Dejected Vancouver hockey fans overturned some cars and fist-fights broke out outside the Canucks' arena, where the game had been telecast, after Vancouver lost the Stanley Cup finale to the Rangers tonight.

About 10,000 disappointed fans streamed out of bars and homes onto downtown streets just after the game ended. Some of the fans simply had tears in their eyes.

"I'm so upset, I'm devastated," said Ross Andersen. "They came so close and now it's all over."
