2010 Winter Olympics - Canada vs United States (Group A)

[Pucks 66]

I had a good laugh when Sasquatch fell over the pile.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Probably while holding a "10" sign.

And throwing roses onto the ice.

[russianswede919293 95]

GREAT GAME!

Where has Rafalski been all year. I think these Olympics will be a huge confidence boost for him.

Playing Brodeur was a huge coaching mistake by Babcock. Fatso has been terrible.

Miller kept the USA in it early, but We are taking over.

Loved the Perry Pronger pile up, if only it had been catfish Crysby instead of Staal, it would have been AWESOME instead of just Awesome.

[Vladifan 680]

Durp, you're doing a GREAT job proving that it's 'just so wrong on every level'. You're part of the problem.

I'm not EVERY fan on here.

And I'm not asking for blood. Just a little REAL pain. Instead of his overacting-type "WAH!" crap which he pulls way too often when he gets nudged out there. It's a wonder he doesn't have whiplash from his head flails alone.

[edicius 3,269]

I think I can speak for everyone when I say, we don't hate Canada or Canadians. We hate the players on their team, players we hate when they're playing for their regular NHL teams. We have nothing against Canada or Canadians.

THIS.

I love Canada. Tim Horton's, the HHoF, Canadian indie music, Windsor bars.

However, I hate Crosby, Niedermayer, Pronger, Iginla and Getzlaf (the only player here I'd welcome on the Wings, mind you).

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

I chuckled at that, glad Staal wasnt hurt because he's the man, but really didnt care about Perry

[betterREDthandead 58]

How can you hate them? They're like the Keystone cops.

NICE.

[Fatal 1]

Most excellent.

[Vladifan 680]

That is between his eyes. Where do you think his head is?

Thank gawd I'd just set my Pepsi down.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Most excellent.

That gif screamed for it.

[Cern 0]

I love Steve Yzerman, and I like Babcock and Iginla alright, but most of the other players on Canada's team can fall off the face of the ******* planet. You should be pissed your team is made up of cheapshot artists and whiney ******* crybabies.

You can say what you want about the attitudes - and I'd probably agree - but the numbers they put up speak for themselves. What is Yzerman supposed to do, put 12 Kris Drapers on the ice and expect them to miraculously become 50-goal players?

[Johnny Diamonds 25]

What's with all the poor sportsmanship? Acting like spoiled brats. It's all the usual suspects as well. All we need now is an Iginla meltdown and some Pronger physics and we'll be all set.

Pronger and Niedermeyer in the locker room as we speak discussing which team USA player they will give the Homer Sandwich to in the 3rd period.

[Vladifan 680]

She wants a hockey stick up his butt, not have his head cleaved off with a machete. One involves blood, the other won't if you use some Vaseline first.

Like, hellleuuooo?

[edicius 3,269]

Playing Brodeur was a huge coaching mistake by Babcock. Fatso has been terrible.

Managing goaltenders really seems to be Babs' weakness. This shows it's not just Wings goaltenders. Brodeur was NOT good against Switzerland. He didn't even have to be good in the shootout. He's been even worse this game, giving up more goals in the same amount of shots - with a period left to play, no less.

PP to start the 3rd? Niedermayer?

[Vladifan 680]

I do believe that is an A++, world-class buuuuuuuuuuuurn.

^ALSO THIS^

[Guest Howard He Do It?!]

Dear Canada,

I don't hate you, just your Olympic hockey team.

HHDI

[Electrophile 3,554]

What is Yzerman supposed to do, put 12 Kris Drapers on the ice and expect them to miraculously become 50-goal players?

Absolutely not. He is supposed to put the best players he can on the ice to win his country the gold medal. No one is blaming Steve for that, he's doing his job.

That doesn't mean we have to suddenly like and respect players we hate 99% of the time just because it's the Olympics.

[Vladifan 680]

Just another America hater.

I have no idea what your point is here, but it does not belong in this thread.

[EuroTwin 240]

How can you hate them? They're like the Keystone cops.

I LOVE YOUUUUU! <3 <3 <3 <3

You just made my night... *rightclicksave*

Start of the 3rd! Go USA!

[Electrophile 3,554]

I can't stop watching that gif. It's like the gif that was floating around during the Cup Finals in '08 of Fleury taking a dive coming out onto the ice before the game. It's freakin' hysterical!

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Canada pp coming

[Guest Lidstromboli]

1 out of every 10 Marty Barry posts make sense, i would think

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Nevermind, Crosby going off! USA pp!!

[edicius 3,269]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! High sticking on Crosby. Good job, refs.

[Xitium 272]

Crosby in the sin bin for a careless highstick.
