Gainey met with reporters after the game to defend oft-maligned defenceman Patrice Brisebois, who was booed every time he touched the puck after the midway point of the second period.
After scoring a goal in the third, Brisebois turned to the crowd and motioned with his hand for them to turn up the volume.
"We don't need those people, we don't want those people, they're jealous people, yellow people," Gainey said of the fans who booed Brisebois. "I think they're a bunch of gutless ********, to be honest."

"Our message to them is to stay away," Gainey said. "We don't need you."
A clearly frustrated Brisebois said he was happy someone was finally sticking up for him.
"I appreciate his support," he said. "I've always said there are people who like me and appreciate me. I play for them, and my friends and family."
