The Stanley Cup finals series between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Boston Bruins had been brutal for both teams, not only physically but also in the mental and emotional aspects as well.
So at the conclusion of the championship series on Monday, it's not surprising that some players unleashed all the frustrations and emotions that had been building inside throughout the series. Unfortunately, others just didn't speak it out with proper decorum.
Dave Bolland, who slotted in a rebound with 59 seconds left to complete a stunning come-from-behind Blackhawks' victory in Game 6, dropped an F-bomb during an interview with CBC right after winning the Stanley Cup.
"Yeah, it was a big one. We never give up as a team. We f-ing die hard, we do the right things. As a great team, we always battle to the end," Bolland said.
But that F-Bomb annihilation did not stop there. Andrew Shaw, who already spewed out foul languages in Game 1, went on berzerk of F-bombs while hoisting the Lord Stanley Trophy.
Ironically, the Blackhawks weren't only the ones talking garbage on Tuesday.
A Bruins supporter prompted NHL.com to find another suitable banner on their site after he apparently 'photobombed' the previous photo showing him flipping the bird behind four celebrating Blackhawks players with a headline "All Chi Wrote."
Meanwhile, the Toronto Sun had sort of a payback to the Bruins by thanking the Blackhawks for beating the Boston franchise in the Stanley Cup Finals.
Toronto fans haven't moved on from the Maple Leafs' meltdown against the Bruins in Game 7 of the first round series. The Leafs had a 4-1 lead midway into the third period when the Bruins came through with an epic rally to progress in the Stanley Cup playoffs.
