 playoffs. Both of Luongo's two previous shutouts of the 2011 playoffs had also occurred in a game one (a 2–0 victory against Chicago in the first round, and a 1–0 victory against Nashville in the second round).

June 2, 2011 Both teams killed off all penalties in the game, including a five-on-three power play Boston had in the second period, and a double minor high-sticking penalty called on Vancouver's Daniel Sedin in the first. At the end of the first period, Vancouver's Alex Burrows was called for a double minor roughing penalty on Boston's Patrice Bergeron, while Bergeron also got a roughing minor. Replays showed that Burrows could have bit Bergeron's finger, but the evidence was inconclusive. Despite Bergeron's pleading to the referees, no additional penalty was assessed to Burrows. However, despite biting being a suspendible offense, Burrows did not receive a suspension from the NHL on the grounds that no conclusive evidence that Burrows actually bit Bergeron could be found.https://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/nhl/burrows-won-t-be-suspended-by-nhl-1.1032225 Burrows won't be suspended by NHL CBCSports.ca CBC/Radio-Canada June 2, 2011 June 2, 2011https://www.si.com/nhl/2011/06/16/16-0nhls-season-of-mayhem NHL's Season of Mayhem si.com Sports Illustrated Si Staff June 16, 2011 October 27, 2024https://www.nbcsports.com/nhl/news/video-milan-lucic-gets-the-final-say-in-taunting-alex-burrows Video: Milan Lucic gets the final say in taunting Alex Burrows nbcsports.com NBC Sports Joe Yerdon June 6, 2011 November 27, 2024 Scoring summary Period Team Goal Assist(s) Time Score 1st None 2nd None3rd VANRaffi Torres (3)Jannik Hansen (5) and Ryan Kesler (12) 19:41 1–0 VAN Penalty summary Period Team Player Penalty Time PIM 1st VANDaniel SedinHigh-sticking – double minor 04:03 4:00 BOSChris KellyHigh-sticking 08:47 2:00 VANAlex BurrowsHolding 10:18 2:00 BOSBrad MarchandHolding the stick 13:25 2:00 BOSPatrice BergeronRoughing 20:00 2:00 VANAlex Burrows (served by Raffi Torres)Roughing 20:00 2:00 VANAlex Burrows Roughing 20:00 2:00 2nd VANKevin BieksaHigh-sticking 00:28 2:00 BOSDavid KrejciCross-checking 04:00 2:00 BOSDennis SeidenbergKneeing 09:28 2:00 BOSRich PeverleyHooking 09:54 2:00 VANAlex BurrowsTripping 10:02 2:00 BOSPatrice BergeronTripping 17:50 2:00 3rd None Shots by period Team 1 2 3 Total BOS 17 9 10 36 VAN 12 8 14 34 Game two Boston Bruins Vancouver Canucks Rogers Arena June 4 2–3 2 1 www.nhl.com/gamecenter/bos-vs-van/2011/06/04/2010030412 In the second-fastest overtime in Stanley Cup Final history,https://www.nhl.com/gamecenter/bos-vs-van/2011/06/04/2010030412 Burrows scores :11 into OT, Canucks lead 2–0 June 5, 2011 NHL Enterprises, L.

Tim Thomas stopped 40 out of 41 shots, only allowing a third period goal by Jannik Hansen. At 05:07 into the first period, Vancouver defenseman Aaron Rome received a major penalty for interference and a game misconduct for a blindside hit to the head of Boston forward Nathan Horton. Horton was taken off the ice on a stretcher and was then transported to a hospital for further observation and was later diagnosed with a severe concussion, and he would not return for the remainder of the series. The Bruins did not score on the ensuing five-minute power play. Following a disciplinary hearing on June 7, Rome was given a four-game suspension for the late hit which assured that he'd miss the remainder of the 2011 playoffs, the first multi-game suspension in the history of the Stanley Cup Final. Rome and the Canucks maintained that the play was a good hit that went bad, but the NHL determined that the hit came more than a second after Horton gave up the puck. The NHL considers a hit to be late if it comes more than half a second after a player gives up possession.http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=565103 https://web.archive.org/web/20110609234237/http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=565103 dead June 9, 2011 Rome suspended for four games for late hit June 7, 2011 June 7, 2011 Shawn P.

Vancouver riots 2011 Vancouver Stanley Cup riot thumb|Fans watching the finals in Vancouver The seventh and final game of the series attracted huge crowds on the streets of Vancouver who gathered to watch the game on outside monitors and cheer the home team on. Shortly before the game ended with the apparent loss for Vancouver, fires were set on West Georgia Street. After the game ended, cars were set on fire and fighting broke out. Soon, a riot was in progress in downtown Vancouver, with police cars set on fire, shops looted and attendant destruction of property. The damage was expected to be greater than the 1994 Vancouver riots that occurred after Vancouver lost the Stanley Cup Final in seven games to the New York Rangers.
