    The Bruins are a bunch of hypercrites and they SUCK! Never in my life have I seen such an undeserving champion, until this past year.

      I was disappointed with CBC's clip on Michael Ryder bringing the Stanley Cup to his hometown, Bonavista. I stayed up especially to watch this segment. It was very disappointing as I did not see any of the celebration. The clip was focused on the table and the cup falling to the floor. And a recount of all the abuse that the cup has received over the years. The reporting of this piece of news was sub-standard and reminded me of the National Inquirer instead of the National Broadcast that I was expecting!

    This day belonged to Michael Ryder who wanted nothing more than to share the day and the Stanley Cup with the town and people of Bonavista. We know polititians have no shame especially with an election around the corner. Shame!

    Some people you just can't please because if Dunderdale didn't show up, the same people would still be complaining. Congrats Michael....the province is so proud of you!

      She had to show up you dummy!! She is the rep for the province. Where have you seen an event where the mayor, MHA, Premier etc did not attend an important event relation to their province etc .

      Michael Ryder likely doesn't even know who Kathy Dunderdale, Kevin Aylward or Lorraine Michael are. How did Dunderdale manage to snag a ride on the chopper?
