From the Vancouver Courier – "several hundred" people will be charged in connection with the game 7 riot, says Jim Chu, though the process of charging everybody may take a couple months yet. 
PassittoBulis has the post up profiling every goal Jannik Hansen scored last season. Seems like all of Hansen’s 9 regular season goals came off rebounds. Hansen’s offensive ceiling is an awful lot higher than this post might lead you to believe, and I hope that next years "Every Goal Scored" series for Hansen features more finishes off of breakaways, and more goals resulting from his high-velocity slap-shot.

If you want to spend seventeen hundred on a brandywine finish Canucks branded foosball table, here’s a link that will allow you to do that.
