For the residents in British Columbia who swore they won't be ordering a pie from Boston Pizza any time soon, they can rest easy: Boston Pizza doesn't exist, at least for now.

The Vancouver Sun (among other Canadian media outlets) reported that in a show of support for the hometown Vancouver Canucks, Boston Pizza "rebranded" all 62 of its British Columbia locations "Vancouver Pizza." The Canucks will try and take the Stanley Cup back to Canada in a Finals series against the Boston Bruins that begins on Wednesday.

The restaurant chain, which is one of Canada's top casual dining brands has more than 340 restaurants across the country according to its website, triggered the move almost immediately after the Bruins beat the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 7 of the East finals on Friday night and will maintain the brand until the series is over.

According to Toronto's The Globe & Mail, Vancouver mayor Gregor Robertson approves of the company's move.

"I think it's great. I think it's fantastic to see business and community coming up with creative ways to support our Canucks and to respond to the fever for the cup right now. It's great to see that and I think they're going to sell a lot more pizza with the Vancouver brand on it."

This is the second time this postseason the company has made a regional name switch. Niamh Scallan of The Province notes the chain temporarily renamed its 26 restaurants in the Montreal area to "Montreal Pizza" in April when the Canadiens played the Bruins in a seven-game series in the first round of the Eastern Conference Finals.
