The Canucks' loss to the Bruins in the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals still hurts and it always will. So do the 1982 and 1994 Stanley Cup Final losses. The only thing that can appease this damned pain we feel as a Canucks fanbase would be a Stanley Cup win. No drug or booze can really do the trick.
The Canucks can roll into Chicago nowadays and I can say that I barely give a damn about some rivalry between the two teams. I cannot say the the same about Boston.
