The Oilers fanbase was at least somewhat knowledgeable. That Canucks fanbase had no idea who half the players on their own team were. It was the worst. Only made bearable (and even enjoyable) by the beating, literal and figurative, they received from Boston. The rioting after the loss was so characteristic of that fanbase. Without an opposing losing team to take cheap shots at, they took it out on themselves.
